Pipecolic acid

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in Germany

Pipecolic acid is a cyclic amino acid that serves as a precursor for the biosynthesis of several plant hormones and secondary metabolites. It plays a role in plant stress responses and immune system regulation. Pipecolic acid can be used as a standard in analytical techniques for its identification and quantification in various biological samples.

Tyrosinase Inhibition Assay for Probiotic Metabolites

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Tyrosinase inhibition assays were performed using L-tyrosine (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) and L-DOPA (Sigma) as substrates for monophenolase and diphenolase, respectively, as previously reported (Noh et al., 2020 (link)) with slight modifications. The reaction mixture (140 μL) contained 110 μL of phosphate buffer (0.1 M, pH 6.5), 1 μL of mushroom tyrosinase (25,000 U mL−1, Sigma) and 20 μL of 5 mM L-tyrosine or L-DOPA with probiotic culture supernatant (final 10 and 20%, v/v). Reaction mixtures were monitored at 475 and 490 nm for dopachrome formation. All measurements were made in triplicate. To assay the tyrosinase inhibitory effects of individual metabolic compounds, candidate inhibitors (alanine, leucine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, valine, pipecolic acid, or phenyllactic acid; Sigma) were added to reaction mixtures at concentrations of 10 or 20 mM. Tyrosinase activities (%) were calculated by expressing supernatant absorbance as a percentage of the absorbance of vehicle controls.

Inducing Plant Immune Responses

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Benzothiadiazole (BTH; Syngenta) was applied by spraying a 1 mM aqueous solution onto three-week-old plants; more than twenty rosettes were harvested after 24 or 48 h. For pipecolic acid treatment five-week-old plants were either watered with 10 ml water or 1 mM D/L-pipecolic acid (Pip; Sigma-Aldrich) solution as described before (Návarová et al., 2012) ; leaves of five rosettes were harvested 48 h after the onset of the treatment for one biological sample. For ILA (Interchim) treatment, approximately twenty wild type seedlings were germinated and grown for 12 days in six-well plates under conditions described above. Then, the media of one half of the samples was replaced with fresh ½ MS and the remaining half with 500 mM ILA containing ½ MS medium. The treatment was applied for 24 h and 48 h. Finally, the shoots were harvested after washing with distilled water and blotting on tissue paper. In all cases, the harvested samples were immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen.

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.
