Sdt q600 v20.9 build 20

The different CNTs were characterized by scanning electron microscopy using a JEOL SEM, model JSM-5800 LV.
Raman spectroscopy was performed using a micro-Raman LabRAM HR (Horiba Jobn Yvon, Piscataway, NJ, USA) coupled to an Olympus BX-4 microscope (Olympus, Miami, FL, USA) and Spectrum Gx (Perkin Elmer, Waltham, MA, USA). The sample was excited using a laser line at a wavelength of 632.8 nm, and all measurements were performed at room temperature.
The functional groups present in different CNTs were determined by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy in transmittance mode using a Carry 600 Series FTIR Spectrometer (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA) equipped with a zinc selenide accessory in attenuated total reflectance (ATR) mode; the wavenumber ranged of 600 cm⁻¹ to 4000 cm⁻¹. CNTs were deposited as dry powders onto a zinc selenide (ZnSe) window, no solvents were used in this process, and all determinations were made at room temperature.
A thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was performed using a SDT Q600 V20.9 Build 20 (TA Instruments, New Castle, DE, USA) heated at a rate of 10 °C/min to 1000 °C, and air was introduced into the samples at a rate of 25 mL/min.
Finally, 10% SDS–PAGE was carried out, and the proteins were visualized using the ProteoSilver™ Silver Stain Kit (Sigma–Aldrich) to demonstrate the presence of proteins in the sample.

Thermogravimetry and derivative thermogravimetric (TG/DTG) analyses were applied to determine the relative concentration of crystalline H₂O (i.e., structural H₂O) and carbonate content (dolomite, Dol) based on the loss in weight due to their decomposition. Moreover, the TG/DTG analyses are a successful technique to confirm and distinguish between the different phases of serpentine polymorphs [55 (link)]. At a heating rate of 10 °C/min, TG/DTG analyses were conducted using SDT Q600 V20.9 Build 20 (TA Instruments, New Castle, DE, USA) under a nitrogen atmosphere at a temperature range of ambient temperature to 1000 °C.

Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) of the gum arabic and the SD-MP and SD-GA microcapsules were performed using a TA Instrument (SDT Q600 V20.9 Build 20, New Castle, DE, USA). Argon was used as a purge gas (100 mL/min). The dried samples were placed in aluminum pans and heated from 20 to 600 °C at a heating rate of 10 °C/min.

TGA analyses were performed using a differential scanning calorimeter (TGA-DSC; SDT Q600 V20.9 Build 20, TA Instruments, Champaign, IL, USA) at a heating rate of 5 °C/min from room temperature to 700 °C under a nitrogen flow of 50 mL/min.

Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA)/differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) of powdered mucilage was performed on a TA Instrument (SDT Q600 V20.9 Build 20, New Castle, DE, USA). Argon was used as a purge gas (100 mL/min). The dried samples of powdered mucilage were placed in aluminum pans and heated from 20 to 600 °C at a heating rate of 10 °C/min.
