The fluorescence detector was set to specific emission and excitation wavelengths of 435 nm and 362 nm, respectively, for AFG1 and AFG2 determination. Separation of the AFG1 and AFG2 was achieved using a Eurospher 100/5C18 column (4.6 mm ID, 5 μm ODS, 25 cm L). The Eurospher 100/5C18 column features a unpolar silica gel with a monomeric C18 (Octadecyl) modification. It is endcapped and has a carbon content of 16%. The column operates effectively at temperatures up to 40 °C, with a short-term tolerance of up to 50 °C, and boasts a specific surface area of 350 m2/g. The mobile phase consisted of a mixture of methanol/acetonitrile (50:50 v/v) and phosphate buffer (0.05 mM, pH 4), with a ratio of 40:60 v/v and a flow rate of 1.0 mL min⁻147 (link). The structural analysis of the catalyst composite included investigations using Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) on a Bruker instrument (Germany), X-ray Diffraction Spectroscopy (XRD) on a Bruker D8 ADVANCE instrument (Germany), BET analysis using BELSORP Mini II (MicrotracBEL Corp, Japan), and Field Emission-Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM) with a Mira 3 Tescan instrument (Czech Republic).

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.
