Cytotoxicity Assessment of Milk Fractions

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
IPEC-J2 and Caco-2/15 cells were seeded at a density of 104 cells/well in a ninety-six-well plate and allowed to adhere to the plate overnight. Cells were further incubated for 24 h with increasing doses of milk fractions (0, 0·1, 1 and 10 mg/ml) in the serum-deprived culture medium. Cell proliferation was measured using the 2,3-bis-(2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium-5-carboxanilide (XTT; InVitrogen), which assess cell viability and proliferation as a function of redox potential. Briefly, fresh 2,3-bis-(2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium-5-carboxanilide stock solution (1 mg/ml in PBS) was prepared, and PMS (phenazine methosulfate 15 mg/ml in PBS, store in dark and −20°C) was diluted 1:100 in PBS. PMS was added to 2,3-bis-(2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium-5-carboxanilide solution (40:1), and 50 µl of the mix was added to each wells. Cells were incubated for 1 h before the absorbance was measured at 450/630 nm. The absorbance in untreated cells (0·0 mg/ml) was set as 100 %. In total, four independent experiments were done in triplicate.

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.
