Proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectra (1H-NMR) were obtained using a Bruker spectrometer at 400 MHz. The samples were dissolved in CDCl3. Chemical shifts (δ) were expressed in parts per million (ppm) with respect to a tetramethylsilane reference. The molecular weight of the mPEG initiator was evaluated through MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry by using an ultrafleXtreme mass spectrometer (Bruker), and a weight of 5.31 kDa was obtained.
The molecular weight distribution of the polymers was determined through gel permeation chromatography (GPC) by using a 5 µm 1 × 103 Å Phenogel™ column in a chromatographer (Waters, Pittsburgh, PA, USA). THF was used as the mobile phase (flow rate 0.7 mL/min at 35 °C). Column calibration was performed with polystyrene (PS) standards between 1.5 and 50 kDa.

Molecular Weight Characterization of Polymer Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Specimens were dissolved in chloroform (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) at a concentration of 20 mg/mL under mild agitation at room temperature and filtered by injection through a 0.45 μm filter (Whatman, Kent, UK). The resulting solution was assayed for molecular weight by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) based on previously reported methods [17 (link), 24 ]. The GPC system (Waters, Milford, MA) consisted of a pump (Waters Model # 155), injection module (Waters # 717), and refractive index detector (Waters Model # 410). GPC was performed (n = 3) at a flow rate of 1 mL/min and temperature of 30 °C using a Phenogel column (300 × 7.80 mm, 5 μm particle size, Waters) and calibrated using linear PMMA standards with molecular weights ranging from 2.58 to 981 kDA (Waters, Milford, MA). Number average molecular weight (Mn), weight average molecular weight (Mw), and polydispersity index (PI) were measured and reported.

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.
