Biofilm Maturation and Antimicrobial Evaluation

To develop a mature biofilm, 106 CFU/ml of each strain was resuspended in saline (B. Braun, Germany). Next, 100 μL of this suspension were incubated at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 90 min in static conditions in a Nunc™ 96-well polypropylene MicroWell™ plate (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA). After incubation, each well was rinsed twice with 100-μL saline and 150-μL tryptic soy broth with 0.5% glucose with or without (positive control) each extract at different concentrations (32, 16 and 8 mg/mL, respectively) and, thereafter, incubated at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 24 h. Following incubation, each well was rinsed twice with 100-μL saline and 150-μL tryptic soy broth with 10% alamarBlue (BIO-RAD) (Pettit et al., 2005 (link)) and, then, incubated at 37°C and 90 rpm for 30 min (Peeters et al., 2008 (link)). After incubation, the fluorescence was measured using an excitation wavelength of 560 nm and an emission wavelength of 590 nm. This experiment was performed in eight wells per extract in triplicate for each strain (n = 24).

Complement-Dependent Cytotoxicity Screening

14 of the 64 flow cytometry samples were screened by complement-dependent cytotoxicity. 7 had class II HLA sensitization and 7 lacked allosensitization. The CDC assay was performed as described by Diaz et al., with minor modifications(9 (link)). Briefly, Cells were added to each well with 1×105 in 25 ul HBSS of Nunc 96-Well Polypropylene MicroWell Plate (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA), and incubated at 4°C for 30min with 25 ul/well of human sera treated with or without DTT (2.5mM in final) for 30min at 37°C. The cells were washed at 3 times with HBSS, then treated with 50ul/well of 11-fold dilution of Low-Tox®-H Rabbit Complement (Cedarlane, Burlington, NC) for 90min at 37°C. The cells were stained with FDA (0.5 ug/ml)/PI (2.5mg/ml, Sigma-Aldrich) at 4°C for 15min. Data were collected using a BD Accuri C6 Flow Cytometer and software (BD Accuri, Ann Arbor, MI, USA).

Evaluating RBC Lysis by Polyplexes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RBC lysis in the presence of polyplexes was evaluated to determine their hemocompatibility. Blood was collected from healthy human volunteers in tubes containing potassium EDTA (Sigma-Aldrich). Collected whole blood was centrifuged at 1,500 × g for 10 min at RT (Sorvall Legend RT; Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA), and RBCs were washed three times with PBS. To determine hemolysis, RBCs were diluted six times with PBS and incubated at RT with polyplexes (polymer:pDNA ratio 2:1 w/w) for 3 hr. The RBC-polyplex mixture was centrifuged for 10 min, and the supernatant (50 μL) was dissolved in 150 μL of 40:1 (v/v) ethanol: HCl mixture in a Nunc 96-well polypropylene MicroWell plate (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA). The absorbance was measured at 399 nm. RBCs incubated with deionized water were used as the positive control for complete lysis, and RBCs incubated with PBS served as no lysis control.

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.
