Peptide Synthesis and Characterization of Mouse Vesiculin

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mouse vesiculin was synthesized in-house by the peptide synthesis group as per their published procedure in which the A- and B-peptide chains were first synthesized separately with protected cysteine residues before using regioselective disulfide bond formation;21 (link) stocks were prepared at a final concentration of 1 μg/μl in 16 mg/ml glycerol; 0.1% DDM. Insulin (Actrapid® Recombinant human-insulin 100 IU/ml; 3.47 μg/μl) was from Novo Nordisk (Bagsvaerd, Denmark). Both were diluted in physiological saline to the desired final concentrations. Blood glucose was measured in tail-vein blood (Advantage II; Roche). Core body temperature was recorded using a rectal probe (RET-3) coupled to a thermometer (Physitemp Instruments Inc).

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.
