5 protocols using ultrathin carbon type a 400 mesh copper grid

1

Negative Staining of PA Micelles

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Ultrathin carbon type-A 400 mesh copper grids (Ted Pella, Redding, CA) were loaded with 5 μL of 0.5 mM PA micelles and allowed to dry. Grids were washed with several drops of water and then negatively stained with 1% aqueous phosphotungstic acid for 3 min. The excess solution was then removed, and grids were left to dry. Grids were imaged on a FEI Tecnai 12 TEM using an accelerating voltage of 120 kV.

Ultrathin carbon type-A 400 mesh copper grids (Ted Pella, Redding, CA, USA) were loaded with 1 μL of BIM PAs and allowed to dry. The grids were washed with several drops of water and then negatively stained with 1% aqueous phosphotungstic acid for 1 min. The excess solution was then removed and grids were left to dry. All the grids were imaged on a FEI Tecnai 12 TEM (Hillsboro, OR, USA) using an accelerating voltage of 120 kV.

Characterizing Nanoceria Particles via TEM

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Micrographs were taken with a Tecnai 12 TEM operating at 80 kV equipped with a 1K×1K Keen View camera. Nanoceria dispersions were deposited on ultrathin carbon type-A 400 mesh copper grids (Ted Pella, Inc.). Micrographs were analyzed using ImageJ software for 200 particles.

Visualizing Cry3Aa Protein Crystals by TEM

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) imaging was performed at the OSU Campus Microscopy and Imaging Facility (OSU CMIF). Samples were prepared by dispersing 0.5 mg Cry3Aa and Cry3Aa-GFP crystals in 1 mL cell culture water (Lonza). The samples were sonicated for 5 min and were stained with 6 drops of 3% phosphotungstic acid. The carbon grids were prepared by slowly dipping an Ultrathin Carbon Type-A 400 Mesh Copper Grid (Ted Pella) into solutions of either the Cry3Aa or Cry3Aa-GFP protein crystal three times and drying the grid at ambient temperature. A FEI Tecnai G2 transmission electron microscope operating at 200 kV was used to obtain TEM micrographs of the crystals.

TEM Imaging of Dilute Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Transmission electron microscopy images were taken on a FEI Tecnai G2 F20 X-TWIN Transmission Electron Microscope operated at 200 kV. Samples were prepared by dropcasting approximately 10 μL of a dilute solution of the sample in hexanes onto a ultrathin carbon type-A, 400 mesh, copper grid from Ted Pella, Inc.

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.
