A reproducible methodology is described for the synthesis, by following the double emulsion/solvent evaporation technique,
of magnetic nanocomposites (average diameter ≈ 135 nm) consisting of maghemite nuclei and a biodegradable poly(d,l-lactide-co-glycolide) matrix. The heterogeneous structure of the nanoparticles can confer them the responsiveness to magnetic gradients,
giving both the possibility of their use as a drug delivery system and adequate heating characteristics for a hyperthermia
effect. The physical chemistry of the nanocomposites was extensively characterized, this establishing that their surface properties
were similar to that of pure poly(d,l-lactide-co-glycolide). From an electrokinetic point of view, zeta potential determinations (as a function of the ionic strength, and
pH) pointed out that the nanocomposites were almost indistinguishable from the copolymer. The surface thermodynamic analysis
agreed with the electrophoretic one in suggesting that the coverage of the magnetic nuclei was complete, since the hydrophilic
nature of maghemite was modified and the nanoparticles turned into hydrophobic, just like the copolymer, when they were embedded
into poly(d,l-lactide-co-glycolide). The magnetic behaviours of the composite nanoparticles were also checked. Their heating properties were studied
in vitro in a high-frequency alternating gradient of magnetic field: a stable maximum temperature of 47 °C was satisfactorily
achieved within 45 min. Blood compatibility of the nanocomposites was also defined in vitro. To our knowledge, this is the
first time that such kind of magnetic-sensitive nanoformulation with very promising characteristics (e.g. blood compatibility,
magnetic drug targeting capabilities, and hyperthermia) has been developed for therapeutic purposes. 相似文献

Since violacein—an antibiotic, antiviral, and antiparasitic compound—exhibits poor solubility in water, polymeric poly-(d,l-lactide-co-glycolide) nanoparticles containing this compound improved its solubility and biological activity. The nanoparticles
were prepared by the nanoprecipitation method and characterized in terms of average diameter, zeta potential, drug loading,
polymer recovery, in vitro release kinetic, and in vitro antibacterial activity. Nanoparticles with diameters between 116
and 139 nm and negative-charged outer surfaces were obtained. Drug-loading efficiency and polymer recovery were 87 and 93%,
respectively. In vitro release kinetics assays showed that violacein loaded in these nanoparticles has sustained release behavior
until 5 days. Both free and nanoparticles-loaded violacein exhibited in vitro antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 and ATCC 25923 strains and exhibiting around two to five times lower minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) than
free violacein, respectively. The encapsulated violacein was efficient against methicilin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains. No significant activity against Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica was found. 相似文献

Amphiphilic block copolymers are well established as building blocks for the preparation of micellar drug carriers. The functional
polymer micelles possess several advantages, such as high drug efficiency, targeted delivery, and minimized cytotoxicity.
The synthesis of block copolymers using nano-structured templates has emerged as a useful and versatile approach for preparing
drug carriers. Here, we report the synthesis of a smart polymeric compound of a diblock PLA-Lys-b-PEG copolymer containing doxorubicin. We have synthesized functionalized diblock copolymers, with lysinol, poly(lactide)
and monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol) via thermal ring-opening polymerization and a subsequent six-step substitution reaction.
A variety of spectroscopic methods were employed here to verify the product of our synthesis. 1H-Nuclear magnetic resonance and Fourier transform infrared studies validated the expected synthesis of copolymers. Doxorubicin
is chemically loaded into micelles, and the ex vitro release can be evaluated either in weak acidic or in SBF solution by
UV–vis spectroscopy. Dynamic light scattering, thermo gravimetric analysis, and size exclusion chromatography have also been
used. 相似文献

The development of anticancer drug delivery systems based on biodegradable nanoparticles has been intended to maximize the
localization of chemotherapy agents within tumor interstitium, along with negligible drug distribution into healthy tissues.
Interestingly, passive and active drug targeting strategies to cancer have led to improved nanomedicines with great tumor
specificity and efficient chemotherapy effect. One of the most promising areas in the formulation of such nanoplatforms is
the engineering of magnetically responsive nanoparticles. In this way, we have followed a chemical modification method for
the synthesis of magnetite/chitosan-l-glutamic acid (core/shell) nanostructures. These magnetic nanocomposites (average size ≈340 nm) exhibited multifunctional
properties based on its capability to load the antitumor drug doxorubicin (along with an adequate sustained release) and its
potential for hyperthermia applications. Compared to drug surface adsorption, doxorubicin entrapment into the nanocomposites
matrix yielded a higher drug loading and a slower drug release profile. Heating characteristics of the magnetic nanocomposites
were investigated in a high-frequency alternating magnetic gradient: a stable maximum temperature of 46 °C was successfully
achieved within 40 min. To our knowledge, this is the first time that such kind of stimuli-sensitive nanoformulation with
very important properties (i.e., magnetic targeting capabilities, hyperthermia, high drug loading, and little burst drug release)
has been formulated for combined antitumor therapy against cancer. 相似文献

