Ammonium chloride potassium lysis buffer

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific

Ammonium-chloride-potassium lysis buffer is a solution used to lyse red blood cells during the isolation of white blood cells or other cells from whole blood samples. It is a hypotonic solution that causes the selective lysis of red blood cells, while leaving the white blood cells intact for further analysis or processing.

Harvested lung lobes from infected and uninfected mice were washed with sterile 1× DPBS following organ dissection and then digested with collagenase IV (100 U/ml in RPMI; Sigma-Aldrich) at 37°C for 45 min under agitation (200 rpm). The enzymatic reaction was stopped by adding FBS. The pulmonary cells were dispersed by passage through a 100-µm pore-size cell strainer and red blood cells depleted by the addition of ammonium-chloride-potassium lysis buffer (Gibco) at room temperature for 2 min. Cells were next washed by centrifugation (1,200 rpm for 5 min) and cell pellets resuspended in RPMI supplemented with 10% FBS and 25 µg/ml gentamicin. The resulting cell preparations were counted and then seeded (8 × 104 cells/well) in round-bottom 96-well plates for LAA, as well as cell surface and Live/Dead staining.

Human whole leukocytes were isolated by lysing erythrocytes with ammonium-chloride-potassium lysis buffer (Gibco). Human neutrophils were isolated by density gradient centrifugation using the Polymorphprep kit according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Axis-Shied). Cells were subsequently washed with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and resuspended in phenol red-free RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 2% fetal bovine serum (Gibco). For cytotoxicity assays, whole leukocytes were dispensed at 2 × 105 cells/well in a final volume of 100 μl/well in a 96-well plate. Exoprotein samples described above were added to the cells and incubated for up to 1 h at 37°C. PI (10 μg/ml) was added, and the cells were further incubated for 15 min. The cytotoxicity was measured by the fluorescence signal at 590 nm using a NovoCyte flow cytometer (Agilent Technologies) and a Cytation 5 reader (BioTek). For Transwell experiments, human HEp2 cells were cultured in 24-well plates to 80% confluence. A 0.45-μm Transwell insert (Corning) containing human neutrophils at 1 × 105 cells/well was placed in the 24-well plate. In some experiments, LukF and LukS (1 μg of each; IBT Bioservices) were added to the Transwells and incubated for up to 12 h. The cytotoxicity was monitored using a Cytation 5 reader (BioTek).

Bone Marrow Extraction for Trauma Research

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the trauma patients, bone marrow samples were obtained using an 11-gauge bone marrow biopsy needle (Argon Medical Devices, Frisco, TX) from either the ilium, femur, or tibial plateau under general anesthesia during their scheduled open reduction and internal fixation of their pelvis, acetabulum, femur, or tibia. During total hip replacement surgery, bone marrow was collected from the femoral head. A physician investigator was present in the operating room for collection of all bone marrow samples, which were obtained from the sterile field by an orthopedic surgeon to ensure consistency of the sample collection. A minimum 2 mL liquid bone marrow was obtained from each patient for purposes of this study. Healthy control bone marrow samples obtained via iliac crest biopsy under local anesthesia were purchased from Lonza (Basel, Switzerland).
Each bone marrow sample was passed through a 70 μm cell strainer into a 50 mL conical tube. Erythrocytes were then lysed by adding 3 volumes of ammonium-chloride-potassium lysis buffer (Gibco, ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA). The mixture of bone marrow and lysis buffer was gently mechanically agitated for five minutes and then centrifuged for 8 minutes at 400 g. The supernatant was decanted. This process was repeated until a white pellet was formed and suspended in 1 mL Iscove’s Modified Dulbecco’s Medium.

hUC-MSCs were suspended in ice–cold phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and were kept on ice until administration. Mice received an IV injection of 2.5 × 105 untransduced hUC-MSCs or PBS (100 μl) under anesthesia with isoflurane. Two or twenty-four hours postinjection, the animals were culled by cervical dislocation. The lungs were removed en bloc. The large airways were dissected from the peripheral lung tissue and each lung lobe was separated. The lung lobes were cut into small pieces with scissors, transferred into C-tubes (Miltenyi Biotec), and processed in digestion buffer (1 mg/ml of Collagenase D and 80 U/ml DNase I, both from Roche, in DMEM) and a GentleMACS dissociator (Miltenyi Biotec), according to the manufacturer's instructions. The lung homogenates were strained through a 70 mm nylon mesh to obtain single-cell suspensions. Red blood cells were lysed using ammonium–chloride–potassium lysis buffer (Gibco, A1049201). The resultant cells were counted using an automated cell counter (TC10, BioRad).
