For the assessment of the saccharin contents, aliquots of each sample were analyzed via the HPLC method that is described by Weinert et al. [18 (link)]. The HPLC system used consists of the Jasco liquid chromatography (Jasco Co., Easton, MD, USA) equipped with the Jasco PU-980 pump, an UV-Vis detector set to 254 nm, and the Rheodyne 20-µL injector. The Phenomenex LC-18 analytical column with the parameters of 250 mm × 4.6 mm (i.d.) (Phenomenex Co., Torrance, CA, USA) was used with packing material of a 5-µm particle size. The mobile-phase consisted of a mixture of 20% (v/v) reagent-grade glacial acetic acid in water, which was buffered to a pH 3.0 using a saturated sodium acetate solution. Before the injection, the samples were filtered through the Millex-HV 0.45-µm membrane filter (Millipore Co., Temecula, CA, USA) and this was followed by an ultra-sonication. A calibration curve was also prepared using a standard concentration between 50 and 600 mg/L.

The quantification of the compounds with antibiofilm activity was performed by analytical high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The analytical HPLC was carried out using an instrument equipped with a Jasco PU-980 pump (Jasco Co., Inc.), a UV-2075 Plus detector (Jasco), and a Capcell Pak C18 reversed-phase column (5 µm, φ 4.6 × 250 mm; Osaka Soda). The 70% EtOH extract of the Chiang Mai propolis was analyzed using the following gradient program, with MeCN/H 2 O (in 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid) = 30:70 (0 min)-100:0 (80 min)-100:0 (90 min). The detection wavelength was set at 320 nm to detect the target compounds. Abyssinone V (1) isolated from Chiang Mai propolis was used as the standard to obtain a calibration curve for the compounds. The LOD and LOQ were determined at signal-to-noise ratios of 3 and 10, respectively. The 70% EtOH extract of the Chiang Mai propolis was analyzed 3 times, and the standard deviation was calculated. To correct for the compound loss occurring during the sample preparation, a spike test was conducted using 1. The recovery rate was calculated from the area value of the chromatogram obtained by HPLC (n = 3) and the amount of 1 added.

Lipid peroxide content was determined in the form of malondialdehyde (MDA) as a thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS). In brief, an aliquot of cell lysates was pipetted into a test tube containing 0.6 mL of 0.44 M phosphoric acid. After mixing, 0.2 mL of a 42 mM thiobarbituric acid solution was placed in a 95°C dry bath for 1 h. The samples were then neutralized with 1 N NaOH in methanol before a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis was conducted. An aliquot of 20 μL of a supernatant was injected into a C18 column (4.6 × 250 mm, with a particle size of 5 μm) by using a Jasco PU-980 pump (Easton, MD, USA) with a solvent system composed of methanol and a 50 mM phosphate buffer (pH 6.8) (4 : 6, v/v) at a flow rate of 1 mL/min.

Polyphenols content was calculated with standard molecules of phloroglucinol and resorcinol; additionally, glucose and glucuronic acid standards were injected to check for possible interference of UA and sugars (Gonçalves‐Fernández et al., 2019 (link)). To ensure the reproducibility of the assays, a minimum of four injections of each extract were carried out.

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.
