Amicon ultra 100 k filter unit

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

The Amicon Ultra 100 K filter unit is a centrifugal filter device designed for the concentration and desalting of protein solutions. The filter unit features a 100 kDa molecular weight cutoff membrane that allows the passage of small molecules while retaining larger proteins and macromolecules.

Dilution Series of Virus-Infected Cell Media

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Medium of A549 infected with Ad6-hT-GM at MOI = 100 vp/cell and non-infected A549 cells were collected 48 hpi (hours post-infection) and clarified by centrifugation for 10 min at 2800× g. It was filtered then through the Amicon Ultra 100 K filter unit (Millipore Burlington, MA, USA) to remove the virus. Two-fold dilutions of the culture medium in the range of 1:4 to 1:1024 were prepared for the experiment in RPMI medium (Invitrogen Waltham, MA, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum (HyClone, Logan, UT, USA).

Production and Purification of Lentivirus and AAV

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Lentivirus was produced by co-transfection of established lentiviral plasmids20 (link) and packaging vectors (RRE, Rev, VSVG) into HEK-293FT cells (Invitrogen). Transfection was performed using Lipofectamine 2000 reagent (Invitrogen) following the manufacturer's protocol. 48–72 h after transfection, supernatants were collected and virus was concentrated following our previously described protocol32 (link). AAV was also generated as previously described63 (link). Briefly, AAV plasmid and helper constructs were co-transfected into HEK-293 cells using CaCl2; supernatant and cells were collected 48–72 h later. Virus was precipitated using (NH4)2SO4, then the precipitate was re-suspended and purified on an iodixanol gradient by ultracentrifugation. Further concentration of virus was done using an Amicon Ultra-100 K filter unit (Millipore).

AAV Production Using 293 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
AAV-293 cells (Agilent Technologies) were transfected with AAV vectors (pAAV-LStopL-GFP-shRNAmirs) and helper vectors (pAd helper vector and pAAV2/5 packaging vector) following a standard CaCl2 method with some modifications (61 ). Transfected cells were harvested 48 hours later and lysed by three rounds of freeze-thaw cycles. The lysates were further sonicated and virus-containing fractions were precipitated by adding ammonium sulfate. Then, the viruses were enriched by OptiPrep™ density gradient ultracentrifugation at 60,000 rpm for 1.5 h, followed by concentration of viruses using Amicon Ultra-100 K filter unit (Millipore). Virus titers were estimated using a qPCR-based method to detect ITR sequence as described previously (50 (link)). The following primers and probe were used: AAV2 ITR F: 5’-GGAACCCCTAGTGATGGAGTT-3’, AAV2 ITR R: 5’-CGGCCTCAGTGAGCGA-3’, AAV2 ITR Probe: 5’-CACTCCCTCTCTGCGCGCTCG-3.’

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.
