BALF Collection and Cell Quantification

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
BALF was collected by endotracheal intubation with 300 μl ice-cold PBS twice and then centrifuged at 500 g for 10 min at 4 °C. The supernatants were used for further ELISA. The total cells were resuspended with 50 μl PBS and counted via the Mindray BC-5000Vet automated hematology analyzer (Mindray, Shenzhen, CHN). (See Fig. 6).

The automated analyzer was used for measurements of CBC (Mindray BC-5000VET, Shenzhen
Mindray Bio-Medical Electronics Co., Ltd., Shenzhen, China) and serum chemistry profiles
(BUN, Cr, ALT, TP and albumin) (ILAB 650 Chemistry Analyzer, Diamond diagnostics,
Holliston, MA, USA). The concentration of serum SDMA was measured by commercial analyzer
(Vcheck V200, Bionote Co., Ltd., Gyeonggi-do, South Korea). The information from
manufacturer showed the close relationship between concentration of SDMA obtained from
this kit and from gold standard “I” laboratory (R2=0.9908). This method had the
lowest detecting value of 10 µg/dl and highest detecting value of 100 µg/dl. For iron
parameters, serum iron concentration and unsaturated iron binding capacity (UIBC) were
analyzed by the standard colorimetric Ferrozine method (Cobas c501, Roche Diagnostics,
Indianapolis, IN, USA). The TIBC was calculated as TIBC=UIBC + serum iron concentration.
Serum hepcidin levels were measured by Sandwich quantitative ELISA technique using canine
hepcidin (HEPC) ELISA kit (Catalogue # MBS010437; MyBiosource Inc., San Diego, CA, USA).
The percent saturation (%Sat) was calculated as the ratio of serum iron concentration to
TIBC.

Whole Blood Collection and Cardiac Biomarker Analysis

A total of 3 mL of whole blood was collected from the cephalic vein. Half a milliliter of blood was collected in an ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid (EDTA) tube for automated complete blood count (CBC) analysis (Mindray BC-5000VET, Shenzhen Mindray Bio-Medical Electronics Co., Ltd., Shenzhen, China). Another 0.5 mL of blood was collected in a lithium heparinized tube for automated biochemistry analysis (Mindray BS-800, Shenzhen Mindray Bio-Medical Electronics Co., Ltd., Shenzhen, China). The remaining blood was collected in a lithium heparinized tube; then, the plasma was collected, after centrifuging at 3000 rpm for 10 min. The plasma samples were stored at −80 °C for further analysis of the cTnI level. The concentrations of cTnI were measured with the Architect STAT highly sensitive troponin I immunoassay using an Alinity™ ci-series analyzer (Abbott Laboratories, Abbott Park, IL, USA) with a detection range of 0.001–50 ng/mL.

After envenomation in each study period of each group, blood samples were
collected into tubes with K3EDTA anticoagulant for determination of
the hematological parameters: red blood cells (RBC), hemoglobin (Hb), mean
corpuscular volume (MCV), leukocytes, platelets, neutrophils, lymphocytes, and
monocytes using an Auto-Hematology Analyzer (Mindray BC-5000 Vet, Mindray

The total number of blood samples were 200 (50 samples collected in each season). We measured neutrophils (Neu), basophils (Bas), haematocrit (HCT), the leukocytes (WBC), lymphocytes (Lymph), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), monocytes (Mon), eosinophils (Eos), percentage of neutrophils (Neu%), percentage of lymphocytes (Lymph%), percentage of monocytes (Mon%), percentage of eosinophils (Eos%), percentage of basophils (Bas%), erythrocytes (RBC), hemoglobin (HGB), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), coefficient of variation of red blood cell distribution width (RDW-CV), standard deviation of red blood cell distribution width (RDW-SD), platelet count (PLT), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW), and platelet crit (PCT) in the blood using the five-differential blood cell analyzer BC-5000 Vet (Mindray, China).

KM mice (4-6 weeks, 25 g) were intravenously administered MLipRIR NPs (100 µL, equivalent R162 concentration at 0.5 mg/kg, in saline). On day 1, 3, 5, 7 and 14, blood was collected and analyzed using a hematology analyzer (BC-5000Vet, Mindray, China). Primary blood indices, including white blood cells (WBCs), platelets (PLTs), RBCs, hemoglobin (HGB), hematocrit (HCT), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), lymphocytes, granulocytes and monocytes, were recorded to evaluate systemic toxicity.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
CLP‐operated mice were injected with PTMT‐T cell intravenously. After 12 h, 1% Evans blue dye solution in normal saline was injected intravenously into each mouse. Thirty minutes later, the mice were killed, and the peritoneal exudates were collected after being washed with normal saline (5 mL) and centrifuged at 200 × g for 10 min. The absorbance of the supernatant was read at 650 nm. The vascular permeability was expressed in terms of dye (μg per mouse), which leaked into the peritoneal cavity according to a standard curve of Evans blue dye. For assessment of leukocyte/neutrophil migration, CLP operated mice were treated with PTMT‐T cell after CLP surgery 12 h. The mice were then sacrificed and the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) were washed with 0.8 mL of normal saline.[35] BAL fluid (200 µL) was counted by auto hematology analyzer (Mindray, BC 5000 Vet) at the Chiral Material Core Facility Center of Sungkyunkwan University. The results were expressed as leukocyte/neutrophil × 105 per BAL fluid.

Twenty-four hours after the last challenge, each mouse was weighed and injected with 2% pentobarbital sodium (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) at a dose of 50 mg/kg; to collect BALF, 1.6 mL of PBS was injected into the lungs in two equal portions and repeated three times by gentle aspiration, with a fluid recovery of 80% considered satisfactory. The cell suspension was centrifuged (1500 rpm, 4 °C, 10 min), and leukocytes in BALF were counted using a whole blood analyzer (BC-5000Vet, Mindray Co.

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.
