Emulsification of Bovine Collagen in Freund's Adjuvant

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunization grade bovine type II collagen (Chondrex Inc., Redmond, USA) was dissolved in 0.1M glacial acetic acid (Jindongtianzheng Precision Chemical Reagent Factory, Tianjin, China) at the concentration of 2 mg/ml and stirred overnight at 4°C. It was then mixed with an equal amount of Freund's complete adjuvant (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, USA) and emulsified with a homogenizer on ice. When the emulsion drop floats completely on the surface of the water without spreading out, it indicates complete emulsification [15 (link), 16 (link)].

Immunization grade bovine type II collagen (Chondrex, USA) was emulsified with an equal volume of incomplete Freund’s adjuvant. On day 0, 0.2 ​mL of the emulsion was subcutaneously injected into the tail base of the treatment group rats, followed by a booster injection on day 7. Treatment group rats were given oral gavage once a day. After administration, six rats in each group were selected for each efficacy index on days 15th and 28th.
Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC-Na) was used as a vehicle for drug and control treatments. After the onset of arthritis, the rats were divided into the following six groups (n ​= ​12); normal (CMC-Na); vehicle-treated (CIA with CMC-Na); methotrexate (MTX)-treated [(CIA with 0.2 ​mg/kg by weight (bw)]; low concentration (CIA with 1 ​mg/kg bw) LY411575-treated group; medium concentration (CIA with 5 ​mg/kg bw) LY411575-treated group; high concentration (CIA with 10 ​mg/kg bw) LY411575-treated group. Rats were administered the treatments by oral gavage once a day, and six rats from each group were tested for treatment efficacy on days 15 and 28, respectively.

After 1 week of housing, mice were sensitized by subcutaneous injection in their tails of 100 µg bovine type II collagen in an adjuvant solution for primary sensitization. The collagen adjuvant solution was prepared by the following method.
Immunization grade bovine type II collagen (Chondrex) was dissolved at a concentration of 4 mg/mL in buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0 and 150 mM NaCl) and stirred under dark conditions at 4°C overnight. The bovine type II collagen solution was emulsified with an equal amount of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA, 4 mg/ml, Chondrex), which was mixed on ice in cold room (4°C) for 15 min. Two weeks after primary sensitization, mice were secondary sensitized using the same injection procedure with 200 µg bovine type II collagen in adjuvant solution. bovine type II collagen was dissolved at a concentration of 8 mg/mL in buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0 and 150 mM NaCl) and stirred in the dark at 4°C overnight. The bovine type II collagen solution was emulsified with an equal amount of incomplete Freund's adjuvant (IFA, Chondrex), which was mixed on ice for 10 min.

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.
