Growth and Origami Folding of DNA on Nanoparticles for High‐Efficiency Molecular Transport in Cellular Imaging and Drug Delivery

A novel three‐dimensional (3D) superstructure based on the growth and origami folding of DNA on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) was developed. The 3D superstructure contains a nanoparticle core and dozens of two‐dimensional DNA belts folded from long single‐stranded DNAs grown in situ on the nanoparticle by rolling circle amplification (RCA). We designed two mechanisms to achieve the loading of molecules onto the 3D superstructures. In one mechanism, ligands bound to target molecules are merged into the growing DNA during the RCA process (merging mechanism). In the other mechanism, target molecules are intercalated into the double‐stranded DNAs produced by origami folding (intercalating mechanism). We demonstrated that the as‐fabricated 3D superstructures have a high molecule‐loading capacity and that they enable the high‐efficiency transport of signal reporters and drugs for cellular imaging and drug delivery, respectively.     

Two-level antibacterial coating with both release-killing and contact-killing capabilities

Using a combination of an aqueous layer-by-layer deposition technique, nanoparticle surface modification chemistry, and nanoreactor chemistry, we constructed thin film coatings with two distinct layered functional regions: a reservoir for the loading and release of bactericidal chemicals and a nanoparticle surface cap with immobilized bactericides. This results in dual-functional bactericidal coatings bearing both chemical-releasing bacteria-killing capacity and contact bacteria-killing capacity. These dual-functional coatings showed very high initial bacteria-killing efficiency due to the release of Ag ions and retained significant antibacterial activity after the depletion of embedded Ag because of the immobilized quaternary ammonium salts.

Fabrication and Characterization of Cysteine-Functionalized Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles for Enzyme Immobilization

A green approach is reported for the synthesis of cysteine-functionalized zinc oxide nanoparticles using potato extract as a nontoxic and economical reducing agent. The cysteine-functionalized nanoparticles were used as a support for enzyme immobilization. The structural morphology, crystallinity, and surface functionalization were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and infrared spectroscopy, respectively. Spherical nanoparticles from 150 to 200?nm were used to evaluate the immobilization efficiency for urease through covalent attachment on the glutaraldehyde-activated amino group of cysteine. In comparison to the unmodified nanoparticles, 62.9% enzyme loading with 72.45% of enzyme specific activity was recovered which was 56% higher than on bare zinc oxide nanoparticles. The point of addition of cysteine during the nanoparticle synthesis had a direct effect on the immobilization efficiency. The immobilized enzyme-specific activity was reduced to 34.32% when cysteine was added following the nanoparticle synthesis. With a facile synthesis procedure and significant immobilization efficiency, cysteine-functionalized zinc oxide nanoparticles were shown to be suitable for various clinical and industrial applications.     

Enhanced ferroelectric phase content of polyvinylidene difluoride fibers with the addition of magnetic nanoparticles

Polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) fibers with continuously dispersed ferrite (Ni 0.5Zn 0.5Fe 2O 4) nanoparticles were prepared by electrospinning from dimethyl formamide (DMF) solutions. The effects of the electrospinning processing conditions and nanoparticle loading on the formation of the alpha, beta, and gamma phases of PVDF were studied using infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. The amount of the ferroelectric beta and gamma phases present in the fibers was found to increase with increased nanoparticle loading. We have shown that the formation of PVDF phases with extended chain conformations can be enhanced by the addition of a well-dispersed nanoparticle phase. At increased nanoparticle loadings, the alpha phase is completely converted to the more extended beta and gamma phases.     

How Many Phosphoric Acid Units Are Required to Ensure Uniform Occlusion of Sterically Stabilized Nanoparticles within Calcite?

Polymerization‐induced self‐assembly (PISA) mediated by reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization offers a platform technology for the efficient and versatile synthesis of well‐defined sterically stabilized block copolymer nanoparticles. Herein we synthesize a series of such nanoparticles with tunable anionic charge density within the stabilizer chains, which are prepared via statistical copolymerization of anionic 2‐(phosphonooxy)ethyl methacrylate (P) with non‐ionic glycerol monomethacrylate (G). Systematic variation of the P/G molar ratio enables elucidation of the minimum number of phosphate groups per copolymer chain required to promote nanoparticle occlusion within a model inorganic crystal (calcite). Moreover, the extent of nanoparticle occlusion correlates strongly with the phosphate content of the steric stabilizer chains. This study is the first to examine the effect of systemically varying the anionic charge density of nanoparticles on their occlusion efficiency and sheds new light on maximizing the loading of guest nanoparticles within calcite host crystals.     

PBD/PDMS共混物分散相的聚并捕获行为

Brookite TiO2 Nanoparticle Films for Dye‐Sensitized Solar Cells

Brookite TiO₂ nanoparticles have been synthesized at low temperature by a soft solution growth method and have been used as building blocks to prepare pure brookite nanoparticle porous films. The film brookite structure was confirmed by XRD and Raman spectroscopy. By spectrophotometry, it was shown that the films had a direct band gap of 3.4 eV. After sensitization by the N719 dye, efficient cells have been produced. A best overall conversion efficiency of 5.97 %, without a scattering layer, was found for the larger TiO₂ starting nanoparticles. The cell open‐circuit voltage was improved compared with that of anatase cells and a lower electron diffusion coefficient was found in the photoanodes made of smaller brookite particles. Lanthanum‐doped brookite nanoparticle films were also studied. They showed a marked decreased in the amount of dye loading, and hence, the solar cells had a reduced current density that was not compensated for by the increased open‐circuit voltage of the cells.     

Construction of Hyaluronic Acid-Covered Hierarchically Porous MIL-nanoMOF for Loading and Controlled Release of Doxorubicin

The porous nano-sized metal–organic framework (nanoMOF) and its proper surface modification could greatly promote the drug loading capability and introduce biocompatibility, biodegradability, and targeting functions into nano-drug delivery systems. Herein, the HACD@ADA-PA/MIL-101_NH₂ (Fe)-P nanoparticle was successfully fabricated through supramolecular and coordination interactions from three building blocks, including hierarchically porous MIL-101_NH₂ (Fe)-P nanoMOF, phosphite-modified adamantane (ADA-PA), and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)-modified hyaluronic acid (HACD). The obtained HACD@ADA-PA/MIL-101_NH₂ (Fe)-P nanoparticle was nano-sized and highly stable in physiological fluids. The porous structure of HACD@ADA-PA/MIL-101_NH₂ (Fe)-P nanoparticle could effectively load the commercial chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (DOX) with an encapsulation rate of 41.20 % and a loading rate of 48.84 %. The obtained drug-loaded HACD@ADA-PA/MIL-101_NH₂ (Fe)-P@DOX nanoparticle was pH-sensitive and relatively stable at neutral condition (pH 7.2) but could release DOX in a controlled way in subacid solution at pH 5.7. The simulated in vitro DOX release experiment signified that the HACD@ADA-PA/MIL-101_NH₂ (Fe)-P@DOX nanoparticle could realize the controlled release of DOX in tumor issues.
