Raman Spectroscopy Analysis of Antibody Thermal Stability

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Raman spectroscopy system was composed of a CCD camera (Synapse, HORIBA), a monochromator (MicroHR, HORIBA) with a 1800 gr/mm grating (HORIBA), and a 532 nm laser with a 100 mW power source (JUNO 532S, KYOCERA SOC Corporation). An optical microcell (M-30-G-5, GL Science) was used for all measurements. Solutions of antibodies at 50 mg/ml in 20 mM citrate-phosphate buffer at desired pH were heated from 25 to 90ºC at a temperature interval of 1ºC and the Raman spectra were collected with an acquisition time of 5 s and 15 times accumulation at each temperature using Labspec 6 software (HORIBA). For the investigation of concentration effect, rituximab at 5 mg/ml in pH 7.0 was also analyzed. The thermal transition temperature (Tm) and onset temperature (Tonset) were calculated by fitting with a sigmoidal function or second derivative, respectively on OriginPro software (OriginLab Corporation).

Absorption spectra
were recorded using a Cary Lambda 900 spectrophotometer at normal
incidence with Suprasil quartz cuvettes with a 0.1 cm optical path
length. Steady-state PL and PL excitation spectra have been recorded
using a xenon lamp as an excitation source, together with a double
monochromator (Jobin-Yvon Gemini 180 with a 1200 grooves/mm grating),
and recorded through a nitrogen-cooled charge-coupled device (CCD)
detector coupled to a monochromator (Jobin-Yvon Micro HR). Under cw
laser excitation, signals have been recorded using a nitrogen-cooled
CCD coupled with a double monochromator, Triax- 190 (HORIBA Jobin-Yvon),
with a spectral resolution of 0.5 nm. All spectra have been corrected
for the setup optical response. Time-resolved PL spectra have been
recorded using a pulsed light-emitting diode (LED) at 250 nm (3.65
eV, EP-LED 340 Edinburgh Instruments, a pulse width of 700 ps) or
a pulsed laser at 405 nm (3.06 eV, EPL-405 Edinburgh Instruments,
a pulse width of 150 ps) as a light source. Data were obtained with
an Edinburgh Instruments FLS-980 spectrophotometer, with a 5 nm bandwidth
and a time resolution of 0.1 ns.

Near-infrared Nanophotonic Device Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A pulsed laser diode emitting at 1064 nm was used to optically excite devices. A 50 × objective lens was simultaneously used for the optical excitation of the device and for the collection of light from the device. The sample was mounted on an actuator stage to control the position of the excitation spot. Collected light was sent to an optical spectrum analyser to obtain photoluminescence spectra. Near-field images were obtained using a custom-made NSOM apparatus operating in the near-IR regime. The sample was mounted on an inverted optical microscope (Eclipse Ti-S, Nikon) and was optically excited through the silica substrate (from the backside). Evanescent fields for the lasing modes were captured by a dielectric NSOM probe, while the probe position was manipulated by a scanning controller system (SMENA, NT–MDT). Collected near-field signals were fed to a monochromator equipped with an InGaAs photodiode (MicroHR, Horiba, DSS-IGA025T, Horiba). A lock-in amplifier (SR830, Stanford Research Systems) was used to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio.

Colon Tissue Autofluorescence Measurement

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Tissue autofluorescence was excited with 355 nm pulsed laser (<0.6 ns per pulse, >2 μ J per pulse, repetition rate 4 kHz; TEEM photonics STV-02E, Meylan, France). A 400 μ m core diameter multimode fiber placed perpendicular to the sample was used to deliver and collect the light. A second multimode fiber (600 μ m in core diameter) was used to guide the tissue autofluorescence to a monochomator (MicroHR, Horiba, Kyoto, Japan). Light was detected with a gated microchannel plate photomultiplier tube (R5916U-50, Hamamatsu, Hamamatsu, Japan) connected to a high-speed amplifier (C5594, Hamamatsu), and digitized by an oscilloscope (DPO7254, Tektronix, Beaverton, OR, USA). The laser power at the sample plane was kept under 5 mW. Fluorescence decays were acquired from 370 to 600 nm with 2 nm increments and a 0.08 ns resolution. Each data point was an average of 64 decays.
Data were acquired from three points along the length of the colon corresponding to the proximal, the middle, and the distal ends. Three measurements were taken on each position. The results presented in Figure 2 represent the mean (solid thick line) over 4 independent samples (2 female and 2 male) and their corresponding standard deviation (shaded area). Samples were kept in phosphate buffer saline (PBS) for the duration of imaging.

Perovskite Single Crystal Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All the performances measurements of the devices were done in ambient conditions at room temperature. The junction characteristics have been determined by two points resistivity measurements, tungsten needles as electrical leads. One of the contacts is positioned directly on the perovskite single crystal, whereas the second one touches the Ti foil as the back electrode. A Keithley 2400 source meter allowed us to measure the current with < 0.1 nA resolution, while tuning the applied bias voltage, in dark and under visible light illumination. Current-Voltage measurements were performed by sweeping the voltage from 0 to +2 V/-2 V and back, with a scan speed of 0.2 V/s. Photocurrent measurements at low light intensities were done by choosing 550 nm wavelength, within the spectral response of our device, enabling also to achieve high enough intensities of light that can be detected. The wavelength was set with a monochromator (Horiba Micro HR), while light intensity was adjusted by closing and opening slits in the light path.

Steady-state PL and PLE spectra have

NTs has been measured with relative methods using 2,5-diphenyloxazole
as a fluorescence standard.66 All spectra

PL spectra have been recorded using a pulsed LED at 340 nm (3.65 eV,
EP-LED 340 Edinburgh Instruments, a pulse width of 700 ps) or a pulsed

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.
