Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All reagents had known analytical purity. The water used was deionized and ultrafiltrated water.
Methanol for analysis from Carlo Erba Reagents (DASIT Group S.p.A., Milan, Italy) was used for the extraction, while Aluminium oxide 90 (neutral alumina) from Merck (Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany) was used for the preliminary chromatography phase. The following solvents were used for SPE column activation and elution as well as components of the HPLC mobile phase: methanol for HPLC from Carlo Erba Reagents (DASIT Group S.p.A., Milan, Italy), acetonitrile for HPLC from Carlo Erba Reagents (DASIT Group S.p.A., Milan, Italy), and dichloromethane for analysis from Carlo Erba Reagents (DASIT Group S.p.A., Milan, Italy). Ivermectin with declared purity from Dr Ehrenstorfer (LGC Labor GmbH Augsburg, Germany) and doramectin with declared purity from Sigma-Aldrich (Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany) were used, respectively, for the fortified specimen and as an internal standard.
For each new experiment, a mixture of solvents for dilution made of acetonitrile (56%), methanol (37%), and water (7%) (v/v) and the activated neutral alumina (100 g of neutral alumina moisturized with 6 mL of deionized water) were prepared before use.
All solvents and solutions used for the HPLC system were filtered on a 0.2 μm filter.

Thirteen-day fermentation cultures were extracted with 9 volumes of methanol, followed by centrifugation at 16,000× g for 10 min. The liquid phase was passed through a 0.2 μm membrane filter and analyzed with an Agilent 1260 HPLC system (Agilent Inc., Santa Clara, CA, USA) using an Agilent Poroshell 120 Ec-C18 column (2.7 μm, 4.6 × 50 mm). The column was eluted at a flow rate of 1 mL/min for 10 min with acetonitrile:methanol:H2O (40:40:20). Metabolites were monitored at a wavelength of 245 nm. The production was calibrated with standard doramectin from Sigma-Aldrich Inc. (Indianapolis, IN, USA).

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.
