The IA (≥99%, Junsei Chemical, Tokyo, Japan), acrylic acid (AA, 99%, Sigma Aldrich, Saint Louis, MO, USA), OS (99%, Daejung Chemicals, Siheung, Korea), and 50% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (Samchun Pure Chemicals, Pyeongtaek, Korea) were used as received without further purification. Ammonium persulfate (APS, reagent grade, 98%, Sigma Aldrich) was used as the initiator; 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate (HDODA, 99%, Sigma Aldrich) was used as inner-crosslinker without purification. Methanol (95%, Samchun Pure Chemicals), bisphenol A diglycidyl ether (BADGE, 99%, Sigma Aldrich), poly(ethylene glycol) diglycidyl ether (PEGDGE, Mn = 275, Sigma Aldrich), ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (EGDGE, 98%, Sigma Aldrich), and diglycidyl ether (DGE, 98%, Sigma Aldrich) were used as the surface-crosslinkers without purification.

Itaconic acid (IA, Junsei, special grade, Tokyo, Japan) and vinyl sulfonic acid (VSA, Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MI, USA), acrylic acid (AA) were used as a monomer without purification. Cellulose (CMC, Daejung, Mw: 21,000–500,000, density: 1.59, Siheung, Korea) was purchased and used without purification. Poly(ethyleneglycol) diacrylate (PEGDA, Sigma Aldrich), 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate (HDODA, Sigma Aldrich) were used as the inner-crosslinker, sodium persulfate (NaPS, Sigma Aldrich) was used as the initiator, and 1,4-butanediol (BD, Sigma Aldrich, 99%) was used as the surface-crosslinker without purification.

Synthesis of Polyelectrolyte Hydrogels

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Itaconic acid (IA, ≥99%, Junsei Chemical, Tokyo, Japan) and acrylic acid (AA, 99%, Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MI, USA) were used as received without further purification. Aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (50%, Samchun Chemicals, Seoul, Korea) was used as a neutralizing agent. Ammonium persulfate (APS, reagent grade, 98%, Sigma Aldrich) was used as the initiator. The inner-crosslinker required for polymerization was crosslinked using 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate (HDODA, 99%, Sigma Aldrich), and then 1,4-butanediol (BD, 99%, Sigma Aldrich) was used as a surface-crosslinker. Methanol (MeOH, 99.5%, SamchunChemicals) was used as a medium in the surface-crosslinking solution. All reagents used in the experiment were used in a purchased state without a separate purification process.

Photocurable Nanodroplet Formation on Functionalized Surfaces

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
1,6-Hexanediol diacrylate (HDODA)
(80%, Sigma) and lauryl methacrylate (LMA) (97%, Sigma) were utilized
as monomers. The droplets of monomers were cured through the incorporation
of photoinitiator, 2-hydroxy-2-methylpropiophenone (97%, Sigma). Isopropanol
(AR, Sigma) was used to clean the solid substrates, syringes, and
fluid cell. Ethanol (AR, Chem-supply) and water (Milli-Q) were utilized
as the good and poor solvent, respectively, for the solvent exchange
to produce surface nanodroplets. For fluorescent studies, the solution
was stained by either Nile red (Sigma) and Rhodamine 6G (Sigma). Silver
nitrate (99% Chem-supply) and trisodium citrate (99%, Chem-supply)
were nanoparticle precursors. Poly(ethylene glycol)diamine (Mn = 3000, Sigma) was utilized to functionalize
the polymeric lens with amine groups. All reagents were used as received.
Cover glass (ϕ = 42 mm, No. 1, Proscitech or 26 × 60 mm,
No. 1.5H, Marienfeld) were used as substrates. No unexpected or unusually
high safety hazards were encountered.

Fabrication of Microcap Patterned Glass

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
1-Octanol (99%, Merck) and 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate (HDODA) (80%, Sigma) were the droplet liquids. Ethanol (AR, Chemsupply) was used as the good solvent. Octyldecyltrichlorosilane (OTS) (99%, Sigma) was used to modify the surface wettability. Nile-red (Sigma) and rhodamine 6G (Sigma) were all used in TIRF imaging. All the above chemicals were used as received. Water (Milli-Q, 18 MΩ/cm) was used in all experiments. Glass substrates (φ 42 mm, No. 1, Proscitech) were used after hydrophobic surface functionalization following a previously reported procedure 34 . The microcap substrate was prepared by photopolymerization of droplets on a smooth substrate, following the solvent exchange protocol reported in several of our previous papers 30 . In brief, the fluid cell with the smooth substrate placed inside was charged with a solution of 0.5 % HDODA in 50 % ethanol-water, which was gradually displaced by a second solution of HDODAsaturated water. The displacement of the second solution was controlled by a digital syringe pump (NE-1000, Pump Systems). Following the exchange the fluid cell was placed under UV light (20 W, 365 nm, Thermofisher) to cure the monomer droplets yielding a microcap patterned glass.

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.
