Quantifying PLGA Biodistribution in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Two weeks before PLGA or saline injection and imaging of mice, animals were switched to a low-fluorescence, alfalfa-free diet (Research Diets, TD.97184 (purified)), provided ad libitum. Mice (n = 1/group) were fasted overnight (12–14 h) and then injected through a penile vein with 30 mg/kg of PLGA-Eu. Four hours later, mice were euthanized and organs depicted in Fig. 1 were extracted. The organs were positioned on a low-fluorescence mat that was placed on a 96-well plate insert of Molecular Devices i3 plate reader with a TRF module (WB cartridge) and the plate was imaged using excitation of 340 nm and emission 615 nm. Large Stokes shift of europium coupled with TRF tracking allowed for minimal background auto-fluorescence and high signal-to-noise ratio imaging of PLGA disposal in the liver and throughout the digestive system. Images were analyzed using Molecular Devices SoftMax Pro 6.2 software.

Ramos-blue Cell Cytotoxicity Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Each payload (as a stock solution in DMA) was diluted in a 5× serial dilution in 10% DMSO in PBS. Ramos-blue cells (InvivoGen, cat# rmssp) were cultured using high-glucose IMDM supplied with 10% FBS according to the manufacturer’s guidelines. The medium was supplemented with 50 μg/mL penicillin, 50 μg/mL streptomycin, 100 μg/mL normocin, and 500 μg/mL zeomycin to prevent bacterial contamination. Cells were seeded (in triplicate or quadruplicate) at a density of 0.2 × 106 cells/mL per well. 135 μL of the cell suspension was added to each well in a 96-well plate along with 15 μL of the corresponding payload. Cells were incubated at 37 °C under 5% CO2 for 24 or 72 h. The cells were centrifuged at 1990 rpm for 10 min, and 40 μL of the cell supernatant was added to 160 μL of the SEAP substrate (Quanti-Blue, InVivogen cat# repqbs). After incubation at 37 °C for 24 h, the absorbance at 630 nm was determined using a Molecular Devices i3× plate reader.

Measuring Protein Diffusion Interaction

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Samples dialyzed against 10 mM histidine·HCl (pH 6.0) were diluted to 1.0 to 4.5 mg/ml in 0.5 mg/ml increments and loaded in triplicate into an AcroPrep 384-well 0.45-μm filter plate (Pall Life Sciences) set into a Greiner Bio-One UV-STAR 384-well plate. The plate sandwich was centrifuged briefly, and the apparent diffusion coefficient (Dapp) was measured in each well using a Wyatt DynaPro Plate Reader II dynamic light scattering instrument. Data were fit with the cumulants model, and the fidelity of the fit was verified by filtering the data with an SOS of 0.5. The absorbance of each well at 280 nm was determined using a Molecular Devices i3 plate reader. The mean Dapp (in cm2/s) of each triplicate sample was plotted as a function of the mean concentration (in grams per milliliter) and linearly regressed to determine the diffusion interaction parameter (kD; in milliliters per gram).

Nanoparticle Biodistribution in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Two weeks before the experiment, mice were switched to a low-fluorescence, alfalfa-free diet, provided ad libitum. Mice were fasted overnight (12-14 h) and then injected with 100 mg/kg of nanoparticles through a penile vein. Twenty four hours later, mice were euthanized and organs were extracted (depicted in Figure 3). The organs were positioned on a low-fluorescence mat that was placed on a 96-well plate insert of Molecular Devices i3 plate reader with a TRF module (WB cartridge) and the plate was imaged using excitation of 340 nm and emission 615 nm. Images were analyzed using Molecular Devices SoftMax Pro 6.2 software.

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.
