Ultrasonic Extract Reducing Power Assay

The reducing power of the ultrasonic extract was determined according to an established method [24 (link)]. Increased absorbance of the reaction mixture indicated increased reducing power. Evaluation of the reduction potency was performed by mixing each extract in different solutions. The mixture was incubated at 50 °C for 20 min. Trichloroacetic acid (TCA, 10%, 2.5 mL) was added to a portion of this mixture (5 mL) and centrifuged at 3000× g for 10 min. The supernatant was separated and mixed with distilled water (2.5 mL) containing 1% ferric chloride (0.5 mL). The absorbance was measured at 700 nm (Ocean Optics HR2000+ Spectrometer, Ostfildern, Germany).

Luminescence Properties of Phosphor Particles

Optical properties of these materials were investigated by measuring emission and excitation spectra. The photoluminescence spectra of the phosphor particles were recorded with a spectrofluorometer (Fluorolog®-3, HORIBA Jobin Yvon) at RT. The emission spectrum was measured over the wavelength 400–650 nm, a Xenon arc lamp was used as excitation source (λexc = 380 nm). The decay profiles were also recorded using the same instrument after the samples were exposed to Solar Simulator, indoor artificial light and monochromatic light, λexc = 380 nm, for about 10 minutes. A relationship has been established between the luminescence intensity obtained by the spectrofluorometer and the luminace (cd/m2) obtained by using a luminance meter (LS-110, Konica Minolta Sensing, Inc.) and verifying the relationship following the approach by Clabau et al.36 . The radioluminescence measurements were obtained exciting the powders with Cu X-ray tube source on Rigaku Ultima+RINT2000/PC diffractometer and light collection was done using an Ocean Optics HR2000 spectrometer equipped with an optical fiber, the spectra were recorded at RT.

Characterization of 594-phosphor LED Spotlight

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In this study a 300 W ViugreumTM spotlight (Guangdong Zhongshan Yilangde Illumination CO. Ltd., Zhongshan City, China) containing a 594-phosphor white LED panel with an emission divergence of 120° and emitting a 36000 lum and 6500 K light, was used. Since the manufacturer of the spotlight supplies only the color temperature of the light emitted but not the specific emission spectrum, the latter was measured using a HR2000+ spectrometer (Ocean Optics, Largo, Florida), which has a wavelength range of detection from 190 nm to 1100 nm. The light of the lamp has been coupled to the spectrometer through an optical fiber.

Tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS, 98%), dopamine·hydrochloride, tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane (Tris) and potassium persulfate (99+%) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. Sudan I, Sudan Blue II and Alizarin Yellow GG were purchased from Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. and ethyl alcohol anhydrous (99.9%) was purchased from Daejung Chemicals. Bromocresol purple and sodium n-dodecyl sulfate (99%) were purchased from Alfa Aesar and N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide was purchased from Fluka Chemicals. Styrene (≥99%) was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich and purified through a neutral alumina column to remove inhibitors. All other chemicals were used without further purification. Deionized (DI) water (>18.4 MΩ cm) was produced by Milli-Q (Millipore, USA). The synthesized nanoparticles were purified by sequential centrifugations using Supra R22 (Hanil, Korea) and CF-10 (Daihan-Scientific, Korea). Diameters of the synthesized nanoparticles were determined by taking the average of over 100 particle images obtained with a scanning electron microscope (Hitachi S-4800). Absorbance spectra of dyes were obtained on a UV-Vis spectrometer (Agilent 8453); reflectance spectra and CIE (Commission International de l'Eclairage) XYZ colour spaces of HPSs were obtained using an HR2000+ spectrometer (Ocean Optics, USA) equipped with UV-Vis-NIR light source. Photograph images were taken with Nikon D-90.

OES was employed for optical diagnostics of the reactive gas species generated by the DBD plasma in the gas phase. The emission spectra were measured using a computer‐controlled HR2000+ spectrometer (Ocean Optics Inc.) with a 0.66 nm optical resolution and 1000 mm optical fibres. In addition, the fibres had a numerical aperture of 0.22 and were optimized for use in the ultraviolet and visible portions of the spectra with a wavelength range between 200 and 1100 nm. The data were analysed using OceanView Optics software (Ocean Optics Inc.). The peaks were identified by comparing with the NIST Atomic Spectra Database (Xu et al., 2017 ).

Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Figure 1 show the experimental setup used. The irradiation source was a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser (Continuum Surelite II) with pulse duration of approximately 7 ns (full width at halfmaximum, FWHM) operating at 1064 nm. The laser beam was focused on the sample using a 20 cm focal lens. The energy of the laser pulse was controlled to have laser fluences of the order of 20 J∕cm 2 . To collect the radiation emitted by the plasma, a fused silica optical fiber (0.5 mm opening), was used. Detection and analysis were made by using an Ocean Optics HR2000+ spectrometer (spectral range 250-1100 nm, resolution 1.5 nm). To avoid bremsstrahlung emission, an electronic delay system was used.
LIBS spectra were obtained by averaging in each measurement 10 laser shots. For each sample, 20 sets of spectra were obtained, each corresponding to a different region of the sample. The set of 20 spectra were averaged to obtain a final value with its dispersion. Each spectrum was integrated over 3 ms. Data were processed with the Origin8 program, and line emissions were identified by using data from the NIST database [19] .

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.
