Characterization of Lentinan-Based Polysaccharides

The ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) spectra and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra of LPs and MLPs were measured by the methods of Han et al. [4 (link)]; periodate oxidation analyses were performed with the method described by Hu et al. [15 (link)]; and atomic force microscope (AFM) images were observed according to our previous method [17 (link)].
The Mw distributions of LPs and MLPs were detected using a HPSEC system mainly composed of a model 510 pump (Waters, Milford, MA, USA), a PL aquagel-OH 40 column (8 μm, 7.5 × 300 mm, Agilent), a multi-angle laser light scattering (MALLS) detector (DAWN HELEOS-II 18, Wyatt Technology Co., Santa Barbara, CA, USA), and a differential refractive index (RI) detector (Optilab rEX, Wyatt Technology Co., Santa Barbara, CA, USA). Ammonium acetate solution (0.2 mol/L) was used as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.7 mL/min. Five milligrams of samples were dissolved in 2 mL ammonium acetate solution, followed by filtration through a 0.22 μm filter for injection. The injection volume was 20 μL and the column temperature was 30 °C.
After having been kept in a vacuum drier for a week, samples (30–40 mg) were put into a 5 mm NMR tube and dissolved in 1.0 mL dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). A Bruker AM 400 MHz spectrometer (Bruker, Rheinstetten, Germany) was used to record 1H NMR spectrum with the operating frequency of 400.13 MHz at 30 °C.

The molecular weight (MW) distributions of LRPs and LRP-phenol complexes were evaluated by the method of Yi et al. [11 (link)] and using a high-performance size-exclusion chromatograph (HPSEC) equipped with a column of Aglient PL aquagel OH. Samples were dissolved in the mobile phase with a concentration of 0.2 mol/L, and then centrifuged at 13,000 rpm for 5 min. The supernatant was filtered through 0.22 μ m film and used for injection. It was eluted by the mobile phase of 0.2 mol/L CH 3 COOHNH 4 solution at a flow rate of 0.7 mL/min and column temperature of 30 °C. The peaks were determined using a multi-angle laser-light scattering detector (DAWN HELEOS-II 18, Wyatt Technology Co., Santa Barbara, CA, USA) and refractive index detector (Optilab rEX, Wyatt Technology Co.).

SEC-MALS Characterization of Proteins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We resolved the protein samples on a Superdex S-200 10/300 analytical gel filtration column (GE Healthcare), pre-equilibrated with 50 mM Tris pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, and 1 mM DTT, at 0.5 ml/min. We performed the measurements using an online Dawn Heleos II 18 angle light scattering instrument (Wyatt Technologies Corp.) coupled to an Optilab rEX online refractive index detector (Wyatt Technologies Corp.) in a standard SEC-MALS format. We used the ASTRA v5.3.4.20 software (Wyatt Technologies Corp.) to determine the absolute molecular mass from the intercept of the Debye plot using Zimm’s model (40 ) and analysed the light scattering and differential refractive index. We determined the protein concentration from the excess differential refractive index based on dn/dc of 0.186 mg/ml. In order to determine the inter-detector delay volumes, band broadening constants and the detector intensity normalization constants for the instrument, we used BSA as a standard prior to sample measurement.

SEC MALS was performed using a Dawn Heleos II 18-angle light-scattering detector coupled with an Optilab rEX refractive index detector (Wyatt Technology) and an inline Superdex 200 10/300 size-exclusion column (GE Healthcare). Experiments were done at an ATIC concentration of 5 mg/ml in SEC buffer (10 mM Hepes, pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, and 1 mM DTT) at room temperature, with a flow rate of 0.5 ml/min.

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.
