Novex ap chromogenic substrate bcip nbt

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States

Novex® AP Chromogenic Substrate (BCIP/NBT) is a laboratory reagent used for the detection and visualization of alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity in various applications, such as Western blotting, ELISA, and immunohistochemistry. The substrate consists of 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate (BCIP) and nitro blue tetrazolium (NBT), which react with the AP enzyme to produce a purple-blue colored precipitate, indicating the presence and location of the target analyte.

PBMCs were cultured for 24 h with RH, RHΔrop16 or RHΔrop18 strains. Then, cells were lysed in RIPA buffer (Amresco, USA) containing a protease inhibitor cocktail (Amresco) and phosphatase inhibitor (Sigma-Aldrich, Darmstadt, Germany). Equivalent amounts of protein were electrophoresed on 10% SDS polyacrylamide gels and then electroblotted onto 0.45 μm nitrocellulose membranes (10600007, GE healthcare). After blocking with 3% milk protein for 30 min at room temperature, the membranes were incubated with the following primary antibodies: anti-phopho-STAT3 (Tyr 705) (Abcam, UK), anti-phopho-STAT6 (Tyr 641) (Abcam), and anti-IL1β (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, USA). The membranes were then washed three times with PBS containing Tween 20 and incubated with polyclonal goat anti-rabbit IgG conjugated with alkaline phosphatase (Sigma-Aldrich, Darmstadt, Germany) for 1 h at room temperature. Positive reactions were detected using Novex® AP Chromogenic Substrate BCIP/NBT (Thermo Fisher, USA). Densitometry analysis was conducted using ImageJ (Schneider et al., 2012 (link)), and the signal value from each band was normalized using β-actin (Ambion, USA) as the normalization protein. PBMCs from 3 individuals were randomly selected from each group and the normalized protein expression levels were plotted in a histogram.

Cells (2 × 106) were seeded on Petri dishes and induced as described previously. After the incubation time, the cells were detached, and the protein was isolated with RIPA buffer (Sigma-Aldrich) supplemented with protease and phosphatase inhibitor cocktails (Sigma-Aldrich) and 1 mM PMSF (Sigma-Aldrich). Protein concentration was determined by DirectDetect® (Merck Millipore). Thirty micrograms of proteins were separated on 12% polyacrylamide gel (120 V) and transferred on PVDF membranes with wet transfer (100 V, 400 mA, 70 min). Membranes were then blocked in 5% fat-free milk in TBST buffer prior to overnight incubation in 4 °C in the primary antibodies, anti-Akt (#9272S), anti-phospho-Akt (#4060S), anti-p44–42 (Erk1/2, #4695S), anti-phospho-p44–42 (#4370S), anti-SOD1 (#71G8), anti-cleaved PARP1 (#5625, Cell Signaling Technology), and anti-GAPDH (1:1000, sc-59,540, SantaCruz Biotechnology), as a reference. After incubation, the membranes were washed three times with TBST buffer and incubated with secondary antibodies (1:15000, Sigma-Aldrich) for 4 hours at 4 °C. The membranes were washed once again, and the bands were visualized by using Novex® AP Chromogenic Substrate (BCIP/NBT) (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Densitometric analysis was conducted with ImageJ. The experiment was conducted in triplicate.

The protein elution above was loaded onto a Superdex 200 16/60 column equilibrated with a buffer of 50 mM Tris/HCl pH7.5; 150 mM NaCl; 20 mM βME. The column was run at 2 ml/min flow rate, and fractions of 2 ml were collected, and an aliquot was run on an SDS-PAGE. The peak (fractions 101–112) that contained nesprin-2/telethonin complex were pooled and loaded onto a Superdex 75 10/300 column for further purification. The column was equilibrated with the same buffer, and the βME was increased to 100 mM to reduce aggregation. The column was run at a 0.5 ml/min flow rate, and fractions were collected. The complex elutes as a single peak at 10.29 ml. An aliquot of this elution was run onto 8 to 16% SDS-PAGE and blotted to a PVDF membrane. The membrane was first probed with nesprin-2 N3 antibody and developed with HRP substrate (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and visualized on X-ray film. Then the membrane was stripped and then incubated with telethonin primary antibody (sc-25327, Santa Cruz) and a secondary mouse antibody conjugated with alkaline phosphatase, then visualized with Novex AP Chromogenic Substrate (BCIP/NBT) (Thermo Fisher Scientific).

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.
