Protocol

Cell experiment:

The frequency of chondrocyte apoptosis is measured by flow cytometry with Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) and propidium iodide. A total of 1×104 treated chondrocytes are collected from each group, washed in cold PBS and incubated with Annexin V-FITC and PI at room temperature for 15 min in the dark on ice. These samples are then analyzed using a fluorescence-activated cell sorter. Cell Quest software is used to analyze the percentage of apoptosis. All tests are repeated in triplicate.

Background

FITC is a derivative of fluorescein for the labeling of amines.

Annexin V-FITC/PI is employed to detect chondrocyte apoptosis[1]. The PEI-modified CDs are conjugated with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) to fabricate CDs-FITC composites[2].

Calculation results:

Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
3. All of the above co-solvents are available for purchase on the GlpBio website.
