Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Synthesis of mixed manganese-ruthenium oxides was based on the hydrothermal route of DeGuzman et al. who prepared manganese oxides, 20 but with the addition of KRuO 4 as oxidant, as well as KMnO 4 , to oxidise Mn 2+ . A solution of 0.2945 g (0.001864 moles) KMnO 4 in 5 mL of water, was added to a solution of 0.44 g (0.0026 moles) MnSO 4 •H 2 O in 1.5 mL of water and 0.7112 g concentrated H 2 SO 4 was added to give a final concentration of 1 mol dm -3 H 2 SO 4 . Varying amounts of KRuO 4 were substituted for the KMnO 4 (as described in the Results and Discussion section). The mixtures were then heated in 20 ml Teflon-lined Parr autoclaves, at a temperature of either 100 °C or 200 °C, for 24 hours. The solid products were recovered by centrifuge, washed with deionised water and dried at 80 °C in air. All chemicals were used as provided by Sigma-Aldrich. For the XANES spectroscopy experiments, the reference materials Mn(NO 3 ) 2 , Mn 2 O 3 , Mn 3 O 4 , MnO 2 , Ru(acac) 3 were also purchased from Sigma-Aldrich at the highest available purity and their identity confirmed using powder XRD, while the material La 4.87 Ru 2 O 12 was synthesised as in our previous work. 19a

Metal-Dependent Nuclease Activity Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Inorganic salts including MgCl2, MnCl2, CaCl2, CoCl2, CuCl2, NiCl2, ZnCl2, FeCl2, FeCl3, and Mg(NO3)2 were from Thermo Fisher Scientific with a minimum purity of 99.99%. Mn(NO3)2 with 98% purity was from Sigma-Aldrich. Stock solutions (100 mM) were prepared by dissolving inorganic salts in nuclease-free water. Unless otherwise stated, metal-dependent nuclease activity was measured in the presence of 10 mM divalent metal ion or 10 mM EDTA. For metal ion concentration-dependent assay, increasing concentrations of metal ions (from 0.2 to 10 mM) were incubated with either 2 nM circular M13mp18 ssDNA or 4 nM circular pUC19 dsDNA in the presence of Mg2+ or Mn2+ for 30 min at 37°C. Reactions were terminated by adding 1 μL of Proteinase K. For kinetic study, reactions were quenched at different time points and were run on 1% agarose gel. Error bars are presented as mean ± SEM.

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.
