Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Lovo and HCT116 cells, cultured on aclar-fluoropolymer-sheets (Science Servoces, Munic, Germay) were treated as described with 1 μM or 10 μM Genz for 6 days. Cells were fixed in 2% formic aldehyde/2% glutaric aldehyde/1 mM CaCl2/1 mM MgCl2/100 mM cacodylate buffer pH 7.2, following post-fixation in 1% OsO4, Uranyl en bloc staining (1% uranyl-acetate in 75% ethanol), dehydration in ethanol and Epon-embedding (Serva, Heidelberg, Germany). Ultrathin sections were cut at 50 nm nominal thickness (UCT, Leica, Wetzlar, Germany), contrasted with uranyl and lead and observed with an EM910 (Carl Zeiss Oberkochen, Germany) equipped with a CCD-Camera (TRS, Morenweis, Germany).

Purification and Visualization of FCoV Particles

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
FCoV particles were purified and concentrated by ultracentrifugation using a sucrose cushion that contained 2% (wt/vol) paraformaldehyde to preserve virion morphology. Material from the resuspended pellets was mounted on a Pioloform (Plano, Wetzlar), carbon coated, glow discharged using 400μ copper-rhodium grids, washed with distilled water, and stained using 1% (wt/vol) uranyl acetate. The grids were examined with a Zeiss EM 910 transmission electron microscope at 80 kV. Images were taken using a magnification-calibrated side-mounted charge-coupled-device (CCD) camera (Megaview II; SIS, Muenster, Germany) at an instrumental magnification of ×80,000.

Visualizing ASO Nanoparticle Structures

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ASO solutions were prepared in 0.9% saline at 400 μM concentration and analysed using TEM (EM910 by Zeiss, Germany). The samples were prepared by transferring a drop of ASO solution to a carbon-coated copper grid for 15 min and blotted dry, followed by staining for 3 min with 1% phosphotungstic acid. Samples were analysed at 120 kV.

Nanoparticle Characterization and Drug Loading

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Hydrodynamic diameters, polydispersity (PDI) and zeta potentials (ζ) of NPs were determined by Zetasizer Nano ZS system (Malvern Instruments Ltd., Malvern, UK). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images were recorded using Zeiss EM 910 for morphology analysis.
Drug loading efficiency was determined using HPLC. Briefly, 50 μL of NPs were dissolved in 200 μL acetonitrile, vortexed for 1 min, and sonicated for 10 min. The obtained solution (10 μL) was analyzed by HPLC and drug load was calculated using a standard concentration curve. All measurements were determined in triplicate.

VLP and PsV preparations or tissue were fixed with buffered aldehyde solution (2% formaldehyde, 2% glutaraldehyde, 1 mM MgCl2, 2% sucrose in 100 mM calcium cacodylate, pH7.2), followed by post-fixation in buffered 1% OsO4, graded dehydration with ethanol and resin-embedding in epoxide (12 g glycid ether, 6.5 g NMA, 6.5 g DDSA, 400 μl DMP30, all from Serva, Germany). Ultrathin sections at nominal thickness 60 nm and contrast-stained with lead-citrate and Uranylacetate were observed in a Zeiss EM 910 at 100 kV (Carl Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany) and micrographs were taken with image-plates, scanned at 30 µm resolution (Ditabis micron, Pforzheim, Germany).

Visualizing GFP Expression Complexes

N or the indicated N mutants at a final concentration of 1.5 mg/ml were mixed with an in vitro-transcribed 8-kb single-stranded RNA comprising a Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) expression construct (27 (link)) at a final concentration of 0.15 mg/ml. The sample was 10-fold diluted with 20-mM TRIS, pH 7.5, 150-mM NaCl, and 15 μl of this solution was spotted onto carbon-coated grids. The sample was stained with 2% uranyl acetate and images were acquired on a Zeiss EM910 at magnifications between 12.5 and 31.5 k.

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.
