Saccharomonospora viridis DSM 43017 was obtained from the China General Microbiological Culture Collection Center, Beijing (reference number CGMCC 4.1324). The strain was cultivated in a shaker flask at 45°C in STS medium (1.0% (w/v) soy peptone, 1.0% (w/v) glucose, 0.2% (w/v) yeast extract, 0.2% (w/v) NaCl, and 0.2% casein enzymatic hydrolysate, all from Biodee, Beijing, China), adjusted pH to 8.0 with NaOH prior to autoclaving.
Escherichia coli DH5α and E. coli BL21 (Tiangen, Beijing, China) (were cultivated in Luria Bertani (LB) medium at 37°C for gene cloning, sequencing, and expression. The pEASY-T3 vector (TransGen, Beijing, China) was used for plasmid gene cloning and sequencing. The plasmid pET-28a (+) (Takara Bio, Otsu, Japan) was used as an expression vector. Manganese peroxidase (MnP), azure B, brilliant green, reactive blue 19, reactive green 19, reactive yellow 2, reactive black 5, reactive red 120, malachite green and crystal violet were purchased from Sigma (St. Louis, MO, USA). All other reagents used were of analytical grade unless otherwise stated.

Diffusional Properties of Gradient Porosity Silk Catheters

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A two-compartment testing chamber was 3D printed to assess the diffusional properties of the gradient porosity silk catheters. The chambers were printed with acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) plastic. Chamber dimensions were 56 mm length × 20 mm wide × 20 mm depth, with two chambers each 26 mm length × 16 mm wide × 18 mm depth, separated by a 2 mm thick wall with a 1.5 mm diameter channel extending through the bifurcation. The non-porous ends of the dip-coated tubes were inserted into the opening of an ALZET (Cupertino, CA) osmotic pump, prefilled with 100 μL of Reactive Red 120 (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) solution. Tubes were inserted through the aperture on the impermeable septum separating the two compartments, such that the overlapping porous/non-porous region was centered in the middle of the aperture. Silicone caulking agent was used to seal the edges of the bifurcation channel to prevent flow between the chambers. Each chamber was filled with 5 mL of 1xPBS solution. Chambers and tubes were stored at room temperature on a shaker plate set at the lowest setting to induce agitation. Dye release was measured at daily time points over two weeks using a spectrophotometric analysis. Absorbance measurements at 540 nm wavelength light were recorded as a means of quantifying the release of dye over time.

Extraction and Characterization of Eriobotyra japonica Leaves

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Eriobotyra japonica (Thunb.) leaves were collected from Yangshan County, Guangdong Province, China (23°25′21.74″ N 113°03′24.25″ E). The leaves were washed several times with distilled water, shade dried for 3 days in the air, and then crushed into a good powder using the electronic blender. Thirty grams of the leaf powder was stirred with 500 mL of Milli-Q water and kept at 65 °C for 0.5 h. Then the extracts were filtered by using Whatman No. 1 filter paper after cooling to room temperature. The extract was stored at 4 °C for future use. Silver nitrate (AgNO3, 99.8%) and sodium borohydride (NaBH4, 98%) were procured from Aladdin Industrial Corporation (Shanghai, China). Reactive Red 120 and Reactive Black 5 were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (Shanghai, China).

The textile azo dyes Remazol Brilliant Violet 5R (RBV 5R) and Reactive Red 120 (RR 120) were procured from SIGMA, India. The minimal salt media (MSM) used for enrichment and decolorization was prepared by adding the following components: Na2HPO4 (12.8 g/L), KH2PO4 (3 g/L), NH4Cl (1 g/L), NaCl (0.5 g/L), 0.05 M MgSO4 (10 mL/L), 0.01 M CaCl2 (10 mL/L) and 20% glucose (30 mL/L) (Lalnunhlimi and Krishnaswamy, 2016) . All the chemicals used in the study were of high purity and analytical grade procured from Hi-Media Laboratories, Mumbai.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All steps were carried out under anoxic conditions (95% N 2 , 5% H 2 ). Around 3 g of phthalate grown cells (wet mass) were suspended in 9-12 ml buffer A and lysed using a French pressure cell. After ultracentrifugation, the supernatant was filtered through a 0.2-μm sterile filter (Filtropur S 0.2, Sarstedt) and applied to a 12 ml DEAE-Sepharose column (GE Healthcare), equilibrated with buffer A at a flow rate of 0.5 ml min -1 . The column was washed with two bed volumes of buffer A and with buffer A supplemented with 15 mM KCl (PCD) or 20 mM KCl (PCL). Fractions eluting in buffer A at higher KCl concentrations as indicated in the results section were tested for PCL/PCD activities. Activity containing fractions were concentrated and used for SDS-PAGE analysis and enzymatic assays. Other chromatography materials tested for PCL/PCD enrichment were Resource Q-Sepharose anionic exchanger, Superdex 200 10/300 Gl gel filtration (all GE Healthcare), and the affinity dyes Reactive Green 5 Agarose, Reactive Red 120, and Cibacron Blue 3GA (1 ml columns each, all Sigma-Aldrich). All columns were equilibrated with buffer A, and elution was by varying KCl, or in case of the affinity dyes, phthalate concentrations (0.1-1 M).

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.
