Zetasizer

Manufactured by JEOL
Sourced in United Kingdom

The Zetasizer is a versatile instrument designed for the measurement of particle size, zeta potential, and molecular weight. It utilizes dynamic light scattering (DLS) technology to determine the size and distribution of particles in a sample. The Zetasizer can analyze a wide range of materials, including nanoparticles, emulsions, and protein solutions. Its core function is to provide accurate and reliable data on the physical properties of samples, which is essential for a variety of applications in research and industry.

Nanoparticle Characterization via Ultracentrifugation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Filtration was carried out by using a cooling ultracentrifuge model (Hettich MIKRO, German) separation of the nanoparticles was according to their mass where the lower layer contains massive particle. The relative centrifugal force (RCF) was then calculated by applying Eq. (1) 21 (link). RCF=1.118×10-5×r×N2 where RCF is the relative centrifugal force (cm/sec2), r is the rotational radius (cm), and N is the rotating speed (revolution per minute, rpm). Then each sample was characterized by JEOL JEM-2100 HR-TEM, XRD, and Zetasizer (nano 90 Malvern, UK).

Characterization of Nanoconjugate Structures

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The structures and features of synthesized nanoconjugates (NCt/Cur, NCt/Eug, and NCt/Cur/Eug), e.g., distribution, shape, and size, were assessed; the Zetasizer photon correlation spectroscopy (PCS Zetasizer, Malvern™, United Kingdom) was used to assess the nanoconjugates’ charge and particle size (Ps) distribution, whereas the SEM (scanning electron microscopy, JEOL JSM-6301F, Tokyo, Japan) imaging emphasized the nanoconjugates’ morphology, apparent size, and particle distribution. The magnification of ×15,000 was applied at an acceleration of 10 kV. The elemental composition of NCt was assessed via coupled energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy on the SEM instrument.

Characterizing Micelle Properties

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The average particle size, size distribution and morphology of micelles were measured by dynamic light scattering (DLS, Malvern Zeta Sizer) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM, JEOL JEM-1011). Drug loading capacity (DLC) and drug loading efficiency (DLE) were determined by HPLC (Waters).

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.
