Functionalized Nanodiamond Particles for Cell Culture

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
He+ ion irradiated nanodiamond particles were donated by Prof. Huan-Cheng Chang, Academia Sinica. The nanodiamonds were annealed in vacuum at 800°C to form NV centers. Then, the particles were oxidized in air at 450°C for 2 h to remove graphitic carbon on the surface and yield FNDs. HCl, NaOH, NaCl, glycerol and polyethylenimine (Mw: 50,000–100,000) were purchased from Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd. (Osaka, Japan) and ethanol was purchased from Nacalai Tesque, Inc (Kyoto, Japan). Milli-Q water was used for all experiments. Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM: Sigma-Aldrich Co., MO, USA), with addition of penicillin-streptomycin (Life Technologies Co., NY, USA) and 10% fetal bovine serum (Biowest, MO, USA), was used for cell culture.

HEK 293 cells were plated in 4-well coverglass chamber (Iwaki) in a total volume of 1 ml high-glucose DMEM culture medium, containing 10% heat-inactivated FBS, 100 U/ml penicilin and 100 μg/ml streptomycin, and incubated at 37 °C and 5% CO2. For transfection, 1:1 mixture of 0.323 mg/ml polyethylenimine (Wako) and 100 ng/μl DNA with 75 mM NaCl was incubated for 30 min at room temperature, and 25 μl of the mixture was added into 0.5 ml cell culture. Cells were incubated for 1–2 days after transfection.

Cellulose Nanofiber Preparation from Kraft Pulp

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cellulose nanofibers were prepared from never-dried softwood bleached kraft pulp according to the modified method of our previous report.25 (link) An aqueous suspension of the pulp (0.2 wt%, 2 L) was treated by a high-pressure water-jet system (Star Burst, HJP-25008, Sugino Machine Co., Ltd, Uozu, Japan) equipped with a counter-collision chamber. The pulp suspension was ejected from a nozzle with a diameter of 0.10 mm at 245 MPa with 100 cycle repetitions. PEI (average molecular weight: 1800 Da) was purchased from Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd., Osaka, Japan. tert-BuOH (>99.0% purity) was obtained from Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan. HAuCl4·3H2O (98% purity) was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich Japan, Ltd., Tokyo, Japan. Artificial seawater (Marine Art SF-1) was purchased from Tomita Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., Tokushima, Japan. All chemicals were used as received without any further purification.

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.
