Blood samples were obtained after a minimum of 8 hours of fasting, and all laboratory examinations were performed in the Neodin Medical Institute, Seoul, Korea. Serum ferritin and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3(25[OH]D3) were measured using an immunoradiometric assay with an RIA kit (DiaSorinInc., Stillwater, MN) using a 1470 WIZARD γ-counter (PerkinElmer, Turku, Finland). Blood hemoglobin was measured using an XE-2100D (Sysmex, Tokyo, Japan).

Anthropometric and Blood Measurements Protocol

Anthropometric measurements of individuals that participated in the present study were taken by the trained staff members. Participants wore light, indoor clothing without shoes for the measurement of body weight and height, as previously described (11 (link)). The narrowest point between the iliac crest and the lower border of the rib cage was used to determine waist circumference. The following formula of weight/height2 (kg/m2) was used to calculate body mass index. A standard mercury sphygmomanometer (Baumanometer; W.A. Baum Co., Inc., Copiague, NY, USA) was used to measure systolic and diastolic blood pressure in the right arm. Blood pressure measurements were performed twice with a 5 min interval and the average of the two measurements was used for analysis. Blood samples were collected from the antecubital vein of each participant to measure the white blood cell count. The white blood cell count was measured using an automated hematology analyzer (XE-2100D; Sysmex Corporation, Kobe, Japan).

Biomarker Measurement Protocol

Following blood collection by trained staff members, samples were transported to the Central Testing Institute (NeoDin Medical Institute) for further analysis. White blood cell (WBC) counts were decided using laser flow cytometry (Sysmex XE-2100D). Serum cholesterol was measured enzymatically using chemical analyser (Hitachi 7600; Hitachi, Ltd.). BP was measured three times at 5-min intervals using a standard mercury sphygmomanometer (Baumanometer, WA Baum Co.) Body mass index (BMI) was determined through dividing body weight (kg) by squared height (m2).

Measuring Serum BDNF and Platelet Counts

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We measured serum and not plasma BDNF concentrations as serum measurements have been used more frequently than plasma measurements in previous studies, which improves comparability of our results (serum concentrations combine blood-borne bound and unbound BDNF, and plasma concentrations display only the unbound proportion; Dinoff et al., 2017 (link)). BDNF was measured in participants with at least four of six successful visits in serum by the human free BDNF ELISA kit (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, United States) according to the instructions of the manufacturer with a dilution factor of 1:3 (standard and sample). All standards, samples, and controls were run once. A sigmoid curve was fitted on the resulting data, and the sample concentrations were calculated by the Dynex DS2 software.
Platelet counts were measured with Sysmex fluorescence flow cytometry (XE-2100D, Sysmex Xtra 2/2008) according to the instructions of the manufacturer and in line with the ICSH reference methods (International Council for Standardization in Hematology).
In a second step, results of serum BDNF concentrations and platelet count were corrected according to the method of Dill and Costill for dehydration (Dill and Costill, 1974 (link); Alis et al., 2015 (link)).

Biomarkers for Childhood Chronic Rhinosinusitis

To find a disease-specific marker, we assessed serum total IgE, aeroallergen specific IgE, total peripheral blood eosinophil counts (TEC), and serum eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) levels in children with CRS at initial presentation. The number of peripheral blood eosinophils was counted with blood samples containing EDTA using an automated hematology analyzer (Model: XE2100 D, Sysmex, Japan). Serum total IgE level was measured using ImmumoCAP tests (Phadia AB, Uppsala, Sweden) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Serum ECP level was measured using a commercially available fluoroimmunoassay kit (Phadia AB, Uppsala, Sweden), which had a detection limit of less than 2.0 μg/L. Blood sample collection, serum preparation, and serum ECP measurement were performed at the beginning of the study according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Hemoglobin-Based Anemia Assessment

Blood analysis, including Hb level measurements, was performed and used as an index to determine the level of anemia. Hemoglobin levels were measured by the cyanide-free sodium lauryl sulfate method using XE-2100D (Sysmex, Kobe, Japan). Anemia was defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as hemoglobin levels of <13 g/dL in men and <12 g/dL in women [31 ].

The outcome of this study was HCT level (%) retrieved from the health check-up file as a predictor of CVD risk23 (link), 24 (link), 25 (link), 26 (link)). Venous blood samples were collected by professional medical technologist from 9 am to 4 pm. HCT levels were measured by the Flow Cytometry method using semiconductor laser (XE-2100D, Sysmex, Kobe, Japan).

Broiler Antioxidant and Blood Profiling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All broilers had 2 mL of blood drawn from the wing veins prior to slaughter,
which was collected in vacuum tubes containing K3EDTA and a tube free
of heparin for serum analysis. The collected blood samples were centrifuged for
20 minutes at 12,500×g at 4°C. An automatic hematology analyzer
(XE2100D, Sysmex, Kobe, Japan) was used to examine red blood cell (RBC), white
blood cell (WBC), heterophil, and lymphocyte samples. For total antioxidant
status (TAS) analysis, the serum samples obtained by centrifugation of the blood
were measured using a total antioxidant capacity assay kit, such as the ELISA
kit (EK780137, AFG Scientific, Northbrook, IL, USA). The uric acid levels were
measured using the Qualigent UA (Qualigent UA, SEKISUI Medical, Tokyo, Japan)
reagent through an enzymatic assay method (Labospect008AS, Hitachi, Tokyo,
Japan).

Broiler blood analysis protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Blood samples were collected from the brachial wing vein at 2 and 4 weeks
(before slaughter), 8 broilers per treatment. Blood samples were collected
into vacuum tubes containing K3EDTA for completed blood count
analysis and nonheparinized tubes for serum analysis, respectively. After
collection, serum samples were centrifuged at 12,500×g at 4°C
for 20 min. Red blood cell (RBC), white blood cell (WBC), and lymphocyte
were analyzed using an automatic hematology analyzer (XE2100D, Sysmex, Kobe,
Japan). Total protein (TP) level was measured using a colorimetric method,
and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level was analyzed using the urease glutamate
dehydrogenase method. The TP and BUN in blood were measured using a fully
automated chemistry analyzer (Cobas C702, Hofmann-La Roche,
Switzerland).

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.
