TEM images of nanocrystals
were acquired on a JEOL JEM-1011 microscope equipped with a thermionic
gun at an accelerating voltage of 100 kV and on a JEOL JEM-1400Plus
microscope working at 120 kV. Selected area electron diffraction (SAED)
patterns were acquired on a JEOL JEM-1400Plus microscope. The samples
were prepared by depositing 3 μL of a diluted nanocrystal suspension
in trichloroethylene (TCE) onto 200-mesh carbon-coated copper grids
and letting it dry slowly. The indexation of SAED data was performed
with the help of the CaRIne Crystallography software suite via a simulation
of the reciprocal atomic lattice. HRSEM images were acquired on a
JEOL JSM-7500FA scanning electron microscope (SEM). Optical images
were acquired on a ZETA-20 true color 3D optical profiler.

The particle samples were examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) using a JEOL JEM-1400 PLUS microscope at 100 kV (JEOL Ltd., Japan). Samples were prepared for TEM imaging by pipetting 10 μL of the particle suspension onto a pioloform-coated single slot grid (Ted Pella, Cu, Pelco Slot Grids, USA), after which the water was allowed to evaporate, leaving the particles on the grid. Micrographs were recorded with a JEOL Matataki CMOS camera using TEM Centre for JEM1400 Plus software. The particle size distribution was later analysed from the images using ImageJ image processing and analysis software.36 Nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) was performed using a NanoSight LM10 instrument (Nanosight, England) equipped with a 405 nm laser. A sample volume of 400 μL was used and 60 s videos were recorded and analysed using NTA 2.3 software (Nanosight, England). Size data are reported as the mean (by concentration) and mode. Data were collected from four independently mixed samples per treatment.
Dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements were conducted on a DynaPro Platereader-II, Wyatt Technology Corp. USA. The sample volume was 100 μL and each sample was recorded 10 consecutive times with an acquisition time of 10 s at 25 °C. Data were analysed using analysis software Dynamics V7.

Liposome Morphology Analysis by TEM

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The uncoated/coated liposome shape and surface morphology was examined by TEM. Samples were prepared by placing a 200-mesh copper grid coated with carbon on a drop of the liposome preparation and waiting for 5 min to allow for sample deposition on the grid. Negatively stained TEM samples were prepared by dipping the liposomes-loaded grid on a 2% (w/v) uranyl acetate solution for another 5 min. Excess sample and reagent were removed from the grid using a filter paper, then the grids were left to dry completely. Micrographs were recorded using a Jeol JEM-1400 Plus microscope (JEOL Ltd.; Tokyo, Japan) working at an accelerating voltage of 100 kV.

All chemicals were of reagent grade and were purchased from chemical suppliers (Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., FUJIFILM Wako Pure Chemical Corp., and Sigma-Aldrich, Inc.). The NMR spectra, UV-visible (UV-vis) spectra, circular dichroism (CD) spectra, and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra were measured using JNM-EX400 (JEOL, Tokyo, Japan), V-560 (JASCO, Tokyo, Japan), J-725 (JASCO, Tokyo, Japan), and JES-X320 (JEOL, Tokyo, Japan) spectrometers, respectively. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was conducted using a JEM-1400 Plus microscope (JEOL, Tokyo, Japan). Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) thermograms (Fig. S1) were obtained using a DSC 6200 differential scanning calorimeter (Seiko Instruments Inc., Chiba, Japan). An aqueous solution of viologen-modified glutamide (G) derivatives, G-V2+, (20 mM, 50 μL; Fig. 2a), was sealed in 70 μL silver pans and scanned between 5 and 90 °C at a heating and cooling rate of 2 °C min−1 under a N2 atmosphere (50 mL min−1).

Cryo-EM and Negative Staining Imaging

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Negative-staining was achieved by adsorbing ~5 μL of sample on a glow-discharged formvar/carbon coated copper grid (Electron Microscopy Sciences) and staining with 2% uranyl formate. Imaging was performed on a JEOL JEM-1400 Plus microscope operated at 80kV. Samples for cryo-EM were first concentrated using centrifugal filters with 30-kD nominal molecular weight limit (EMD Millipore) to remove iodixanol and achieve ~50 nM DNA-ring concentration. The concentrated samples were then adsorbed on glow-discharged holey carbon grids (Quantifoil MicroTools GmbH), which were subsequently washed with buffer solution with 10% reduced salt concentration, blotted, and flash frozen in liquid ethane using FEI Vitrobot. Imaging was performed on an FEI Tecnai-F20 microscope operated at 200kV.

To prepare negatively stained DNA nanostructures or DNA-origami-organized liposomes with or without proteins, a drop of sample (5 μL) was deposited on a glow discharged formvar/carbon coated copper grid and incubated for 1–3 min at RT. Fluid was then removed by blotting with a filter paper. The grid was immediately stained for 3 min with 2% (w/v) uranyl formate. Grids were examined using a JEOL JEM-1400 Plus microscope equipped with a LaB6 filament (acceleration voltage: 80 kV).

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.
