Lecithin (Sinopharm Chemical Reagent Ltd. Co., Shanghai, China), cholesterol (KeLong Chemical Reagent Ltd. Co., Chengdu, China) and PTX (Chengdu Yuancheng Biotechnology Ltd. Co., Chengdu, China), all in ethyl ether (3 : 1 : 0.3, weight ratio), were added to the reaction bottle. The mixture was kept in water bath at 55 °C by a rotary evaporator until the ethyl ether was completely evaporated. Then a given amount of PBS, PEG 4000, dextran 40000 and span 80 was added and mixed. After that, the air was displaced with the nitrogen gas. After being vibrated and centrifuged at 300 rpm for three minutes, 125 μl of 3% human serum albumin was added to the resulting PLM. For the control lipid MBs (LM), the same procedure was performed instead of PTX addition.

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.
