Alkane Oxidation in T. oleivorans

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
T. oleivorans MIL-1 (DSM 14913) was grown in sterile 160 ml Nunc Cell Culture Treated Flasks containing 100 ml of ONR7a media (Dyksterhouse et al., 1995 (link)). Cultures were enriched separately with the medium-chain alkane n-tetradecane (n-C14), or the long-chain alkane n-octacosane (n-C28). Cultures were incubated in an orbital shaker (16°C, 60 rpm) over a period of 7 days. Each day triplicate cultures of n-C14 and n-C28 were agitated through water sonication for 30 min and pre-concentrated through solid phase extraction (SPE) by Supel-Select HLB cartridges (Supelco, 200 mg, 6 ml) and eluted with 12 ml of chloroform. Samples were further concentrated through evaporation of the chloroform to 200 μl with nitrogen. The concentrated solvent was analyzed to detect the alcohols produced from the oxidation of the alkanes used as growth substrates. GC-MS analysis was carried out as previously described (McKew et al., 2007b (link)). The mass spectrometer scanned m/z values from 10 to 550, with identification of target analytes based on retention times of analytical standards; 1-tetradecanol, 2-tetradecanol and 1-octacosanol (Sigma-Aldrich).

Proboscis Extension Response Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We collected 3–5-day-old flies in fresh food for 24 hours. Then, we starved them for 18 hours in vials containing 1% agarose. After anaesthetizing the flies on ice, we mounted them on slide glasses with melted 1-tetradecanol (185388, Sigma-Aldrich). We then allowed the flies to recover for 1–2 hours and ensured they were satiated with water before the assay. For each test solution, we used a 1 ml syringe with a 32-gauge needle to apply a single droplet directly to the labellum. We dissolved FAs in 4% ethanol. Each experimental group contained 24 flies, half were mated males and half were mated females, attached to a slide glass. All PER experiments were performed at the same time to eliminate any circadian effects. We report PER responses as the number of responding flies/total flies.

Analytical grade chemicals including 1-hexanol (≥ 99%, d = 0.814 g mL−1), 1-dodecanol (≥ 98.0%, d = 0.83 g cm−3), 1-decanol (≥ 99.0%, d = 0.80 g cm−3), 1-tetradecanol (≥ 97%, d = 0.823 g cm−1, Sigma), and tetrahydrofuran (Carlo Erba, THF) were used to prepare alkanol-based SUPRASs. Ultrapure water was prepared by Milli-Q water purification system (Millipore, Bedford, MA, USA). Stock solution (1000 mg L−1) of Al(III) ion was prepared from Al(NO3)3 salt (Sigma, St Louis, MO, USA) in water and stored at 4 °C in a refrigerator. A stock solution of morinhydrate was prepared in ethanol at a concentration of 1000 mg L−1 (Carlo Erba, Milan, Italy) and stored in dark. The calibration solutions were freshly prepared by sequential dilution of the stock solutions. A 5% (w/v) of KCl solution was prepared by dissolving 5.0 g of KCl (Sigma) in 100 mL deionized water. Borate, acetate, phthalate, and citrate buffer solutions were used to adjust solutions pH. To minimize all possible contamination of glassware, a diluted HNO3 solution was used for washing glassware and finally rinsed with distilled water.

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.
