Orange QDs were conjugated to anti-A (clone: 9113D10, lot: 71EF01EA; Fresenius Kabi) or anti-B (clone: 9621A8, lot: 08D01A21; Fresenius Kabi) by using N-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) (Fluka) and N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide sodium salt (Sulfo-NHS) (Sigma Aldrich Co.) as coupling reagents. We first adjusted the pH of 2 mL of CdTe QDs (3 μM) to 5.5 by using MSA at 4.9% (w/v). We then added 1 mL of EDC (at 0.4 mg·mL−1) and, after 5 minutes, 1 mL of Sulfo-NHS at 1.1 mg·mL−1 to the QDs sample.7 (link),21 Fifteen minutes later, we added 40 μL of anti-A antibody or anti-B antibody to the system (the same antibodies described in the section “Blood samples”).
Green QDs were also covalently bonded to the UEA I lectin, also known as anti-H, obtained from Sigma Aldrich Co. (reference L5505) by using EDC and Sulfo-NHS. To this end, we used 1 mL of green QDs (4.5 μM), 1 mL of EDC (at 4.0 mg·mL−1), and 1 mL of Sulfo-NHS (at 10 mg·mL−1). At the end of the process, we inserted 200 μL of UEA I (at 0.5 mg·mL−1) into the system.
Prior to RBC labeling, systems were incubated with 50 μL of Tris base (at 1 mM) for 2 hours under slow agitation. This procedure was used to quench the free carboxyl groups of nonconjugated QDs to minimize unspecific targets.

The buffer was changed to 0.02 M 2-(N-morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid sodium salt (MES) (Sigma Aldrich) and 0.15 M NaCl before crosslinking. Crosslinking agents were N-(3dimethylaminopropyl)-N'-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) and Nhydroxysulfosuccinimide sodium salt (sulfo-NHS) (Sigma Aldrich) in 0.02 M MES and 0.15 M NaCl for 16 hours. EDC was either set to 100 mM or 200 mM, and the concentration of sulfo-NHS was kept constant at 50 mM. Glucono-δ-lactone (GDL) (Sigma Aldrich) was used to dissolve the template core at pH 6.5 in a ratio GDL:CaCO3 2:1. For removal of impurities after crosslinking, dialysis with a membrane of 8-10 kDa in pore size was used (Spectrum Laboratories Inc., USA).

Citrate-capped gold nanoparticles with a diameter of ca. 40 nm were synthesized with the Turkevich method as previously described. (25) The nanoparticles were then modified with 0.1 mM thiolated polyethylene glycol (PEG) molecules ending in carboxylate moieties [poly(ethylene glycol) 2-mercaptoethyl ether acetic acid, Mn 2100, Sigma] overnight. The resulting pegylated nanoparticles were concentrated and washed with water five times via centrifugation at 8000 rpm for 6 min. The nanoparticles were finally suspended in 0.5 M 2-(Nmorpholino)ethanesulfonic acid (Sigma) adjusted at pH 5.5. Carboxylate moieties around the nanoparticles were then transformed into sulfo-NHS esters by adding 1 mg of N-(3dimethylaminopropyl)-N′-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (Sigma) and 2 mg of N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide sodium salt (sulfo-NHS, Sigma) for 20 min. Then, the nanoparticles were pelleted by centrifugation, and the supernatant was substituted for a solution containing 1 mg•mL â€"1 avidin in 0.1 M phosphate buffer pH 7.4. After 1 h, unreacted sulfo-NHS esters were capped with 0.1 M glycine and 10 mg•mL â€"1 bovine serum albumin (BSA) for 30 min. The nanoparticles were then washed five times with phosphate buffer saline (PBS) containing 0.1% Tween-20 (PBST). The resulting avidincovered nanoparticles were kept at 4 °C until used.

The binding affinity of the HA ectofusion immunogens to conformation-specific antibodies was measured using SPR (ProteOn XPR36 Protein Interaction Array V.3.1, Bio-Rad). First, the GLM sensor chip was activated using EDC and sulfo-NHS (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA), followed by Protein G (10 μg/mL) (Sigma) immobilization in various channels for 300 s (30 μL/min) in the presence of 10 mM sodium acetate buffer (pH 4.0) and then using 1 M ethanolamine excess sulfo-NHS esters quenched. Nearly 1000 response units (RU) of monoclonal antibodies MAb2077, C05, and CR9114 were immobilized at a flow rate of 5 μg/mL for 100 s. Five different concentrations (100 nM, 50 nM, 25 nM, 12.5 nM, and 6.25 nM) of HA ectofusion immunogens were passed at a flow rate of 30 μL/min for 100 s over the chip surface, followed by a dissociation step of 200 s. After each kinetic assay, the chip was regenerated in 0.1 M Glycine-HCl (pH 2.7), and kinetic parameters were obtained by fitting the data to a simple 1:1 Langmuir interaction model using Proteon Manager.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Sodium alginate with an average molecular weight of 280kDa (high-MW) was obtained for these studies (LF20/40, FMC Biopolymer). Molecular weight of alginate was modulated as has been described previously18 (link). Briefly, Mid- or low-MW alginate was prepared by irradiating high-MW alginate with a 3 or 8 Mrad cobalt source, respectively. mid-MW alginate had an average molecular weight of 70 kDA and low-MW alginate had an average molecular weight of 35 kDa. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) coupled alginate was prepared following a previous protocol18 (link). Briefly, one chain of low-MW alginate was covalently coupled to an average of two PEG-amine molecules (5 kDa, Laysan Bio) using carbodiimide chemistry. Specifically, at a pH of 6.5, 500 mg of alginate was dissolved in 50 ml of 0.1 M MES (2-(N -morpholino) ethanesulfonic acid, Sigma-Aldrich) buffer. Then 13.7 mg of Sulfo-NHS, 24.2 mg of EDC (N -(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N0 -ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride, Sigma-Aldrich), and 295 mg of PEG-amine was mixed with the solution, and the reaction was allowed to proceed for 20 h. The resulting solution was dialyzed for three days in deionized water (molecular weight cutoff of 10 kDa). Finally, the product was purified with activated charcoal, sterile filtered, frozen and lyophilized.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The covalent modification of PLGA nanoparticles with affibody was carried out using EDC (Sigma, Darmstadt, Germany) and sulfo-NHS (Sigma, Darmstadt, Germany) as crosslinking agents via the formation of amide bonds between the carboxyl groups of affibody and amino groups of PLGA. An amount of 100 µg of affibody (purified as described by us previously [17 (link)]) in 100 μL of 0.1 M 2-(N-morpholino) ethanesulfonic acid buffer, pH 5.0 was activated with 50 µg EDC and 25 µg sulfo-NHS for 45 min at 15 °C. Next, the activated affibody ZHER2:342 was quickly added to 1 mg of PLGA nanoparticles in 300 μL of borate buffer (0.4 M H3BO3, 70 mM Na2B4O7, pH 8.0) and sonicated for several seconds. The reaction was carried overnight at room temperature, followed by particle washing from non-bound proteins by triple centrifugation at 4000× g for 10 min.

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.
