The hydrodynamic diameter and ζ-potential measurements were performed by dynamic and electrophoretic light scattering, respectively, using a Zetasizer Nano ZS (Malvern Instruments, UK) device. Number weighted size distributions were used for analysis. ζ-potential measurements were performed in a 10 mM NaCl solution using the Smoluchowski approximation.
Extinction spectra of aqueous colloids of nanoparticles were recorded by an Infinite M1000 PRO spectrophotometer (Tecan, Austria).

Spectroscopic Characterization of Proteins and Metabolites

All absorption spectra were acquired in a Cary 50 Bio UV–Visible spectrophotometer. Each purified protein or metabolite was diluted to 20 μM in a buffer containing 150 mM NaCl and 50 mM Tris–HCl pH 7.4. Samples were placed in a Fisher brand quartz cuvette, and the absorbance was collected from 600 to 200 nm on the slowest scan speed.
Fluorescence emission spectra were collected on a Tecan Infinite M1000 PRO spectrophotometer. For native fluorescence, each protein was diluted to 20 μM and each metabolite was diluted to 2 μM in a buffer of 150 mM NaCl and 50 mM Tris–HCl pH 7.4. Samples were excited at 450 nm with a 5 nm bandwidth. Emission data was collected from 500 to 600 nm in 1 nm steps with a 5 nm bandwidth. All samples were measured in triplicate and plotted with Datagraph as the mean value ± standard deviation. For denatured fluorescence, each protein and metabolite were diluted as above (20 μM and 2 μM, respectively) plus 7 M guanidine hydrochloride (GuHCl). Measurements, parameters, and plotting were identical for the both the denatured and native fluorescence samples.

HUVECs were cultured in 6-well flat-bottom plates at a density of 2.8 × 105 cells/well, and the culture medium was replaced with fresh DMEM complete medium after 24 h. Then, 5 μL of Lipofectamine 8000 (Beyotime Biotechnology Inc., Shanghai, China), 125 μL of OptiMEM (Thermo Fisher Scientific), and 2.5 μg of plasmid pEX-3 with or without specific gene cDNA (GenePharma Ltd., Shanghai, China) were mixed homogeneously, left for 5 min, and added to the 6-well flat-bottom plates. After 4 h of incubation, the medium was replaced with fresh DMEM complete medium. The culture supernatant of HUVECs was collected after 48 h of incubation, during which time the plasmid showed good transfection efficiency in HUVECs.
The HepG2 cells were cultured in 12-well, flat-bottom plates at a density of 2 × 105 cells/well. After 24 h of incubation, the culture medium was replaced with the supernatants collected from HUVECs, and 20 mM APAP was added. The culture supernatant of another empty vector plasmid, pEX-3, was used as the control. After 24 h, the viability of HepG2 cells was examined using the Cell Counting Kit-8 assay. The absorbance of the solution was measured at 450 nm using an Infinite M1000 Pro spectrophotometer (TECAN Ltd., Männedorf, Germany). The absorbance of the empty vector plasmid pEX-3 control was set as 100% cell viability.

Nanoparticle size and morphology were analyzed by high‐resolution transmission electron microscopy with Titan Themis Z microscope (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Netherlands) coupled with Super‐X energy dispersive X‐ray detector. Degradation of nanoparticles was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy using Tescan MAIA 3 device (Tescan, Czech Republic) and X‐act energy dispersive detector (Oxford Instruments, High Wycombe, UK) at 25 kV accelerating voltage.
Raman spectra were measured by a Confotec MR350 confocal micro‐Raman spectrometer (SOL instruments, Belarus) under excitation with 633‐nm laser. UV–vis extinction spectra were recorded by Infinite M1000 PRO spectrophotometer (Tecan, Austria).
The hydrodynamic diameter and ζ‐potential of nanoparticles were measured by dynamic and electrophoretic light scattering with a Zetasizer Nano ZS device (Malvern Instruments, UK). Number‐size distribution was used for hydrodynamic size analysis. To measure ζ‐potential nanoparticles were incubated in 10 mm NaCl for 15 min, mobility was derived with Smoluchowski approximation.

High-throughput Bacterial Growth Measurement

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To facilitate high-throughput cell growth measurements, three individual colonies corresponding to each construct were seeded into 96-deep well plates (Eppendorf) where each well contained 100 μL LB media. Culture plates were then sealed using plate sealer and placed in an incubator shaker at 37 °C for 16 h. Then, 5 μL of the overnight culture was subcultured into fresh 100 μL LB media and incubated for 8 h, after which IPTG was supplemented to a final concentration of 0.1 mM. Protein expression proceeded at 16 °C for 18 h. To measure OD600, 10 μL of each sample was mixed with 90 μL DI water in a Costar 96-well assay plate (Corning) and OD600 of all samples was measured in an Infinite M1000Pro spectrophotometer (Tecan).

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.
