CDV Expression in Sf9 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Sf9 insect cells were maintained in SF900II (Life Technologies, San Diego, CA, USA) at 27 °C in cell culture, and CDV H gene was obtained from giant panda/SX/2014. A recombinant Onderstepoort strain expressing green fluorescent protein used for virus neutralization was constructed and generated using a reverse genetic system based on RNA polymerase II for CDV by our laboratory.

Culturing Human Embryonic Kidney and Rat Pheochromocytoma Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cells (#CRL-1572, ATCC, Manassas, VA) were grown in Dulbecco's Modification of Eagle's Medium (DMEM; Mediatech, Inc., Manassas, VA) with 4.5 g/l glucose, l-glutamine, sodium pyruvate, and supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Mediatech, Inc.), 100 U/ml penicillin (Mediatech, Inc.), and 0.1 mg/ml streptomycin (Mediatech, Inc.) in a 5% CO2-humidified incubator at 37°C. PC12 rat pheochromocytoma cells (#CRL-1721, ATCC) were grown in the above medium, except supplemented with 10% horse serum and 5% FBS. SF9 insect cells (#11496015, Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA) were grown in SF900 II (#10902096, Life Technologies) supplemented with penicillin/streptomycin antibiotics on a shaking platform in a room air incubator at 18°C.

Influenza Virus Propagation in Eggs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Sf9 insect cells were maintained in SF900II (Life Technologies, San Diego, CA, USA) at 27 °C in cell culture. Influenza virus A/Aichi/68 H3N2 and A/Anhui/2013 H7N9 provided by Dr. Zhu Hongwei (Ludong University) were propagated in the allantoic cavities of 10-day-old embryonated hen’s eggs at 37 °C for 2 d. Allantoic fluid was harvested and centrifuged at 2000 rpm for 10 min. The viruses were titrated by infection of mice with serial dilutions, and LD50 (50% lethal dose) was calculated using the method of Reed and Muench.

RNAi Knockdown in S2 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
S2 cells were grown in serum free medium (SF900-II, life technologies). Templates for in vitro dsRNA transcription were generated by PCR using oligonucleotides containing T7 RNA polymerase promoter sequences at their 5′ ends (see SI for sequences). dsRNAs were generated by in vitro transcription with T7 RNA polymerase using standard methods. After phenol/chloroform extraction and ethanol precipitation, dsRNAs were added to the medium at a concentration of 10 ug/mL 24h, 48h and 72h before heat shock.

Cultivation of L. lactis and Sf9 cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The L. lactis MG1363 strain was grown at 30°C in M17 broth (Oxoid Ltd., Basingstoke, UK) supplemented with 0.5% glucose (GM17). Sf9 insect cells were maintained in SF900II (Life Technologies, San Diego, CA, USA) at 27°C, and suspension cultures were kept at a 27°C incubator while shaking at 120 rpm. A live canine distemper vaccine (CDV-11 strain) was purchased from Qilu Animal Health Products Co., Ltd. (Jinan, China).

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.
