Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
M. smegmatis was grown in nutritious Middlebrook 7H9 supplemented with 0.5% (v/v) glycerol (Sangon Biotech, Shanghai), 0.05% (v/v) Tween-80 (Sangon Biotech, Shanghai) and 10% (v/v) ADC. MICs were quantified with the resazurin microdilution titration method. Briefly, Middlebrook 7H9 broth was added to 96-well plates to prepare a continuous two fold dilution of rifampicin in triplicate. Each well was inoculated with 105 CFU bacteria for 2–3 days at 37 °C and subsequently mixed with 30 μl 0.01% resazurin (Sangon Biotech, Shanghai) solution to determine the lowest concentration that inhibited bacterial growth. Three different gradients of rifampicin were tested: 600, 300, 150, 75, 37.5, and 18.75 μg/ml; 500, 250, 125, 62.5, 31.25, and 15.625 μg/ml; and 400, 200, 100, 50, 25, and 12.5 μg/ml.

Comparative Cultivation of Fungal and Bacterial Strains

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
This study used strains of P. oxalicum, S. cerevisiae and E. coli (Supplementary Table S2). P. oxalicum strains were cultured on PDA (Becton, Dickinson and Company, Sparks, MD) plates for 5 days at 28 °C to produce asexual spores. Tween 80 (Sangon Biotech Co. Ltd., Shanghai, China) was used to harvest asexual spores for reproduction.
Asexual spores (1 × 108) were cultured on modified minimal medium containing SCS (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA)5 (link), then used for measurement of RSDE and SSDE activities and for RT-qPCR assay. Solid modified minimal medium containing glucose, SCS or PDA were used for investigation of colony and mycelial development.
S. cerevisiae and E. coli strains were grown on yeast extract peptone dextrose (YPD) medium and Luria-Bertani (LB) medium for preservation and/or reproduction, respectively.

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.
