Bacterial strains, S. aureus ATCC 25923, E. coli ATCC 25922, S. Enteritidis ATCC 13076, S. Typhimurium ATCC 13311, and S. Typhimurium UK-1 ATCC 68169, were inoculated in nutrient broth (Acumedia, Lansing, MI, USA, USA), and incubated at 37 °C for 24 h. Cultures reached a concentration of 109 CFU/mL. After the growth, the bacterial strains were serially diluted in a saline 10-fold solution up to 10−7, and dilution was plated in nutrient agar to confirm the total CFUs. A volume of 10 µL of each dilution was placed on the film’s square with and without bio-AgNP and stored in a sterile Petri dish at room temperature for 24 h. The initial cellular density in contact with films ranged from 106 CFU/cm2 to 1 CFU/cm2. After contact with bacteria, film samples were inoculated in nutrient broth and placed at 37 °C for 24 h. Bacterial growth was confirmed by samples plating in agar medium, E. coli in MacConkey Agar (Acumedia, Lansing, MI, USA, USA), S. aureus in Mannitol Salt Agar (Difco®, Tucker, GA, USA), and Salmonella sp. in SS Agar (Difco®, Tucker, GA, USA).

Approximately 1 g of glacier foreland soil sample was inoculated into 10 mL of Nutrient Broth (Acumedia, Lansing, MI, USA) and 10 mL of lysogeny broth (LB) (Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany)48 (link). The inoculated media were incubated at 20 °C for 24 hr under aerobic condition. The enriched culture was then serially diluted and 100 μl was plated on Pseudomonas Isolation Agar (17208, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) plates (Peptic digest of animal tissue, 20 g/L; Potassium sulfate, 10 g/L; Magnesium chloride, 1.4 g/L; Triclosan (Irgasan), 0.025 g/L; Agar, 13.6 g/L; pH, 7.0 ± 0.2). Agar plates were incubated at 4, 15, 20 and 25 °C for two weeks under aerobic condition. Single pseudomonads colonies were obtained and each colony was repeatedly plated on Pseudomonas Agar (P2102, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) to obtain pure isolated aerobic pseudomonads. Pure cultures were stored at 4 °C and cryopreserved in 20% (v/v) glycerol at −70 °C. Subsequently, Arctic pseudomonad strains (8–6, 6–4, psy1, psy2, and psy3) were deposited into the Korea Polar Research Institute (KPRI) based Polar and Alpine Microbial Collection (PAMC) center under the general deposit category with accession numbers PAMC 28615 to PAMC 28619, respectively.

Salmonella Enteritidis Challenge in Poultry

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols

Salmonella challenge was performed when birds were two days old. Inoculum was prepared using one colony of nalidixic-acid resistant Salmonella Enteritidis (SENal+) into nutrient broth (Acumedia, USA) containing nalidixic (100 μg/mL) acid for 24h at 37°C and then an aliquot (0.1 mL) was cultured again for four hours at 37°C. Inoculum concentration was determined by plating a serial dilution (10-1 to 10-6) onto brilliant green agar plates (Acumedia, USA) with nalidixic acid (100 μg/mL) and incubating at 37°C. Salmonella colonies were counted after 24 hours. All birds in each box were inoculated with 0.5mL of Salmonella (9.5 x 107 UFC/mL) into the crop, except sham-inoculated control birds, which were given only nutrient broth.

In Ovo Threonine Supplementation in Salmonella Challenge

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The birds were challenged with Salmonella at two days old. Inoculum was prepared using one colony of nalidixic acid-resistant Salmonella Enteritidis (SE NalR) in nutrient broth (Acumedia, USA) containing nalidixic acid (100 μg/mL) for 24 h at 37°C, and then, an aliquot (0.1 mL) was cultured again for four hours at 37°C. Inoculum concentration was determined by plating a serial dilution (10−1 to 10−6) on brilliant green agar plates (Acumedia) with nalidixic acid (100 μg/mL) and incubating at 37°C. Salmonella colonies were counted after 24 hours. All birds in each box were inoculated with 0.5 mL of Salmonella Enteritidis NalR (8.3 × 107 CFU/mL) into the crop, except the sham-inoculated control birds, who received only nutrient broth.
The birds were distributed in a completely randomized design with four treatments after being challenged with Salmonella: no in ovo Thr supplementation and sham-inoculated in the posthatch challenge (NT-SHAM), in ovo Thr supplementation and sham-inoculated (T-SHAM), no in ovo Thr supplementation and SE NalR-challenged (NT-SE), and in ovo Thr supplementation and SE NalR-challenged (T-SE).

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.
