A 1 mM standard BLM solution was prepared by dissolving an appropriate amount of bleomycin sulfate (Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) in a 0.9% NaCl (saline) solution. This BLM solution was further diluted with saline to obtain BLM solution with a concentration of 10 µM. Sodium acetate and acetic acid used to make an acetate buffer (NaAc—HAc) of pH 4.5, which acted as the supporting electrolyte, were purchased from Merck. There were 1 mM stock solutions of Ni(II), Cd(II), Ca(II), V(V), Fe(III), Mg(II), Cu(II), glucose, ascorbic acid, dopamine, adenine, epinephrine, uric acid and testosterone that were prepared from Merck reagents in deionized water or ethanol (testosterone) and stored at 4 °C in the dark until the influence of interferents was examined. Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) was purchased from Merck. Ultra-purified water from a Milli-Q system (Millipore, Livingston, Scotland, UK) was used to prepare the solutions.

Colicin sensitivity was assayed as described (Nedialkova et al., 2014 (link)). Briefly, an overnight culture of colicin-producing Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium strain SL1344 (Spriewald et al., 2015 (link)) was diluted to OD600nm = 0.8, 25 μL was spotted in the center of LB agar plates containing 0.5 μg/mL mitomycin C (Sigma-Aldrich) and 100 μM diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA; Sigma-Aldrich), and grown overnight for 20 h at 37°C. To 10 mL of top agar (0.75% agar), 10 μL of an overnight culture of an individual S. Reading isolate (tester isolate) was added and gently vortexed. The top agar containing the S. Reading isolate was poured onto the plate previously spotted with strain SL1344, incubated for 20 h at 37°C, and the formation of an inhibition zone (halo) around colicin-producing SL1344 was measured to determine the sensitivity of each S. Reading isolate.

Hydrogen peroxide levels were measured following C-PAC treatment of EAC and BE cells using the Amplex Red Hydrogen Peroxide/Peroxidase kit according to the manufacturer’s recommendations (ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA). JHAD1 and OE19 EAC cells were plated at 10E3 and 15E3 cells/well, respectively in 96-well black walled, clear bottom plates (Greiner Bio One, Monroe, NC). CP-C BE cells were plated at 8E3 cells/well in the same plates. Cells adhered for 26–30 h, washed once with PBS and treated for 6 h with vehicle, C-PAC [50–100 μg/mL], the inducer 2,3-Dimethoxy-1,4-naphthoquinone (DMNQ; 20 μM final concentration; Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) and the inhibitor diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA; 100 μM final concentration; Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO). After 6 h, the supernatant was transferred to a new plate and the cells were washed. The cells, the supernatant from the cells and the reaction-no cells in medium were assayed independently for hydrogen peroxide 30 min after addition of the Amplex Red substrate. Fluorescence was measured using the SpectraMax® i3 with excitation/emission wavelengths of 545–590 nm. A minimum of 4 wells were analyzed for each treatment and the data expressed as mean relative fluorescence units ± SEM.

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.
