Cells were suspended in PBS to OD600nm = 0.5. For ζ potential measurements, 100 mL of each sample was diluted into 900 mL PBS. The measurements were performed on a Malvern Zetasizer Nano ZS (Malvern Instruments, Malvern, U.K.) at RT. Data points given are an average of 3 biological replicates with 3 measurements each.
UV–vis absorption measurements were performed using a Perkin Elmer Lambda 1050 spectrophotometer, with deuterium (180–320 nm) and tungsten (320–3300 nm) lamps, a monochromator and three detectors (photomultiplier 180–860 nm, InGaAs 860–1300 nm, and PbS 1300–3300 nm). Absorption spectra were normalized according to a reference spectrum taken at 100% transmission (without the sample), 0% transmission (with an internal shutter), and in the presence of the reference solvent. For the PL measurements and the excitation profiles an iHR320Horiba NanoLog Fluorometer was employed, equipped with a Xenon lamp, two monochromators, and two detectors (photomultiplier and InGaAs).

All steady-state and real-time fluorescence spectra were measured by a Nanolog fluorometer (Horiba Jobin Yvon, L-format, equipped with a CW 450 W xenon light source, thermoelectrically cooled R928 PMT, and fully automated excitation and emission polarizers for anisotropy measurements), with a 1 cm path length quartz cell (Starna Cells, Inc.). All spectra were corrected for the wavelength dependence of the detection system response. A volume of 120 μL of 20 nM tile solution was used for all measurements. Fluorescence emission spectra were collected using 495 nm excitation, 4 nm excitation slits, 505–650 nm emission wavelength range, 5 nm emission slits, and 0.5 s integration. Fluorescence anisotropy was measured with 495 nm excitation, 4 nm excitation slits, 520 nm emission, 5 nm emission slits, and 0.5 s integration. Anisotropy values were calculated from the instrument software FluorEssence for Windows by Horiba Scientific.

Fluorescence Spectroscopy of Hybrid Platforms

Fluorescence spectroscopy was employed to gather qualitative insights into the internal structure and microenvironment of the prepared systems in HPLC-grade water. Pyrene was used as a hydrophobic probe, capable of being incorporated into the hydrophobic domains of the hybrid platforms. A NanoLog Fluorometer (Horiba Jobin Yvon, Piscataway, NJ, USA) was used to record the pyrene emission spectra, with a laser diode serving as the excitation source (Nano LED, 440 nm, 100 ps pulse width) and a UV TBX-PMT series detector (250–850 nm) from Horiba Jobin Yvon (Piscataway, NJ, USA). A description of the utilized method is presented below.
Colloidal dispersions of P407, P407/Tw80, P407/Tw80/MβCD, and P407/Tw80/HPβCD were prepared at concentrations of 10 mg/mL. Following this, 3 μL of a pyrene stock solution (1 mM) was added to each colloidal dispersion. The dispersions were equilibrated for 24 h and the I1/I3 ratio was measured at each hybrid system concentration at temperatures of 25 °C, 37 °C, and 50 °C. Fluorescence spectra were collected in the range of 355–630 nm, with an excitation wavelength of 335 nm. Notably, no excimer formation was observed for the examined solutions.

P3HT Nanoparticle Synthesis and Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
P3HT-NPs were prepared from freshly synthesized P3HT by the reprecipitation method in the absence of surfactants (55 (link)). The polymer was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran, and the solution was added to distilled water (solvent/nonsolvent volume in a 1:20 ratio). By means of differential centrifugation, the NPs were separated into fractions of different sizes and characterized by DLS with a NanoBrook Omni particle size analyzer, with a wavelength of 659 nm in back scattering mode (see also the Supplementary Materials). Ultraviolet (UV)–visible (vis) spectroscopy measurements were carried out using a PerkinElmer Lambda 1050 UV/Vis/NIR spectrophotometer and a Horiba Jobin Yvon NanoLog fluorometer. Scanning electron microscopy images were acquired with a Tescan MIRA3.

UV-vis-NIR (λ = 250 to 1,100 nm) steady-state absorption spectra were recorded using a Shimadzu UV-1800 spectrometer. Steady-state emission spectra were collected on a Horiba Nanolog fluorometer set to a right-angle detection mode. All measurements were performed in CH2Cl2 at 295 K.

Time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) measurements TRPL measurements were carried out using a femtosecond laser source coupled to a streak camera detection system (Hamamatsu C5680). A Ti:sapphire laser (Coherent Chameleon Ultra II, pulse bandwidths of ∼140 fs, repetition rate of 80 MHz, and maximum pulse energy of 50 nJ) was used to pump a second-harmonic crystal (β-barium borate) to tune the pump wavelength to 470 nm. The measurements here shown were performed recording the first 130 ps of decays, with an IRF of 4.1 ps.
When required, a Peltier cell was used in order to control the samples temperature.

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.