In the current study, we have described the synthesis and the physical properties of poly(aniline-co-m-bromoaniline) conducting copolymers. The copolymers of different composition are essentially obtained by varying the molar feed ratio of the two monomers. The higher solubility of the copolymers could be procured as compared to polyaniline (PA) in different solvents. The electrical conductivity has been studied by two-probe method; at room temperature, the conductivity of the copolymer decreases upon increasing the molar ratio of m-bromoaniline monomer. The introduction of bromine (–Br) group reduces the degree of conjugation in the polymer chain. Thus, conduction of electrons is prohibited along the conjugated system. In the thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), a three-stage decomposition of the copolymer has been observed. The copolymers of poly(aniline-co-m-bromoaniline) are thermally stable at high temperature. The composition of the copolymer has been confirmed from the binding energies of C–C, C–N, and C–Br in the XPS study. 相似文献

A novelty approach to self-assembling stereocomplex micelles by enantiomeric PLA–PEG block copolymers as a drug delivery carrier
was described. The particles were encapsulated by enantiomeric PLA–PEG stereocomplex to form nanoscale micelles different
from the microspheres or the single micelles by PLLA or PDLA in the reported literatures. First, the block copolymers of enantiomeric
poly(l-lactide)–poly(ethylene–glycol) (PLLA–PEG) and poly(D-lactide)–poly(ethylene–glycol) (PDLA–PEG) were synthesized by the ring-opening polymerization of l-lactide and d-lactide in the presence of monomethoxy PEG, respectively. Second, the stereocomplex block copolymer micelles were obtained
by the self-assembly of the equimolar mixtures of enantiomeric PLA–PEG copolymers in water. These micelles possessed partially
the crystallized hydrophobic cores with the critical micelle concentrations (cmc) in the range of 0.8–4.8 mg/l and the mean
hydrodynamic diameters ranging from 40 to 120 nm. The micelle sizes and cmc values obviously depended on the hydrophobic block
PLA content in the copolymer. Compared with the single PLLA–PEG or PDLA–PEG micelles, the cmc values of the stereocomplex
micelles became lower and the sizes of the stereocomplex micelles formed smaller. And lastly, the stereocomplex micelles encapsulated
with rifampin were tested for the controlled release application. The rifampin loading capacity and encapsulation efficiency
by the stereocomplex micelles were higher than those by the single polymer micelles, respectively. The drug release time in vitro was depending on the composites of the block copolymers and also could be controlled by the polymer molecular weight and
the morphology of the polymer micelles. 相似文献

l-Tryptophan-capped carbon quantum dots (l-CQDs) were facilely synthesized through “green” methodology, and the obtained material was utilized as a sensitive and selective fluorescence sensor for mercury ion (Hg2+) in pure aqueous solutions. Carboxyl-functionalized CQDs were first green synthesized by a one-step hydrothermal route, and l-tryptophan was then attached to CQDs via direct surface condensation reaction in aqueous solution at room temperature. The as-synthesized l-CQDs had an average size of ca. 5 nm with a good dispersity in water, and exhibited a favorable selectivity for Hg2+ ions over a range of other common metal cations in aqueous solution (10 mM PBS buffer, pH 6.0). Upon the addition of Hg2+, a complete fluorescence quenching (ON–OFF switching) of l-CQDs was evident from the fluorescence titration experiment, and the fluorescence detection limit of Hg2+ was calculated to be 11 nM, which indicated that the obtained environmentally friendly l-CQDs had sensitive detection capacity for Hg2+ in aqueous solution. 相似文献

