Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing Protocol

Antibiotic MICs were determined by the broth microdilution method according to the CLSI standard guidelines M07-A8, M100-S20, and M45-P (50 , 51 , 53 ). Meropenem, amikacin, gentamicin, linezolid, and tigecycline were purchased from Sigma Aldrich (Germany). Vancomycin and tetracycline were obtained from Merck (Germany). Clindamycin, ciprofloxacin, lincomycin, and penicillin G were obtained from Applichem (Germany). Ampicillin, chloramphenicol, spectinomycin, streptomycin, and erythromycin were purchased from Carl Roth GmbH (Germany). MICs of the quality control strains S. aureus ATCC 29213 and E. coli ATCC 25922 were recorded on each day for all tested antibiotics and fell within the acceptable range prescribed by the CLSI.

Generating Sterile Cnidarian Polyps

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Preliminary experiments with single and mixed antibiotics (chloramphenicol, neomycin, ampicillin, streptomycin, rifampin [each at 50 mg/liter] and 60 mg/liter spectinomycin) were performed to establish the final protocol for the generation of sterile polyps. The remaining cultivable bacteria were analyzed based on CFU per milliliter on MB and R2A agar plates after 5 days of incubation. Consequently, sterile polyps were generated by treatment of 3-day-starved animals with an antibiotic mixture containing 50 mg/liter each of chloramphenicol, neomycin, ampicillin, streptomycin, and rifampin, and 60 mg/liter spectinomycin (all from Carl Roth, Karlsruhe, Germany) in sterile ASW. After 5 days, absence of cultivable bacteria was ensured by plating polyp homogenate on MB and R2A agar plates. In addition, the genomic DNA of the polyps was used as the template for full-length 16S rRNA gene amplification using GoTaq polymerase with universal primers 27F (5′-AGAGTTTGATCCTGGCTCAG-3′) and 1492R (5′-GGTTACCTTGTTACGACTT-3′). The absence of amplicons in combination with the absence of colonies confirmed that the polyp, early strobila, and late strobila stages were sterile.

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.
