Heraeus multifuge x 3 centrifuge

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United Kingdom

The Heraeus™ Multifuge™ X 3 Centrifuge is a high-performance laboratory centrifuge designed for a variety of applications. It features a microprocessor-controlled system and can achieve a maximum speed of 15,000 rpm with a maximum relative centrifugal force (RCF) of 21,382 x g. The centrifuge is equipped with a large-capacity rotor that can accommodate a range of sample containers, including microtubes, falcon tubes, and blood collection tubes.

Exosome Isolation from Cell Culture

Medium derived from both HGC27-R and KATOIII-R was processed for exosome isolation, in according to a previously published procedure (27 (link)) and as reported in the MISEV 2018 guidelines (28 (link)). Briefly, the culture medium of cells was centrifuged for 10 minutes at 1500× g (Thermo Scientific, Heraeus Multifuge X3 Centrifuge). The supernatant was transferred to a clean tube and centrifuged again at 1800× g for 10 min. Subsequently, the supernatant was carefully transferred into a sterile tube and further centrifuged first at 3000× g for 15 minutes and then at 3800× g for 15 minutes. The super-natant was ultra‐centrifuged at 75,000× g for 2 hours (BECKMAN, L‐60 Ultracentrifuge) and, the supernatant again ultra‐centrifuged at 100,000× g for 2.5 hrs. All centrifugation steps were carried out at 4 °C. The pellet consisting of purified exosomes was recovered and dispersed in 200 μL of ultrapure water for the chemical-physical characterization and protein extraction or in sterile PBS for the cultured cell. After the exosome extraction, a characterization of freshly isolated exosome samples was performed by Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) analysis, ς-Potential measurements and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) investigation as previously reported (27 (link)). The remaining sample was stored at -80°C until protein extraction was assessed.

Listeria monocytogenes Reference Strains

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Three different commonly used reference strains of L. monocytogenes (LO28, EGD-e and 10403S) were used in this study. LO28 is a serotype 1/2c, while EGD-e and 10403S both belong to serotype 1/2a. All bacterial strains were kept in cryovials supplemented with 7.0 % (vol/vol) dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO; Sigma-Aldrich, Dorset, UK) at -80 o C. Before experiments, strains were streaked onto Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) agar (LABM, Lancashire UK) and incubated overnight at 37 o C. A single colony from each plate was transferred with a sterile loop in 3 mL of BHI (LAB M, Lancashire UK) and incubated overnight at 37 o C without shaking. To prepare the final working cultures, 20 mL sterile BHI were inoculated with the overnight culture and left for incubation at 37 o C for 24 h without shaking. Cultures from stationary phase were harvested by centrifugation (Heraeus™ Multifuge™ X 3 Centrifuge, Thermo Scientific, UK) at 9000 ×g for 5 min (room temperature), washed twice using sterile Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS pH 7.1; Oxoid, Basingstoke, UK) and re-suspended in the same medium. Further serial decimal dilutions were prepared for direct plating on BHI agar. The plates were incubated for 24 h at 37°C and viable cell number was expressed as log CFU/mL.

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.
