Plate shaker

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific

The Plate Shaker is a laboratory instrument designed to agitate and mix samples in microplate or tube formats. It provides consistent and controlled orbital motion to ensure thorough mixing of the contents. The core function of the Plate Shaker is to facilitate efficient sample preparation and homogenization in a variety of laboratory applications.

50 μl of apical and 50 μl basolateral cell culture supernatants were analyzed for cytokines using the Meso Scale Discovery (MSD) V-plex Viral Panel 1 Human Kit (Meso Scale Diagnostics, Rockville, MA) as per the manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, 1:5 dilutions of cell supernatant samples were diluted in PBS containing 1% Triton-X. Samples were added to the MSD plate along with a 7-point 4-fold serial dilution (concentrations related to certificate of analysis for each individual standard) of protein standards diluted in PBS with 1% Triton-X. The MSD plate was sealed, and samples incubated at room temperature for 2 hours on a plate shaker (ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA) at 700RPM. The plate was washed 3x in wash buffer and 25 μl of secondary antibody was added to each well. Plates were sealed and incubated at room temperature on a plate shaker at 700RPM for a further 2 hours in the dark. Plates were washed 3x with wash buffer and 50 μl of 2x read buffer (MSD R92TC) was added to each well. The plates were read on the MESO Sector S 600 (Meso Scale Diagnostics) and concentrations determined against the standard curves.

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.
