Coomassie plus protein assay reagent kit

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States

The Coomassie Plus Protein Assay Reagent kit is a colorimetric assay used to quantify the total protein concentration in a sample. The kit contains a reagent solution that changes color in proportion to the amount of protein present in the sample. This allows for the determination of the total protein content through spectrophotometric analysis.

Quantification of LL-37-Induced Protein Changes

Cells were treated with LL-37 (0, 8, 16 µM) and lysed in radioimmunoprecipitation buffer containing 50 mM Tris, 150 mM NaCl, 0.5% deoxycholate, 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate, 2 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, 0.1% Triton X-100, 10% glycerol, 1 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride and 10 μg/ml aprotinin. The Coomassie Plus Protein Assay Reagent kit (#23238, Thermo Fisher Scientific) was used to quantify the proteins in the cell lysates. The total cellular proteins in the lysates were then separated by 8–15% sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes. After conjugation with primary and secondary antibodies, immunoreactive bands were visualized using a chemiluminescence substrate. The intensity of each band was quantified using ImageJ software (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, United States) and normalized to ß-actin housekeeping control.

Preparing Crude Worm Antigen and Excretory-Secretory Product

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Crude worm antigen (CWA) was prepared by homogenizing adult worms in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) containing 1% Triton X-100. After homogenization, the homogenate was sonicated on ice at an amplitude of 30% with a 9-s on/off pulse using an ultrasonic processor (Vibra-cell, Sonics, Newtown, CT, USA). The CWA was centrifuged at 12,000×g at 4 °C for 30 min and the clear supernatant was transferred into several microfuge tubes, followed by storage at − 80 °C until use. Excretory-secretory (ES) product was prepared from cultured adult worms in RPMI-1640, as described previously [26 (link)]. The protein concentration was measured using Coomassie Plus Protein Assay Reagent Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Primer sequences for X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis, c inhibitor of apoptosis -1, c inhibitor of apoptosis -2, caspase-6, and caspase-7 mRNA and β-actin Western blot analysis for inhibitor of apoptosis proteins, caspase-6, and caspase-7
All the cells were lysed in lysis buffer, and the total protein concentration was estimated by Coomassie Plus Protein Assay Reagent kit (ThermoFisher, USA). Thirty microgram proteins from the cell lysate were separated with sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride membrane film by semi-dry blotting method (Merck, New Jersey, USA) probed with respect to the primary antibodies for 15 h at 4°C. Horseradish peroxidase secondary antibodies were added and the membrane was stripped after 3 h of an incubation at 25°C. Bands were estimated in ChemiDoc XRS + by utilizing Image Lab programming (Bio-Rad) and standardized with β-actin (1:5000).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
