2.5.3. Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy

A Zeiss Elyra PS-1 microscope (Jena, Germany) was used to perform confocal laser scanning microscopy on blank SLH. Silica microparticles were labeled with rhodamine B and lipids were labeled with coumarin 6. Confocal images were captured at the emission wavelength of 488 nm for coumarin 6 (excitation wavelength 497 nm) and 625 nm for rhodamine B (excitation wavelength 540 nm).
