The 25 nm nanobeads may exhibit high surface energy, making them prone to aggregation in solvent, which could explain the observed particle size of 300–800 nm in DLS measurements. It's also important to note that the 30% amplitude setting does not provide a clear indication of the actual power being applied during sonication. For better results, it is generally recommended to use a protocol of 1 second on with 3 seconds off for a total of 15 minutes under 400 Watts. Additionally, checking TEM images for the particle size, if available, may provide more accurate information on the actual size of the nanobeads.

I applied probe sonication on ice for 8 minutes at 30% amplitude. However, the DLS size measurement results showed the particle size of is around 300–800 nm, which differs from the product description (25 nm). How?

Are these PFA-fixable?
1 answer-
A specific PFA Fixation study is not performed on this material. The literature around this topic seems to suggest this is a possible use for this product and more details can be found below.

what is dispersibility of this beads in water.
1 answer-
The nanopowder may be re-dispersed by adding water directly to the storage vial. It is recommended to add 1 mL of water per each 1 mg of nanoparticles to be re-dispersed, and probe sonicating on ice for 8 minutes at 30% amplitude or until the powder has completely re-dissolved.
