Prior to use, the glass slides were cleaned in tap water, ethanol, ultra-pure deionized Milli-Q, then exposed for 40 min to ozone cleaning in a UV/Ozone procleaner from Bioforce nanosciences (Chicago, IL, USA). In addition to the controls described in the text, we ran blind tests with wet–dry cycles using only (Milli-Q) water to verify the cleaning procedures. This assured that the rings were not created by an unknown contaminant in the water.

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.
