Free radical scavenging activity of the E. alba was estimated using DPPH assay with some modifications from Ref. [19 (link)]. The stock solution of DPPH (0.3 mM) was prepared in ethanol, and 10 μL of plant sample or gallic acid as standard was mixed with 190 μL of DPPH in a 96-well plate with subsequent incubation for 30 minutes in dark.

Growth analysis was carried out as previously described with minor modifications68 (link). All strains were first grown overnight in LB broth at 37 °C, harvested the following day, diluted to an OD630 of 0.1 in 200 µl of fresh LB, and placed into 96 well plate. Growth curves were carried out at 37 °C shaking and data was recorded with the BioTek ELx808IU plate reader, measurements taken at OD630 every 30 min.

Cell proliferation was measured by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8, Dojindo Molecular Technologies Inc., Shanghai, China). OV and OV_PTX cells were plated in 96-well plates with a density of 5 × 103 cells per well and incubated for 24 h. PTX was added with increasing concentrations from 0.001–10 μmol/mL to cells, which were then incubated for 48 h. The cells were then incubated with 10 μL of CCK-8 per well for 1 h at 37 °C. Absorbance was measured at a wavelength of 450 nm using a Bio-Tek ELX808IU absorbance microplate reader (Bio-Tek Instruments Inc., USA).

The antibacterial activity against the multidrug-resistant S. aureus ATCC BAA-44, S. aureus ATCC 25923, S. aureus ATCC 6538, and S. aureus coagulase (−) of the C. cajan seed extracts was evaluated by agar-well diffusion assay. Overnight grown bacterial culture was inoculated in 5 mL Mueller–Hinton Broth (MHB) and adjusted to an optical density of 1 × 106 CFU/mL as measured using a microplate reader (ELx808IU/BioTek Instruments, Inc., Winooski, VT, USA). The bacterial suspensions were then mixed with 1% Mueller–Hinton Agar (MHA) and dispensed into sterile Petri dishes. The mixture was allowed to solidify, and wells were made using a sterile borer. The seed extract (20 mg/well), DMSO (negative control) and tetracycline 5 mg/mL (positive control) were dispensed into the wells. The plates were then incubated at 37 °C for 18–24 h.

DNA Synthesis Inhibition Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Analysis of DNA synthesis was measured by a Cell Proliferation ELISA, BrdU (colorimetric) kit (Roche, Mannheim, Germany). This immunostaining procedure is based on measuring the incorporation of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) into nuclear DNA in place of thymidine during the S-phase of the cell cycle using specific anti-BrdU antibodies [25 (link)]. Hence, such method provides a colorimetric measurement for DNA synthesis inhibition ratio of the carcinogenic cells. Firstly cells were seeded into 96 well flat-bottomed microtiter plates at a density of 2 × 103. The tumor cells were cultured in the presence of various doses of compounds 2, 3, 5, 9, 10 and cisplatin. Microtiter plates were incubated at 37 °C in a 5% CO2/95% air humidified atmosphere for 24 h. Cells were labeled with 10 µL BrdU solution for 2 h and then fixed. Anti-BrdU-POD (100 µL) was added and incubated for 90 min. Finally, wells were washed with BPS and cells were incubated with substrate. Absorbance of the samples was measured with an ELX808-IU Bio-Tek apparatus at 492 nm. All experiments were repeated two times. For each compound dose, dublicate wells were used.

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.
