Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the identification, supernatants of the centrifuged culture media and Camelina seedling extracts were used. Screening and quantification were carried out using an ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC)-electrospray-mass spectrometer (MS) consisting of an ACQUITY UPLC system equipped with a Xevo TQ-S triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (Waters, Eschborn, Germany) using a Nucleodur C18 Gravity-SB column (150 × 3 mm, 3 µm; Macherey-Nagel, Düren, Germany) thermostated to 25 °C. The 59 min gradient elution was performed at a flow rate of 1 mL/min with Millipore water (Millipore GmbH, Schwalbach, Germany) with 0.1% formic acid (pH 3.0) as solvent A and acetonitril with 0.1% formic acid as solvent B (VWR International GmbH, Darmstadt, Germany, LC-MS grade). The mass spectra were recorded with an ESCi source in positive and negative full scan mode.

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.
