• diameters of void PGMD NPs and IR820-PGMD NPs (see dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements in Figure S1, Supporting Information File 1) are 90 ± 18.2 nm, and 108 ± 7.4 nm (mean ± SD) respectively. The shape and size of IR820-PGMD NPs were also confirmed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) imaging

• of the dynamics of several proteins has been studied by Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) [15][16][17]. This study was intended to demonstrate the potential of using dynamic light scattering (DLS) and the measurement of zeta potentials when studying the supramolecular aggregation of proteins

• , measured by dynamic light scattering (DLS): blue: MspA (1.688 × 10−5 mg·mL−1) in (5 × 10−5)× PBS; red: MspA (1.688 × 10−5 mg·mL−1) in 1× PBS. The relative experimental error in diameter has been determined to be ±8 nm. Typical polydispersities of the formed supramolecular aggregates are provided in
