Leaf Treatment with LaCI3, DPI, and DCMU

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
LaCl3 (1 mM; Acros), 500 µM DPI (DPI, Sigma Aldrich) or 500 µM DCMU (Sigma Aldrich) solutions were made in deionized water and contained in addition 0.2% (v/v) dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO; Sigma Aldrich) and 0.1% (v/v) Tween-20 (Sigma Aldrich). Half of the surface of the leaf was submerged in LaCl3 solution for 18 h prior to the experiment. DPI and DCMU were sprayed on the leaf surface 30 min prior to the experiment. DPI was used on half of the surface of the leaf and DCMU was used on a smaller area in the center of the leaf. For control experiments, a mock solution that contained only DMSO and Tween-20 was used. The concentrations of agents were chosen based on the literature and adjusted to our particular experimental design.

Heat-Induced Programmed Cell Death

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Prior to experiments, flasks of 100 ml of 7-day-old dark-grown suspension cells were examined for viability. The flasks showing >95% viability were pooled together to ensure use of homogenous biological material for experiments. Heat treatments were performed in Grant OSL200 water bath set to 85 rpm using 100 ml of aliquots of suspension cells in 250-ml Erlenmeyer flasks (PCD induction, 54°C for 10 min; sublethal stress, 33°C for 10 min). To inhibit PCD, cells were pre-incubated with 750 µM LaCl3 (Acros Organics) for 30 min in the dark prior to HS treatment.

The protocol followed was the same as described above for RALF1 and mechanical stimulation, but seedlings were pre-incubated with one of the following inhibitors for the indicated amount of time: 2 μM concanamycin A (1 h pre-incubation; BioViotica), 30 μM wortmannin (30 min preincubation; LC Laboratories), 30 μM endosidin 9-17 (30 min pre-incubation; Carbosynth Ltd.), 50 μM MG132 (30 min pre-incubation; Enzo), 25 μM lactacystin (30 min pre-incubation; AdipoGen), 20 μM calpeptin (30 min pre-incubation; Sigma-Aldrich), 20 μM ALLN (30 min pre-incubation; MilliporeSigma), 50 μM Z-VRPR-fmk (30 min pre-incubation; Enzo), 10 μM MALT1 Inhibitor I (30 min pre-incubation; EMD Millipore Corp), and 300 μM LaCl 3 (in phosphate free ¼ MS and 1% sucrose; 15 min pre-incubation; Acros).

Characterization of Boron Nitride Nanosheets

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Trimethyl borate (B(OMe)3) was
purchased from ACROS Organics. NH3 (Linde), N2 (Merck), and Ar (Merck) gases were used. The salt concentration
during the measurements was adjusted by analytical-grade salts such
as NaCl, KCl, CsCl, MgCl2·6H2O, K2SO4, K3[Fe(CN)6] (VWR), and LaCl3 (Alfa Aesar), and they were used without further purification.
The pH of the suspensions was adjusted by HCl (VWR) and NaOH (VWR).
All measurements were carried out at 25 °C and a pH value of
7.0 ± 0.5, unless otherwise noted. High-purity water obtained
from the VWR Purity TU + machine was used for all sample preparations.
Water and all of the prepared salt solutions were filtered with a
0.1 μm syringe filter (Millex) prior to use to avoid dust contamination.
The concentration of the BNNS particles was always kept at 5 mg/L
in the light scattering measurements.

Synthesis of La1-xEuxOCl Catalysts

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The La1–xEuxOCl (where x = 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, or 1)
catalyst materials under study
were prepared by dissolving lanthanum(III) chloride hydrate (LaCl3·xH2O, Alfa Aesar, >99.9%)
and/or europium(III) chloride hydrate (EuCl3·xH2O, Alfa Aesar, >99.9%) in ethanol (absolute,
VWR), followed by precipitation using stoichiometric amounts of ammonium
hydroxide (Fisher Scientific, 25% in H2O) at room temperature.
After the dropwise addition, the precipitates were stirred for an
additional hour and subsequently centrifuged to obtain the gel. Then,
the obtained gel was washed with ethanol (absolute, VWR) and dried
at 80 °C in air. Lastly, the dried solids were calcined in a
static oven at 500 °C for 3 h using a ramp rate of 5 °C/min.

Synthesis of Colourless Powder via High-Pressure High-Temperature Method

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The title compound was prepared by high‐pressure high‐temperature synthesis using LaCl3 (Alfa Aesar, 99.99 %). The reaction conditions of either 7 GPa and 750 °C or 9 GPa and 950 °C were achieved with a hydraulic 1000 t press (Voggenreiter, Mainleus, Germany) applying the multianvil technique. An h‐BN crucible of the 18/11‐assembly size (cavity diameter=1.6 mm, cavity depth=2.3 mm) was loaded with the starting materials in a glovebox (<1 ppm H2O, <1 ppm O2). The crucible was placed inside an 18/11‐assembly sized octahedron consisting of Cr2O3‐substituted (6 %) MgO (Ceramic Substrates & Components, Isle of Wight, U.K.). Eight tungsten carbide (with 7 % Co) cubes (Hawedia, Marklkofen, Germany) with truncated edges (edge length=11 mm) were used as anvils. The sample was first pressurized then heated with 7.75 K min−1 and 300 min dwell time at 750 or 950 °C. Additional information regarding high‐pressure/high‐temperature synthesis can be found in literature.28 The product was obtained as a colourless powder, which was washed with H2O to remove residual LiCl and NH4Cl.

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.
