Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The pre-incubation solution was prepared by adding 205.5 μL water, 24 μL of UGT Reaction Mix solution A, 60μL of UGT Reaction Mix solution B, 7.5 μL rat liver microsomes from Corning Gentest into a 1.5 mL microcentrifuge. The mixtures were incubated at 37°C for 5 min in an incubator. Then 3 μL of 10mM ZB716 was added, mixed, and incubated at 37°C for 60 min in the incubator. After incubation, 300 μL MeOH was added to terminate the reaction. The final mixture was then centrifuged at 10,000× g for 4 min at 4 °C. The supernatant was analyzed by the UHPLC-Q-Exactive instrument.

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.
