Cm1950

Manufactured by Avantor
Sourced in Germany

The CM1950 is a centrifuge designed for general laboratory use. It features a high-speed rotor capable of achieving up to 15,000 rpm and a maximum relative centrifugal force (RCF) of 21,000 g. The CM1950 is suitable for a variety of applications that require the separation of materials based on density differences.

Animals were deeply anesthetized with isoflurane before decapitation. Brains then were rapidly removed, frozen on dry ice, and embedded in tissue freezing media (Tissue-Tek O.C.T. compound). 20 µm coronal sections were prepared on a cryostat (Leica Biosystems, CM1950) and mounted onto SuperFrost Plus glass slides (VWR) at 100 µm intervals between slices in a set. Slices were rapidly refrozen once mounted, and stored at −80°C before staining. Multiplexed fluorescent in situ hybridization was performed using the ACDBio RNAscope V1 reagents and protocols. Briefly, slices were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde at 4°C for 15 min and dehydrated through washing steps in ethanol at increasing concentrations (50%, 70%, 100%) before protease digestion (Protease III, 10 min at room temperature). Probes and amplification/detection reagents were applied to the tissue sections and incubated under conditions stated in the V1 detection protocol provided by ACDBio. Sections were counterstained using DAPI provided in the V1 detection reagent kits and mounted in ProLong Gold mounting media (ThermoFisher Scientific P36934). Single-plane tiled images covering the DRN were scanned using a confocal microscope (Leica SP8X, 1.40 NA 63X magnification oil immersion objective). Tile merging was performing in the Leica LAS X software, with a 10% tile overlap and statistical blending.

Microplastic Detection in Tissues

For detection of MPs, representative post-fixed brain, lung, heart, liver, kidney, GI, and spleen samples from control and high-dose groups from both young and old cohorts were examined. Frozen embedded tissues were sectioned at 20 μm using a cryostat (Leica BioSystems, CM1950, Wetzlar, Germany) taken at −21 °C and collected onto glass slides (VWR Colorfrost® Plus, Radnor, PA, USA). The sections were allowed to dry at 30 °C for 5–10 min before being circled using a wax pen. The sections were washed for 5 min in TBS, permeabilized with 0.3% Triton X-100 (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) in TBS for 30 min, and stained with DAPI (1:5000, 5.08741.0001, MilliporeSigma, Burlington, MA, USA) for 10 min. Sections were washed again in TBS for 5 min and coverslipped (VWR, Radnor, PA, USA) with aqueous anti-fading mounting medium (20 mM Tris pH 8.0, 0.5% N-propyl gallate, 50% glycerol). Fluorescence imaging (Leica THUNDER DMi8 3D Fluorescence Imaging System, Leica Biosystems, Wetzlar, Germany and LAS X 3D Analysis Software v. 2018.7.3, Leica Biosystems, Wetzlar, Germany) was used to identify the dyed red fluorescent polystyrene particles using a TRITC (550 nm) filter.

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.
