90 ti rotor

Manufactured by Beckman Coulter
Sourced in United States, Canada, Switzerland

The 90 Ti rotor is a high-speed centrifuge rotor designed for Beckman Coulter ultracentrifuges. It is capable of reaching speeds of up to 90,000 revolutions per minute (RPM) and can achieve relative centrifugal forces (RCF) of up to 436,000 x g. The rotor is made of titanium, which provides strength and durability for high-speed centrifugation applications.

Breast tissue at fifth, sixth, and seventh week was homogenized in PBS pH 7.4 in the presence of a protease inhibitor. The homogenate was centrifuged at 14 000 G for 15 min. The supernatant was transferred to a polycarbonate tube and centrifuged in a 90Ti rotor (Beckman, Brea, CA, USA) at 100,000 G for 1 h at 4 °C. The pellet was resuspended in lysis buffer for 2D Electrophoresis: 6 M urea, 50 mMDTT, 2% CHAPS in the presence of a protease inhibitors cocktail (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA).

Conditioned medium from transfected FleLa cells were centrifuged at 600 x g for 10 min to remove cells and debris, followed by a 2000 x g spin for 30 min to remove apoptotic bodies.

EV-depleted FBS was prepared by 18 h-ultracentrifugation at 100,000g, 4 °C [31 ]. 4T1 cells were seeded at 7 × 105 cells or 1.5 × 106 cells per 60 mm or 100 mm cell culture dishes respectively, and cultured in the EV-depleted medium, and microvesicles were then harvested as described previously [14 (link)]. Briefly, conditioned medium was centrifuged at 600 × g for 30 min to remove cells and debris. The supernatant was centrifuged again at 2,000 × g for 30 min to remove apoptotic bodies. Microvesicles were collected by ultracentrifugation at 20,000 × g for 60 min using Optima XL-90 Ultracentrifuge and 90Ti rotor (Beckman Coulter), or refrigerated microcentrifuge 5424 R (Eppendorf) for small volumes. Supernatants were filtered through 0.22-μm membrane filters (Thermo Scientific) with pressure to remove large vesicles. Exosomes were collected by a size-based EV isolation method with modifications [32 (link)] using 50 nm membrane filters (EMD Millipore, VMWP02500) with holders (EMD Millipore, SX0002500). Briefly, holders with 50 nm membrane filters were connected to a vacuum manifold (Qiagen), and the membrane filters were first washed with 5 – 10 mL of PBS buffer by applying vacuum. Then, the remaining EVs including exosomes in the supernatant were trapped on the membranes. When ~100 μL of sample remained, the concentrated EVs were carefully collected.

Isolation and Characterization of Outer Membrane Vesicles

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
OMVs were obtained from bacterial culture supernatants as described previously (Vanaja et al., 2016 (link)). Briefly, bacterial cultures were grown in LB broth at 37°C for 8 h to achieve abundant OMV production. Subsequently, supernatants of BL21/pEmpty or BL21/pMCR‐1 at early stationary phase were obtained by centrifuging and filtering to remove residual cells. The sterile filtrates were subsequently concentrated by ultrafiltration using a 100‐kDa Amicon centrifugal filters (Millipore), and the collected retentates were transferred to ultracentrifuge tubes and ultracentrifuged at 150,000 g for 3 h using a 90 Ti rotor (Beckman). The vesicle‐free supernatant fraction was collected, and the vesicle pellet was washed and resuspended in sterile PBS for use or stored at −80°C for further analysis. Each OMV sample was visualized by transmission electron microscope (TEM) according to standard procedures, of which particle size distribution and zeta potential were determined using a Nano ZS instrument (Malvern), the protein and LPS contents were quantified by BCA assay and Limulus Amebocyte lysate assay, respectively. The protein and LPS productions of OMVs were normalized by dividing by corresponding OD600nm value of each culture per millilitre, and these values were further divided by the OMV production of BL21/pEmpty to give rise to relative folds of OMV productions.

Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) produced by V. fischeri ES114 were prepared as previously described (61 (link), 62 (link)), with the following modification. After OMVs were separated from other extracellular products by ultracentrifugation, they were further purified by using linear 10 to 50% sucrose gradient centrifugation at 100 000 × g for 16 h at 4°C in a 90 Ti rotor (Beckman Coulter, Inc., Brea, CA). To treat squid with OMVs, 100 μg·ml−1 was added to FSW and incubated with hatchling animals for 24 h (61 (link), 62 (link)). The peptidoglycan monomer (tracheal cytotoxin [TCT]) and lipid A from V. fischeri were added to FSW for 24 h at a concentration of 1 μM and 10 μg·ml−1, respectively (25 (link), 26 (link)).

Flash-frozen hearts were ground to a fine powder in liquid nitrogen using a pestle and mortar. Samples were homogenized on ice with 30 strokes of a glass-glass homogenizer, followed by 30 strokes in a Dounce homogenizer in (in mM) 250 sucrose, 1 EDTA, 10 HEPES, 1 DTT and pH 7.4 supplemented with protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche Applied Science). Following brief centrifugation (1000 g for 5 min at 4°C), the pellet was re-homogenized in fresh homogenization buffer with 25 strokes of a tight-fitting Dounce and cleared by brief centrifugation (1000 g, 5 min, 4°C). The resulting supernatant was combined with that of the previous step. The supernatant was centrifuged at 50,000 rpm using a 90 Ti rotor (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA) for 1 hr at 4°C. The resulting membrane pellets were solubilized with rotation overnight at 4°C in 20 mM HEPES, 0.5% Triton X100, pH 7.4.

A liter of filtered phage lysate (108–109 PFU/mL) was treated with 10 µg/mL of DNase I and RNase A (Sigma Aldrich Canada, Oakville, ON, Canada) and incubated at room temperature with gentle shaking for 1 h. After centrifugation at 7000× g at 4 °C for 18 h, the pellets were resuspended in 5–10 mL SM buffer (100 mM NaCl, 8 mM MgSO4•H2O, 50 mM 1 M Tris-Cl pH 7.5) at 4 °C for 3–4 h. The collected SM buffer was centrifuged at 12,000× g at 4 °C for 10 min and the supernatant was transferred to a fresh conical tube. Cesium chloride was gradually added to the supernatant, in four portions, until the final density of the mixture reached 0.817 g/mL. The phage-CsCl mixture was centrifuged in OptiSeal tubes (Beckman-Coulter Canada, Mississauga, ON, Canada) at 155,000× g at 4 °C for 24 h (90Ti rotor, Beckman-Coulter). The resultant visible band was extracted using a 20 g needle and syringe (BD Canada) and added to a fresh preparation of CsCl in SM buffer. The centrifugation and extraction process was repeated prior to an overnight dialysis using 3500 MWCO Slide-A-Lyzer dialysis cassettes (Thermo Scientific) against 1% (w/v) ammonium bicarbonate at 4 °C. Dialysis was repeated.

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.
