Morphological analysis of solidified nanocarriers

The solid powder samples (pure LNS, pure CUR, CUR loaded S-SNEDDS and LNS-loaded S-SNEDDS) were examined using scanning electron microscope (Carl Zeiss EVO LS10; Cambridge, UK) to evaluate the effect of solidification on the adsorbent particle shape and detect the signs of incomplete solidification. Samples were fixed on stubs using double-sided adhesive carbon tape then coated with gold in a Q150R sputter coater unit (Quorum Technologies Ltd., East Sussex, UK) under vacuum for 60 s in an argon atmosphere (20 mA) [26 (link)].

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.
