Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A total of 6 µL of the ajowan EOs and 594 µL of analytical-grade n-hexane (Sigma-Aldrich, Milan, Italy) were injected in split-mode (split ratio 1:50) into an Agilent 6890 N GC-MS system, endowed with a 5973 N single quadrupole detector and an autosampler 7863. As a stationary phase, a 5% phenyl-methylpolysiloxane coated capillary column (Agilent HP-5MS, 30 m length, 0.25 mm internal diameter, 0.1 μm film thickness) was used. The temperature program was set as follows: 5 min isothermal at 60 °C, then ramp at 4 °C/min to 22 °C and, finally, ramp at 11 °C/min until 280 °C, maintained for 15 min. The flow rate of the carrier gas (helium 99.5%) was 1 mL/min and both the injector and detector were at 280 °C. The mass spectra were achieved between 29.0 uma and 400.0 uma in a full scan through the electron impact mode (EI, 70 eV). The major chemical constituents of the T. ammi EOs, namely p-cymene, γ-terpinene, and thymol, as well as carvacrol, were identified using analytical standards (Sigma-Aldrich, Milan, Italy), whereas the other components were identified by combining the temperature-programmed retention indices (RIs) and the mass spectra (MS), as detailed in our previous study [59 (link)].

Curcumin extraction and dosage protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
An alcoholic extract was obtained from commercial turmeric (Curcuma Kosher, Lot 09076, AMBE Phytoextracts PVT LTD, Delhi, India). The concentration of CUR in the extract was determined by UV spectrophotometry at 230 nm, and the molecular identity was determined by the infrared spectrum compared to a CUR standard (analytical grade, Sigma Chemical Co., St. Louis, MO, USA). The food pellets were impregnated with the alcoholic extract, and then the alcohol was eliminated by evaporation at 60 °C for 4 h in darkness. The homogeneous distribution of CUR in the food pellets was corroborated by UV-spectrophotometry. The pellets containing 200 ppm of CUR (0.16 mg/g food) were dispensed as described by Nery-Flores, Mendoza-Magaña, Ramírez-Herrera, Ramírez-Vázquez, Romero-Prado, Cortez-Álvarez and Ramírez-Mendoza [37 (link)]. Consequently, each rat received approximately a dose of 5.6 mg/kg/day.

BALB/c Mice Allergy Experiment

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
BALB/c mice (specific pathogen-free grade, aged 5-6 weeks, weight 16-20 g) were purchased from the Animal Center of Guangdong Province (Guangzhou, China) and kept in a specific pathogen-free grade breeding room. This study was carried out strictly in accordance with the recommendations of the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals of the National Institutes of Health. The protocol was approved by the Committee on the Ethics of Animal Experiments of the Shenzhen University. Silkworm pupae were donated by the Sericulture and Agro-Processing Research Institute, Guangdong Academy of Agricultural Sciences (Guangzhou, China). Reagents and chemicals were analytical grade (Sigma, St Louis, MO, USA) and solvents were HPLC grade (Mallinckrodt, Lane Cove West, NSW, Australia). SDS/ PAGE/western blotting was performed by using a Mini Protean II apparatus (BioRad, Hercules, CA, USA) with 12 or 15% gels and a Tris/Tricine buffer system. Two dimensional PAGE was performed by using Immobiline IPG strips (13 cm) with a pH range of 3-10 (GE Healthcare Bio-Science, Piscataway, NJ, USA). Methacholine was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St Louis, MO, USA) and biotin-labeled goat anti-mouse IgE from Zymed Laboratories (San Francisco, CA, USA).

Quantifying Antioxidant Activities of Plant Extracts

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The antioxidant activities of POE, GA and TA were determined quantitatively using a DPPH RSA. The method was carried out using the protocol reported by Pontillas and Lapetaje (2019) . A 150-ppm stock solution of DPPH (Analytical Grade, Sigma-Aldrich Chemie GmbH, Germany) in methanol (ACS, Scharlau, Spain) was prepared. A 1000 ppm stock solution of POE, GA and TA was prepared and serially diluted to 10, 50, 100, 250 and 500 ppm. DPPH solution (2.3 mL) in methanol was added to the test samples, and the final volume was made up to 7.0 mL using methanol. After the incubation for 30 min in the dark, the absorbance of the test samples and the reference standardascorbic acid (AA) (Analytical Grade, Scharlau, Spain) was measured at 517 nm ( max ) against the blank (methanol) using the UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The percent (%) DPPH RSA for test sample concentration was calculated using Equation 3.
where A0 is the absorbance of the negative control; A1 is the absorbance in the presence of the sample.

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.
