Physicochemical Characterization of Apig-Loaded Nanoemulsions

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Average particle size (APS) and polydispersity index (PdI) were determined using Zeta Plus Analyzer (Brookhaven Instruments Corporation, Holtsville, NY, USA) and followed by zeta potential measurement. Fresh empty NEs and Apig-loaded NEs were pipetted 1 mL and appropriately diluted in pure water to reach the test criteria. Hydrodynamic particle size and polydispersity index were obtained by 10 min of automatic cycle calculation and the zeta potential was measured by phase analysis light scattering combined with electrophoresis technique. At least three independent measurements were performed for each sample and reported as the mean±standard deviation. Besides, the storage stable days of NEs at 24.5 °C were determined by average particle size (APS) < 500 nm, polydispersity (PdI) <0.4, or no phase separation through optical observation.

Characterization and Stability Evaluation of Cc Oil Nanoemulsions

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Average particle size (APS), PdI, and ZP of Cc oil-NEs were measured by Zeta Plus Analyzer (Brookhaven Instruments Corporation, Holtsville, NY, USA) based on the principles of dynamic light scattering for size and distribution and Doppler velocimetry (electrophoretic light scattering) for zeta potential. Before each measurement, the fresh samples were suitably diluted in pure water to avoid light interruption. The values of APS, PdI, and ZP (the mean ± standard deviation) were calculated from triplicate measurements per sample. Additionally, the NEs, with a volume of 20 mL, were stored at room temperature, approximately 25 °C. The storage stability the of NEs was evaluated based on the following criteria: APS < 500 nm, PdI < 0.4, or no optical phase separation observed.

Morphological Characterization of Nanoparticles

Morphological examination of NP was performed by environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) (Zeiss LS10, Germany). The samples were placed on aluminum stub, then analyzed at 10 kV acceleration voltage after gold sputtering (Sputter Coater Edwards S150A), under an argon atmosphere. Mean diameter and polydispersity index (PDI) of NPs were measured by using photon correlation spectroscopy (Zetasizer Nano ZS, Malvern Instruments, U.K.) at 25 °C and a scattering angle of 90° after dilution of samples with Milli-Q water. Each sample was measured in triplicate. The ζ potential values of the NP were detected with a Zeta Plus analyzer (Brookhaven, USA) at 25 °C. Each sample of NP was diluted with distilled water (1.0 mg/2.0 mL) and sonicated before measurement. All data were obtained with the average of three measurements.

Emulsion Particle Size and Viscosity

The particle size distributions and polydispersity index (PDI) of emulsion were measured using a dynamic light scattering (DLS) by a Zeta Plus Analyzer (Brookhaven Instruments Corporation, Holtsville, NY, USA) before VSD. Each sample was diluted 20× and was measured independently in triplicate [3 (link)]. The viscosity was determined by Vibro viscometer SV-10/SV-100 (A&D, Tokyo, Japan). The viscometer was calibrated using a standard viscosity fluid with the known value of viscosity and density of 0.93 mPa.s at 23 °C using DI water. The sample was added to the disposable cup until 10 mL, then measured for 10 min.

Synthesis and Characterization of Silver Nanoparticles

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
AgNPs were prepared by Nano Trade Company (Czech Republic). In brief, AgNO3 was dissolved in distilled water and NaBH4 added under constant magnetic stirring. Formation of AgNPs occurred rapidly upon addition of NaBH4 (Frankova et al.,2016 (link)). The AgNPs were characterized by ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) spectroscopy (from 200 nm to 800 nm) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The analysis was performed using a JEOL JEM 2011 transmission electron microscope at an accelerating voltage of 100 kV. Photographs were taken with a Morada or Keen View II digital camera and the iTEM program (SIS, Olympus). Zeta Plus analyzer (Brookhaven) was used to measure the zeta potential. The silver nanoparticles used in our study had an average size of approximately 10 nm (more than 50%).

The morphology of NBs was examined using a transmission electron microscope (TEM) (JEM-1011, JEOL, Inc., Peabody, MA, USA). The mean diameter and polydispersity of NBs were measured using photon correlation spectroscopy (90 Plus particle sizer, Brookhaven Instruments Corp). Measurements were performed at 25°C with a laser wavelength of 660 nm at an angle of 90°. Bubble size was measured by diluting a sample formulation 1:1000, with PBS at pH 7.4. The bubble size was reported as the number average. The zeta potential of NBs was determined by using a Zeta Plus Analyzer (90Plus/BI-MAS, Brookhaven, Holtsville, NY, USA). Measurements were performed at 25°C and each sample was run using 7 repetitions and the average was reported.

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.
