Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States, Australia, Netherlands

The Quanta 200 FEG SEM is a field emission scanning electron microscope (FEG SEM) designed for high-resolution imaging and analysis of a wide range of materials. It features a Schottky field emission gun, which provides high brightness and small probe size for high-resolution imaging. The Quanta 200 FEG SEM is capable of operating in high and low vacuum modes, as well as in environmental mode, allowing for the analysis of a variety of sample types.

Comprehensive Characterization of Cu@ZnO Nanocomposites

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
XRD patterns were
recorded for the synthesized composite materials using Rigaku smartlab
in the 2θ range of 20–80°. The surface morphology
of the materials was analyzed using FEI quanta FEG 200 SEM. XPS measurements
were done using an Omicron ECA probe spectrometer, with polychromatic
Mg Kα X-rays (hν = 1253.6 eV). ESR analyses
of the Cu@ZnO nanocomposites were analyzed for oxygen vacancies and
conduction band electrons using JEOL model JES FA200. MALDI-TOF analysis
was done using a Bruker ultraflextreme equipped with a pulsed IR laser,
with 337 nm wavelength; the mass spectra of the Cu@ZnO nanocomposite
materials were recorded in the positive reflection mode. A high resolution
TEM (HRTEM, JEOL model 3010) was used for the identification of cluster
formation and to measure the lattice distance. The band gap of the
composite materials was measured using Jasco 650 along with the spherical
accessory using the principles of DRS.

3D Reconstruction of Dendritic Spines from SEM

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Serial block-face images are collected using a Gatan 3View system (Gatan) mounted in an FEI Quanta FEG 200 SEM operating at an acceleration voltage of 3 kV with an in-chamber pressure of 10 Pa of water vapor. Samples were imaged at 10 000 × in order to visualize dendritic spines and PSD; the voxel size is 6 × 6 × 50 nm (x-y-z), the latter was chosen as the thickness for the SEM cutting interval. The resulting datasets were assembled into aligned volume files using Digital Micrograph (Gatan) and then semiautomatically or manually segmented and reconstructed in 3D using Ilastik 0.5 or 1.2 (www.ilastik.org) or AMIRA 5.4.3 software package (FEI Visualization Science Group), respectively. 3D models were either measured using the “Material Statistics” module of AMIRA, or Neuromorph addon available for Blender (www.blender.org).

Images where taken on two different integrated microscope systems. For Figs 1 to 3, data was collected on a home-built integrated microscope in an FEI Quanta FEG 200 SEM. The integrated wide-field fluorescence microscope, described in detail by Zonnevylle et al.10 (link), was equipped with a Nikon 60 ×, 0.95NA CFI PLAN APO objective and 200 mm Nikon tube lens, an Andor Clara E camera for Figs 1 and 2 and an Andor Zyla 5.5 camera for Fig. 3. Data for Fig. 4 was collected using a SECOM platform (Delmic, the Netherlands) equipped with a Nikon 40x, 0.95NA CFI PLAN APO objective, installed on an FEI Verios SEM.

One disc from the control group and four discs from each of the experimental groups were desiccated with silica gel for 72 hours. Following dehydration, the discs were mounted on sample holders, gold sputter-coated (2 nm) and examined with an Everhart-Thornley detector in a FEI Quanta FEG 200 SEM at 10 kV under high vacuum (Bio21 Advanced Microscopy Facility, Victoria, Australia). The remaining discs from each group were desiccated using silica gel for 72 hours and examined using SEM-EDS as described for the enamel samples.

SEM-EDS Analysis of Enamel Remineralization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
SEM-EDS analysis was conducted on TMR sections of enamel lesions treated in vitro by CPP-ACP + SnF2 to assess the distribution of elements within the lesion following remineralisation. The samples were examined at 10 kV under low vacuum using a solid-state diode backscatter electron detector in a FEI Quanta FEG 200 SEM operating at 10 kV with an energy-dispersive spectrometer (Bio21 Advanced Microscopy Facility, Victoria, Australia). Characteristic x-rays from areas of interest were then detected using an energy dispersive x-ray spectrometer and microanalysis software (AZtec Microanalysis Suite Ver 3.1, Oxford Instruments).

A fragment of freeze-dried gel was attached to a self-adhesive carbon disc mounted on a 25 mm aluminium stub. The stub was coated with 25 nm of gold using a sputter coater. The stub was then placed into a FEI Quanta 200 FEG SEM for imaging at 5 kV accelerating voltage using secondary electron detection.

Skin Specimen Inoculation and Visualization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Using the prevention strategy as outlined in Section 2.4, skin specimens were first treated with ABIL and Eudragit, followed by inoculation with microconidia. These samples were then incubated for 24 h at 30 °C and visualized with scanning electron cryo-microscopy. For this, the skin specimens were directly mounted on SEM pin stubs with PELCO conductive silver paint (Ted Pella, Redding, CA, USA) and frozen immediately in liquid nitrogen. The specimens were then coated in a sputter coater and imaged by a Quanta 200 FEG SEM (FEI, Hillsboro, OR, USA).

Pectin hydrogel beads were examined for morphology and the encapsulation of bacteria using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), confocal microscopy, and optical microscopy.
For SEM examination, hydrogel beads were fractured in liquid nitrogen. Sample fragments were mounted on aluminum specimen stubs with colloid silver adhesive and coated with a thin layer of gold by dc sputtering. A Quanta 200 FEG SEM (FEI, Hillsboro, OR) was used to collect images. Images were taken in the high vacuum/secondary electron imaging model at 2,500X and 10,000X.
For optical microscopy, images were collected with a Leica MZ FLIII stereoscopic microscope (SMZ1500, Nikon Instruments Inc., Melvilla, NY) equipped with a DFC420C camera and Leica LAS V. 3.8 software (National Institute of Health, MD).
For confocal microscopy, samples of pectin hydrogel beads containing LGG were placed on microscope slides and observed using an IRBE optical microscope with a 10X lens integrated with a model TCS-SP laser scanning confocal microscope (Leica Microsystems, Exton, PA). The parameters for image acquisition were set at 485/500–530 nm (excitation/emission).

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.
