Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For tissues of ID8 xenografts, tumor tissues were cut into small pieces and digested using a tumor dissociation kit (Miltenyi Biotec; cat #4035581) according to the instructions, on a shaking table for 1 h. A 200-mesh stainless steel filter was used to remove the remaining mass of tissue. After centrifugation (300 g, 10 min), single immune cells were collected and resuspended in stain buffer (BD Biosciences; cat #4032357). Samples were either directly incubated with the following antibodies from BD Biosciences: CD45/cat #557659, CD3/cat #555275, CD4/cat #563151, CD8a/cat #553030, CD11c/cat #558079, CD279/cat #744546, CD274/cat #741014, MHCII/cat #746197; or incubated with Foxp3/cat #560401, ki-67/cat #561283, granzyme B/Ebioscience/cat #46-8898-82, or IFN-γ/BD Biosciences/cat #563376 after permeabilization in the dark at room temperature for 40 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.
