0.1 cm quartz cuvette

Manufactured by Hellma
Sourced in United States, Germany

The 0.1 cm quartz cuvettes are optical cells designed for spectroscopic analysis. They feature a path length of 0.1 cm and are made of high-quality quartz material. These cuvettes are commonly used in various analytical techniques that require a short path length, such as UV-Vis spectroscopy.

Tau Protein Structural Analysis by CD Spectroscopy

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
CD spectra were acquired on a Jasco
J-810 CD spectropolarimeter using 0.1 cm quartz cuvettes (Hellma)
operated at 20 °C. To minimize buffer absorption, Tau samples
with 1 to 2.5 μM concentration were dialysed overnight against
10 mM sodium phosphate buffer, pH 7.8, in Slide-A-Lyzer MINI dialysis
devices (100 μL). CD spectra were recorded from 190 to 260 nm
at a scan speed of 20 nm/min and an increment of 1 nm. Four scans
were recorded for each sample. The buffer was used as a blank for
background subtraction.

Proteins were diluted to 0.1 mg/mL in degassed CD buffer (10 mM HEPES, pH 7.4 at 25 °C). CD measurements from a buffer only sample were subtracted from the protein CD measurements. CD experiments were carried out on a Chirascan CD spectrometer (Applied Photophysics) at 25 °C using 0.1 cm quartz cuvettes (Hellma Analytics).

Circular Dichroism Protein Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Circular dichroism (CD) measurements were performed at wavelengths from 200 to 250 nm at 20°C using 1 nm intervals with 10 accumulations per read. The proteins were diluted to a final concentration of 3 µM (BR3 Pol) and 1.3 µM (KOD Pol) in PBS buffer containing the corresponding salt concentrations and incubated at room temperature for 5 min before the measurements. A sample volume of 300 µl was used in a 0.1-cm quartz cuvette (Hellma, Huntington, NY, USA), and the measurement was performed on a Jasco J-815 Spectrometer (Jasco, Easton, MD, USA). The molar ellipticity was calculated by Spectra Manager II (Jasco).

Functional Analysis of Glutaredoxin Enzyme

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The Cys13, Pro14, Tyr15, Cys16, Arg43, Thr55, Val56, and Pro57 residues in the active sites and binding sites were mutated to evaluate the effects of these residues on enzyme activity. To generate mutant forms of Ps-Grx3, the pET-28a(+) vector was used as a template for the site-directed mutagenesis of the Cys13, Pro14, Tyr15, Cys16, Arg43, Thr55, Val56, and Pro57 residues to alanine using the QuikChange Site-directed Mutagenesis Kit (Stratagene) following the manufacturer’s instructions. The primers designed for site-directed mutagenesis are shown in Table 1. The expression and purification of the mutant proteins were performed as described for wild-type Ps-Grx3.
For all Circular Dichroism (CD) measurements, five repeated scans were carried out to establish a baseline. Far-UV CD measurements were performed in a 0.1-cm quartz cuvette (Hellma, Germany) between 260 and 180 nm for 12 s every 1.0 nm using a bandwidth of 1.5 nm in a Jasco J-107 spectropolarimeter (Jasco, Japan). Ps-Grx3 and its mutant forms were separately diluted in a solution of 100 mM Tris–HCl (pH 8.0). Changes in secondary structure were presented as molar ellipticity [θ], according to the following equation: to the following equation:
in which θ is the ellipticity measured at a given wavelength λ (deg), n is the number of amino acids, l is the cell path length (cm), and c is the protein concentration (mol/L).

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.
