Ethanol

Manufactured by Duksan Pure Chemicals
Sourced in Cameroon, United States

Ethanol is a clear, colorless liquid chemical compound commonly used in laboratory settings. It serves as a solvent for various organic compounds and is often employed in analytical procedures, purification processes, and sample preparation. Ethanol has a characteristic odor and flammable properties that require appropriate safety measures when handling.

Graphene Oxide Coating on Titanium

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Grade 2 titanium (Titanart, Korea) was selected as the titanium plate. Prior to the experiment, it was polished with 800, 1,200, and 2000 grit silicon carbide paper (Daesung, Korea) to obtain an even surface of titanium. The residue was removed from acetone, ethanol (Duksan, Korea), and DW by ultrasonic washing. A single layer of graphene oxide (GO; Graphene Supermarket, USA) was used, and high-purity ethanol was used as the electrolyte. GO (500 ug/mL was prepared using 80% EtOH, and ultrasonic wave treatment was performed for 15 min to obtain a uniform electrolyte. The Ti substrate was placed in an electrolyte maintained at 1 cm from the anode. A Ti substrate was also used as the anode. For the EPD coating, an anode EPD process, in which electricity passes at a current of 10 mA for 1 min, was performed using a DC power source (TPM series, TOYOTECH, Korea) because GO has a negative charge. Subsequently, it was ultrasonically washed for 5 min in the order of acetone, ethanol, and water, and then dried. For the in vitro tests, the coated material was sterilized with a 70% ethanol solution.

Fixed tissues (thyroids, ovaries, uteri and ovarian fat fads) were dehydrated in
graded concentrations of ethanol (70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, and 100%; Duksan, Korea)
for 1 hour 30 minutes in each with gentle shaking and soaked in absolute ethanol
overnight. The tissues were immersed in xylene (Samchun Chemical, Seoul, Korea )
for 30 minutes, 3 times and in paraffin (Avantik Biogroup, Pine Brook, NJ, USA)
at 56°C for 30 minutes, 3 times. The tissues were embedded in paraffin
and sectioned (Microm, Walldorf, Germany) at 5 μm. The samples were
attached on microscope slides (Marienfeld, Lauda-Königshofen, Germany)
and the slides were stained with hematoxylin (Sigma-Aldrich) and eosin (Across,
Carson, CA, USA) for 5 minutes, respectively. The width of the thyroid follicle
lumen was measured using Image-J software, and other histological parameters
such as thickness of the follicular cells were measured.

Histological Preparation of Skin Tissue

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Skin tissues were fixed in cold 4% paraformaldehyde (Sigma-Aldrich) for 48 h. Following fixation, the tissues were dehydrated by immersion in increasing concentrations of ethanol. Subsequently, the tissues were cleared in xylene and embedded in paraffin using a tissue processor (Sakura Seiki Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan). The paraffin-embedded tissue blocks were sectioned into 7 µm thick slices using a microtome (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Obtained tissue sections were air-dried and placed in a 60 °C oven overnight to enhance tissue adhesion. Skin tissue sections were deparaffinized and rehydrated by sequential immersion in xylene (Duksan) and a gradient of 70–100% ethanol (Duksan).

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.
