Variable analysis
- Presence or absence of 100 µM TUDCA (Sodium tauroursodeoxycholate)
- Structural properties of Aβ homologues assessed by Western blot analysis, circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and Thioflavin T binding
- Aggregation of Aβ homologues over time (up to 48 h)
- Aβ homologues dissolved in hexafluoro-isopropanol (HFIP) to break down β-sheet structures and disrupt hydrophobic forces, leading to monodisperse Aβ preparations
- Lyophilization to remove HFIP
- Aβ homologues solubilized in deionized water and added to an equal volume of a 2× concentrated phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.4, to a final concentration of 1 mg/ml in 1 × PBS
- Positive control: Not explicitly mentioned
- Negative control: Not explicitly mentioned

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.
