Caryopses of Zea mays cultivar Cassila (KWS, Germany) were hydroponically grown for 7 days as described in Schulz et al. (2016) (link). For the analysis of detoxification products, the seedlings were incubated with the BOA-isomers for 24h (3 seedlings/ 20 ml of 0.5 mM of one of the isomers in tap water). For analysis of BOA-6-O-glc accumulation during short term exposure, seedlings were incubated 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 min with 0.5 µM BOA-6-OH.
Analysis and determination of the detoxification products was performed by HPLC using the system and the method described below. For preparation of 500 ml incubation solution the isomers were pre-solved in 1 ml methanol and sonicated for 5 min before adding tap water.
Root extracts were performed as described in Schulz and Wieland (1998) . Peroxidase activity at living root surfaces was detected by bathing the roots (1 seedling / 15 ml Falcon tube) in 10 ml 0.1 mM acetate buffer pH 5.0 supplemented with 1.6 ml 2 mM ABTS (Roche Diagnostics, Germany) and 0.6 ml 15 mM H2O2 (Sigma-Merck, Germany). Sites with peroxidase activity immediately turned dark or black-green. Catalase activity elicited by BOA-6,5,4-OH was concluded from bubble formation according to Schellhorn and Stones (1992) (link) and Wheelis (2008) , presenting a non-destructive method.

Quantitative Analysis of scFv Binding to Immobilized Pol II

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A 96-well microtiter plate was coated with 0.3 μg of pol II per well overnight at 4°C. BSA was used as negative control. Solution was removed and wells were blocked with 150 μl of 5% milk in PBS for 1 hour at room temperature. Blocking solution was removed and 50 μl of 0–10 μM purified scFv were added, followed by incubation for 30 minutes at room temperature. Solution was removed and wells were washed with PBST, followed by 50 μl HRP-conjugated anti-Flag M2 antibody (Sigma, A8592–1MG) diluted 1:1000 in 5% milk PBS and incubation for 30 minutes at room temperature. Solution was removed, wells were washed four times with PBST, 50 ul per well of 100 ug/ml ABTS (2,2’-azino- bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (Roche, Cat # 11684302001) in 0.1 M citrate buffer pH 4.0 containing 0.01 % hydrogen peroxide were added, and A405 was recorded.

Total IgE was determined by sandwich ELISA, using a commercial test (Cat. No. 157718; Abcam, Cambridge, UK) following the manufacturer’s protocol. Specific to OVA, serum IgA and IgG and feces IgA were measured by indirect ELISA (16). The antigen (1 µg/well in 10 mM PBS, pH 7.4) was coated onto 400 Nunlock microplates (Greiner Bio-One Gmbh, Frickenhausen, Germany) and incubated at 37 °C for 1 h. Next, the plates were blocked with 1.5% gelatin diluted in PBS and incubated under the same conditions. Following blocking, the plates were washed with PBST (PBS + 0.05% Tween 20). Serial dilutions of serum and feces extracts (50 µL) were added to the plates and incubated for 1 h at 37 °C. After a washing step, the plates were incubated with HRP-labeled antibodies specific to mouse IgG (1:1000) or IgA (1:1000) for 1 h at 37 °C. The plates were washed and incubated for 1 h at RT with ABTS (Roche Diagnostics GmbH, Mannheim, Germany). The absorbance was measured at 405 nm on a Jupiter UVM spectrophotometer (ASYS-Hitech GmbH, Eugendorf, Austria). The endpoint titers (EPTs) were expressed as the reciprocal dilution of the last sample dilution of 0.1 OD above the negative control [42 (link),43 (link),44 (link),45 (link)].

Several monoclonal antibodies were generated from bCXI-immunized mice and their binding specificity was determined. Whole blood was collected from the mouse retro-orbital venous sinus on day 21 and day 70 after immunization with CII. 32 sera samples in total from each time point were measured for the anti-CII and anti-CXI antibody responses. 96-well flat-bottom ELISA plates (Nunc MaxiSorp; Denmark) were coated overnight with 5 µg/ml of purified rCXI, rCII, and bCXI, either native or denatured, or with 5 µg/ml synthetic peptides in PBS at 4°C. After the blockage with 3% non-fat milk in PBS at room temperature (RT) for 2 h, purified antibodies diluted according to a previously determined concentration and 1:1,000 diluted serum samples were incubated at RT for 2 h. The antibody titers were evaluated using HRP-conjugated anti-kappa-specific antibody (1:4,000, Southern Biotech) and ABTS (Roche) as detect system. For isotype specific assessment, biotinylated goat anti-mouse-IgM, -IgG1, -IgG2a, -IgG2b, or -IgG3 reagents (Southern Biotech) were used.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Eculizumab (50 μl of a 2 μg/ml solution) was coated onto 96-well microtiter plates (MaxiSorp; Nunc) as described previously (19 (link)). After washing, the plate was blocked with a 1% solution of BSA in PBS. Then, wells were exposed to a 1:200 dilution of a serum sample (50 μl). The samples consisted of PNH patient sera alone or mixed with NHS in ratios as specified. After washing, the C5 bound to the coated Eculizumab was detected by sequentially applying two detection antibodies (with intermediary washing): a polyclonal goat anti-human C5 antibody (Quidel), followed by a HRP-coupled donkey-anti-goat antibody, followed by color development with ABTS (Roche) in the presence of 0.03% H2O2. Absorbance was quantified at 405 nm.

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.
