Photocrosslinkable Gelatin Hydrogel

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Gelatin (Type A, 300 bloom from porcine skin), methacrylic anhydride (MA), calcium peroxide (CPO), catalase (obtained from bovine liver, 2000 – 5000 units mg−1 protein), 2-hydroxy-4’-(2-hydroxyethoxy)-2-methyl propiophenone (photoinitiator, PI), phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and Alizarin red S were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA). Dulbecco’s phosphate buffered saline (DPBS), trypsin-EDTA, and penicillin−streptomycin were purchased from Fisher Scientific. Alpha-modified Eagle’s medium (Gibco 11965–092, Invitrogen Co., USA was supplied by Invitrogen (Grand Island, NY, USA). FBS and precleaned microscope slides were obtained from Fisher Scientific (Waltham, MA, USA). The live/dead viability/cytotoxicity kit was obtained from Invitrogen (Grand Island, NY, USA). All reagents were used without further purification.

Suture Coating with PLGA and Calcium Peroxide

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PLGA (Lakeshore Biomaterials, Short Hills, New Jersey, USA) 15 per cent w/v (85 : 15) was dissolved for 3 h in dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) (Fisher Scientific, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA). Calcium peroxide (Sigma‐Aldrich, Burlington, Massachusetts, USA) 10 per cent w/w was added to the PLGA solution. The mixture was stirred for 2 h. Once all components had dissolved, the solution was transferred to a 15‐ml conical tube and stored at −80°C until use.
Vicryl™ 6/0 coated sutures with a P‐1 needle (Ethicon) were wrapped around 1‐cm glass rods and secured with tape. The glass rods were suspended into the oxygenated polymer solution for 5 min. To disperse the CPO particles evenly, samples were vortexed every minute. Sutures were placed on glass trays and allowed to dry overnight. They were then dipped into a 100 per cent ethanol solution to remove any residual DMSO. The samples were air‐dried on plastic trays for a further hour. Sutures were repackaged into the original containers and sterilized using γ radiation (1 mrad, 1 h).
A methylthiazolyldiphenyl‐tetrazolium bromide (Invitrogen™; Fisher Scientific) colorimetric assay, used to evaluate compatibility of human BJ (3T3; American Type Culture Collection (ATCC), Wesel, Germany) fibroblasts with the different suture materials, showed no toxicity (data not shown).

KG), calcium peroxide (75%, −200 mesh, Sigma Aldrich), sodium percarbonate (avail. H2O2 20–30%, Sigma Aldrich). All other chemical reagents were of analytical grade (Sigma Aldrich), and deionized water was used throughout.

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.
