The M. xanthus strains used in this study were DK10416 (ΔpilB) (26 (link)), YZ603 (ΔdifE) (50 (link)), YZ1674 (ΔpilB att::MxpilB) (51 (link)), and YZ2232 (ΔpilB att::MC3pilB) (31 (link), 63 ). Unless stated otherwise, they were maintained and grown on Casitone-yeast extract (CYE) agar plates or media at 32°C. Conditions and procedures for the expression and purification of the CtPilB protein were as previously described (31 (link)).
All stock solutions of quercetin used in this study were prepared by dissolving quercetin hydrate (ACROS Organics) in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO; Fisher Biotech). Unless otherwise stated, 10× stocks were prepared for each concentration of quercetin in DMSO before their use in experiments. Controls without quercetin had the same concentration of DMSO as those with quercetin. The Selleckchem kinase library L1200 used for the HTS had been reformulated to be 1 mM stocks in DMSO.
GraphPad Prism v 7.04 was used for curve fitting and data analysis. Student’s t test was used for statistical analysis.

Silver nitrate (AgNO3, 99.85%), aluminum chloride (AlCl3, 99%), and quercetin hydrate 95% were purchased from Acros Organics, Waltham, MA, USA. The strains of bacteria were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) and cultured according to the guidelines of the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute, including ATCC 25922 Escherichia coli (E. coli), ATCC 27853 Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), and ATCC 25923 Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). Two tested drug-resistant Gram-negative bacterial strains, including colistin- and imipenem-resistant A. baumannii, were manually induced until the concentration of antibiotic reached 32 µM at Tzu Chi University, Hualien, respectively. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA107568) was kindly provided from a patient sample at Tzu Chi Hospital.

Micellar Quercetin Formulation for Enhanced Bioavailability

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Quercetin hydrate (minimum purity of 95%) was acquired from Acros Organics (Madrid, Spain) and ethylene oxide-propylene oxide block copolymer Pluronic F127 (average molecular weight 12.6 kDa, hydrophilic-lipophilic balance 22) was provided by BASF (Ludwigshafen am Rhein, Germany). For the micellar formulation, the supercritical antisolvent precipitation technique was used to produce quercetin/Pluronic F127 particles (P-quercetin) as previously described [31 (link)]. The resulting Pluronic-quercetin formulation had a relative composition of 50%/50% w/w Pluronic F127/quercetin. For the natural quercetin formulation, quercetin was suspended in 0.16% Tween 20 in saline, as previously described [25 (link),26 (link)].

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.
