Quantifying Non-Cellulosic Polysaccharides

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The composition of non-cellulosic polysaccharides was determined according to Foster et al. (2010) with modifications. Due to shortage of plant material, analysis was performed only for samples harvested at the heading stage and maturity. De-starched AIR material (5 mg) was hydrolysed in 2 M TFA for 90 min at 121 °C. TFA was removed by drying under vaccum. TFA breaks down the cell wall network to release primarily non-cellulosic polysaccharides, and some fractions of cellulose that contain kinks and chain dislocations (amorphous form). The composition of monosaccharides in the filtrate was determined and quantified by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography coupled with integrated pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-iPAD) using Thermo Scientific Dionex ICS5000 as described previously by Głazowska et al. (2018) (link). The system was calibrated with standards (l-Ara, d-Xyl, d-Gal, d-Glc, d-GlcA, and d-GalA) (Sigma). All calculations were done in Chromeleon CDS software.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To determine monosaccharide composition, 3 replicates of cell walls from 10 plants were used. 1 mg of dry de-starched cell wall was hydrolyzed with 2 N trifluoroacetic acid at 120 °C for 2 h. The hydrolysates were dried at 50 °C, re-dissolved in water, and analyzed by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed-amperometric detection using a CarboPac PA-20 column (3 mm × 150 mm; Dionex, Sunnyvale, CA, USA) as described earlier [99 (link)]. Monosaccharides were separated using a gradient of 100 mM NaOH in water at 0.5 mL min−1 under the following conditions: 0–0.05 min—12 mM NaOH; 0.05–26 min—0.65 mM NaOH; 26–46 min—300 mM NaOH; 46–55 min—12 mM NaOH. Monosaccharide standards included L-Fuc, L-Rha, L-Ara, D-Gal, D-Glc, D-Xyl, D Man, D-GalA, and D-GlcA (all from Sigma–Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA). To determine response factors, standard curves were created using mixtures of all standard monosaccharides at different concentrations.

Monosaccharide Composition Analysis of Polysaccharides

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Samples (2 mg) of six polysaccharide components were hydrolyzed with 3 mL 2 M trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) at 110 °C for 4 h. After hydrolysis, hydrolysates were dried with a Termovap sample concentrator, and then 3 mL methanol was added and dried repeatedly three times until the TFA was completely removed. The monosaccharide compositions were determined by a high-performance anion exchange chromatography (HPAEC) system (Dionex ICS-2500, Dionex, Sunnyvale, CA, USA) equipped with a CarboPac™ PA20 column (3 mm × 150 mm, Dionex, USA) and a pulsed amperometric detector (Dionex, USA). The column was eluted with 2 mM NaOH (0.45 mL/min) followed by 0.05 to 0.2 M NaAc at 30 °C. The monosaccharide compositions and content of polysaccharide components were determined using d-Gal, d-Glc, d-Ara, l-Fuc, l-Rha, d-Man, d-Xyl, d-Fru, d-Rib, d-GluA, and d-GalA (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) as the standards.

Leaves of Allium roseum were collected from the region of Monastir (Tunisian Sahel; coordinates: lat 35°73′ N; long 10°76′ E) during the flowing period (Marsh), 2017; next, washed with distilled water and ground by a mixer blender and freeze-dried, with the dry powder stored until used. The botany department (Faculty of Pharmacy of Monastir) identified the plant. Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and monosaccharide standards (D-Gal, L-Fuc, L-Rha, D-Man, D-Xyl, and D-Glc) were purchased from Sigma–Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA).

Habituated stem-cell-like suspension culture used in this study was derived from roots of A. thaliana[17] (link). The cells were grown on an orbital shaker in the dark in full-strength MS liquid media. Commercially available MS salts with vitamins (Duchefa, Haarlem, Netherlands) were prepared and autoclaved prior to the addition of the carbon source. Filter sterilized stock solutions of Suc and the pentose D-(+)-Xyl (Sigma-Aldrich) were added to the liquid media to reach a final concentration of 87 mM. The cells were subcultured every 7 d through harvesting cells by centrifugation for 2 min at 200xg, measuring the packed cell volume (PCV), washing the cells with fresh media and subdividing the culture in additional fresh media with a ratio 1∶2 (Xyl-grown) or 1∶8 (Suc-grown). To estimate the effect of the C-source on the growth, A. thaliana cells, conditioned for growth on either Suc- or Xyl-containing MS media, were subcultured into the respective Suc- or Xyl-containing media and incubated for 7 days in the dark. Every day, samples were taken and the PCV of each sample was estimated after centrifugation for 2 min at 200xg. Subsequently, the media was removed through vacuum filtration and the cells were washed twice using full strength MS-media without C-source. The dry cell pellet was immediately frozen in liquid N2 and stored at −80°C for further analysis.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell wall monosaccharide was determined by HPAEC-PAD of hydrolysed material. A PA20 column (Dionex, USA) was used at a flow rate of 0.5 ml/min. The column was washed with 200 mM NaOH for 10 min before the injection of each sample and then equilibrated with 10 mM NaOH for 10 min.
The elution programme consisted of an isocratic elution with 10 mM NaOH from 0 to 37 min, followed by a linear gradient up to 800 mM NaOH from 37 to 43 min, and finally down to 10 mM NaOH from 43 to 45 min. Monosaccharide standards included L-Fuc, L-Rha, L-Ara, D-Gal, D-Glc, D-Xyl, D-Man, D-GalUA and D-GlcA (Sigma, UK); the standard mixture concentration ranges from 0.001 μg/10 μl to 0.1 μg/10 μl. A standard mixture run was performed before analysis of a batch of samples for verification of the response factors.

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.
