Paperboard Grammage Determination

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The uncoated (control) and coated paperboard grammage were determined according to the ASTM D646-96 methodology [32 ]. The samples (12.5 × 12.5 cm) were weighted using an analytical balance (AUY220, Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan), and the grammage was calculated according to Equation (2).
G=MA
where G = grammage (g/m2); M = mass of the paper (g); A = paperboard area (m2).

All reagents used in the experiments were of analytical grade and used without further purification. The reagents used were weighed on a Shimadzu analytical scale, model AUY220, to prepare the solutions. The solutions were prepared using ultrapure water (resistivity 18.0 MΩ cm) obtained by the Thermo Scientific Barnstead™ Nanopure™ system (Waltham, MA, USA).
The reagents Na2HAsO4·7H2O (CAS: 10048-95-0) and NaAsO2 (CAS: 7784-46-5) were provided by Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA), and the reagents NaOH (CAS: 1310-73-2), HNO3 (CAS: 7697-37-2), CH3COOH (CAS: 64-19-7), and HCl (CAS: 7647-01-0) were purchased from Vetec (Brazil). Rhodium (Ra) (CAS: 7440-14-4) and multi-elementary solution were obtained from PerkinElmer (Waltham, MA, USA).

Preparation of Deep Eutectic Solvents

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The DES constituents were weighed in analytical balance (Shimadzu, AUY220, SP, Brazil) to produce choline chloride and propylene glycol at 1:2 M ratio (ChCl:Pro), and chlorine chloride and malic acid (ChCl:Ma) at 1:1 M ratio. The hydrogen bonds between choline chloride and the hydroxyl groups of HBD must be adequate to form the eutectic mixtures, which are dependent of the molar ratios, selected according to Dai et al. (2013) (link). Then, the mixtures were heated at 80 °C, at continuous stirring, by a type Dubnoff bath (Ethik technology, 304 TPA model, SP, Brazil), until homogeneous and transparent liquid solvents were observed. To decrease the ChCl:Pro and ChCl:Ma viscosities, enabling the handling by PLE unit and improving dissolution rates, the solvents were diluted in distilled water at concentrations from 5 to 55%.

Phase Diagram Construction for Microemulsions

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A microemulsion is only obtained if the amounts of the components are carefully quantified in a mixture [18 ]. Thus, the preparation of a phase diagram is essential for choosing the concentration of each substance. For this study, bidistilled water, soy oil, and the surfactant Tween® 80 were used. Nine points were made using the mass titration method with these three components, where the masses of the surfactant + oil binary were fixed, and water is titrated to it until there is a visual change in the system from clear to turbid or vice versa. The components were weighed using an analytical balance (AUY220—Shimadzu) and then placed in the magnetic stirrer with heating (SL—91, SOLAB model) at a temperature of 60 °C.

Lifespan and Fecundity Assay in Flies

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Flies of the same age were collected and reared at a low density of 20 flies (10 females and 10 males) per vial and 10 vials for each group at 25 °C. For life span assay, we counted the live flies every day during the experiment and transferred them to new vials every third day for body weight measurement, and 10 adult flies were together weighed (10 females or 10 males per sample) using an ultrasensitive scale (AUY220, SHIMADZU, Kyoto, Japan). For egg-laying assay, single females were transferred to a fresh tube and eggs were counted every day. For these assays, 10 replicates were performed in each group.

Fruit Yield and Quality Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The number of fruits per plant was obtained from fruit counts, and the frequency of green and mature fruits was also determined separately. Fruit average weight was determined after individual weighing of each fruit, using a semianalytical balance with a sensitivity of 0.01 g (AUY220, Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan). Yield per plant corresponds to the total weight of fruits per plant. The determination of the soluble solids content (°Brix, which is the percentage of soluble solids by weight) in the fruits was measured with a digital temperature-compensated refractometer, model RTD 45 (Instrutherm®, São Paulo, Brazil). Six ripe fruits per plant were evaluated in five replicates per genotype.

For the preparation of standards, NMN standards were weighed using an analytical balance (AUY220, SHIMADZU, Kyoto, Japan). The NMN standard used for PEL screening was dissolved in 10% DMSO solvent and serially diluted to 30, 25, 20, 15, 10, 5, 1, and 0.1 ng/mL control solution. For the measurement of C. verum, C. loureiroi, and Cabbage plant extract samples, NMN standard was dissolved in 25% ethanol, serially diluted to 100, 80, 40, 20, 10, 1, and 0.5 ng/mL control solutions. These standards were used to generate calibration curves to measure NMN concentrations in PEL and plant extracts.

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.
