qRT-PCR experiments were performed in vitro. SHEDs were cultured onto the developed scaffolds or directly over conventional culture plates (control group) for 0, 7, 14 or 21 days in ODM or DMEM (n = 3). The cells were then lysed with TRIzol Reagent (Invitrogen). Total RNA was extracted according to the manufacturer’s instructions, and the quantity of RNA was assessed with a NanoDrop ND-1000 Spectrophotometer (NanoDrop Technologies).

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.
