Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After thawing at room temperature, urine samples from rats, mice and humans were prepared by diluting with distilled water to 1:30, 1:20 or 1:40 (urine: water). Pipetting 5 µl of diluted urine was pipetted onto a silicon ATR prism (SensIR, 3 mm diameter, 3 reflections) and dried by nitrogen gas at a flow rate of 400 mL/min. Spectra were subsequently recorded with a Bruker Optics, Germany, IFS 66/S FTIR spectrometer equipped with an Mercury cadmium telluride (MCT)-A detector cooled using liquid nitrogen. All absorbance spectra were recorded in the 4000–800 cm−1 frequency range versus a clean prism background. Each spectrum was computed from the average of 500 interferograms at 4 cm−1 resolution using the clean prism surface for recording of the background spectrum. The prism surface was cleaned using distilled water and ethanol between samples. The resultant FTIR absorbance spectra were analyzed with Bruker 6.5 and Origin Pro 9.1 software.

Fourier Transform – infrared (FTIR) spectra were obtained with a Bruker IFS 66 S FTIR spectrometer (Bruker Optics Inc.; Billerica, MA) in a sample chamber purged with nitrogen gas. MnO nanoparticles were pressed into a KBr pellet with a sample concentration of 2% (w/w). Reference spectra of neat 4-aminothiophenol and 4-bromoaniline were collected by depositing the liquid samples between two KBr windows. FTIR spectra of the 4-aminothiophenol monolayers and tethered MnO nanoparticles were collected via the reflectance-absorbance FTIR spectroscopy (RAIRS) technique using the Seagull accessory from Harrick Scientific (Pleasantville, NY).

The surface morphology of fs-laser-treated samples is analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and three-dimensional (3D) laser scanning microscope. The SEM is a Zeiss-Auriga field emission operating at an accelerating voltage of 20 kV. The spectral scattering/reflectance of the samples were measured using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometer, Bruker IFS 66/S FTIR spectrometer, equipped with an integrating sphere, where the measured range of the wavelength was 2.5–25 μm.

A IFS 66/S FTIR spectrometer (Bruker Optics Ltd, Coventry, UK) fitted with a Golden Gate® ATR accessory with temperature controllable top plate (Specac Orpington, UK) and diamond internal reflection element was used to identify the physical form of felodipine and the possible interaction between the drug and the other excipients included in the patches. All samples were scanned using the following parameters: 2 cm−1 resolution, 32 scans for sample and background, and 4000–550 cm−1 spectrum range in absorption mode. The spectra of 3 replicates per sample for all drug loadings were analyzed using OPUS software.

ATR-FTIR Analysis of Root Stress Response

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For ATR-FTIR analysis, roots were collected from primary and secondary development zones (as described above for RNA extraction, Supplementary Figure S1) for control and combined heat and osmotic stress, 24 h after treatment. Plant material was immediately washed with ice cold water for 5×, to remove growth media traces. Plant material was then flash frozen in liquid nitrogen, lyophilized and powdered prior to the analysis. A solid PEG6000 sample was used to identify possible PEG-specific contaminating peaks in the root samples. ATR-FTIR spectra were collected on a Bruker IFS66/S FTIR spectrometer (Bruker Daltonics, Billerica, MA, USA) using a single reflection ATR cell (DuraDisk, equipped with a diamond crystal). Data were recorded using OPUS v5.0 software, at room temperature, in the range of 4000–600 cm−1, by accumulating 256 scans with a resolution of 2 cm−1. Five replicate spectra were collected for each sample to evaluate reproducibility.

FTIR Spectra of Photo-Induced Matrices

FTIR spectra were recorded between 4000–400 cm−1 in a transmission mode by means of a Bruker IFS 66/S FTIR spectrometer with a resolution of 0.5 cm−1 and using a liquid N2 cooled MCT detector. Matrices were irradiated with the tunable UV light provided by the frequency doubled signal beam of a pulsed (7 ns) optical parametric oscillator Vibrant 355 (Opotek Inc., Carlsbad, CA, USA) pumped with a pulsed Nd:YAG laser (Quantel, Edinburgh, UK). The experiments started using λ  =  370 nm light and proceeded with gradual decrease in the output wavelength. After each irradiation, an infrared spectrum of the matrix was taken.

ATR-FTIR Spectroscopy Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Spectra were recorded with a Bruker IFS/66 S FT-IR spectrometer, fitted with a liquid nitrogen-cooled MCT detector and a KBr beamsplitter. Experiments were run in ATR mode using a 3 mm diameter silicon microprism with ZnSe optics (three reflections; SensIR). Data were recorded at room temperature at 4 cm–1 resolution. Power spectra were computed by Fourier transformation of 1000 (background; clean crystal surface) or 500 (sample) averaged interferograms. Absorbance spectra between 4000–800 cm–1 were then calculated from –log(sample intensities/background intensities). Cited frequencies are accurate to approximately 1 cm–1.

ATR-FTIR Analysis of Microgel Suspensions

ATR-FTIR measurements were performed at an IFS 66/S FTIR spectrometer (Bruker, Ettlingen, Germany) with a mercury cadmium telluride detector and a diamond/ZnSe internal reflection element with nine active reflections (DuraSamplIR II, Smiths, CT, United States). The spectra were obtained from 512 scans with a resolution of 2 cm−1. The microgel suspension (20 μl, > 0.4 wt%) was deposited onto the crystal and dried with air for at least 30 min. The absorbance of the corrected spectra was multiplied with the corresponding wavenumber to compensate the wavenumber dependent penetration depth and was normalized to the amide I vibration at 1,642 cm−1.

To characterise the spectral reflectance/scattering, we measured the total hemispherical optical reflection of the samples using an ultraviolet-visible (UV) PerkinElmer Lambda 900 spectrophotometer and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Bruker IFS 66/S FTIR spectrometer, each equipped with an integrating sphere. The surface morphology was analysed by SEM, and EDS was performed to study the presence of oxides and nitrides. Ion-beam milling was utilised for the cross-sectional view of the oxide layer.

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.
