Evaluating Antibiotic Effects on C. elegans

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the C. elegans assay, the detailed method is provided in the methods section of the supplemental material. In all, four to six synchronized L2 larvae were transferred to agar plates containing 10× the MIC of each antibacterial agent. Under this antimicrobial load, the food for the worms (E. coli bacterium cells) will have died (but do not lyse) during the first day of the experiment and, by the end of the experiment, the worms would have run out of food, thus the offspring would not mature. This did not affect our observations over the timescale of our experiment. Four results were recorded for 5 days: (i) number of live worms, (ii) motility (head swing and body-bending frequency per minute), (iii) growth (body length and body width), and (iv) regeneration (generation of offspring, size, number, and motility of them were considered) rates.
Multiple fluorescent sensor probes were employed, including dihydroethidium (DHE), 2′,7′dichlorofluorescin diacetate (DCFH-DA), and naphthalene-2,3-dicarboxal-dehyde (NDA), all obtained from the Invitrogen to detect the O2., ROS, and glutathione, respectively.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Aqueous solutions prepared in either LC-MS grade water or ultrapure water (Milli-Q Direct Water Purification System, MilliporeSigma, Burlington, MA, USA) were used for CE-LIF measurement. For CE-LIF detection, d/l-Ser and d/l-Asp were derivatized by reaction with naphthalene-2,3-dicarboxaldehyde (NDA) (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). A 4 μL mixture of an aliquot of the islet extract, 20 mM potassium cyanide (KCN) in 100 mM borate buffer, and 20 mM NDA in acetonitrile (ACN) was prepared in a 1:2:1 volume ratio. The mixture was allowed to react for 2 min in the dark at room temperature and then diluted to 10 μL of total volume by water. The samples were further desalted using a procedure similar to one previously used by our group [28 (link)] (see the Supplementary Materials). For quantitation using linear calibration curves, d/l-Ser or d/l-Asp standards of different concentrations ranging from 0.025–100 μM for d and 0.125–500 μM for l were prepared, NDA-derivatized as previously described, and diluted to 100 μL by water for CE-LIF analysis.

Oxidative Stress and Antioxidant Levels in Nematodes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ROS levels lead to oxidative stress, inflammation, and cellular disruption, while reduced glutathione (GSH) is a cellular antioxidant against oxidative stress, and it is essential to cellular protection [104 (link)]. Multiple fluorescent sensor probes were employed including dihydroethidium (DHE), 2′,7′-dichlorofluorescin diacetate (DCFH-DA), and naphthalene-2,3-dicarboxal-dehyde (NDA), all obtained from the Invitrogen (Carlsbad, CA, USA) to detect the O2, ROS, and glutathione, respectively.
Different time frames and exposure times were examined to find the optimal conditions to see the differences between the test groups. After the treatment of L2 nematodes with 10× MIC concentration of each PBC and antibiotics in NGM plates at 20 °C, the O2 and ROS levels were measured after 4 days, while glutathione levels were measured after 24 h. The plates were washed, and the liquid was centrifuged (6000× g) 2 times with PBS. The nematodes were exposed to DHE (20 μM), DCF (10 μM), and NDA (20 μM) probes to measure the O2, ROS, and glutathione, respectively. The nematodes were incubated with probes at 20 °C for 4 h. The liquid was gently washed 2 times with PBS buffer and the animals were examined on a fluorescence microscope (Zeiss axio imager Z1) with identical exposure time (1.5 s). Densitometry and intensity analysis was performed by Fiji software (ImageJ).

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.
