Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Briefly, approximately 50 ml first-void morning urine sample was collected during the day of the saline infusion test. Urine sample (10 ml of urine sample was directly used for the measurement of creatinine content using a creatinine [urinary] Assay Kit, 500701-96, Cayman, USA), and the remaining sample was treated with 3 ml PMSF (10 mM) and 50 μl leupeptin (1 mg/ml) before freezing at -80°C (16 (link), 17 (link)). Urinary EVs were isolated via ultracentrifugation, as previously described by Salih et al. (18 (link)). All centrifugations were performed in an ultracentrifuge (Optima XPN-100, Beckman Coulter, USA) with an angle rotor (Type 70 Ti Rotor, Beckman Coulter, USA) at 4°C. Briefly, frozen urine was quickly thawed at 32°C and vortexed for 90 s. The urine was first centrifuged at 17,000×g for 15 min to remove high-density particles. The supernatant obtained above was ultracentrifuged at 200,000×g for 90 min to obtain a gel-like precipitate and the new supernatant was discarded. This gel-like pellet was resuspended in 1× PBS buffer (Sangon Biotech, China), and then ultracentrifuged at 200,000 × g for 90 min to obtain a new pellet containing EVs. The pellet was resuspended in 160 μL 1× PBS buffer and froze at -80°C after aliquoting.

The homogenates were placed in 50 ml centrifuge tubes and centrifuged at 12,000 rpm for 5 min. The supernatant was discarded, and the pellet was resuspended in 50 ml of 1 × PBS buffer; this step was repeated thrice. The suspension was sequentially filtered through 100, 70, 40, 10, and 5 μm filters (Erwu Industrial Co., Ltd., Shanghai, China). The filtrate was centrifuged at 12,000 rpm for 5 min, and the supernatant was discarded; 20 μl of DNase I (3 units/μl) (TransGen Biotech Co., LTD, Beijing, China), 20 μl of 10 × DNase I Reaction Buffer, and 200 μl of ddH2O were added to the pellet and mixed well. Next, the pellet was incubated at 37°C for 10 min, and then 40 μl of EDTA (25 mmol/L) was added and incubated at 65°C for 10 min. The obtained solution was centrifuged at 12,000 rpm for 5 min, the supernatant was discarded, and the pellet was used to extract DNA using an Ezup Column Bacteria Genomic DNA Purification Kit (Sangon Biotech Co., Ltd., Shanghai, China), according to the manufacturer's instructions. Three biological replicates were performed.

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.
