To measure DNA, GAGs, and hydroxyproline (HYP), samples were digested, according to Kim et al. [19 (link)]. Briefly, a small piece (~ 3 mm × 3 mm) from the middle portion of each sample was taken and lyophilized for 48 hours. Three pieces of 2–3 mg of freeze-dried tissue were used as technical replicate from each meniscus and digested in 500 μL Papain digestion buffer [130 μg Papain (Sigma-Aldrich) per ml in 5 mM L-cysteine hydrochloride (Sigma-Aldrich) + 5 mM Na2EDTA (VWR)] for 24 hours at 60 °C in an Eppendorf ThermoMixer® at 300 rpm.

Fresh leaf samples were frozen in liquid nitrogen upon harvesting from both treated and control plant samples. The frozen leaves were then kept at low temperature (−80 °C) for further analyses. For each sample, 0.5 g of leaf samples was vortexed with 5 mL of extraction buffer with 50 mM K-phosphate buffer with pH of 7.6 and 0.1 mM Na2EDTA (Amresco, Dallas, TX, USA). The buffer mixture was centrifuged at 15,000 rpm for 15 min, and the supernatant fraction was used to assay various enzymes. All steps in the preparation of enzyme extracts were performed at 4 °C. Catalase (CAT) activity was determined by monitoring the declining level of H2O2, as described by Cakmak and Marschner [47 (link)].

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.
