Total S. aureus RNA was isolated using a Blood / Cultured Cell Total RNA Mini Kit (Favorgen Biotech Corp., Ping-Tung, Taiwan). Overnight cultures (4 × 103 CFU/ml) of the tested strains were inoculated into MHB in the presence or absence of Tokiinshi (1 to 5 mg/ml) and incubated with shaking for 10 h. Real-time qRT-PCR was performed using the cDNA prepared by ReverTra Ace (TOYOBO Co., Ltd., Osaka, Tokyo). Primers designed for the qRT-PCR assays are listed in S1 Table [24 (link)]. All samples were analyzed in triplicate, and expression levels normalized against gmk gene expression [25 (link)]. The results are shown as the mean ± SE, which were derived from at least three independent experiments.

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.
