Polypropylene ultracentrifugation tubes

Manufactured by Beckman Coulter

Polypropylene ultracentrifugation tubes are designed for high-speed centrifugation applications. They are made of polypropylene, a durable and chemically resistant material. These tubes are intended to withstand the high centrifugal forces generated during ultracentrifugation procedures.

Generating FBS-Depleted MSC-Conditioned Medium

Two million MSC were seeded in cell culture flasks with 15 ml of complete medium depleted from fetal bovine serum (FBS)-derived EVs (11 (link)). To deplete medium from FBS-EVs, 20% FBS complete medium (αMEM +1% P/S +2 mM L-Glutamine) was ultracentrifuged at 100,000 × g for 16 h in polypropylene ultracentrifugation tubes (Beckman coulter, Brea, CA). The supernatant was collected and filtered through a 0.22 μm filter (Sarstedt, Germany) to sterilize the medium, which was finally diluted with αMEM medium to the final concentration of 10% FBS for cell culture. After 48 h, the medium was collected and centrifuged at 400 × g and 2,000 × g to eliminate cells and cell debris, respectively, to obtain MSC-conditioned medium (CM).

Complete culture medium was composed of α-MEM (Sigma Aldrich) or TexMACS (Miltenyi Biotech, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) medium supplemented with 2mM L-Glutamine (Sigma Aldrich), 100U/ml Penicillin (Cepa S.L., Madrid, Spain), 100µg/ml Streptomycin (Normon Laboratories S.A., Madrid, Spain) and 10% (v/v) Heat Inactivated-FBS or Human platelet lysate (Lonza, Basel, Switzerland) for MSC and T cell culture, respectively. Plasmocin (5 µg/mL; Invivogen) was added for MSC culture.
Culture medium was depleted of bovine/human EVs by ultracentrifugation of 2x complete medium in polypropylene ultracentrifugation tubes (Beckman coulter, Brea, CA) at 100,000g for 16 h (SW28 rotor, 28000 rpm, adjusted k-Factor= 253.96). The supernatant was collected and filtered through a 0.22 µm filter (Sarstedt, Germany) to sterilize the medium, which was finally diluted to 1x working concentration with αMEM/TexMACS medium alone for cell culture.

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.
