Identification of large channels in cationic PEGylated cubosome nanoparticles by synchrotron radiation SAXS and Cryo-TEM imaging.
Extra-large nanochannel formation in the internal structure of cationic cubosome nanoparticles results from the interplay between charge repulsion and steric stabilization of the lipid membrane interfaces and is evidenced by cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (Cryo-TEM) and synchrotron radiation small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). The swollen cubic symmetry of the lipid nanoparticles e...
متن کاملDevelopment of tools to automate quantitative analysis of radiation damage in SAXS experiments
Biological small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) is an increasingly popular technique used to obtain nanoscale structural information on macromolecules in solution. However, radiation damage to the samples limits the amount of useful data that can be collected from a single sample. In contrast to the extensive analytical resources available for macromolecular crystallography (MX), there are relat...
متن کاملBreaking the 200 nm limit for routine flow linear dichroism measurements using UV synchrotron radiation.
The first synchrotron radiation flow linear dichroism spectra are reported. High-quality spectral data can be collected from 450 nm down to 180 nm in contrast to the practical cutoff of approximately 200 nm on benchtop instruments. State-of-the-art microvolume capillary Couette flow linear dichroism was successfully ported to a synchrotron radiation source. The sample volume required is < 50 mi...
متن کاملBreaking the speed limit with atomic force microscopy
High-speed atomic force microscopy (AFM) is important for following processes that occur on sub-second timescales for studies both in biology and materials science, and also for the ability to examine large areas of a specimen at high resolution in a practical length of time. Further developments of the previously reported high-speed contact-mode AFM are described. Two instruments are presented...
متن کاملRadiation damage in single-particle cryo-electron microscopy: effects of dose and dose rate
Radiation damage is an important resolution limiting factor both in macromolecular X-ray crystallography and cryo-electron microscopy. Systematic studies in macromolecular X-ray crystallography greatly benefited from the use of dose, expressed as energy deposited per mass unit, which is derived from parameters including incident flux, beam energy, beam size, sample composition and sample size. ...
