Oxalic Acid Stripping of Dysprosium

Equal volumes of an aqueous
oxalic acid solution and the loaded LP phase were contacted for 60
min at room temperature (21 ± 1 °C). The concentration of
oxalic acid used in stripping was the exact stoichiometric amount
needed for precipitation of all rare earths in the LP phase. For a
LP phase containing 0.9 g L–1 Dy(III), this corresponds
to 8.3 mmol L–1. After reaching equilibrium, the
phase separation was accelerated by centrifugation (Heraeus Labofuge
200, Thermo Scientific, United States). The remaining Dy(III) concentration
in the LP phase was determined via inductively coupled plasma-optical
emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES), performed with an Avio 500 spectrometer
(PerkinElmer, United States) equipped with a GemCone low-flow nebulizer,
baffled cyclonic spray chamber, alumina injector, and PerkinElmer
Hybrid XLT torch. The samples of the LP phase, the calibration solutions,
the blank solution, and quality controls were diluted in 1-butanol,
with 5 ppm of scandium added as internal standard. The line at 353.170
nm for Dy(III) was measured in axial viewing mode.

BDNF Quantification in Serum

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For BDNF analysis, 4.5 mL of venous blood from the antecubital vein was collected with a clotted blood tube at three time points. The first blood sample was taken at the beginning of the experimental session. The second blood sample was collected immediately after the learning phase and the third one was taken immediately after the intervention (exercising or relaxing).
All samples clotted within 30 minutes at a temperature of 21°C. After the clotting period, samples were centrifuged for 10 minutes with 4800 rounds per minute using the Heraeus Labofuge 200 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Germany). Serum was immediately pipetted into separate SafeSeal microtubes (Sarstedt, Nürnberg, Germany). Samples were stored at −23°C for a mean of 13.5 days and then transferred to a −80°C freezer until the analysis started. BDNF levels in serum were measured using the Quantikine® Human BDNF Immunoassay from R&D Systems (Wiesbaden, Germany) with intra- and interassay coefficients of variation in the range between 8.8 and 11.4 for values between 7.24 and 41.6 ng/mL. The minimum detectable BDNF dose was less than 20 pg/mL, according to the manufacturer's information. BDNF analysis was performed by the Institute of Laboratory Medicine, Clinical Chemistry and Molecular Diagnostics in Leipzig.

BDNF Quantification in Serum Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In each of the two blood samples, 4.5 ml of venous blood from the antecubital vein were collected with a clotted blood tube. Collection and analysis of blood samples was performed according to the following uniform protocol: all samples clotted within 30 minutes at a temperature of 21C. After the clotting period, samples were centrifuged for 10 minutes with 4800 rounds per minute using the Heraeus Labofuge 200 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Germany). Immediately afterwards, serum was pipetted into separate SafeSeal micro tubes (Sarstedt, Nürnberg, Germany). Samples were stored at -30°C for one night and then transferred to a -80°C freezer for another three weeks. Then, BDNF levels in serum were measured using the Quantikine® Human BDNF Immunoassay from R&D Systems (Wiesbaden, Germany) with intra- and inter-assay precision of 6.2% and 8.1%, respectively.
The minimum detectable BDNF dose was less than 20 pg/mL, according to the manufacturer’s information. All samples were tested twice for reliability.

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.
