Imaging Leaf Tissue Structure

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Areas of NV and Ven tissue on healthy and infected leaves were imaged using a SU5000 Schottky Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (Hitachi). Samples were imaged by being placed in a low-pressure mode (80 Pa), using an accelerating voltage of 10 kV, a working distance of 21–23 mm and at a tilt of between 51–53°.

Scanning Electron Microscopy of Starch Granules

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Developing kernels were collected and fixed in FAA solution (3.7% formaldehyde, 5% glacial acetic acid, and 45% ethanol) at 4°C overnight. Kernels were dehydrated in an ethanol series and kept in 100% ethanol. Additional sample preparation and scanning EM observations were performed at Interdisciplinary Center for Biotechnology Research Electron Microscopy core at the University of Florida, Gainesville, FL. Scanning EM data were collected with a Hitachi SU5000 Schottky field emission scanning electron microscope. Starch granule diameter was measured using ImageJ for three scanning EM images from each genotype and developmental stage. For particle size analysis, mature endosperm tissue was dissected and ground into fine powder with a bead mill. Endosperm powder (0.1 g) was mixed with 1 ml of ethanol and vortexed immediately before measurement with a Beckman/Coulter LS 13 320 laser diffraction particle size analyzer.

Visualizing EV Morphology and Topology using FE-SEM

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) was used for visualizing the bead morphology, topology, and EV sizes, pre- and post-EV capture. Pre-capture beads were washed 3x with ice-cold pH 4, 1x PBS, and resuspended in 25 uL washing buffer. Post-capture beads were washed 3x in ice-cold pH 8.0 1x PBS with 10 mM Tris and resuspended in 25 uL of releasing washing buffer. Each resuspension solution was gently mixed and then directly aliquoted onto a 100% acetone-cleaned Ted Pella aluminum pin stub mount with complete solution evaporation. Next, the samples were sputter-coated for 30 s with an Au/Pd target using a Denton Desk V Sputter Coater and loaded into a Hitachi SU5000 Schottky Field- Emission Scanning Electron Microscope at a high negative vacuum pressure of 10–8 torr. An incident electron beam was applied to the samples at 7 keV and a beam current of 16.7 nA. Aperture and stigmata corrections were done before sample images were obtained.

Probing Gelatin Nanoparticle Morphology by FE-SEM

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Field Emission-Scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) was used for visualizing and probing the gelatin nanoparticles’ morphology, topology, and size. Samples were first prepared through a serial dilution to a final concentration of 1×109 particles/mL, followed with homogenization by light vortexing at 3000 rpm for 10 seconds, then directly aliquoted onto a 100% acetone-cleaned, Ted Pella aluminum pin stub mount (4595 Mountain Lakes Blvd, Redding, Ca 96003), and solution was allowed to evaporate completely. Immediately, the samples were sputter coated for 60 seconds with an Au/Pd target using a Denton Desk V Sputter Coater (1259 North Church St. Bldg 3 Mooretown, NJ USA 08057), and loaded into the Hitachi SU5000 Schottky Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (20770 W. Nordhoff Street, Building 4, Chatsworth, CA 91311, United States) at a high negative vacuum pressure of 10−8 torr. An incident electron beam was applied onto the samples at 7 keV and beam current of 16.7 nA. Aperture and stigmata corrections were done before sample images were obtained.

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.
