Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All procedures to prepare the nutrient sources are described in Yamazaki and Fujiwara 2022 . Stock solutions of 2 metre NH4Cl and NaH2PO4 · 2H2O (Fujifilm Wako) were used as nutrient sources at a final concentration of 200 mM. To the NaH2PO4 · 2H2O stock solution, 1.07 metre NaOH was added to adjust the pH to 7.4. We supplemented the nutrient sources with N-1-naphthylphthalamic acid (NPA; Naptalam Standard, Fujifilm Wako) at a final concentration of 200 µM, 4-phenoxyphenylboronic acid (PPBo, Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd, Tokyo, Japan) at 50 µM, (aminooxy)acetic acid hemihydrochloride (AOA, Fujifilm Wako) at 2 mM, paclobutrazol (PBZ, Tokyo Chemical Industry) at 2 mM or 1-aminobenzotriazole (ABT, Tokyo Chemical Industry) at 2 mM, all prepared first as stock solutions in DMSO. NPA was added as an inhibitor of auxin transport via PINs or ABCBs. PPBo, AOA, PBZ and ABT were added as inhibitors of the biosynthesis of auxins, ethylene, gibberellins and salicylic acid via inhibition of YUCCAs, 1-aminocylopropane-1-carboxylic acid synthase, P450 mono-oxygenase and benzoic acid 2-hydroxylase, respectively. In the mock condition, DMSO was added at 1% (v/v) instead of the stock solutions. All stock solutions were stored at −20°C. Nutrient sources were stored at 4°C and used within 1 month of preparation without inhibitors or 1 week with inhibitors (except that PBZ was used within 1 day).

Optimization of BiSCaO-6 Suspension pH

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Addition to 0.2 g BiSCaO-6 to 100 mL of pure water, followed by rotary mixing, generated 0.2 wt% BiSCaO-6 suspensions. First, various amounts of phosphoric acid (H3PO4), hydrochloric acid (HCl) or sulfuric acid (H2SO4) were added to 0.2 wt% BiSCaO-6 suspensions to adjust the pH to around 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.5, 12, and 12.5. After the measurement of pH with a pH meter (F-70, HORIBA Ltd., Kyoto, Japan), the form and the proportion of dispersion or flocculation to total amount were observed. Next, 0.04 wt%, 0.12 wt%, 0.2 wt%, and 0.28 wt% of Na3PO4, Na2HPO4, or NaH2PO4 (FUJI FILM Wako Pure Chemical Corp.) were added to 0.2 wt% BisCaO-6 water suspension, rotary mixed, a7nd then evaluated for pH, form, and the proportion of layer separation with flocculation to the total amount.

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.
