Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HPLC analysis was carried out by Scistd Testing Co., LTD. (Qingdao, China). Anthocyanins were extracted using 50 mg of powdered petal (flower development stage 2–3) suspended in 5 ml of 0.5% (v/v) HCl‐methanol and incubated for 2 hr at 4°C in the dark. The extracts were then centrifuged for 15 min at 14,000 rpm, and the supernatants were collected and stored at −20°C. The supernatant was diluted with methanol to 5 ml and filtered through a cellulose acetate membrane (Sartorius, Göttingen, Germany). HPLC was performed with Agilent 1260 Infinity LC (Agilent Technologies, USA). Anthocyanidin profile analysis was quantified at the 530 nm wavelength by using a calibration curve from commercial standards of anthocyanidins (pelargonidin, cyanidin, delphinidin, petunidin, peonidin, and malvidin, Sigma, USA).

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.
