Triapine,40 (link) Me2NNMe2,36 (link) and Dp44mT41 (link) were prepared as described previously. Ultrapure water (18.2 MΩ cm, ELGA Water purification system, Purelab Ultra MK 2, UK or 18.2 MΩ cm, Milli-Q Advantage, Darmstadt, Germany), nitric acid (≥69%, Rotipuran Supra, Carl Roth, Karlsruhe, Germany), and H2O2 (30%, Suprapur, Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) were used for the dilutions in the direct infusion ICP-MS measurement. The multielement standard solution, containing 26 elements (Quality Control Standard 26), was purchased from Labkings (Hilversum, The Netherlands). For validation purposes, the certified reference materials TM 28.4, Lake Ontario water, (Environment and Climate change, Burlington, Canada) and SeronormTM, trace elements serum L-1, (Sero AS, Billingstad, Norway) were used. The ammonium acetate buffer applied as eluent for chromatography was derived from ammonium hydroxide solution (25%, Suprapur) and acetic acid (100%, Suprapur), which were purchased by Lactan (Graz, Austria). The protein standards used in the characterization of human serum were all purchased by Athens Research and Technology (Georgia, USA). N,N-Dimethylformamide (≥99.9%), Na2HPO4 (≥99%, EMSURE®), NaH2PO4 (≥99%, EMSURE®), human serum (from human male AB plasma, USA origin), and fetal calf serum (USA origin) were all purchased by Sigma Aldrich (Steinheim, Germany).

Ultrapure water (18.2 MΩ cm, ELGA Water Purification System, Purelab Ultra MK 2, UK or 18.2 MΩ cm, Milli-Q Advantage, Darmstadt, Germany) and nitric acid (>69%, Rotipuran Supra, Carl Roth, Karlsruhe, Germany) were used for all dilutions for ICP-MS measurements. For digestion, H2O2 (30%, Suprapur, Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) was added. A multi-element stock solution and single-element standard solutions were purchased from LabKings (Hilversum, The Netherlands). Gelatin (from cold water fish skin) was obtained from Sigma-Aldrich (Vienna, Austria). Pooled human plasma was purchased from Dunn Labortechnik (Asbach, Germany). The serum reference material Seronorm (Seronorm Trace Elements Serum L-1, Norway) was reconstituted according to the manufacturer’s protocol. TM-28.4 Lake Ontario water certified reference material (Environment and Climate Change, Burlington, Canada) was used. Sample preparation and measurements were carried out in clean room classes 100.000 and 10.000, respectively. All cell culture media and reagents were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (Vienna, Austria) and all plastic dishes, plates, and flasks from StarLab (Hamburg, Germany) unless stated otherwise. Cisplatin and oxaliplatin were synthesized at the Institute of Inorganic Chemistry, University of Vienna, according to literature procedures [28 (link), 29 ].

Accelerated Degradation Tests Setup

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The accelerated
degradation tests (ADTs) were performed in a setup already described
as a part of our previous work (see also SI, Figure S1).31 (link) Briefly, the setup is composed
of a two-compartment HT-cell using 0.1 M HClO4 electrolyte
(Carl Roth, Rotipuran Supra) with a conventional three-electrode system
controlled by a potentiostat (CompactStat, Ivium Technologies). The
reversible hydrogen electrode (HydroFlex, Gaskatel) was used as a
reference (separated from the working electrode in a different compartment
via a salt-bridge), and a graphite rod was used as a counter electrode
(with respect to the temperature at which ADTs were performed, a fresh
graphite rod was used for each measurement).

Tissue Sample Digestion for ICP-MS

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Digestion was performed on the total weight of tissue samples, one kidney per tube (weight varied between 180 and 394 mg) in PFA tubes, with the addition of 6 mL 20% HNO3 (≥69%, Rotipuran Supra, Carl Roth, Karlsruhe, Germany) and 300 µL H2O2 (30%, Suprapur, Merck, Darmstadt, Germany). The suspensions were then placed on a hot plate and heated for six hours using a temperature program with a maximum temperature of 200 °C. After cooling, the clear solutions were transferred directly to 15 mL tubes with the remaining liquid removed from the PFA tubes by washing twice with 6 mL ultrapure water. The digested samples were diluted with Milli-Q water, resulting in nitric acid concentrations lower than 5% to result in an end volume of about 10 mL prior to ICP-MS measurement. Considering the total weight of the resulting sample solution, the dilution factor was calculated.

Digestion and Preparation of Whole Brain Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The experimental procedure for digestion and preparation of the samples has been described in our previous manuscripts [11 (link),12 (link)]. Briefly, the whole brains were digested in PTF vessels with a mixture of 6 mL 20% HNO3 (≥69%, Rotipuran Supra, Carl Roth, Karlsruhe, Germany) and 300 µL H2O2 (30%, Suprapur, Merck, Darmstadt, Germany). The brain samples were heated on a hot-plate for six hours using a temperature program with a maximum temperature of 200 °C. For full digestion, an additional 2 mL of concentrated HNO3 was added and the digestion program was applied one more time. After cooling down, the clear solutions were quantitatively transferred to 15 mL tubes and diluted with Milli Q water to a final volume of 10 mL.

Accelerated Degradation Tests of HT-DE Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The accelerated degradation tests (ADTs) were performed
in a setup already described as a part of our previous work.10 (link),48 (link),54 (link) Briefly, the setup was composed
of a two-compartment HT cell using 0.1 M HClO4 electrolyte
(Carl Roth, Rotipuran Supra) with a conventional three-electrode system
controlled by a potentiostat (SP-200 Potentiostat, Biologic). A reversible
hydrogen electrode (HydroFlex) was used as a reference (separated
from the working electrode in a different compartment via a salt bridge),
and a graphite rod was used as a counter electrode. To prevent evaporation
of the electrolyte due to prolonged ADTs at high temperature (60 °C),
in addition to the condenser, the other open parts of the HT-DE cell
(the capillary for the counter electrode, the capillary for the salt
bridge, and the beaker for the reference electrode) were covered by
the in-house designed PEEK caps.

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.
