Total carotenoids content was determined as described previously (Zheng et al., 2010 (link)). Briefly, the adductor, gut and hemolymph samples were freeze-dried in a vacuum pump (ScanVac CoolSafe, LaboGene, Denmark) for 48 h, and ground to homogenous powder in a mortar. Next, 0.02 g of each sample was mixed with 1 mL acetone with shaking (200 rpm) for 1 h at 25°C in the dark. The extract was centrifuged at 5000 rpm for 5 min. The supernatant was measured with a spectrophotometer (UV2501PC, SHIMADZU, Japan) from 400 to 700 nm wave length. The TCC (μg/g dry weight) was calculated by using the extinction coefficient E (1%, 1 cm) of 1.900 at the absorption value of 480 nm (Yanar et al., 2004 (link)).

nanomaterial labels. The measurements were applied on a wavelength
scale varying from 200 to 700 nm. Steady-state measurements of the
DBDMA dye and the different prepared nanomaterials were carried out
using a JASCO FP-8200 spectrometer (JASCO, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia),
with an excitation bandwidth of 5 nm and an emission bandwidth of
5 nm, using a Xe lamp light source.

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.
