Abm mycoplasma pcr detection kit

Sourced in Canada

The Abm Mycoplasma PCR detection kit is a laboratory tool designed to detect the presence of mycoplasma contamination in cell cultures. The kit utilizes a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique to amplify and identify specific mycoplasma DNA sequences. It provides a reliable and sensitive method for monitoring mycoplasma contamination in research and laboratory settings.

Generating IFIT2-depleted Oral Cancer Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Sh-control and stable IFIT2-depleted (sh-IFIT2-1 and sh-IFIT2-2) cells were generated in the human oral cancer cell line CAL27 as previously described [31 (link)]. The cells were screened for mycoplasma contamination following the manufacturer’s instructions (abm Mycoplasma PCR detection kit; Cat no. G238 Applied Biological Materials Inc. Richmond BC, Canada) and cultured as previously described [32 (link)]. We also tried to knockdown IFIT2 in other cell lines. However, based on the IFIT2 expression levels, CAL27 cells were apparently the most convenient cells for this study.

Cell Line Procurement and Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell lines used in this study LNCaP, PC3, RWPE-1 and HEK293T were procured from ATCC (Rockville, MD) between 2004 and 2017. C4-2B cells were generated by Dr. Chung [32 (link)]. These cells were routinely tested for mycoplasma. the latest mycoplasma test, performed on 1/31/2018 using abm-Mycoplasma PCR Detection Kit (Applied Biological Materials Inc. Richmond, BC) as per manufacturer recommendations, was negative. The cell lines were not independently authenticated. L-glutamine, penicillin-streptomycin and sodium pyruvate were purchased from Hyclone/Caisson. Media components and Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) were procured from Caisson and Atlanta Biologicals respectively and all other chemicals were procured from Corning. Keratinocyte-Serum Free Medium (K-SFM), bovine pituitary extract (BPE) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) were obtained from GIBCO (Germantown, MD). Crystal violet was obtained from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO), TET (3B2-0454) and TRAIL (CYT-443) were obtained from 3B Scientific Corporation (Libertyville, IL) and ProSpec-Tany Technogene Ltd. (East Brunswick, NJ) respectively. TRAIL was dissolved in distilled water and kept at −20°C until further use. All other chemicals were purchased from Sigma.

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.
