Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Primary chicken embryonic fibroblasts were prepared for constructing and propagating the recombinant VACV DIs strain that carries the gene encoding the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2. Seven-day-old chicken embryos were collected in Hanks’ Balanced Salt Solution [HBSS (−)] supplemented with 50 U/ml penicillin, 50 μg/ml streptomycin, and 0.1% glucose. After removing the eyes, brain, beak, wings, and feet from each embryo, the rest of the body was minced with scissors and digested in TrypLE Select (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, United States). The resulting chicken embryonic fibroblasts were grown in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM; Nissui Pharmaceutical, Tokyo, Japan) supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum and tryptose phosphate broth.

Isolation and Culture of Human Oral Fibroblasts

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
hOFs were isolated from individually collected buccal mucosal tissues obtained from four healthy volunteers (26–35 years old) after receiving written agreement including an informed consent at the Tokushima University Medical and Dental Hospital. Approval from the Institutional Research Ethics Committee of the University of Tokushima was obtained (Project number 708). Details on hOFs isolation have been described previously [5 (link)]. After isolation, hOFs were individually designated as hOF1 to hOF4. Among them, we failed to establish primary cell culture from hOF1, so we used three successful cell lines, hOF2, hOF3, and hOF4, for further experiments.
hOFs (hOF2, hOF3, and hOF4) were cultured in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM; Nissui, Tokyo, Japan) supplemented with 10% FBS (Nichirei Biosciences, Tokyo, Japan). Three types of hDFs derived from individuals aged 33–36 years old were purchased from the Health Science Research Resources Bank (TIG110, TIG111, and TIG114; Osaka, Japan). hDFs were cultured in Eagle's MEM (EMEM; Nissui) supplemented with 10% FBS (Nichirei Biosciences).

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.
