The equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) values of ErbB2 aptamer were determined using an enzyme-linked oligonucleotide assay (ELONA). Briefly, 96-well ELISA plates (Corning®, Sigma-Aldrich) were coated with ErbB2 (Cat. No. 1129-ER, R&D system) at 4 ºC for 16 h. The treated wells were blocked with Pierce Protein-Free (PBS) Blocking Buffer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) at room temperature for 1 h, followed by three washes with PBS. The biotin-labeled aptamers were added and incubated for 1 h at room temperature. After extensive washing with washing buffer (10 mM PBS, 0.05% Tween-20, pH 7.4), Pierce High Sensitivity Streptavidin HRP (Thermo Fisher Scientific) was added to each well to bind biotin-conjugated aptamer. After incubation for 1 h at room temperature, the plates were washed again as described above. Tetramethyl benzidine (TMB) substrate solution (Thermo Fisher Scientific) was added to each well and incubated for 30 min at room temperature. Then, the reaction was quenched by addition of 2 M H2SO4. The protein-bound aptamer-streptavidin complexes were quantified by determining the absorbance at 450 nm using GloMax® Discover System (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). The saturation curve was plotted and Kd was analyzed with Sigma Plot 12.5 (https://systatsoftware.com/products/sigmaplot/) software.

Assays were performed as previously described.19 (link) Nunc-Immuno Plate MaxiSorp 96-well plates (Thermo Fisher Scientific) were left untreated or were coated with 30 nM purified EphA2 extracellular domain (R&D Systems, Milan, Italy, CF 3035-A2) overnight at 4°C. Wells were blocked for 2 h at room temperature with PBS containing 3% BSA, washed twice with PBS, and then incubated for 2 h at room temperature in PBS with 200 nM biotinylated A40s aptamer (TriLinK Biotechnologies) or an unrelated aptamer (scrambled) as a negative control. Following two washes with PBS, samples were incubated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated streptavidin (Thermo Fisher Scientific) for 1 h at room temperature and washed twice with PBS. Signals were reveled with tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) substrate solution (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and stopped with the stop solution for TMB substrate (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Absorbance at 450 nm was measured with a Multiskan FC microplate photometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific).

GM1 ELISA was used to quantify the concentration of CT in OMV and cell-free supernatant samples as described previously (67 (link)). Equal volumes of supernatant and equal volumes of OMV samples were serially diluted. Different concentrations of purified CT with known concentrations were used as the standards. Ninety-six-well polystyrene microtiter plates were coated with GM1 ganglioside overnight, and 1% (wt/vol) fatty acid-free bovine serum albumin (BSA) was used to block the GM1-coated plates for 1 h at room temperature. Next, 12 μl of crude OMVs and 260 μl of supernatant were added to the wells in duplicate and incubated for 1 h at room temperature. Subsequently, a rabbit anti-CT polyclonal antibody (1:10,000) and then an HRP-linked goat ani-rabbit IgG antibody (1:2,000) were added to the wells and allowed to incubate for 1 h at room temperature each. For development of the CT-antibody complex, tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) substrate solution (Thermo Fisher Scientific) was used according to the manufacturer’s protocol. The color intensity in each well was measured at 485 nm in a plate reader. CT amounts in the samples were estimated by comparison to the standard curve.

ELISA for HDM-specific IgE and IgG1

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To measure HDM-specific IgE and HDM-specific IgG1 in serum, specific ELISA plates (Corning 9018) were coated with HDM (50 mg/ml). After overnight incubation, the plates were washed and blocked with 1% w/v BSA in tween. Subsequently, plates were washed and incubated with diluted serum samples for 2h. Thereafter, plates were washed and incubated for 1.5h with 1 mg/ml biotin anti-mouse IgE (553419, BD Biosciences) or 1 mg/ml biotin anti-mouse IgG1 (553414, BD Biosciences). After washing, plates were incubated for 1h with streptavidin-HRP (Sanquin, Amsterdam). Plates were washed again and incubated with 3,3′5,5′‐tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) substrate solution (eBioscience) and after 20 min of reaction at room temperature and under dark conditions, this reaction was terminated by adding 2M H2SO4. The absorbance was measured using the Promega plate reader (Leiden, the Netherlands) at 450 nm.

Detection of OVA specific IgE was performed using a homemade sandwich ELISA for OVA-IgE as described previously33 (link). Briefly, plates were coated with rat anti-mouse IgE (Clone R35-72, BD Bioscience). After blocking with 5% gelatin (Fisher Scientific), the coated plates were then incubated with serum samples and OVA-IgE standard. Monoclonal mouse anti-OVA IgE (clone E-C1, Chondrex) was used as standard. The plates were incubated with OVA-Biotin. OVA was biotinylated with EZ-Link Sulfo NHS-LC-LC-Biotin kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific).
For other allergen -specific Immunoglobulins, plates were first coated with OVA (20 μg/ml in 0.1M sodium bicarbonate buffer). After blocking with 1% BSA (Sigma), the coated plates were then incubated with serum samples, followed by incubation with a biotinylated rat anti-mouse IgE (clone R35–118, BD Biosciences PharMingen), rat anti-mouse IgG1 (clone A85–1, BD Biosciences PharMingen), or rat anti-mouse IgG2a (clone R19–15, BD Biosciences PharMingen). Avidin-HRP and Tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) Substrate Solution from eBioscience (San Diego, Calif) were used for detection. Serum levels were expressed as optical density measured at 450 nm.

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.
