Edta coated

Manufactured by Greiner
Sourced in Austria

EDTA-coated lab equipment is designed to prevent sample clotting. EDTA, or Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, is a chelating agent that binds to calcium ions, inhibiting the coagulation cascade. This product is suitable for various applications that require uncoagulated samples, such as blood analysis and cell culture studies.

Complete Blood Count Analysis in Mice

The generation of Stk4 KO mice and the flow cytometry experiments follow the protocols that we have described elsewhere [11 (link)]. For the Complete Blood Count (CBC) analysis, blood was collected into EDTA-coated MiniCollect blood collection tubes (Greiner Bio-One, Kremsmünster, Austria, catalog #VG-450474) via submandibular vein puncture from unanesthetized mice. 40 μL of blood from each mouse were aliquoted and analyzed by a Hemavet 950FS (Drew Scientific, Oxford, CT, USA). Using an electrical impedance and focused flow cell system, the Hemavet quantified the total number of white blood cells, eosinophils, neutrophils, basophils, and lymphocytes.

Evaluating Metabolic Changes in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mice of different experimental groups were weighed daily until the end of the first week and every two days until the end of the experiment. The body weight change was calculated and recorded as mean ± standard deviation (SD). Blood was collected in EDTA coated K2 tubes (Greiner Bio-one, Monroe, NC) from all groups at the end of the study and different parameters were measured. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels were assessed as indicator of liver damage and serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen as indicators of kidney function. WBC and platelets were also counted. All these parameters were measured using the kits mentioned in the materials section and used accordingly to the manufacturer’s instructions.

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.
