Blood was collected by cardiac puncture. Serum was separated and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were used to quantify adiponectin (R&D Systems Inc., Minneapolis, MN, USA), CD163 (Cusabio Biotech, Cedarlane Laboratories Ltd, Burlington, ON, Canada), C-reactive protein (CRP; EMD Millipore Corporation, Billerica, MA, Canada), interleukin 6 (IL-6; R&D Systems Inc.), leptin (Life Technologies Inc.), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (Oxford Biomedical Research, Cedarlane Laboratories Ltd), resistin (Bertin Pharma, Cayman Chemical Company, Ann Arbor, MI, USA) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF; R&D Systems Inc.) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Absorbance was read at 450 nm in a VICTOR X5 Multilabel Plate Reader (PerkinElmer Inc., Waltham, MA, USA).

Ammonium acetate, triethylAmmonium acetate (Sigma, St. Louis, MO), and m-nitrobenzyl alcohol (Aldrich) were dissolved in HPLC grade water (Millipore, Burlington, MA) to concentrations of 100 mM. Bovine Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD) was obtained from MP Biomedicals (Santa Ana, CA), streptavidin (SA) from ProteoChem (Hurricane, UT), human hemoglobin (Hb) from Sigma Aldrich (St. Louis, MO), transthyretin (TTR) from Lee BioSolutions (Maryland Heights, MO), and C-reactive protein (CRP) from EMD Millipore (Burlington, MA). Each protein was diluted to a 50 μM stock of the protein monomer in 100 mM Ammonium acetate and passed through a size exclusion spin column (BioRad, Hercules, CA) for purification. Samples analyzed by nano-ESI were prepared as described previously by Wysocki and coworkers.16 Briefly, each protein was diluted to 4–10 μM monomer in three types of solutions: “standard” native solutions containing 100 mM Ammonium acetate; charge-reducing solutions containing 20 mM triethylAmmonium acetate (TEAA) and 80 mM Ammonium acetate; and supercharging solutions containing 20 mM m-nitrobenzyl alcohol (m-NBA) and 80 mm Ammonium acetate. All protein solutions had a final pH of approximately 7.

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.
