T. forsythia ATCC 43037 cells were grown on agar plates containing 3.8% heart infusion broth (Becton Dickinson, Sparks, MD, USA), 0.005% N-acetylmuramic acid (Fisher Scientific, Pittsburgh, PA, USA), 5% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Fisher Scientific), 5 µg/mL of hemin (Fisher Scientific), 0.5 µg/mL of menadione (Fisher Scientific), and 5% yeast extract (Becton Dickinson). Cells of P. gingivalis strain 381 were grown on blood agar plates containing 3% tryptic soy agar (Becton Dickinson,), 0.5% yeast extract, 5 µg/mL of hemin, 1 µg/mL of menadione, and 5% sheep’s blood. These bacteria were cultivated under an anaerobic atmosphere (10% H2, 5% CO2, and 85% N2) at 37°C in a Forma anaerobic chamber (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), as described elsewhere.

Cultivation and Preparation of P. gingivalis
gingivalis were pelleted by centrifuge at 6000×g and suspended by neurobasal before treatment in cell culture and suspended by 100μL PBS for vivo experiments.
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.
