Because of its toxicity, methyl acetate was evaporated prior to the in vivo experiments and ethanol was used instead as a solvent. Abn-CBD was then further diluted in Tween 80 (10 %) and sterile saline. Vehicle consisted of ethanol, Tween 80 and sterile saline (1:1:8). AM630 and AM251 were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO, 99.7 %) and further diluted with vehicle. 45 min prior to the induction of TNBS colitis, mice were injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) with 5 mg/kg AM630, AM251, O-1918 or vehicle, followed by 5 mg/kg Abn-CBD, 15 min later. As a single dose of Abn-CBD was ineffective (preliminary data not shown), mice were injected twice daily for 3 days. For in vitro assays, 10 mM stock solutions (in DMSO) of Abn-CBD and the CB receptor antagonists were prepared.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The cross‐linking degree in the fish skin scaffolds has been achieved by assessing the free amine content following the method conducted by Ma and colleagues.27 The samples (3–5 mg) were socked in a solution containing 1 mL of 4% (w/v) NaHCO3 (Merck‐Millipore, USA) and 1 mL of 0.5% (v/v) tri‐nitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS) (Sigma‐Aldrich, USA) for 2 hours at 40°C. Then, 3 mL of 6 moL/L HCl (Merck‐ Millipore, USA) was added to the mixture and heated for 90 min at 60°C. The solution was diluted with distilled water, and then the absorbance was measured at 345 nm with a UV spectrophotometer (Shimadzu 160‐UV, Tokyo; Japan). The content of the free amine group was calculated using Equation (1) as follows.33, 35 N=A×V/ε×l×m, where “N” is the free amine group content (mol·g−1), “A” is the absorbance, “V” is the volume of solution (mL), “ε” = 14.600 (mL·mmol−1·cm−1), “l” is path length (cm), and “m” is the weight of the sample (mg). Then, the free amine group content (N) was used to determine the cross‐linking degree (D). The calculation was done using the following equation (Equation 2): D=N1N2/N1×100%.

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.
