Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
AML12 mouse hepatocytes, 293T cells and HepG2 cells were purchased from ATCC. MDA-MB-231 and MCF7 cells were gifts from Donald McDonnell’s laboratory. All cell lines were cultured in DMEM High Glucose media (Sigma Cat #5796) without sodium pyruvate and were supplemented with 10% FBS (Gibco). Cells were treated with the medium-chain fatty acids sodium hexanoate (C6), sodium octanoate (C8) and sodium decanoate (C10) (Sigma) dissolved in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and sodium dodecanoate (C12) dissolved in 10% ethanol in PBS. PBS was used as the vehicle control in all experiments. In experiments containing C12 (Fig. 1F), all samples also contained final concentration of 0.1% ethanol added to the medium. Cells were counted using a Beckman Coulter Countess cell counter using trypan blue exclusion and seeded at the indicated densities. All experiments were done in complete DMEM with 10% FBS (referred to as complete media) with fatty acids or vehicle supplemented, unless otherwise noted.

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.
