Nylon net filter

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States, Ireland

The Nylon Net Filter is a laboratory filtration device designed to remove particulate matter from liquid samples. It is made of a nylon mesh material that acts as a physical barrier to trap suspended solids while allowing the liquid to pass through. The filter effectively separates and retains particles of various sizes, depending on the specified pore size. This product provides a reliable and consistent method for sample clarification and purification in scientific research and analytical applications.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Water sample was obtained from an artificial pond at the premises of the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), Japan, in November 2019. A grab sample was collected in a 2.2-l autoclaved plastic bottle, roughly 5 cm below the surface of the water. To remove large particles and debris, the water sample was passed sequentially through a 41-µm and a 20-µm nylon net filter (Merck Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). The filtered sample was then centrifuged at 12,000 × g for 20 min at 18 °C and 400 ml of subnatant with cell pellet recovered. The latter was centrifuged (9,510 × g for 20 min at 18 °C) and the recovered cell pellet washed with R2A medium (bacto yeast extract, 0.5 g/l; bacto proteose peptone No. 3, 0.5 g/l; casamino acids, 0.5 g/l; glucose, 0.5 g/l; soluble starch, 0.5 g/l; K2HPO4, 0.3 g/l; MgSO4⋅7H2O, 0.05 g/l; sodium pyruvate, 0.3 g/l). The washing step was repeated two times and cells were finally resuspended in 17 ml of R2A medium. Cells were stained with SYTO 9 Green Fluorescent Nucleic Acid Stain (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) and counted by fluorescence microscopy.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
GFP-expressing RSSC strains were inoculated into 2× BG medium (2 mL) containing kanamycin (50 μg/mL) and cultured overnight by shaking. A nylon net filter (11 μm, 47 mm, Merck) was placed on the surface of a BG agar medium (25 mL in 90-mm plastic dish) containing kanamycin (100 μg/mL). After the B medium (50 μL) was added to the top of the net, another nylon net (20 μm, 47 mm, Merck) was placed on top. RSSC cell suspension (5 μL) and F. oxysporum NBRC 31213 spore suspension (5 μL) were spotted on the top net, 15 mm apart from each other. The plate was incubated at 30°C for 3 days. The top net filter was removed from the medium and washed thoroughly with MilliQ water to remove the bacteria cells. Chlamydospores were collected by rubbing the surface using a cover glass. The collected chlamydospores were washed with MilliQ water (0.5 mL) and observed under a fluorescence microscope (BZ-X810, Keyence). The invasion rate (% = chlamydospores with RSSC/total chlamydospores × 100) per condition was calculated from three to five dishes.

Measuring Intracellular ROS Using DCFDA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fibroblasts were seeded in 6-well plates at the density 105 cells per well. On the following day, cells were incubated with 1 μM Carboxy-H2DCFDA (Thermo Fisher) in CMEM with reduced FBS (2%) for 30 min at 5% CO2 and 37 °C. Cells were harvested by Trypsin-EDTA, rinsed with 1× PBS and resuspended in 1× PBS complemented with 1% (v/v) FBS. 6-carboxy-2’,7’-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate is a chemically reduced, acetylated form of fluorescein used as an indicator for reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells. This nonfluorescent molecule is readily converted to a green-fluorescent form when the acetate groups are removed by intracellular esterases and oxidation (by the activity of ROS) occurs within the cell.
Cells were filtered through a 41 µm Nylon Net Filter (Merck Millipore, MilliporeSigma, Burlington, MA, USA prior to the FACS measurement. Data acquisition was performed using a FACS Aria III flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA). Data were analyzed with FlowJo software version 10 (FlowJo LLC, Ashland, OR, USA).

Cannabis Trichome Isolation in Flowering

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cannabis trichomes in this research were isolated according to Yerger et al. [28] with slight modifications. Fresh flowers of C. sativa, variety Bediol, were put into liquid nitrogen. Floral leaves and the stigma were removed using forceps, with occasional resubmerging of the flowers in liquid nitrogen. Afterwards, a 5-to 10-g flower sample was transferred into a 50-mL falcon tube and placed in liquid nitrogen. The tube was then removed from the liquid nitrogen tank and approximately 2 to 3 cm 3 of finely powdered dry ice (prepared by wrapping a piece in clean paper towels and crushing with a pestle) were added. Immediately, the tube was loosely capped and vortexed at maximum speed for approximately 1 min, and then the flowers were removed. To obtain the trichomes, the content of each tube was sieved through a nylon net filter with a pore diameter of 140 µm (Merck Millipore) into a 500-mL glass beaker surrounded by dry ice. The trichomes were subsequently transferred into 2 mL frozen microcentrifuge tubes with a spatula; the samples were placed in liquid nitrogen.
In this work, trichomes were isolated at 4 different harvest times during the flowering period, namely, weeks 5, 6, 7, and 8. Six biological replicates of the Cannabis trichomes were collected at each harvest, thus, in total, twenty-four samples were prepared.
