The PSN-1 is a laboratory instrument designed for the preparation and handling of cell cultures. It provides a controlled environment for the cultivation and growth of cells, tissues, and microorganisms. The core function of the PSN-1 is to maintain the necessary temperature, humidity, and atmospheric conditions required for the optimal development and maintenance of cell cultures.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The cytotoxic activity of compounds 17 was tested against A-549 human lung carcinoma cells, MDA-MB-231 human breast adenocarcinoma cells, HT-29 human colorectal carcinoma cells, and PSN1 human pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells. The four cell lines were provided by the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC): A549 from ATCC CCL-185, MDA-MB-231 from ATCC HTB-26, HT-29 from ATCC HTB-38 and PSN-1 from ATCC CRM-CRL-3211. The concentration giving half maximum inhibitory concentration (IC50) was calculated according to the procedure described in the literature [32 (link)]. Cell survival was estimated using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) algorithm [33 (link)]. Dose-response parameters were determined at three different concentrations of each one of the compounds.

After incubation, the broths were lyophilized and extracted with a mixture of methanol, acetone and water (1:1:0.2 v/v). The dried crude extracts were screened for cytotoxic activity (Fig. 1G in blue) against four tumour cell lines: A549 (ATCC CCL‐185) (lung carcinoma, NSCLC); HT‐29 (ATCC HTB‐38) (colon adenocarcinoma); MDA‐MB‐231 (ATCC HTB‐26) (breast adenocarcinoma); and PSN‐1 (ATCC CRL‐3211) (pancreas adenocarcinoma). All the cell lines derived from human cancer and were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC). Cells were maintained in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM) (except PSN‐1 that was maintained in Roswell Park Memorial Institute 1640 Medium (RPMI)), supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 2 mM l‐glutamine, 100 U ml−1 penicillin and 100 U ml−1 streptomycin at 37°C, 5% CO2 and 98% humidity. For the experiments, cells were harvested from subconfluent cultures using trypsinization and resuspended in fresh medium before counting and plating. Crude extracts are resuspended with DMSO and DMEM and dispensed to culture plates containing the cells (final concentration of DMSO 1% (v/v)) to perform the cytotoxic assay. After 48 h of treatment, cytotoxic activity was measured based on the inhibition of cellular proliferation values in comparison with the control cells (Table S1).

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.
