Hippocampus and bacterial extracts were prepared in 0.5% CHAPS buffer containing complete protease inhibitor and centrifuged for 15 min at 20,000 g and 4°C, and protein concentration was determined using a Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Hippocampus and bacterial extraction supernatants, OMV and FBS samples were denatured in 6×Laemmli buffer, separated by SDS‐PAGE gel electrophoresis, and transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane. Following blocking with Odyssey blocking buffer (LI‐COR Biosciences), the membrane was incubated with primary antibodies, washed with PBS containing 0.1% Tween 20 and subsequently incubated with fluorophore‐ or HRP‐conjugated secondary antibodies. Protein bands were visualized by Odyssey Fc Imaging System (LI‐COR Biosciences) or WesternBright Quantum HRP substrate (advansta) in Amersham Imager 600 (GE Healthcare), and quantification was done in Image Studio (LI‐COR Biosciences) and Amersham Imager 600 integrated analysis software (GE Healthcare), respectively.

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.
