Summary: The ZR Plasmid Miniprep-Classic kit is designed for efficient isolation of plasmid DNA from E. coli cell lysates using a procedure that is simple, rapid, user-friendly, and reliable. It features a modified alkaline lysis protocol together with a unique Fast Spin column to yield high-quality plasmid DNA in minutes. The ZR Plasmid Miniprep-Classic features color-coded (red, green, yellow) reagents for easy determination of complete cell lysis. The Zymo-Spin llN columns facilitate high yield plasmid DNA that is endotoxin-free. Plasmid DNA purified using the ZR Plasmid Miniprep-Classic kit is well suited for use in restriction endonuclease digestion, sequencing, DNA ligation, cloning, PCR, bacterial transformation, transfection, etc.

Summary: How to run Centrifuge version 1.0.4-beta (Kim et al. 2016) through the iMicrobe plaform.Centrifuge is a microbial classification engine that enables rapid, accurate, and sensitive taxonomic labeling of metagenomic reads and quantification of species. The system uses an indexing scheme based on the Burrows-Wheeler transform (BWT) and the Ferragina-Manzini (FM) index, optimized specifically for the metagenomic classification problem. More informations about centrifuge can be found here : https://ccb.jhu.edu/software/centrifuge/manual.shtml

Summary: Behaviorally, meals are defined as periods of intense feeding and drinking separated by periods of activity, grooming, and rest. A “meal” is the primary data unit for characterizing food intake behavior. Changes in the patterning of meals (number, size or duration) may affect food intake and energy balance indirectly. "Meal", in our SOP, is defined by a minimum food intake of 0.02g and at least 10 min between food bout events. Detailed analysis of food intake behavior includes an assessment of average meal duration, average meal size, number of meals, average inter-meal interval (IMI), as well as calculation of satiety ratio. In addition, the diurnal (light cycle/dark cycle) patterns of food intake behavior are also calculated to examine temporal shifts in feeding behavior. Meal pattern and food intake behavior is measured in the Columbus Instruments Oxymax system within a temperature and light controlled cabinet. Animals are acclimated to the facility for at least 1 week. Animals are then acclimated to the CLAMS cages and powdered diet for 48 hours and to the light and temperature-controlled chamber for 24 hours prior to testing. Analyzed data constitutes data collected from 48 hours of continuous measurement (2 light/2 dark cycles).

Summary: Paraffin sections of formalin-fixed human pancreas and isolated human islets were treated with 0.05% pronase for antigen retrieval, blocked with 2% bovine serum albumin (BSA; Sigma)/phosphate buffered saline (PBS), incubated overnight (4°C) with 10E4 (anti-HS) mAb (1/10; US Biological/Amsbio), washed and stained with AlexaFluor 488-goat anti-mouse IgM (Thermo Fisher). The same sections were washed, incubated with rabbit anti-human glucagon IgG (Abcam) or guinea-pig anti-pig insulin Ig (Dako), washed and stained with Alexafluor 568-donkey anti-rabbit IgG or AlexaFluor 568-goat anti-guinea-pig IgG (Thermo Fisher). The specificity of HS staining was checked on serial sections using IgMκ isotype control (BD Biosciences), instead of 10E4 mAb, together with anti-glucagon or anti-insulin antibody. Nuclei were stained with DAPI (0.2 μg/ml; Sigma). Sections were photographed using an automated Axio Observer inverted fluorescence microscope (Zeiss). Merged images were prepared using ZEN (version 2.3) software (Zeiss).

Summary: At CMU Libraries, each year we celebrate Love Data Week (LDW) with events, workshops, speakers, and activities to help engage campus in the world of data that surrounds us! Similar to Open Access Week, the purpose of LDW events is to raise awareness and build a community to engage on topics related to research data management, sharing, preservation, reuse, and library-based research data services. We share practical tips, resources, and stories to help researchers at any stage in their career use good data practices. We believe research data are the foundation of the scholarly record and crucial for advancing our knowledge of the world around us.CMU Libraries is proud to offer an institutional license to protocols.io, a collaborative platform for computational workflows, operational procedures, instructions/manuals, and more! It can even be used for cooking recipes! To highlight the research workflow capabilities of protocols.io, we are proud to offer several dessert recipes that are tried-and-true by our 2020 Love Data Week committee at CMU Libraries. Why not make them for a special someone this Valentine's Day?We hope you enjoy, and feel free to contact us at [email protected] if you'd like to use this platform for your research data needs!

Summary: This SOP defines the pancreas donor profile acceptable for use in the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) sponsored research in the Integrated Islet Distribution Program (IIDP). This SOP applies to all IIDP islet distribution centers using funds from the NIDDK to manufacture purified human pancreatic islets for basic research studies for IIDP approved investigators.The IIDP depends on the subcontracted human islet isolation centers to provide research investigators with human islets. It is the responsiblity of the human islet centers to obtain research quality pancreata from the Organ Procurement Organizations (OPO). Some criteria are stricter than those used by transplant centers for organ transplant donors. This protocol provides the inclusion and exclusion criteria in order to determine the proper parameters for research donors.The donor criteria also reflects the required 2020 testing for COVID-19. Positive testing for COVID-19, HIV, Hepatitis C, and Hepatitis B are examples of some exclusion criteria.References (attached)OPTN Policies Effective as of April 3 2020 [Emergency COVID-19 Policy Actions]Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network, 2020 Apr.2013 PHS Guideline for Reducing Human Immunodeficiency Virus, Hepatitis B Virus, and Hepatitis C Virus Transmission through Organ Transplantation1 Behavioral Risk Factors for Recent HIV, HBV, or HCV Infection.
