Gelatin solution

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States

Gelatin solution is a laboratory product that serves as a stabilizing agent and gelling compound. It is a clear, viscous liquid derived from the partial hydrolysis of collagen. Gelatin solution is commonly used in various life science applications to provide structural support and enhance the consistency of samples or solutions.

Human cerebral microvascular endothelial cells (HBEC-5i, ATCC® CRL-3245) and Human-breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 (ATCC® HTB-26) were purchased from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, United States). HBEC-5i cells were cultured as a monolayer on 0.1% gelatin solution (Gibco/Thermo Fisher, United States) coated T-flasks in DMEM:F12 medium (Gibco/Thermo Fisher, United States) supplemented with 10% FBS (Gibco/Thermo Fisher, United States), 1% penicillin/streptomycin antibiotic solution (Gibco/Thermo Fisher, United States), and 40 μg/mL endothelial growth supplement (ECGS) (Sigma-Aldrich, Spain), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. MDA-MB-231 cells were cultured as a monolayer in DMEM medium (Gibco/Thermo Fisher, United States) supplemented with 10% FBS and 1% penicillin/streptomycin antibiotic solution, according to manufacturer’s instructions. Both cells were grown in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 at 37°C (MCO-18AIC (UV), Sanyo, Japan) with the medium changed every other day.

Cultivation of NSCLC and Cardiomyocyte Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
NSCLC cell lines NCI-H1975 and A549 and human foreskin fibroblasts (HFF-1) were purchased from ATCC. NCI-H1975 and A549 cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 (Life Technologies) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Corning) and 1× penicillin‒streptomycin (Gibco). HFF-1 cells were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% FBS (Corning) and 1× penicillin‒streptomycin (Gibco). Primary cardiomyocytes were isolated from neonatal Sprague‒Dawley rats (Zhejiang Academy of Medical Sciences). Ventricles from the heart were sliced into approximately 1 mm sections in Hanks balanced salt solution (HBSS; Gibco). After digestion with collagenase II (0.2 mg/ml; Worthington) and trypsin (0.3 mg/ml, Gibco) for 1 h at 37 °C, cardiomyocytes were collected by centrifugation. Cells were then transferred to a 96-well plate or the biosensor chip previously coated with gelatin solution (Gibco). DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS and 1× penicillin‒streptomycin was used to maintain cardiomyocytes.

Isolation and Expansion of Renal Epithelial Cells from Urine

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Putative renal epithelial cells were collected and expanded from urine with minor modifications from methods previously described 11, 12. Briefly, urine samples were collected from 10 individuals with DS and one individual without DS and centrifuged at 400g for 10 minutes. The pellet was washed in buffer containing 1X Dulbecco's phosphate‐buffered saline (DPBS) with Penicillin/Streptomycin (PS, Hyclone, Pittsburgh, PA, www.gelifesciences.com), 0.5 µg/ml Amphotericin B (Sigma‐Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, www.sigmaaldrich.com). The pellet was resuspended with primary culture media containing Renal Cell Growth Medium (REGM, Lonza, Basel, Switzerland, www.lonza.com), 10% FBS (Gibco, Waltham, MA, www.thermofisher.com), PS, and 0.5 µg/ml Amphotericin B. Cells were then transferred to 12‐well tissue culture dishes coated with 1% gelatin solution (Gibco). During the first 3 days, 1 ml of primary culture medium was added. Starting on the fourth day, most of the medium was aspirated and 1.5 ml of REGM was added. Then, this procedure was repeated every other day until the T21 urine‐derived cells had expanded enough to cover above 70% of the plate.

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.
