Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
An amount of 0.02 g of the powdered microalgae culture was placed in a 50 mL flask and 10 mL of methanol (Honeywell Speciality Chemicals, Riedel-de Haën, Germany) was added. Then, the sample was heated in an ultrasonic water bath for 30 min; subsequently, it was filtrated in a volumetric flask and diluted to 10 mL with MeOH. Test solution was prepared as follows: 500 µL of solution A was placed in a volumetric flask and diluted to 2 mL with a solution of 20 g/L aluminium chloride (Sigma-Aldrich, Switzerland) in methanol. Compensation solution consisted of 500 µL of solution A placed in a volumetric flask and diluted to 20.0 mL with MeOH. After exactly 15 min, the absorbance of the test solution was measured at 420 nm by comparison with the compensation solution. The total flavonoid content was expressed as hyperoside [114 ].

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.
