For elemental analysis, nanoparticles before and after isolation by centrifugation were freeze-dried and analyzed for their content in carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen (Finnigan FLASH EA 1112; Thermo Scientific, Waltham (MA), USA), with the nitrogen being specific for CS and therefore allowing differentiation between both polymers. Solutions of the starting polymers, CS and CMβG, were also freeze-dried and analyzed as controls.
Finnigan flash ea 1112
The Finnigan Flash EA 1112 is an elemental analyzer designed for the determination of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and sulfur in a variety of organic and inorganic solid and liquid samples. It utilizes a combustion-based technique to quantify the elemental composition of the sample.

Quantitative Analysis of Sodium-Titanium Compounds
The numbers of titanium ions per formula unit (with respect to sodium) were determined via wavelength-dispersive X-ray fluorescence (XRF) measurements on a “PANalytical Axios” spectrometer evaluating the intensities for the Na-Kα and Ti-Kα transitions. Samples were prepared from ca. 100 mg of analyte and 100 mg wax (Hoechst wax) performing uniaxial pressing (PerkinElmer hydraulic hand-press). Intensity ratios and sodium intensities were calibrated against linear regressions for three different mixtures of Na2S and TiS2 with R(Na/Ti) = N(Na) ≈ 0.4, 0.7, and 1.0 to account for instability/correlation of the titanium signal.
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.
