Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The H2O2 content was analysed as per the method proposed by Patterson et al. [62 (link)]. 0.5 g of fresh sample was crushed in acetone (1 mL) and centrifuged (at 5000× g for 20 min at 4 °C). 20 µL of 20% titanium chloride in conc. HCl was added to the supernatant, followed by addition of ammonium sulphate (200 µL of 17 M, (Himedia, Mumbai, India). The precipitates formed were washed thoroughly with acetone and finally dissolved in 1.5 mL of 2 N H2SO4 (Himedia, Mumbai, India). The absorbance of the sample was measured at 410 nm. The content of H2O2 was computed by taking H2O2 as standard and recorded as μmol g−1 FW. Visualisation of accumulation of H2O2 content in leaves was done by following the protocol stated by Thordal and Christensen [63 (link)] in which leaves were immersed in 3,3′-diaminobenzidine (1%, DAB, Sigma Alrdrich, Mumbai, India) in the dark, followed by decolouration to clearly visualise the brown spots. H2O2 content in B. juncea roots was visualised by staining them with 2′,7′-dichlorofluorescin diacetate (DCF-DA, Sigma Alrdrich, Mumbai, India), following the method given by Rodriguez-Serrano et al. [64 (link)].

Optimization of Amylase Production

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
OFAT method was carried out by changing parameters of factors in a sequential manner. The factors considered for optimization were pH of the media, Incubation temperature, Carbon and nitrogen sources and presence of metal ions. The pH of the media was adjusted between 4 and 10. The incubation temperature ranged between 4 °C and 45 °C. Additional carbon sources like glucose, fructose, sucrose, dextrose, inositol, mannitol, rhamnose, maltose, lactose, trehalose, sodium citrate, arabinose (HiMedia Laboratories, Mumbai, India, LR grade) was supplemented at 10 g/L along with Starch. The effect of nitrogen source on amylase production was evaluated by replacing peptone with malt extract, beef extract, yeast extract, peptone, casitone, corn steep liquor (HiMedia Laboratories, Mumbai, India, LR grade) and inorganic nitrogen sources such as ammonium sulphate, ammonium chloride, ammonium carbonate, potassium nitrate and sodium nitrate (HiMedia Laboratories, Mumbai, India, LR grade). Various metal ions such as Fe2+, Cu2+, Mg2+, K+, Ca2+, Mn2+, Ba2+, Sn2+, Zn2+, Co2+, Ni2+at 0.5 g/L were supplemented in the media in the form of metal salts. All the experiments were performed in triplicates and the data is represented in Mean ± Standard deviation.

Ammonium Sulphate Precipitation of Protease Inhibitors

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The crude PI samples were purified using standard Ammonium sulphate precipitation. Ammonium sulphate (Hi Media) required to precipitate the protease inhibitor was optimized using 30% saturation to the crude extract. After complete dissolution of Ammonium sulphate, the solution was kept for precipitation at 4°C for 4 h. Protein precipitated was collected by centrifugation at 10,000rpm for 15 min at 4°C. The precipitate obtained after Ammonium sulphate precipitation was further dialyzed against 0.01M phosphate buffer (pH 7.5), in order to remove the Ammonium sulphate from the precipitate. Purified fractions were finally screened for protease inhibitor assay.

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.
