Hematological and Biochemical Profiling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Blood was collected in EDTA tubes to analyze common hematology parameters using a HEMAVET 950 Multispecies Hematology Analyzer (Drew Scientific, Miami Lakes, FL, USA). Measured parameters included total white blood cell counts (WBC), total and percent neutrophils (NE), lymphocytes (LY), monocytes (MO), eosinophils (EO), basophils (BA), and monocytes (MO). Additional blood volume was collected in SST tubes, processed to serum, and analyzed for changes in clinical chemistry using a VetScan VS2 Chemistry Analyzer and Comprehensive Diagnostic Profile rotors (Abaxis, Union City, CA, USA) as previously described [39 (link)]. Samples collected from uninfected animals euthanized on day 0 served as baseline.

Comprehensive Hematology and Blood Chemistry Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Hematology was performed on an HM5 analyzer (Abaxis, https://www.abaxis.com) by using K3 EDTA-treated whole blood. We evaluated erythrocytes, hemoglobin, hematocrit, mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, red cell distribution weight, platelets, mean platelet volume, leukocytes, and absolute and percent neutrophil count, lymphocyte count, monocyte count, eosinophil count, and basophil count. Blood chemistries were evaluated on a VetScan 2 (Abaxis) with Comprehensive Diagnostic Profile rotors (Abaxis) by using serum stored at −80°C until tested. We evaluated glucose, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, calcium, albumin, total protein, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, amylase, potassium, sodium, phosphate, chloride, globulin, and total bilirubin. We used sodium heparin-treated blood to analyze venous blood gases by using an iSTAT Alinity V (Abaxis) instrument with a CG4+ cartridge (Abaxis) to measure lactate, pH, total carbon dioxide, partial pressure carbon dioxide, partial pressure oxygen, soluble oxygen, bicarbonate, and base excess. We used age-specific values and the instrument reference intervals to establish normal ranges (18 (link)–20 (link)).

Comprehensive Biomarker Profiling for Viral Infection

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Femoral vein peripheral blood was collected via Vacutainer® into standard collection tubes containing a clot activator (serum separator tubes) or EDTA. Clinical chemistry analyses were conducted on harvested serum using the Abaxis VetScan VS2® Chemistry Analyzer using Comprehensive Diagnostic Profile rotors (Abaxis, Inc., Union City, CA, USA). Hematology was performed on EDTA blood using the Abaxis VETSCAN® HM5 Hematology Analyzer (Abaxis, Inc., Union City, CA, USA). Serum was frozen for viral load analysis. Nasal, oral, and rectal swabs were collected on days 0–5, 7, 10, and 14 using sterile cotton-tipped medical swabs which were placed into 0.5 mL sterile phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) for viral load analysis.

Serum Biochemistry Analysis for Toxicity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Serum biochemistry was analyzed for 14 biochemical markers of general toxicity (listed in supplemental table 1) to determine exposure effects. All procedures followed manufacturer’s protocols. On day of analysis, random samples of serum were thawed at 4°C and 120μL/sample added to the Comprehensive Diagnostic profile rotors (500–7123; Abaxis, Union City, CA). For quality assurance, a control sample (pooled from 20 random samples) was ran approximately every 25 samples. Rotors were placed in the VetScan VS2 Whole Blood chemistry analyzer and data exported. Final numbers were controls (13F,14M), BFR (11F,9M), OPFR (12F,11M) and FM550 (14F,15M). Although 21 statistical outliers from 6 biomarkers across female and male groups were identified, all data was used because no animal had greater than 2 outlying samples across all biomarkers.

Evaluating Tranilast Safety in Mice

In order to determine if tranilast administration was safe, we tested the plasma collected from the mice after 8 weeks of treatment with the vehicle or tranilast. The plasma (100 μL) was pipetted into the Comprehensive Diagnostic Profile Rotor (#500-1038, Abaxis, Union City, CA, USA), and the values of glucose, creatinine, BUN, phosphorus, sodium, albumin, alkaline phosphatase, serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT; ALT), total protein, globulin, total bilirubin, and amylase were analyzed using the VetScan VS2 chemistry analyzer (Abaxis, Union City, CA, USA).

Hematological and Serum Biochemical Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To determine hematological parameters, whole blood in K2EDTA tubes was analyzed using the Hemavet 950 system (Drew Scientific Inc., Miami Lakes, FL, USA) according to manufacturer instructions. For serum biochemical parameters, serum was harvested from SST tubes and clarified by centrifugation (5 min, 6000× g). Serum was immediately aliquoted and stored at −80 °C for PRNT and Bioplex assays. At least 200 μL from each NHP was not frozen and inoculated immediately into a Comprehensive Diagnostic Profile rotor (Abaxis, Union City, CA, USA) and subjected to biochemical analysis via the VetScan VS2 (Abaxis, Union City, CA, USA) according to manufacturer instructions.

Liver Analysis in Mouse Model

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Liver was harvested when mice reached the indicated timepoints and fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin (NBF) for histology, frozen in Tissue-Tek OCT compound (Sakura Finetek) in liquid nitrogen-cooled isopentane for cryosections, or snap frozen in liquid nitrogen for RNA and protein extraction. Blood was collected by cardiac puncture, kept in lithium heparin-coated Microvette 500 LH (20.1345.100; Sarstedt), and analysed using the Comprehensive Diagnostic Profile rotor (500–0038; Abaxis) on the Vetscan VS2 (Abaxis) for liver function, or using the Hemavet 950 (Drew Scientific) for blood leukocyte counting. Embryonic day 14.5 (E14.5) hepatoblasts and postnatal day 14 (P14) hepatocytes were isolated using a previously published protocol [78 ].

In Vivo Toxicity Assessment of Nanoparticles

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
BALB/c female mice10–12 weeks of age were intravenously injected with 100 μL of PBS or ZHS-QDs in PBS (18 nmol Zn per g body weight) followed 30 min later with intraperitoneal injection of 300 μL of PBS or 1x Ag-TS. For biodistribution and clearance studies, the mice were sacrificed under deep anesthesia 1 h, 24 h, and 10 days after Ag-TS injection. Major tissues, serum, feces and urine samples were collected for quantification of mercury with ICP-OES42 (link). To examine in vivo toxicity, blood was collected from the retro-orbital plexus of each mouse under deep anesthesia into a lithium-heparin 1.3 ml micro tube (Sarstedt, Nümbrecht, Germany) after 24 h and 1 week, and plasma was isolated by centrifugation. The plasma (100 μl) was pipetted into a Comprehensive Diagnostic Profile Rotor (Product Part No. 500-1038, Abaxis, Union City, CA) and subjected to biochemical toxicity assays using an AbaxisVetScan VS2 chemistry analyzer. The mice were then sacrificed under deep anesthesia, and tissues were collected and processed for paraffin embedding. Sectioned paraffin blocks were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), and whole slide scanning was performed with a Leica SCN 400 slide scanner.

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.
