Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
K. pneumoniae strains isolated from the caecum were grown to OD660 ∼ 0.4 in tryptone soya broth (Oxoid Ltd), and used in spot assays as follows. An aliquot of culture (200 µl) was inoculated into 3 ml tryptone soya broth containing 0.3% (w/v) agarose (SeaKem LE agarose; Lonza Rockland) that had been heat-treated by microwaving and dispensed aseptically from a larger volume before cooling to 48 °C. The overlays containing bacteria were poured over 20 ml solid agar plates of autoclaved tryptone soya agar (Oxoid Ltd). Once the agar had solidified, a 10 µl spot of filtered caecal effluent was applied to the overlays, and the plates were incubated overnight at 37 °C in the anaerobic cabinet. Identical plaques were observed on all K. pneumoniae isolates; strain L4-FAA5 was used to propagate and purify an isolated phage in tryptone soya broth or reinforced clostridial and nutrient media (Oxoid Ltd). Neither calcium nor magnesium was added to media during propagations.
The ability of the purified phage to infect a panel of K. pneumoniae subsp. pneumoniae clinical isolates (Table 1) was determined using the spot assay as described above, except that nutrient agar plates were used for the base. Strain L4-FAA5 was used as a positive control.

Culturing SpPdp11 Strain for Beneficial Aquaculture

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The SpPdp11 strain was grown in tryptone soya broth (OXOID Ltd., Basingstoke, UK) supplemented with 1.5% NaCl (TSBs, 20 h, 20 °C) under continuous shaking. Contant shaking was used to wash the bacteria that were removed from the plates in sterile phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.4). The density of the bacterial suspension was resolved utilizing Coulter Z2 particle counter (BECKMAN Coulter, Barcelona, Spain), and the volume was adjusted to the target concentration (109 cfu g−1). This dose was chosen based on the health benefits in S. aurata and S. senegalensis as reported in previous studies [27 (link),29 (link)]

The production was conducted using a liquid medium in Erlenmeyer flasks for endophyte bacteria and Vibrio cholerae strains in. One loop of bacteria was inoculated into 20 mL of brain heart infusion broth (Oxoid) as a production medium and incubated at 37 °C with 120 rpm agitation for 24 h. While for actinomycetes, the isolate was inoculated into 20 mL tryptone soya broth (Oxoid) as a production medium and incubated at 28 °C with agitation at 120 rpm for 7 days as instructed in the previous study [26 ]. The culture was transferred into centrifuge tubes and centrifuged at 7798 RCF (Thermo Scientific) for 10 min. The supernatant was collected and transferred to centrifuge tubes, and subsequently centrifuged again at 7798 RCF (Thermo Scientific) for 10 min. After the second centrifugation, the supernatant was collected and used for the antibiofilm assays or stored at 4 °C for a week or at -20 °C for a month.

The Gram-negative fish pathogen A. salmonicida subsp. salmonicida CECT4237 was aerobically grown in Tryptone Soya Broth (Oxoid) at 25 ˚C. To stimulate the rainbow trout splenocytes, A. salmonicida grown in broth overnight to exponential phase was heat-inactivated at 65 °C for 1 h. In some experiments, LPS obtained from A. salmonicida was used to stimulate the cells. For this, LPS was isolated using a commercial extraction kit (iNtRON Biotechnology) following the manufacturer’s protocol. The absence of DNA and protein contamination was confirmed by SDS-PAGE and agarose electrophoresis.

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.
