Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The anaesthetic effect of clove oil (82%-87% eugenol:Sigma, MO, USA) was
investigated at four concentrations (15, 30, 45, and 60 ppm), three water
salinities (10, 20, and 30 ppt) and three temperatures (20℃, 24℃,
and 28℃). The anaesthetic effect of the combination of two anaesthetics,
clove oil and lidocaine-HCl (Sigma, MO, USA) was examined at three
concentrations of clove oil (15, 30, and 45 ppm) and three concentrations of
lidocaine-HCl (400, 500, and 600 ppm) at 24℃ and 30 ppt. Fish were
exposed to different combinations of salinity, water temperature and anaesthesia
concentrations. The stock solution clove oil was dissolved in 95% ethanol
(Sigma, MO, USA) at a ratio of 1:10 (Cho
& Heath, 2000
). Low doses of ethanol have no anaesthetic
effect on fish (Munday & Wilson,
1997
). The anaesthetic solution of lidocaine-HCl was neutralized with
1,000 ppm NaHCO3 (Park et al.,
1998b
), which was prepared as the total concentration to anaesthetic
effect.
Exposure time was measured from the time when samples were transferred from a
stock tank to an anaesthetic-containing aquarium (30 L) to when they reached A5
(Table 1) behavior; recovery time was
measured between the time when the anaesthetized samples were transferred to a
sea water tank containing 30 L with sufficient aeration and the time they
reached R6 (Table 1) behavior.

The following drugs and dosage were used: carbachol HCl (Sigma) 2 mg/kg; atropine sulfate (Sigma) 2.5 mg/kg; scopolamine HBr (Sigma) 2 mg/kg; epinephrine bitartrate (Sigma) 1 mg/kg; amphetamine bitartrate 5 mg/kg; lidocaine HCl (Sigma) 40 mg/kg; acetyl salycilic acid,100 mg/kg; morphine HCL, 10 mg/kg; haloperidol (Syntex latino, SA) 1 and 6 mg/kg. Each drug was dissolved in isotonic saline solution (0.9% NaCl) just before use, and the resulting solution was administered by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of 0.2 mL. The hydroalcoholic extract of the bark was administered intraperitoneally at the dose of 0.5 g dried plant/kg weight, and dichloromethane extract at 1.25 g dried plant/kg weight.

Animals were anaesthetized with isoflurane and a partial laminectomy of the T9 vertebrae was performed to expose spinal level T10. Animals were injected bilaterally with 1 μl lidocaine-HCl (400 mg ml−1, Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO) in ACSF or ACSF alone split between two sites, 250 μm deep in the dorsal funiculus. The dorsal musculature was sutured with 4-0 silk sutures and the skin was closed with surgical staples. The animals were tested on an accelerating rotarod starting at 10 min after injection.

Isolation and Characterization of Murine Resident Peritoneal Macrophages

Mouse RPM were obtained by lavaging the peritoneal cavity with 10 ml PBS containing 0.5% BSA and 2 mM EDTA. Cells were washed three times in PBS before resuspending in DMEM supplemented with 10% FCS, 2 mM L-glutamine, 0.1 mg/ml streptomycin and 100 U/ml penicillin. Cells were seeded on 8-well Lab-Tek chamber slides at 6 × 104 cells per well in 300 µl of media. Non-adherent cells were rinsed off after letting the macrophages adhere for 2 h and used in RBC binding/phagocytosis assays. For flow cytometry-based assays, the cells were seeded on 4 cm bacterial Petri dishes (BD Falcon) and after 2 h the RPMs were lifted using 4 mg/ml lidocaine-HCl (Sigma-Aldrich) and 5 mM EDTA in PBS (Ca2+-, Mg2+-; Gibco, Invitrogen) and immunochemically labeled for analysis by flow cytometry.

Subcutaneous Fat Biopsy Procedure

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Subcutaneous WAT (approximately 3 g) biopsies from each of the fifteen cows were harvested as previously described (26 (link)). Briefly, the biopsy site, a 5 × 5 cm area of skin at the tailhead, was shaved, then sanitized with iodine scrub and 75% alcohol, and finally anesthetized with 2% lidocaine HCl (Sigma-Aldrich Co., St. Louis, MO, USA). A 1.5–2.5-cm scalpel incision through the skin and subcutaneous tissue is made by aseptic techniques. Adipose tissue was clamped with tweezers and snipped with scissors. After the samples were rinsed with saline, a portion was rapidly frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at −80°C until analysis, while the rest was fixed in 4% formalin. The tissue specimens were then embedded in paraffin blocks using routine procedures, followed by hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining and histopathological examination for morphological changes under a microscope.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Blood samples were collected and measured for 3 consecutive days; we used the average for each measurement in the study. During the collection of blood samples, daily milk yields were recorded at 0530 and 1500 h for 3 consecutive days. The 20-kg allowance of TMR per cow per feeding time was weighed and the weight of the orts recorded at the next feeding time.
Finally, DMI was calculated for 3 consecutive days. Blood samples were taken before morning feeding (approximately 0730-0830 h) from a coccygeal vein and were immediately centrifuged at 3,500 × g for 15 min at 4°C. Serum was obtained and stored at -80°C until analysis.
Liver biopsies were taken once on the last day of blood sample collection by liver needle puncture (Shanghai Surgical Equipment Factory, Shanghai, China) from the right side of each cow between the 11th and 12th intercostal space. After shaving and disinfecting with iodine scrub and 75% alcohol, an area (5 × 5 cm) was anesthetized subcutaneously with 2% lidocaine HCl (Sigma-Aldrich Co., St. Louis, MO). A 3 mm stab incision in the skin was made with a scalpel blade, and multiple liver biopsies (~200 mg) were taken from the incision site using the puncture needle. Liver biopsies were frozen immediately after collection in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80°C.

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.