A novel methodology for incorporating gentamicin into macromolecular complexes with anionic homo- and block copolymers via
cooperative electrostatic interactions is described. Block copolymers of poly(ethylene oxide-b-sodium acrylate) (PEO-b-PAA−
+Na) or poly(ethylene oxide-b-sodium methacrylate) (PEO-b-PMA−
+Na) were blended with PAA− Na+ and complexed with the polycationic antibiotic gentamicin. Gentamicin nanoplexes made with PEO-b-PMA−
+Na/PAA−
+Na (PMPG) and analogous nanoplexes with PEO-b-PAA−
+Na/PAA−
+Na (PAPG) had mean intensity average diameters of 120 and 90 nm, zeta potentials of −17 and −11 mv, and incorporated 26% and
23% by weight of gentamicin, respectively. Gentamicin release rates at physiological pH from nanoplexes were relatively slow.
PAPG and PMPG as drug delivery systems for treating murine salmonellosis at doses similar to the free gentamicin experiments
resulted in reduced numbers of viable bacteria in the liver and spleen. Polymeric nanoplexes developed by this methodology
can potentially improve targeting of intracellular pathogens. 相似文献

It is inferred from the analysis of the experimental data that the reduced probabilities of isovector l-forbidden M1 transitions achieve maximum values in nuclei with a magic core. The minimum values are related to γ transitions in nuclei
belonging to the region of stable deformation with A ≈ 25. Isovector l-forbidden M1 transitions in mirror nuclei are explored. The ratio of the reduced probabilities for proton and neutron transitions shows
the maximum deviation from the theoretical evaluations for the pair of nuclei 41Ca-41Sc consisting of the even-even magic core 40Ca and one nucleon outside the closed 1d2s shell. 相似文献

The electrocatalytic oxidation of l-tyrosine (Tyr) was investigated on a carboxylic acid functionalised multi-walled carbon nanotubes modified carbon paste electrode using cyclic voltammetry and amperometry. The surface morphology of the electrodes was studied using field emission (FE)-SEM images, and the interface properties of bare and modified electrodes were investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The influence of the amount of modifier loading and the variation of the pH of the solution on the electrochemical parameters have been investigated. Cyclic voltammetry was carried out to study the electrochemical oxidation mechanism of Tyr, which showed an irreversible oxidation process at a potential of 637.0 mV at modified electrode. The anodic peak current linearly increased with the scan rate, suggesting that the oxidation of Tyr at modified electrode is an adsorption-controlled process. A good linear relationship between the oxidation peak current and the Tyr concentration in the range of 0.8–100.0 μM was obtained in a phosphate buffer solution at pH 7.0 with a detection limit of 14.0?±?1.36 nM (S/N?=?3). The practical utility of the sensor was demonstrated by determining Tyr in spiked cow’s milk and human blood serum. The modified electrode showed excellent reproducibility, long-term stability and antifouling effects. 相似文献

A series of moderately conducting and soluble copolymers of poly(aniline-co-o-bromoaniline) (PA-co-o-BrA) having different compositions was obtained by in the situ copolymerization method using different concentrations of monomer units of aniline and o-bromoaniline in the feed. The physio-chemical properties of the copolymers have been studied with sophisticated instrumental techniques. The electrochemical study of the copolymers was conducted by cyclic voltammetry. The band gap of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of the copolymers was evaluated by UV-vis spectroscopy. The morphological study was conducted by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy at high magnification which shows non-uniform tubular to globular morphology of the copolymers. Surface profiles of the polymers were studied by AFM analyses, and it has confirmed the smooth surface of the copolymers while the homopolymers possesses non-uniform surfaces. The particle size distribution curve indicates that the particle sizes vary in the range of 5 to 9000 nm, and a small fraction of particles possess a size in the range of 5–10 nm. 相似文献

the MCR technique, which involved the reaction of aminotriazoles, isocyanides and aldehydes. The products were characterized
by 1H, 13C NMR spectroscopy, MS and elemental analysis. Interestingly, compounds 19d, 21a, 21b and 21h displayed good cytotoxic activities

Monte-Carlo computer modeling was used to investigate the conformal behavior of a single chain AB block copolymer with mobile hydrophobic B-blocks and hydrophilic A-links. The formation of a “tailed globule” was observed with an increase of the energy of attraction between hydrophobic links. A comparison between the collapsing of a chain with mobile blocks and the behavior of regular and random block copolymers of the same structure was conducted. 相似文献

