Particles were dispersed with two ultrasonic dispersion (USD) energies as described in the Method section and measured in either H₂O or F-12K medium (Column “Fluid”) at concentrations suitable for DLS measurement (Column: “Concentration”); n.m.: not measured; v_sed: sedimentation velocity, x_cum: mean particle size, PDI: polydispersity index.
