All chemicals, reagents, and solvents were purchased commercially without further purification. PSMA was purchased from Novoprotein Scientific Inc. Sep-Pak Accell Plus QMA and Sep-Pak C18 Light cartridges were purchased from Waters, and a 96-well polystyrene Stripwell™ microplate was purchased from Costar. No-carrier-added Na18F and Al18F-PSMA-BCH were provided by the Department of Nuclear Medicine, Peking University Cancer Hospital.
The product was analyzed by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC; Eclipse Plus C18, 4.5 × 250 mm, 5 μm; Agilent) performed using a linear A–B gradient (15–60% of B in 15 min) with a flow of 1 ml/min. Solvents were 0.1% aqueous trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and 0.1% TFA in acetonitrile for A and B, respectively. The HPLC system was equipped with UV and γ detectors. UV absorbance was measured at 220 nm. Nuclear magnetic resonance was performed with a Bruker Avance III HD 600 MHz spectrometer, and mass spectrometry was performed with the MALDI-MS Daltonics Microflex (Bruker Daltonics, Bremen, Germany) system. Micro-PET was performed on a Super Argus PET scanner (Sedecal, Spain).

The hydroxylated BDEs, 6-OH-BDE47, 2-OH-BDE68, 4-OH-BDE68, 2-OH,6’-MeO-BDE68 (Figure 2) were isolated from marine Dysideidae sponges (Agarwal et al., 2015 (link)) or synthesized as described previously (Marsh et al., 2003 ). Each compound was characterized for purity by NMR and mass spectrometry, as detailed previously (Agarwal et al., 2015 (link)).
The uridine diphospho-14C-glucuronic acid (UDPGA), specific activity 250 mCi/mmole and 3′-phosphoadenosine-5′-phospho-35S-sulfate (PAPS), specific activity 2.99 Ci/mmole were purchased from Perkin-Elmer, Waltham, MA and diluted with unlabeled UDPGA (Sigma-Aldrich) or PAPS (Sigma) for use in assays. The unlabeled PAPS from Sigma contained PAP and therefore was purified using an anion-exchange cartridge (Sep-pak Accell plus QMA, Waters, Milford, MA) and eluting with increasing concentrations of sodium chloride. The eluted fractions were analyzed by HPLC using an anion-exchange column, Zorbax SAX, 4.6 × 250 mm, 5 μ (Agilent) with a mobile phase of 0.25 M ammonium phosphate pH 3.0, flow rate 1 mL/min and UV detection at 260 nm, selective for adenosine. Under these conditions PAP eluted at 5.0 min and PAPS at 7.5 min. Fractions shown by HPLC to contain >90% PAPS, i.e. UV260 peak at 7.5 min and no PAP were used in assays. All other chemicals were purchased from Sigma–Aldrich or Fisher Scientific (Orlando, FL).

Radiolabeled Theranostic Peptide for PET/CT and PET/MRI Imaging

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All solvents and chemicals purchased from commercial sources were of analytical grade or better and were used without further purification. DX600, NODAGA‐DX600, and DOTA‐DX600 were custom synthesized by ChinaPeptides Co., Ltd (Shanghai, China) or CSBio (San Diego, California). Sep‐Pak Accell Plus QMA and Sep‐Pak C18‐Light cartridges were purchased from Waters (Ireland). Acrodisc 25 mm syringe filter (0.22 µm) was purchased from Pall Corporation (USA). The product was analyzed by radio‐ high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) (1200, Agilent, USA) equipped with γ detector (Flow‐count, Bioscan, Washington. D.C., USA), using a C18 column (Eclipse Plus C18, 4.5 × 250 mm, 5µm, Agilent, USA). The product purity was also determined using Radio‐TLC (AR 2000, Bioscan, USA) after radiolabeling. The PET/CT imaging studies of small animals were performed on the Mira PET/CT of PINGSENG Healthcare Inc. (Shanghai, China), or microPET R4 rodent scanner (Siemens) and analyzed by ASIProVM. The Clinical PET/CT scans were obtained on a Biograph mCT Flow 64 scanner (Siemens, Erlangen, Germany) with unenhanced low‐dose CT. 68Ga‐HZ20 PET/MRI was performed on a hybrid 3.0T PET/MR scanner (uPMR790, UIH, Shanghai, China) in female volunteers.

Glu-urea-Lys (Ahx)-HBED-CC (PSMA-11) was purchased from ABX (Radeberg, Germany). AlCl3.6H2O, sodium acetate trihydrate, and acetic acid were all metal-free. HPLC eluents, water, acetonitrile, and trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) were of high-grade purity. Sep-Pak Accell Plus QMA and Sep-Pak C18-Light cartridges were from Waters. No-carrier-added 18F-fluoride was produced with the PETtrace cyclotron (GE Medical Systems, Uppsala) via an 18O (p,n) 18F reaction.

Preparation of PC 16:0/22:6;OOH Isomers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PC 16:0/22:6 was determined as a target since it was abundant in mackerel based on the analysis of the extracted phospholipid fraction. A mixture of its hydroperoxide isomers (i.e., PC 16:0/22:6;OOH isomers) was prepared as a model sample of PC-DHA;OOH.
DHA (399 mg) was esterified to LPC 16:0/0:0 (200 mg) in chloroform (26.9 mL) containing DCC (812 mg) and DMAP (234 mg) under N2 gas for 28 h at 40 °C22 (link). After the reaction, the phospholipid fraction was collected with Sep-Pak Vac Silica (35 cc, 10 g, Waters, MA, USA)17 (link). The PC 16:0/22:6 was chromatographically purified as in our previous report23 (link). PC 16:0/22:6 was further purified by removing the salt contained in the collected fraction. The purified PC 16:0/22:6 was dissolved into methanol (20 mL).
Rose bengal (0.15 mg) was added to the PC solution, and photo-oxidation was carried out by exposing the solution to LED irradiation (6000 lx, on ice) for 3 h. Rose bengal was removed with Sep-Pak Accell Plus QMA (360 mg, Waters). The eluent was dried under N2 gas. PC 16:0/22:6;OOH was purified in the same manner as the PC 16:0/22:6 purification. The total weight of obtained PC 16:0/22:6;OOH isomers was 1.6 mg after the collected eluent was dried. The sample was dissolved in chloroform (200 μL) and stored at − 80 °C until the analysis. The headspace of the sample vial was filled with N2 gas prior to storage.

with some modification (
Ueno et al., 1993
).
One milliliter of the cell-free extract previously mixed with 1 mL methanol-water (3:1, v/v) was applied onto a preconditioned Sep Pak accell plus QMA (quaternary methylammonium) cartridge (Waters Co., USA). After washing the cartridge with methanol-water (3:1, 6 mL) followed by methanol (3 mL), FB
1was eluted with 10 mL methanol containing 0.5% acetic acid. The eluate was evaporated to dryness under a stream of nitrogen at 45 °C, and the residue was dissolved in methanol-water (3:1, 800 μL). After derivatization with 200 μL o-phthaldialdehyde (OPA) reagent, HPLC injections were made within 1 min. FB

Excitation and emission wavelengths were 335 nm and 450 nm, respectively. The eluent was CH

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.
