Nanomaterial Characterization by DLS and TEM

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The average particle size (PS), polydispersity index (PDI) and zeta potential (ZP) of NPs were measured by dynamic light scattering (DLS) using a Malvern Zetasizer Nano ZS 90 (Malvern Instruments, Worcestershire, UK). All sample measurements were performed at a scattering angle of 173 °C and a temperature of 25 °C. Samples for each NP batch were measured five times and the average value ± the standard deviation reported. Size distribution peaks by intensity were also recorded for each measurement.
NP morphology was observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Aqueously dispersed NPs were added to a formvar grid stabilised with silicon monoxide. Following evaporation of the dispersant, sample grids were viewed using a Hitachi H-7650 electron microscope (Hitachi High-Technologies, Leixlip, Ireland).

Mice under deep anesthesia were transcardially perfused with PBS heparin and sciatic nerves were then fixed in situ with 2.5% glutaraldehyde + 2% paraformaldehyde in 0.1 M PBS, pH 7.4. Tissues were then embedded in epon, and semi-thin sections (500 nm) were stained with toluidine blue using standard procedures. Ultrathin sections were mounted on copper grids coated with Formvar membrane and contrasted with uranyl acetate/lead citrate.

Dissected brachial plexus was placed in 4% PFA overnight then rinsed and transferred to 10 mL pH 7.2 containing 2.5% glutaraldehyde-0.1 M imidazole buffer. Tissues were then immersed in 2 mL 2% osmium tetroxide in imidazole buffer for 4 hr and washed in distilled water followed by dehydration in a graded series of ethanol (50%, 80%, absolute). Sequentially, tissue sections were immersed in a mixture of 1:1 absolute ethanol and propylene oxide and then in propylene oxide in sealed vials on a rotating mixer for 15 min. Finally, tissue was infiltrated with a 1:1 mixture of propylene oxide and epoxy resin overnight in open vials then embedded with epoxy resin in molds at 60°C for 48 hr. Embedded tissue was first ‘thick’ sectioned at 0.25 micrometers with glass knives and stained with epoxy tissue stain (Electron Microscopy Sciences, Hatfield, PA). Selected areas were then thin sectioned at 70 nm with diamond knives and mounted on Formvar-Carbon coated grids and stained with 2% uranyl acetate and lead citrate solution. Digital images were collected with a mid-mount XR611 camera (AMT, Inc., Woburn, MA) in a model H-7650 electron microscope (Hitachi High-Technologies, Dallas, TX).

Visualizing Cellular Morphology and Mitochondria

To visualize cellular morphological changes, all cells cultured in their corresponding pHe medium were collected and plated in 35-mm diameter μ-dishes (Ibidi, Martinsried, Germany). A minimum of 10 randomly chosen microscopic fields (~ 70 cells per field) were imaged using an AF6000 LX microscope (Leica Microsystems, Singapore) equipped with Zyla sCMOS camera (Andor by Oxford Instruments, Belfast, UK) and objective lens (HCX PL Fluotar L 20x/0.40 CORR PH1) with 1.8x digital zoom. To observe mitochondrial morphology and cristae ultrastructure, the TEM (transmission electron microscopy) images of each cell group were taken on an H-7650 electron microscope (Hitachi High-Technologies, Tokyo, Japan) equipped with a CCD (charge-coupled device) camera (Advanced Microscopy Techniques, Danvers, MA, USA). The density of cristae was calculated based on 45 randomly selected mitochondria per cell group with ImageJ software (https://imagej.nih.gov/ij).

Ultrastructural Analysis of Leukoplakia Tissue

The small samples of leukoplakia tissues were immediately fixed with 2% paraformaldehyde and 2.5% glutaraldehyde in 0.1 M phosphate buffer (PB) (pH 7.4) at room temperature for 2 h. Following washing with 0.1 M PB twice for 10 min at 4°C, the specimens were post-fixed in 1% osmium tetroxide in 0.1 M PB at 4°C for 2 h. Dehydration of the specimens through a graded series of ethanol solutions was followed by substitution with N-butyl glycidyl ether (QY-1) (Nisshin EM, Tokyo, Japan) twice for 15 min and then with QY-1 and epoxy resin (Epon 812) (TAAB Laboratories, Aldermaston, Berks, UK) mixed 1:1 overnight at room temperature and final infiltration with Epon 812 for 6 h at room temperature. Polymerization was performed by incubation at 60°C for 3 days.
The resin-embedded samples were cut into ultrathin sections (70–80 nm thickness), and the sections were collected on copper grids (Nisshin EM). The sections were stained with 1% uranyl acetate in 0.1 M PB for 30 min and 1% lead nitrate in 0.1 M PB for 5 min, and they were then observed under an H-7650 electron microscope (Hitachi High-Technologies, Tokyo, Japan).

Samples were collected from the fermentation at the late-lag (T1), mid-exponential (T2), late-exponential (T3), and stationary (T4) phases. At the indicated time points, the cells were harvested through centrifugation at 8000 r/min for 15 min at 4°C. Cells were diluted in buffer as required after washing twice with PBS buffer (50 mmol l–1, pH 6.5). The electron microscopic investigations were carried out using a HITACHI H-7650 electron microscope (Hitachi High-Technologies, Tokyo, Japan). The formvar-coated copper grids were immersed in the bacterial suspension for 10 min; then stained with 2% phosphotungstic acid (PTA) for 5 s after the removal of excess liquid and air drying; the grid was air- dried again before examination.

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.