This study reports the structural characterization of a disulfonimide derivative, 4-methyl-N-(4-methylphenylsulfonyl)-N-phenylbenzenesulfonamide (MPBSA), using spectroscopic and quantum chemical methods. The molecule was characterized with FT-IR, 1H 13C NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopies. Quantum chemical calculations of molecular geometry, vibrational wavenumbers and gauge including atomic orbital (GIAO) 1H and 13C-NMR chemical shifts of the compound were carried out by using density functional method (DFT) at B3LYP/6?311++G(d,p) level of theory. Electronic absorption spectra of the compound have been computed using the time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) method at the same level. A satisfactory consistency between the experimental and theoretical findings was obtained. The antimicrobial activity screening of the compound was performed on some bacteria and fungus species using microdilution method. The results showed that the title molecule have noteworthy antibacterial and antifungal activities. 相似文献

A new copolymer, poly(methyl methacrylate-co-butyl acrylate) (P(MMA-co-BA)), was synthesized by emulsion polymerization with different mass ratio of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and butyl acrylate (BA). The membranes were prepared by phase inversion and corresponding gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) were obtained by immersing the membrane into a liquid electrolyte. In this design, the hard monomer MMA provided the copolymer with good electrolyte uptake, while the soft monomer BA provided the GPE with strong adhesion between the anode and cathode of lithium ion battery. The properties of the resulting product were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance spectra, scanning electron spectroscopy, linear sweep voltammetry, thermogravimetric analysis, cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and charge/discharge test. The results show that the obtained GPE based on P(MMA-co-BA) with the mass ratios of MMA and BA = 6:1 exhibits good conductivity (as high as 1.2 × 10?3 S cm?1) at room temperature and high electrochemical stability (up to 4.9 V vs. Li/Li+). With the application of the polyethylene (PE)-supported GPE in Li/Li(Li0.13Ni0.30Mn0.57)O2 battery, the battery presents good cyclic stability (maintaining 95.4 % of its initial discharge capacity after 50 cycles) at room temperature. 相似文献

Nano-hydroxyapatite (HA)/poly(l-lactide) (PLLA) composite microspheres with relatively uniform size distribution were prepared by a solid-in-oil-in-water
(s/o/w) emusion solvent evaporation method. The encapsulation of the HA nanopaticles in microshperes was significantly improved
by grafting PLLA on the surface of the HA nanoparticles (p-HA) during emulsion process. This procedure gave a possibility
to obtain p-HA/PLLA composite microspheres with uniform morphology and the encapsulated p-HA nanoparticle loading reached
up to 40 wt% (33 wt% of pure HA) in the p-HA/PLLA composite microspheres. The microstructure of composite microspheres from
core-shell to single phase changed with the variation of p-HA to PLLA ratios. p-HA/PLLA composite microspheres with the diameter
range of 2–3 μm were obtained. The entrapment efficiency of p-HA in microspheres could high up to 90 wt% and that of HA was
only 13 wt%. Surface and bulk characterizations of the composite microspheres were performed by measurements such as wide
angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM) and
transmission electron microscopy (TEM). 相似文献

A novel biodegradable 1,2,3-triazolium-functionalized PEG-b-PCL copolymer (TAPEC) was synthesized by the “click” coupling of methoxypolyethylene glycol azide and α-propargyl-ω-hydroxyl-poly(ε-caprolactone), followed by the quaternization of the 1,2,3-triazole moiety with iodomethane. All the intermediates and TAPEC were characterized by 1H NMR, FT-IR, and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Taking advantage of the characteristics of ionic liquid and block copolymer, this ion-containing diblock copolymer is expected to be used as a novel compatibilizer in mixed biopolyester for regulating the interface and crystallization behaviors. Hence, the TAPEC was evaluated as a compatibilizer and an interface emulsifier in the blends of polylactic acid (PLA) and poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL). Non-isothermal crystallization experimental results showed that the TAPEC with the higher amount of ε-caprolactone units induces a plasticization and nucleate effect that increased the crystallization ability of the PLA phase; meanwhile, in the PCL phase, the agminated ionic cluster acting as a nucleating agent significantly increased the crystalline of PCL. 相似文献

The decay of mesons K + → π ? l + l′+ and D + → K ? l + l′+ (l, l′ = e, μ) involving a change of lepton number ΔL = 2 is considered in a supersymmetric extension of the standard model in which R-parity is not conserved due to trilinear Yukawa interactions. The obtained estimates for the probabilities of these decays are significantly lower than the direct experimental upper limits. 相似文献
