To determine the loaded amount of CDDP, the FA-MNP/CDDP/TFPI-2 complexes were dissolved in 6 mL of 12-oxophytodienoic acid (OPDA)/DMF (1.2 mg/mL) and measured at 1 nm by ultraviolet (UV) spectrophotometry30 (link) (Encapsulation rate%= CDDP content /CDDP integral dose×100%). The benzene ring structure of the FA molecule has characteristic absorption peaks at 256 nm, 283 nm, and 365 nm. With these features, we adopted UV spectrophotometry (UVIKON923 BIO-TEK, USA) to analyze the content of FA in the complexes 31 (link). The 1H NMR spectrum of FA-MPEG-PEI was obtained on a Gemini-200 spectrometer (Varian, CA, USA) using D2O as the solvent to detect the chemical bonds of FA-MPEG-PEI.
Morphological examination of the complexes was performed using a JEM-2010HR high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) after counterstaining with uranyl acetate. For the resulting complexes, their particle sizes and zeta potentials were determined with a zeta potential analyzer (ZetaPALS, Brookhaven Instruments Corporation, USA).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
P407-FA was synthesized via a previously reported method with modifications [28 (link)]. Firstly, 87.58 mg (0.20 mmol) of FA was dissolved in 5 ml dried DMSO and added to a one-neck flask. Then, 35.32 mg (0.22 mmol) of CDI was added to the solution, and the reaction was stirred for 24 h at room temperature in the dark, then we added 0.62 g (0.05 mmol) of P407 which had been previously dried overnight in a vacuum and the reaction was allowed to proceed in the dark for 1 day at room temperature. After the reaction was completed, the mixture was dialyzed for 5 d in a dialysis bag with a molecular cut off of 3000 to remove free FA. P407-FA was recovered via lyophilization. The resulting product was dried in a vacuum oven for 2 d and stored in a dry box, yielding 56% w/w of product.
Prepared P407-FA was characterized by 1H-NMR and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC-60; Shimadzu Corporation, Kyoto, Japan). 1H-NMR spectrum of P407-FA was recorded on a Gemini-200 spectrometer (Varian, CA, USA) using DMSO-d6 as the solvent. UV-Vis spectra were acquired using a UV-1601 spectrophotometer (Shimadzu Corp., Kyoto, Japan) to determine the degree of conjugation of FA by measuring the absorbance at 360 nm.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The synthesis methods of PLGA-PEG-OMe (PP) copolymer were as described previously [20 (link)]. Briefly, the 300 mg (0.025 mmol) of PLGA (50/50) with terminal carboxylic acid was activated with 8 mg (0.039 mmol) of DCC in 3 mL of anhydrous dimethylformamide (DMF) under a nitrogen atmosphere for 4 h (a PLGA: DCC mole ratio of 1:1.5). In another flask, 100 mg (~0.029 mmol) of NH2-PEG-OMe was dissolved in 2 mL of anhydrous DMF with 0.1 mL of triethylamine (TEA) for 4 h and then was added to the DCC-activated carboxylic acid end group of PLGA solution in a dropwise manner (PLGA: NH2-PEG-OMe mole ratio of 1:1.2). The reaction mixture was still stirred under a nitrogen atmosphere for overnight. The solution was dialyzed (molecular weight cut-off; MWCO 1000 Da) against distilled water for 12 h to remove the unreacted NH2-PEG-OMe, and then freeze-dry. The PP copolymer product was identified by infrared (IR) and NMR spectroscopy. Infrared spectra (IR) were obtained using a Perkin-Elmer System 2000 FT-IR spectrophotometer (Waltham, MA, USA). 1H-NMR spectra were recorded on a Varian Gemini-200 spectrometer (Palo Alto, CA, USA) using TMS as an internal standard. The chemical shifts are given in δ (ppm), and the coupling constants are given in Hz.

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.
