Nanoemulsion for Docetaxel Drug Delivery

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Sorbitan trioleate (Span 85) and polyoxyethylenesorbitan monooleate (Tween 80) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich Inc. (St. Louis, MO, USA). Docetaxel was purchased from LC laboratories (Woburn, MA, USA). Lipiodol, an FDA-approved iodized oil, was purchased from Guerbet (Aulnay-Sous-Bois, France). All other materials were of reagent grade and used without further purification.
Oil-in-water emulsions were prepared using a homogenization method as previously described [34 (link)]. Briefly, 7 mg of Docetaxel and 300 μl of Lipiodol were dissolved in ethanol together with varying amounts of surfactant mixture (Tween 80 and Span 85). Ethanol was removed under reduced pressure using a rotary evaporator until a pre-emulsion concentrate was obtained. We then added 0.7 ml of saline dropwise to the pre-emulsion concentrate while vortexing, followed by sonication in a bath sonicator at 37°C for 30 min. The obtained emulsions were placed in an ice bath, then homogenized at 11,000 rpm using a homogenizer (IKA-Wereke, Stufen, Germany) in four intervals (durations: 10, 5, 5, and 5 min), to obtain a homogeneous nanoemulsion. Unloaded Docetaxel was removed from the emulsion dispersion by filtering through an 0.8-μm syringe membrane filter. The filtered emulsions were stored at 4°C until use.

Production and Cultivation of M. anisopliae

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Conidia of M. anisopliae ESALQ4676 were obtained by growing agar chunks from the monosporic stock culture in Petri dishes containing potato dextrose agar in a concentration of 39g per liter of distilled water (PDA, Difco, Sparks, MD, USA) for ten days at 26° and 12:12 h photoperiod. Conidia were harvested by washing Petri dishes containing actively sporulating fungal cultures with 10 mL of a sterile aqueous solution with 0.02% polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate (Tween 80, Sigma). A conidial suspension of 5×106 conidia mL-1 was used to inoculate 50 mL liquid modified Adamek medium in 250-mL baffled Erlenmeyer flasks giving a final concentration in the culture broth of 5×105 conidia mL-1 (i.e., 10% v/v inoculum). Liquid cultures were incubated at 28° in a rotatory incubator shaker and 350 rpm for 72 hr. Four Erlenmeyer flasks were inoculated and each considered a biological replicate. A volume of 120uL of the 5×106 conidia mL-1 suspension was spread with sterile Drigalski handles in Petri dishes (9 cm diameter) containing solid modified Adamek medium. Four fungal cultures on solid media in separate petri dishes were incubated at 28° for 5 days with a 12:12 h photoperiod, and each considered as one biological replicate.

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.
