Nisin Z (2.5% w/w, N5764), Pepsin (P0525000), MTT (M2003), and Cytotoxicity Detection Kit PLUS (LDH) were obtained from Sigma Aldrich (Milan, Italy). FITC Annexin-V apoptosis kit I (BD Pharmigen™, BD Biosciences, and San Jose, CA, USA, 556547) and fetal bovine serum (FBS) were purchased of Cegrogen-Biotech (Germany, A0100-3010). Pen-Strep (10,000 Unit/mL penicillin and 10,000 unit/mL streptomycin) and 0.25% trypsin-EDTA were purchased from Bioidea (Tehran, Iran). RPMI was prepared from GIBCO Laboratories (Grand Island, NY, USA, 11530586). Coumarin-6 and Oxaliplatin were kindly gifted by Professor Valizadeh’s laboratory (TUOMS, Tabriz, Iran). All other chemicals were of analytical grade.

Collagen type I, stannous 2-ethyl hexanoate (stannous octoate, Sn(Oct)2) and MTT were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (Chemical Co., St. Louis, MO). Glutaraldehyde (25% aqueous solution), and all the solvents were purchased from Merck Chemical Co. (Darmstadt‎, Germany). Poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) was synthesized from ε-caprolactone (ε-CL) monomers purchased from Merck Chemical Co. (Darmstadt‎, Germany). Also, fetal bovine serum (FBS), DMEM, Pen/Strep, and trypsin were purchased from Bio idea. Polymer specifications are presented in Table 1.

MG-63 Cell Culture and SEM Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MG-63 cell line cells were cultured in a Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM, Bio-Idea, Iran) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, Bio-Idea, Iran) and 1% Penicillin/streptomycin (Pen/strep, Bio-Idea, Iran) for several passages to reach a stable phenotype. About 10,000 cells were seeded on each sample and were incubated in 37°C and 5% CO2 atmosphere. After 1 and 7 days, samples were washed with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, Bio-Idea, Iran) to eliminate unattached cells and fixed in 2% glutaraldehyde for 30 min at room temperature. After several dehydrations in ethanol (30 min in 50%, 70%, 80%, 90%, and 100% ethanol, subsequently), SEM (Philips XL30, The Netherlands) was used to study cells morphology on the surface.

Isolation and Propagation of Viral Cultures

The CSF sample was inoculated and grown on a human rhabdomyosarcoma (RD) cell line at 37 °C in a 5% CO 2 atmosphere for 5-6 days. The cells were observed for signs of cytopathic effects (CPEs) for 24 h. The medium in each well was then decanted, the wells were washed twice with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, Bio-Idea, Iran), and then the medium was replaced with fresh 1x Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM; Bio-Idea, Iran) supplemented with 10% heat inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS; Bio-Idea, Iran) and 1% penicillin (100 U/mL)/streptomycin (100 mg/ml) (Pen/strep, Bio-Idea, Iran). Subsequently, when the CPEs were observed, suspensions of pure-culture virus were prepared by multiple freezing (-20 °C) and thawing (37 °C) cycles and a final vortexing.

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.
