Total RNA was extracted from 80 mg rapeseed bee pollen using Trizol (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Quantitative RT-PCR was performed using Taqman miRNA probes (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer's instructions. To calculate the absolute expression levels of target miRNAs, a series of synthetic miRNA oligonucleotides at known concentrations were reverse transcribed and amplified. The absolute amount of each miRNA was then calculated with reference to the standard curve. Quantitative PCR was performed using an ABI-StepOnePlus machine (Applied Biosystems).

Zika Virus Infection in Aedes Mosquitoes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Four-six day old female Ae. aegypti (Galveston strain) mosquitoes were orally infected with ZIKV (Mex 1–7 strain) at 2 x 105 focus forming units (FFU)/ml) in a sheep blood meal (Colorado Serum Company). At 2, 7 and 14 days post-infection (dpi) RNA was extracted from whole mosquitoes using the mirVana RNA extraction kit (Life Technologies) following the protocol for extraction of total RNA. Viral infection in mosquitoes was confirmed by Taqman qPCR on ABI StepOnePlus machine (Applied Biosystems) using a ZIKV-specific probe and primers (S4 Table). RNA from ZIKV positive samples was pooled (N = 5) for time points 7 and 14. Limited ZIKV positive samples were detected at day 2, likely due to the virus titer being at the limits of detection for qPCR. For this time point, at least 1 qPCR positive individual was included in each pool. For all time points, three independent pools were used to create libraries for infected and uninfected samples. Control mosquitoes were fed with blood devoid of ZIKV and collected at the same time points and processed in the same way as infected ones.

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.
