Fig. 3 Optical micrographs and TEM images of HA NPs before and after pickup. (A) Optical micrograph (scale bar, 500 μm) of HA NPs coated on a Si substrate before attempted NP pickup (inset: corresponding SEM image of the same substrate as the outset; scale bar, 500 nm). (B) Optical (main) and SEM (inset) images of the Si substrate after NP pickup (scale bars, 500 μm for the outset and 500 nm for the inset). (C) TEM image of dried HA NPs (scale bar, 100 nm). (D) TEM image of a portion of a dried droplet showing the presence of HA NPs (scale bar, 500 nm).
Fig. 4 Visualization of HA NP pickup using alizarin-labeled NPs. (A) Commercial HA NP suspended in ethanol before staining. (B) Alizarin-labeled HA NPs suspended in ethanol. (C) Fluorescence micrograph of alizarin-labeled HA NP–coated substrate. (D) Same substrate after HA NP pickup using polymer 4–stabilized droplets. (E) Fluorescence micrograph of polymer 4–stabilized droplets following NP pickup. Scale bars (C to E), 500 μm.
Fig. 6 HA NPs picked up by oil-in-water droplets stabilized by polymer 4 and dropped off on PDA-coated Si substrate. (A) Fluorescence micrograph of alizarin-labeled HA NP–coated substrates before pickup. (B) Fluorescence micrograph of PDA-coated Si substrate before drop-off and SEM image of PDA-coated Si substrate before drop-off (inset). (C) Fluorescence micrograph of alizarin-labeled HA NP–coated substrates after pickup. (D) Fluorescence micrograph of PDA-coated Si substrate after drop-off and SEM image of PDA-coated Si substrate after drop-off (inset). Scale bars, 500 μm for the micrographs and 500 nm for the SEM images [insets of (B) and (D)].
