Mouse Plasma Protein Extraction Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The mouse plasma samples were subjected to protein precipitation and solid phase extraction (SPE). To remove plasma proteins, 10μL of the IS working solution ( 500 ng/mL ) was added to 100μL of plasma, 800μL of water, and 100μL of 25% (wt/vol) trichloroacetic acid (TCA), and the mixture vortexed for 10 min. For SPE, the supernatant from protein precipitation was loaded onto an OASIS MCX SPE cartridge (Waters Corporation), which was preconditioned with 1mL of methanol and equilibrated with 1mL of water and allowed to flow by gravity. The cartridge was washed twice with 1mL of 5% methanol, 5% formic acid in water (v/v), followed by vacuum drying for 5 min. Analytes were eluted with 1mL of fresh 20% methanol, 5% ammonia in water (v/v). The eluent was evaporated to complete dryness in a centrifuge evaporator at 50°C. The lyophilized sample was reconstituted with 100μL of 95% ACN/water (v/v, 9/1) with 2% formic acid prior to injection.

Clonidine Oral Liquid Analysis by HPLC

Phosphoric acid 0.1% in water (1.0 mL) was added to the 5 mL-centrifuge tubes containing the clonidine oral liquid samples (1.0 mL). Tubes were vigorously vortexed (20 s) and then centrifuged (2135 g, 15 min). This resulted in a phase separation: part of the vehicle and tablet excipients precipitated. An Oasis MCX SPE cartridge (1 mL/30 mg, Waters, MA, USA) attached to a Cerex 48 positive pressure SPE apparatus (Cerex, GA, USA) was loaded with 800 μL of supernatant. The cartridge was first washed with ammonium formate 100 mM with 2% formic acid in water (1.0 mL) and then with methanol (1.0 mL). Ammonium hydroxide 6% in methanol (1.0 mL) was used for the elution. Eluates were collected in glass tubes and evaporated to dryness in a water bath set at 40°C under a stream of nitrogen gas (TurboVap LV, Biotage, Uppsala, SE). Residues were reconstituted in mobile phase A (200 μL) and injected in duplicate into the HPLC system (Fig 1).

Quantitative Analysis of Illicit Drugs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Benzoylecgonine, amphetamine, methamphetamine and MDMA, as well as the deuterated compounds that were used as internal standards, MDMA-d5 (0.1 mg/mL), methamphetamine-d5, amphetamine-d5 and benzoylecgonine-d3, were supplied by Cerilliant (Round Rock, TX, USA) in the form of 1 mg/mL solution in methanol or acetonitrile. Working solutions were prepared in methanol. LC-MS grade methanol, LC-MS grade formic acid (98 %) and hydrochloric acid (35 %) were purchased from Merck (Darmstadt, Germany). Ammonium hydroxide (25 %) was acquired from Sigma-Aldrich (Steinhem, Germany), while the ultrapure water used was from a Milli-Q system (Millipore). Nitrogen (99.9995 % purity) for sample drying was supplied by Linde Ltd. (Cyprus). Oasis MCX SPE cartridges (60 mg, 3 cc) were purchased from Waters Corporation (Milford, MA, USA).

Quantifying Adduct Uptake in HUVECs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HUVECs were plated on 6-well plates at a density of 30,000 cells/cm2 and treated the next day with 200 ng/mL of isotopically labeled MG adducts (15N5-R,S-CEdG or 15N5-R,S-CEG). At each indicated timepoint, conditioned media was collected, centrifuged to remove cellular debris, and processed via cation exchange solid-phase extraction using Oasis MCX SPE cartridges (Waters, Milford, MA, USA) [9 (link),23 (link),24 (link)]. Additionally, cell pellets were collected and lysed using 10% w/v trichloroacetic acid, and cellular debris was separated via centrifugation for 15 min at 4 °C at 12,000× g. Both the cell pellets and conditioned media were spiked with isotopically labeled internal standards prior to their quantification via LC-MS as previously described [23 (link),24 (link)]. To quantify adduct uptake, cells treated with 15N5-R,S-CEdG used 15N5-S-CEG at a final concentration of 5 ng/mL as an internal standard. Conversely, cells treated with 15N5-R,S-CEG used 15N5-S-CEdG at a final concentration of 5 ng/mL as an internal standard.

Plasma Sample Preparation by PPT and SPE

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Sample preparation was carried out by a combined method of protein precipitation (PPT) and solid-phase extraction (SPE). This method was based on a method published by Li et al, while steps with different conditions or parameters were specially noted here.[30 ]
To each 50 μL of plasma, 10 μL of IS working solution (500.0 ng/mL), 90 μL of 25% (w/v) TCA and 850 μL of water were sequentially added. The mixture was vortexed for 10 min and then centrifuged at 4500 × g for 10 min for PPT. SPE based on mixed-mode cation exchange mechanism was used as the second step of sample preparation, in which Oasis MCX SPE cartridges from Waters (Milford, MA) were used. Processes including conditioning, sample loading, washing and eluting were identical with the published method.[30 ]

Quantification of Plant Hormones

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Plant samples frozen in liquid nitrogen were grounded using motor and pestle. Around 200 mg of samples (shoot or root) was measured from ground powder and extracted with ice cold methanol/water/formic acid (15/4/1 v/v/v) added with isotope labelled internal standards (IS).
Similar concentrations of internal standards (IS) of ABAs, auxins and gibberellins were added into samples and calibration standards. The samples were purified using Oasis MCX SPE cartridges (Waters) according to manufacturer's protocol. The samples were injected on Acquity UPLC BEH C18 column (1.7 µm, 2.1x100 mm, Waters; with gradients of 0.1% acetic acid in water or acetonitrile), connected to Acquity UPLC H class system (Waters) coupled with UPLC-ESI-MS/MS triple quadrupole mass spectrometer for identification and quantification of hormones.
The hormones were measured using MS detector, both in positive and negative mode, with two MRM transitions for each compound. External calibration curves were used for quantification, and calculated through Target Lynx (v4.1; Waters) software by comparing the ratios of MRM peak areas of analyte to that of internal standard. Heat map was generated using the BAR HeatMapper Plus tool (http://bar.utoronto.ca/ntools/cgi-bin/ntools_heatmapper_plus.cgi).

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.
