The protein adsorption onto colloidal gold particles and pH-dependent stability of protein-gold conjugates were examined using albumin and fibrinogen as model proteins. Albumin stabilized gold sols at pH values higher than 5.0. The amount of albumin necessary to stabilize gold sols was lowest at pH 5.6 and slightly increased as the pH of the adsorption medium was increased. Albumin was also able to stabilize gold particles even at acidic pH values ranging from 3.5 to 4.5, if a sufficient amount of albumin was added. Stable fibrinogen-gold conjugates were obtained at pH values above 6.5. Unlike albumin, the same amount of fibrinogen was able to stabilize gold sols as pH was increased from 7 to 10. The stability of the prepared protein-gold conjugates was very sensitive to the pH of the storing medium. The protein-gold conjugates were least stable at the isoelectric pH of the protein. The results suggest that protein-gold conjugates should be prepared at pH where conjugates are most stable, instead of pH close to the isoelectric point.</p>","PeriodicalId":77379,"journal":{"name":"Scanning microscopy.

Immuno-gold labelling of sections of freeze-substituted bacteria showed the same localization of the hybrid protein as found after cryo-ultramicrotomy. The efficiency of labelling of the accumulated form of the hybrid protein was lower after freeze-substitution whereas the efficiency of labelling of the membrane-bound form showed no difference.

Polyurethane support films: structure and cellular adhesion. 聚氨酯支撑膜:结构和细胞粘附性。

{"title":"Polyurethane support films: structure and cellular adhesion.","authors":"S L Goodman,&nbsp;S L Cooper,&nbsp;R M Albrecht","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>It is desirable to examine the cytobiology of cell adhesion to the same materials which are contemplated for use in biomedical and biotechnological devices. It is also of fundamental interest to examine adhesion to substrates with properties which are likely to influence adhesion in controlled ways. In many of these applications the materials of choice are polyurethane elastomers due to their physical properties and resistance to biodegradation. Polyurethanes have a two phase microstructure consisting of hydrophilic hard segments and hydrophobic soft segment domains. Variations of both the chemistry and the morphology of these microdomains may be produced. It is well understood that the hydrophilic/hydrophobic nature of surfaces affects cellular adhesion and the adsorption of extracellular proteins. Since polyurethane microdomains have dimensions in the range of 10-100 nm, hence the size of proteins and cell-surface receptors, polyurethane microdomain structure could influence order at the cell-material interface. Polyurethanes may be prepared as thin films with excellent properties for use as specimen supports in High Voltage transmission Electron Microscopy (HVEM) at 1 MeV. This permits the imaging of the cytoskeleton and other internal features of whole mounts of adherent cells, rather than tedious thin sectioning required for conventional TEM. Subsequently the surface morphology of these preparations may be imaged with high resolution SEM. Finally, the polyurethane itself may be stained and imaged by either HVEM or high resolution SEM in order to relate polyurethane micro-morphology to cellular features.</p>","PeriodicalId":77379,"journal":{"name":"Scanning microscopy.
