Collagen coated image plates

Manufactured by BD

2% collagen-coated image plates are a type of laboratory equipment used for cell culture and imaging applications. They provide a surface coated with a 2% collagen solution, which can facilitate cell attachment and growth. The core function of these plates is to serve as a substrate for culturing cells and conducting various microscopic observations and analyses.

HepAD38 cells (1 χ 104) were seeded in 96-well 2% collagen-coated image plates (BD Falcon) in tet media. The next day, the cells were washed twice with PBS, and complete media containing compounds was added to the wells with 1% final DMSO concentration. At 4 days post-induction, cells were fixed at room temperature (RT) for 15 min in 4% formaldehyde, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in PBS, and blocked with 10% goat serum (Jackson ImmunoResearch) and 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) in PBS. Rabbit anti-HBV core primary antibody (Dako) (1:1,000) was bound overnight at 4°C. Samples were incubated at RT for 45 min with 1:2,000 goat antirabbit Alexa Fluor 568 secondary antibody (Invitrogen) and stained for nuclei using Hoechst 33342 (Invitrogen) or DRAQ5 (Thermo Scientific). Images were taken on a confocal laser scanning Leica TCS SP8 microscope.

Example 10

HepAD38 cells (1×104) were seeded in 96-well 2% collagen-coated image plates (BD Falcon, Bedford, Mass.) in tet media. On the appropriate days, the cells were washed twice with PBS and complete media containing compounds was added to the wells with 1% final DMSO concentration. Cells were fixed and stained on the indicated days post-induction, and the protein redistribution was analyzed from confocal images taken with a Zeiss LSM 510 Meta confocal microscope with Autostage, Multitile, and MultiTime series 4.0.31 beta software, as previously described (Liu, et al., Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 59:3482-3492, 2015). Imaging was carried out using a 40× objective, capturing 9 images per well. Images were processed using CellProfiler software (Kamentsky, et al., Bioinformatics 27:1179-1180, 2011; Carpenter, et al., Genome Biology 7:R100, 2006; Lamprecht, et al., BioTechniques 42:71-75, 2007). Additional images were taken on a confocal laser scanning Leica TCS SP8 microscope.

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.
