Wild-type (WT), C5aR1−/− and C5aR2−/− mice on a C57BL/6J genetic background (n = 5-15) were administered with recombinant mouse C5a (Sino Biological, China) at a dose of 50 μg kg-1 via intravenous injection (tail vein). After C5a injection, one drop of blood was collected from the tail tip to make a blood smear on a slide at 0, 15, 30 and 60 min. Blood smears were stained using a Microscopy Hemacolor® Rapid Staining of Blood Smear Kit (Merck, Germany). Briefly, blood smears were fixed in Hemacolor® Solution 1 (methanol). The slides were then stained with Hemacolor® Solution 2 (Eosin Y), followed by Hemacolor® Solution 3 (Azur B). The slides were washed with 1 x PBS (pH 7.2) and mounted with dibutylphthalate polystyrene xylene. Using a 20x/0.4 NA objective on an Olympus CX21 microscope, first 400 white blood cells were counted for each slide, and the proportion of PMNs (i.e., cells containing granules that are light violet) was then calculated as previously described (Wu et al., 2020 (link)).
Recombinant mouse c5a
Manufactured by Sino Biological
Sourced in China
Recombinant mouse C5a is a purified protein product produced in a mammalian expression system. It is the recombinant form of the mouse complement component C5a. C5a is a potent anaphylatoxin that plays a critical role in the inflammatory response and immune system function.

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.
