Preparation of dually, pH- and thermo-responsive nanocapsules in inverse miniemulsion

pH- and thermo-sensitive nanocapsules were successfully synthesized via inverse miniemulsion copolymerization of N-isopropyl acrylamide (NIPAM), N,N'-methylene bisacrylamide (MBA), and a functional monomer, 4-vinyl pyridine (4-VP). The size and size distribution of nanocapsules were measured by dynamic light scattering (DLS). The particle morphology was observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The final morphology of particles was strongly influenced by the hydrophobicity of functional monomers. The use of a hydrophilic functional monomer, acrylic acid, led to the formation of solid particles, while the use of the more hydrophobic functional monomer, 4-VP, resulted in the formation of nanocapsules. The particle morphology, size, and size distribution were investigated in terms of the content of 4-VP, MBA, and the type and content of surfactant. The pH- and thermo-sensitivities were characterized by measuring the size variation with the change of temperature and pH. The organic-inorganic nanocapsules were prepared by coating a layer of silica particles on the surface of the sensitive nanocapsules.     

Synthesis of polymeric nanocapsules with a crosslinked shell through interfacial miniemulsion polymerization

A water‐soluble comonomer, N‐isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM), and an oil‐soluble crosslinker, divinylbenzene (DVB), have been combined in a system for the synthesis of nanocapsules with crosslinked shells through interfacial miniemulsion polymerization by encapsulating a liquid nonsolvating hydrocarbon. Oligomers of poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) were dehydrated and separated from the aqueous phase and were adsorbed by the nanodroplets or latex particles and then anchored at their interfaces by means of a crosslinking reaction. Nanocapsules were then formed through encapsulation of the hydrocarbon by the newly produced polymers at the interfaces of the droplets. The crosslinked structure gradually grew to stabilize the shell morphology. The incorporation of NIPAM into the shell copolymers has been verified by FTIR and solid‐state ¹³C NMR data. The fact that the number of nanocapsules increases with increasing amounts of DVB and NIPAM supports the formation of nanocapsules following interfacial (co)polymerization. Therefore, a mechanism for the formation of nanocapsules through interfacial (co)polymerization induced by NIPAM and DVB is proposed. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effect of pH on direct electron transfer in the system gold electrode-recombinant horseradish peroxidase.

The effect of pH on the kinetics of the bioelectrocatalytic reduction of H(2)O(2) catalysed by horseradish peroxidase (HRP) has been studied at -50 mV vs. Agmid R:AgCl on HRP-modified Au electrodes placed in a wall-jet flow-through electrochemical cell. Native HRP (nHRP) and a nonglycosylated recombinant form containing a six-histidine tag at the C-terminus, C(His)rHRP, produced by genetic engineering of nonglycosylated recombinant HRP using an E. coli expression system, have been used for adsorptive modification of Au electrodes. A favourable adsorption of C(His)rHRP on pre-oxidized Au from a protein solution at pH 6.0 provided a high and stable current response to H(2)O(2) due to its bioelectrocatalytic reduction based on direct (mediator-less) electron transfer (ET) between Au and the active site of HRP. The heterogeneous ET rate constant, k(s), calculated from experimental data on direct ET, on mediated ET in the presence of catechol as well as from microbalance data, increased more than 30 times when changing from nHRP to C(His)rHRP. For both forms of HRP, the increasing efficiency of bioelectrocatalysis with increasing [H(3)O(+)] was observed. The values of the apparent k(s) between C(His)rHRP and Au changed from a value of 12+/-2 s(-1) in PBS at pH 8.0 to a value of 434+/-62 s(-1) at pH 6.0; a similar k(s)-pH dependence was also observed for nHRP, providing the possibility to consider the reaction mechanism involving the participation of a proton in the rate-determining step of the charge transfer.     

Self-assembly of an environmentally responsive polymer/silica nanocomposite

Thermoresponsive nanocomposite thin films composed of alternating layers of silica and polymerized N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) or NIPAM plus dodecyl methacrylate (DM) hydrogels were prepared by surfactant-directed evaporation-induced self-assembly (EISA). During EISA, the organic monomers partition within the hydrophobic domains of a lamellar mesophase. In-situ polymerization via a free radical process results in a 1-2 nm thick hydrogel phase sandwiched between layers of silica oriented parallel to the substrate surface. The thermoresponsiveness of PNIPAM is preserved in this confined environment, and the polymeric layers reversibly swell and deswell by a factor of 2 in water upon temperature changes around the transition temperature of PNIPAM (32 degrees C). The composition, mesostructure, and environmental response were studied by detailed NMR, TGA, and SAXS analyses.     

Immobilization of Horseradish Peroxidase on Nonwoven Polyester Fabric Coated with Chitosan

The immobilization of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) on composite membrane has been investigated. This membrane was prepared by coating nonwoven polyester fabric with chitosan glutamate in the presence of glutraldehyde as a crosslinking agent. The physico-chemical properties of soluble and immobilized HRP were evaluated. The soluble HRP lost 90% of its activity after 4 weeks of storage at 4°C, whereas the immobilized enzyme retained 85% of its original activity at the same time. A reusability study of immobilized HRP showed that the enzyme retained 54% of its activity after 10 cycles of reuse. Soluble and immobilized HRP showed the same pH optima at pH 5.5. The immobilized enzyme had significant stability at different pH values, where it had maximum stability at pH 3.0 and 6.0. The kinetic properties indicated that the immobilized enzyme had more affinity toward substrates than soluble enzyme. The soluble and immobilized enzymes had temperature optima at 30 and 40°C and were stable up to 40 and 50°C, respectively. The stability of HRP against metal ion inactivation was improved after immobilization. Immobilized HRP exhibited high resistance to proteolysis by trypsin. The immobilized HRP was more resistant to inactivation induced by urea, Triton X-100, and organic solvents compared to its soluble counterpart. The immobilized HRP showed very high yield of immobilization and markedly high stabilization against several forms of denaturants that offer potential for several applications.     

Effects of AC‐Electrolysis on the Enzymatic Activity of Glucose Oxidase

The change in the activity of glucose oxidase subjected to an asymmetrical alternating current (AC) electric field is investigated via horseradish peroxidase (HRP)‐coupled bioassay. The effect of the amplitude, frequency and enzyme concentration have been shown to affect the enzyme activity towards glucose oxidation. The decrease in the enzyme activity is directly related to the change in pH and temperature of the GOx solution during AC electrolysis. The enzyme activity reduces with increasing amplitude, enzyme concentration and decreasing frequency. Results from UV‐vis, FT‐IR and UV CD spectroscopy showed that the AC treated GOx samples undergo structural modifications.
