ELISpot plates (MilliporeSigma) were coated with either IFNγ (BD Biosciences, #51–2525KZ), IL-17A (Invitrogen, #88–7371–88), or IL-5 (BD Biosciences, #51–1805KZ) capture antibodies at a 1:200 dilution in Dulbecco’s PBS (DPBS; Gibco). After overnight incubation at 4 oC, plates were washed and then blocked with complete RPMI (cRPMI) medium for at least 2 h. Splenocytes harvested as described above were plated at 2 × 105 cells per well. A subset of each sample was stimulated with PepMix SARS-CoV-2 (JPT Peptide Technologies, #PM-WCPV-S-1) at a final concentration of 1 µg/mL. Plates were then incubated at 37 °C and 5% CO2 for 48 h. After a wash with PBS with 0.1% Tween 20, 100 µL of detection antibody (IFNγ, BD Biosciences, #51–1818KA; IL-17A, Invitrogen, #88–7371–88; and IL-5, BD Biosciences, #51–1806KZ) was added at a 1:250 dilution in ELISpot diluent (eBioscience) overnight at 4 °C. Plates were washed and developed with Vector NovaRED Substrate Peroxidase (Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA; #SK-4800) for 15 min. The reaction was stopped by washing the plates with deionized water, and plates were left to dry in the dark. Spots were counted and data were analyzed using ImmunoSpot 7 software (Cellular Technology Limited, Cleveland, OH).

ELISpot plates (MilliporeSigma) were coated with either IFNγ (BD Biosciences, #51-2525KZ), IL-17A (Invitrogen, #88-7371-88), or IL-5 (BD Biosciences, #51-1805KZ) capture antibodies at a 1:200 dilution in ELISpot coating buffer (eBioscience, Waltham, MA). After an overnight incubation at 4 o C, plates were washed and then blocked with complete RPMI (cRPMI) medium for at least 2 hours. Splenocytes harvested as described above were plated at 2 x 10 5 cells per well. A subset of each sample was stimulated with PepMix SARS-CoV-2 (JPT Peptide Technologies, #PM-WCPV-S-1) at a final concentration of 1 µg/mL. Plates were then incubated at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 48 hours.

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.
