Summary: The 12S protocol is aimed at amplifying the hypervariable region of the mitochondrial DNA 12S rRNA gene in eukaryotes. The primers (MiFish-U-F & MiFish-U-R) used in this protocol were developed by Miya et al., 2015 for metabarcoding environmental DNA (eDNA) from fishes. Touchdown thermocycling protocols were adapted from the CALeDNA group.This work was supported by NASA grant NNX14AP62A ‘National Marine Sanctuaries as Sentinel Sites for a Demonstration Marine Biodiversity Observation Network (MBON)’ funded under the National Ocean Partnership Program (NOPP RFP NOAA-NOS-IOOS-2014-2003803 in partnership between NOAA, BOEM, and NASA), and the U.S. Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) Program Office.Citations1) Miya M et al. 2015 MiFish, a set of universal PCR primers for metabarcoding environmental DNA from fishes: detection of more than 230 subtropical marine species.

Summary: This document describes the procedure for inducing a stroke in diabetic RCS10 mice, their non-diabetic controls and NON/ShiLtJ control mice. Our initial objective was to use those RCS10 mice that did not become diabetic as the controls for the experiment to compare the effect of diabetes on stroke outcome and that data is illustrated in Figure 2. However, with further breading the numbers of non- diabetic RCS 10 mice at twenty weeks of age were so few that it became necessary to use the NON/ShiLtJ mice which are 85% genetically identical to the RCS10 mice and stroke outcome is illustrated in Figure 3.Diabetic Complications:

Summary: This protocol is folked from "ARTIC amplicon sequencing protocol for MinION for nCoV-2019" by Josh Quick to adapt it to illumina sequencers. Because the PCR products are fragmented and ligated with adapters, this protocol is not restricted to 250 PE mode of MiSeq. While the library preparation uses QiaSeq FX by Qiagen and is basically straight forward (as par kit instruction but set to 1/4 scale), some tweaks for much of simplicity and speed were added.Change from the previous version (V1): The amount of cDNA input to multiplex PCR is increased (now almost same amount to the ARTIC's original protocol) (Step 10). This change gives better results for samples with extremely low RNA copy. Amount of adapter solution input was corrected (Step 19).

Summary: This protocol explores how to run USEARCH (v11.0.667) (Edgar, 2010) on a 16s RNA dataset.USEARCH is a sequence analysis tool that offers search and clustering algorithms. Here USEARCH will be used to run a quality control on a 16S RNA dataset. This protocol uses a staggered mock community as an example (see attached files).

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.

Summary: Three alternative solutions for artificial seawater (ASW) have been tested successfully on our Botrylloides colonies. For routine work, we use commercial sea salts (CSS), for most analyses we use the Cold Spring Harbor Protocols (CSPH) and for very clean work the K-depleted Phosphate-buffered saline (K-PBS). While, CSPH and K-PBS can be prepared at 10X, CSS should be prepared at 2X directly.Mix to dissolve and adjust pH as well as salinity to your local conditions.

Summary: A real-time RT-PCR to designed to detect SARS-CoV-2 and other related sarbecoviruses. Based on sequence MN908947 made available by Professor Yong-Zhen Zhang, Fudan University, Shanghai, China. The target region encodes the nucleocapsid (N).Tested on wild-type SARS-CoV-2 virus , it is expected to be capable of detecting SARS-CoV-2, bat-like SARS and SARS virus (members of the subgenus Sarbecovirus).Limit of detection not yet determined.The performance of the assay has not been tested with low viral load samples or samples from patients who are clinically well.The sensitivity of this assay was improved with the use of the SensiFast™Probe Lo-ROX One-step kit. A single 1 mismatch at probe-binding site identified with the BetaCoV/USA/CA1/2020|EPI_ISL_406034 (GenBank MN994467.1) variant of SARS-CoV-2 (as of 23JUNE2020).Probe is in the 3'-5' (reverse complement) direction.Reverse primers were replaced in March 2020.We also recommend the ORF1ab assay (Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) real-time RT-PCR ORF1ab 2020), US-CDC-N1 assay or the E gene assay by Corman et al. (Protocol v2-1)Notes: Assay is optimised.This test has identified clinical positive cases of coronavirus disease (COVID-19)Notes: Assay is optimised.This test has identified clinical positive cases of coronavirus disease (COVID-19)
