Furthermore freeze dried hydrogels were examined by a scanning microprobe Kratos Axis Ultra-DLD XPS spectrometer (EPSRC service Cardiff, UK), equipped with a monochromatised AlKα X-ray radiation source. For each specimen, survey scans (Fixed Analyser Transmission mode, binding energy (BE) range 0–1200 eV, pass energy 117.4 eV) and high-resolution spectra were acquired of carbon (C1s), nitrogen (N1s), sodium (Na1s), oxygen (O1s), phosphorous (P2p). Atomic concentration (At.%) on the survey scan was performed using the built-in CasaXPS software package and in order to detect the BE representing the chemical binding states of the each elements within the films, the XPS spectra for the chemical elements detected from the films were subjected to peak deconvolution using the same software.
Spectrum two pe
The Spectrum Two PE is a Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometer designed for routine analysis in laboratories. It provides reliable and reproducible IR data for identification and characterization of a wide range of samples.

ATR-FTIR Analysis of Dried Samples
Infrared Spectroscopy of Solid Samples
FT-IR/ATR and XPS Characterization
XPS analyses were performed using a scanning microprobe, PHI 5000 VersaProbe II, purchased from Physical Electronics (Chanhassen, MN, USA). The instrument was equipped with a micro-focused monochromatized AlKα X-ray radiation source. The samples were examined in HP mode with an X-ray take-off angle of 45° (instrument base pressure ~10−9 mbar). The size of the scanned area was approximately 1400 μm × 200 μm. Wide scans and high-resolution spectra were recorded in FAT mode for each sample, setting pass-energy values equal to 117.4 eV and 29.35 eV, respectively. To fit the high-resolution spectra, the commercial MultiPak software version 9.9.0.8 was used. Adventitious carbon C1s were set as the reference charge (284.8 eV).

FT-IR/ATR Spectroscopic Analysis
FTIR Analysis of Molecular Structure
The samples were placed directly onto the ATR crystal and spectra were collected in transmittance mode. Each spectrum was the result of the average of 32 scans at 4 cm -1 resolution. Measurements were recorded in the wavelength range of 1800-800 cm -1 . All spectra were smoothed using the Savitzky-Golay function. Second-derivative spectra of the amide region were used at bands position guides for the curve fitting procedure, using OriginPro 9.1 software.
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.
