After 20 min of incubation, 1 mL trichloroacetic acid (100 mg L-1) was added to terminate the reaction. Reaction mixtures were cooled at room temperature, centrifuged at 7000 x g for 10 min and the supernatant was collected. In the next step 1 mL supernatant was mixed with 0.2 mL freshly prepared FeCl3 (0.1% w/v), incubated for 10 min at room temperature, absorbance was measured at 700 nm. Ascorbic acid was used as standard [49 (link), 51 ].

Reaction was started by adding 100 μL of 300mM ascorbic acid to the reaction mixture and incubated for 1 h at 37°C. After incubation, 500 μL reaction mixture was added to the 1 mL of TCA solution (2.8% w/v) followed by addition of 1 mL of aqueous TBA solution (1% prepared in 0.025 M NaOH containing 0.02% BHA) and incubated at 99°C in water bath (Julabo, Germany) for 15 min. Reactions were cooled at room temperature and absorbance was recorded at 532 nm. The following formula was used to calculate percent scavenging activity.

Synthesis and Optimization of APM-Functionalized Gold Nanoparticles

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To obtain APM-AuNPs, 0.4 ml of APM aqueous solution (5 mg/ml) and 200 μl of NaOH (100 mM) were added to 9.3 ml of deionized water and incubated in a water bath (Julabo, Seelbach/Black Forest, Germany) (60°C, 200 rpm) for 10 min. Then, 100 μl of HAuCl4 (100 mM) was added followed by vigorous stirring for 30 s. Finally, the mixture was incubated for an additional 50 min (60°C, 200 rpm). The effects of several parameters, such as APM concentration (3.4 × 10−6 M to 1.7 × 10−4 M), HAuCl4 concentration (1.0 × 10−4 M to 9.0 × 10−4 M), pH (2.0 to 12.0), and temperature (25°C/37°C/60°C/90°C) were systematically investigated.

To evaluate GSE-ads-DA-SLNs and DA-co-GSE-SLNs physical stability, measurements of their particle dimensions were carried out, storing at 4 °C in the refrigerator up to 3 months, as well as at 25 °C and 37 °C for up to one week and 24 h, respectively. Precisely, a water bath (Julabo, Milan, Italy), set at the temperatures of 25 °C and 37 °C, with agitation of 40 rpm/min, allowed SLN incubation for the above-mentioned time frames. At different time points, particle size was acquired according to the analysis described in Section 2.4. For each type of SLN, the assay was performed in triplicate at each temperature.

The reducing power of seaweed extracts was calculated by using ascorbic acid as standard. Different concentrations of seaweeds extracts (100–500 μg·mL−1) were mixed with 1 mL of phosphate buffer (0.2 M, pH 6.6) and 1 mL of K3Fe(CN)6 (10 mg·mL−1) and was then incubated for 20 min at 50 °C in water bath (Julabo, Seelbach, Germany). The reaction was ended by addition of 1 mL of TCA (100 mg L−1) in the reaction mixture. Supernatant was collected after centrifugation at 7000× g for 10 min at room temperature. Freshly prepared FeCl3 (0.1%, w/v) was mixed with collected supernatant and incubated for 10 min at room temperature. Absorbance was taken at 700 nm to calculate reducing power [34 (link),43 (link)].

The pineal glands were covered with a nylon mesh and placed into the culture chambers (volume 0.5 ml). The lower pool of each chamber was connected via a system of tubes and valves to the containers with culture media. The upper pool of the culture chamber was attached to a multichannel peristaltic pump (Cole Parmer, USA) and a manual fraction collector. The total volume of the superfusion set consisting of culture chamber, tubes and valves was 1.3-1.4 ml. The superfusion was performed at a flow rate of 0.1 ml/min. The medium was continuously gassed with a mixture of 95% O 2 and 5% CO 2 . The incubation was performed at 38.5 o C in a water bath (Julabo, Germany). The culture chambers were covered with translucent plastic sheets during the incubation in light and with similar light-proof sheets during the incubation in darkness. The chambers were illuminated with a full-spectrum fluorescent lamp providing light with intensity of 100 lx at the surface of sheets covering the perfusion chambers. The medium fractions were collected every 30 minutes during consecutive days designated as the day 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, and frozen at -20 o C until melatonin assay. The time-point 07.00 was taken as the beginning of day 2 and following ones.

The mucoadhesive properties of GSE/DA- SLN were assessed in Simulated Nasal Fluid (SNF) by turbidimetric measurements [65 ]. SNF was prepared after dissolution of CaCl2 2H2O (0.32 mg/mL), KCl (1.29 mg/mL) and NaCl (7.45 mg/mL) in water at pH values in the range 5–6 [66 (link)].
To 6 mL of freshly prepared mucin dispersions in SNF (1 mg/mL) held in a water bath (Julabo, Milan, Italy) at 37 °C under stirring (150 rpm), freeze-dried GSE/DA-SLN, previously dispersed in 6 mL of SNF, were added. The turbidity of the stirred mixture at 37 °C was measured at 0, 2, 5, 7 and 24 h at the wavelength of 650 nm using a Perkin-Elmer Lambda Bio 20 spectrophotometer. HEC dissolved in SNF (0.4 mg/mL) was taken as a positive control. Each experiment was performed in triplicate and the results are expressed as mean ± standard deviation of each mean.

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.
