1 [4, 5]. Therefore, it is advantageous to use NTA rather than DLS when analyzing polydisperse nanoparticle solutions. NTA also enables zeta-potential and nanoparticle concentration to be determined, allowing for unique applications such as determining the number of plasmids per polymeric nanoparticle [8, 9]. This information is important for gene delivery applications, as it allows researchers to correlate loading with gene regulation efficiency. In this chapter, the methods to characterize polymeric polyplex gene delivery nanoparticles by NTA are described.

The base solution is added to the ligand exchanges to prevent multilayer formation due to hydrogen bonding between the terminal carboxylic acids on the MOA. While it is not necessary to use the base with the PEGSH samples, it is added to all ligand exchanges for consistency. 5. Aqua regia is highly toxic and corrosive. Wear proper personal protective equipment and handle only in a fume hood. Do not mix with organic solvents and always allow the solution to vent—gasses evolve continuously upon mixing the HCl and HNO3 solutions.

3 The electrophoretic curve should have a parabolic shape as shown opening either to the right or left sides for negative or positive zeta-potentials respectively 6. Analysis. For each capture, adjust detection threshold as needed, scrolling through the video to assess multiple frames. 7. Data export and assessment. Following data analysis, assess the quality of the zeta-potential measurement by examining the parabolic character of electrophoretic curve on the second page of the PDF export comparing to the electrophoretic curve shown on page 35 of the Malvern software guide and reproduced below (Fig.
