Nitrogen Utilization Assay Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The bacterial suspensions for the nitrogen use assays were prepared in the same way as for the carbon source but were washed in IF-0a GN/GP Base (1.2X) inoculating fluid (#72268) containing 5 mM potassium phosphate monohydrate, pH 6 (Millipore-Sigma), 2 mM sodium sulfate (Millipore-Sigma) and 20 mM sucrose as the carbon source. The rest of the steps and determination of substrate utilization as a nitrogen source were similar to the ones described above for the carbon source assay.

Purity Quantification of Neonicotinoid Pesticides

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Imidacloprid, clothianidin, and thiamethoxam were purchased from Dr. Ehrenstorfer GmbH (Augsburg, Germany). Purity assays of these pesticides were performed according to protocols developed in this laboratory at the National Metrology Institute of Korea. Details of the purity assay have been described in previous studies (Kim et al. 2013; Lee and Kim 2014) . Briefly, LC/UV analysis for structure-related impurities, Karl-Fisher titration for water content, thermogravimetric analysis for nonvolatile impurities, and head-space GC/MS for residual solvents were performed, respectively, and the chemicals were subsequently used without further purification. The purity of Imidacloprid, clothianidin, and thiamethoxam was determined as (99.5 ± 0.3)%, (99.4 ± 0.3)%, and (99.6 ± 0.1)%, respectively. Isotope analogues, Imidacloprid-d 4 , clothianidin-d 3 , and thiamethoxam-d 4 , were obtained from LGC (Teddington, UK). Ammonium acetate for the aqueous mobile phase was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA). Sodium chloride and sodium sulfate for sample preparation procedure were also purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA). HPLC-grade organic solvents, methanol, and acetonitrile were obtained from Burdick and Jackson (Musekegon, MI, USA). Water was purified with a Millipore Milli-Q system at 18.2 MΩ/cm 2 .

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.
