Images of stomatal apertures were obtained by using the rhodamine 6G-staining method53 (link). For analysis of stomatal aperture, leaves were detached from rosette leaves of 4-week-old plants and incubated in the opening buffer (5 mM KCl, 10 mM MES (2-(N-morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid), 50 μM CaCl2, pH 6.15) in Petri dishes for 2 h to open the stomata. Then, the leaves were treated with the opening buffer containing 25 μM ABA, JFA1, or JFA2 for 2 h. Subsequently, the leaves were treated with the opening buffer containing with 1 μM rhodamine 6 G (Sigma) for 2 min. For intact-plant assay, 4-week-old plants were sprayed with chemical solutions containing 25 μM ABA, JFA1, or JFA2 and 0.02% Silwet L-77. Then, the plants were incubated in a growth cabinet at 22 °C under light conditions. After incubation for 3, 6, and 24 h, leaves were detached and treated with water containing 1 μM rhodamine 6 G (Sigma) for 2 min. Imaging of stomata was performed with a fluorescence microscope IX-73 (Olympus). Image analysis was performed using the ImageJ software (https://imagej.nih.gov/ij/). The width and the length of the stomatal aperture were measured, and the stomatal aperture index was calculated by dividing the aperture the length by the width. The stomatal aperture index of at least 10 stomata per leaf was calculated, with three leaves per treatment used for statistical analysis.

Measuring Quantum Yield of TDBC J-Aggregates

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To measure the QY of TDBC J-aggregates, the relative method was used following a previously published protocol.[51 (link),52 (link)] The methanol solution of rhodamine 6G, which has a 93% QY, was used as a standard.[60 (link)] Different concentrations of the standard were prepared by dissolving a small amount of rhodamine 6G (Sigma, 252433–250MG) in methanol and diluting it appropriately. A series of J-aggregate samples were prepared by gently diluting the J-aggregate stock solution with water and equilibrating them for 30 minutes. Absorption and fluorescence spectra were collected for all samples using 0.1 mm quartz cuvettes (Starna). We previously confirmed that the concentrations of rhodamine 6G used in 0.1 mm cuvettes do not lead to the quenching of the dye, retaining the same high QY.[44 ] Fluorescence spectra were collected using the front facing geometry, where rhodamine 6G and J-aggregates were excited using 500 nm and 565 nm excitation sources, respectively. The QY of TDBC J-aggregates was calculated using the ratio of the slopes of the calibration plots, taking into account differences in refractive indices and the power of excitation sources.

Fluorescent Droplet Generation Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Resorufin sodium salt, fluorescein and rhodamine 6G (Sigma-Aldrich) solutions were prepared by dissolution in millipore water or NaCl solutions. Droplets were produced in fluorinated oil (HFE-7500, 3M) and stabilized against coalescence by a perfluoropolyether–polyethyleneglycol block-copolymer surfactant (PFPE–PEG–PFPE, Critical Micellar Concentration ∼0.03% (weight fraction)33 ). The surfactant was a kind gift from Dr E. Mayot, prepared from the carboxylic acid Krytox (157-FSH, Dupont) and polyethyleneoxide (Sigma-Aldrich), adapting the synthesis scheme described by Holtze et al.59 (link) and Scanga et al.33 60 The infra-red spectra of the surfactants used here, a detailed protocol for surfactant synthesis and the analysis of the rhodamine 6G partitioning towards the oil phase are provided in Supplementary Fig. 5 and Supplementary Notes 5 and 6. After mixing the surfactant in the fluorinated oils, the solutions are stable and stored in closed glass flasks and handled at room temperature.

The normal and tumor cells were cultured in 24 well plates containing coverslips with RPMI culture medium at 10% SFB kept in the greenhouse at 5% CO2 at 37 ºC for 24h. The samples from the control and treated groups underwent a removal process from the culture medium and were washed with RPMI culture medium. Then 10μL of Rhodamine 6G (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) in concentration 0.02 g/mL, was added for 30min in the dark at 37 ºC. After incubation with Rhodamine 6G, for fixation, were used 100 µL of 2% paraformaldehyde for 30min, then washed with PBS. Nonbinding Rhodamine123 was removed and the cells washed with culture medium. The coverslips were placed on slides for observation in the Confocal Laser fluorescence microscope (Fluoview™ 300) and the images were documented and analyzed. The analysis of the total occupied area and the fluorescence intensity was performed using the ImageJ software (National Institutes of Health).

Intracellular accumulation assay was performed according to the protocol by Srivastava and Ahmad [5 (link)], with minor modification. Briefly, C. auris isolates were grown overnight in YPD broth medium at 37 °C. Then, C. auris suspensions were incubated with FLU and FAR as previously described in Section 2.3. Post incubation, cells were pelleted (5000× g for 5 min) and washed in sterile PBS. Cells were re-suspended in sterile PBS (1 mL) supplemented with 2% glucose and 4 μM rhodamine 6G (Sigma, Taufkirchen, Germany) and incubated at 37 °C for 30 min. Cells were then washed twice with cold sterile PBS and 1 mL of fresh PBS was added to the pellet. Afterwards, 100 μL of suspension was pipetted into a flat-bottomed dark 96 well plate (Costar®, Kennebunk, ME, USA) and fluorescence was measured with a fluorescence spectrophotometer (Tecan, Männedorf, Switzerland). The results were evaluated using MagellanTM Data Analysis Software and the intensity of fluorescence of samples was determined by relative fluorescence units (RFUs). The same suspension was immediately used for microscopy. Fluorescence was detected by an inverted fluorescence microscope (Zeiss, Jena, Germany) with excitation/emission spectra 525/548 nm. The pictures were captured by AxioCam ERc5s (Zeiss, Jena, Germany) and evaluated by software Motic Images Plus 3 (Hong Kong, China).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Rhodamine 6G (83697, Sigma‐Aldrich) was used as the Raman reporter to assess the performance of SERS substrates. R6G molecules were dissolved into ethanol at the concentrations of 10−4, 10−5, 10−6, 10−7, 10−8, and 10−9m. One of pesticide chemicals, parathion‐ethyl (≥99.6%, 45607, Sigma‐Aldrich), was dissolved into ethanol at volume fractions of 100, 10, 1, 0.1, and 0.01 ppm, which correspond to 4.65 × 10−4, 4.65 × 10−5, 4.65 × 10−6, and 4.65 × 10−7 m, respectively.
Spin‐coating was used to deposit target molecules on the surface of SERS substrates. The spin coater (Laurell Technologies WS‐650Mz) rotated the attached SERS substrate at an initial spin speed of 100 rpm for 30 s, and during this period 150 µL solution was placed on the substrate surface. Then, the spin speed was accelerated to 2000 rpm for 2 min to deposit uniform molecule films by the centrifugal force.

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.
