Amicon ultra 15 ml centrifugal filter units

Manufactured by Merck Group

The Amicon Ultra-15 mL Centrifugal Filter Units are laboratory filtration devices designed for the concentration and purification of macromolecules, such as proteins, peptides, and nucleic acids, from aqueous solutions. The units feature a regenerated cellulose membrane with a specified molecular weight cutoff, allowing the selective retention of the desired molecules while allowing smaller components to pass through during the centrifugation process.

LNPs were formulated as previously described4 (link),5 (link),27 (link), with the lipid components (SM-102, 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, cholesterol, and PEG-2000 at molar ratios of 50:10:38.5:1.5) being rapidly mixed with an aqueous buffer solution containing ABE8.8 or SpRY-ABE8.8 mRNA and either PAH1 gRNA or PAH2 gRNA in a 1:1 ratio by weight in 25 mM sodium acetate (pH 4.0), with an N:P ratio of 5.6. The resulting LNP formulations were subsequently dialyzed against sucrose-containing buffer, concentrated using Amicon Ultra-15 mL Centrifugal Filter Units (Millipore Sigma), sterile-filtered using 0.2-μm filters, and frozen until use. The LNPs underwent quality control for particle size (Z-Ave, hydrodynamic diameter), polydispersity index as determined by dynamic light scattering (Malvern NanoZS Zetasizer) and total RNA encapsulation as measured by the Quant-iT Ribogreen Assay (Thermo Fisher Scientific).

Lipid Nanoparticle Formulation for mRNA Delivery

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
LNPs were formulated as previously described25 (link), with the lipid components (SM-102, 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, cholesterol, and PEG-2000 at molar ratios of 50:10:38.5:1.5) being rapidly mixed with an aqueous buffer solution containing ABE8.8 mRNA and either PAH1 gRNA or PAH2 gRNA in a 1:1 ratio by weight in 25 mM sodium acetate (pH 4.0), with an N:P ratio of 5.6. The resulting LNP formulations were subsequently dialyzed against sucrose-containing buffer, concentrated using Amicon Ultra-15 mL Centrifugal Filter Units (Millipore Sigma), sterile-filtered using 0.2-µm filters, and frozen until use. The LNPs had particle sizes of 69–89 nm (Z-Ave, hydrodynamic diameter), with a polydispersity index of <0.21 as determined by dynamic light scattering (Malvern NanoZS Zetasizer) and 90–100% total RNA encapsulation as measured by the Quant-iT Ribogreen Assay (Thermo Fisher Scientific).

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.
