Bioactive textiles by sol–gel immobilised natural active agents

The sol–gel immobilisation and controlled release of various bioactive liquids (BL) from within modified silica coatings were investigated, in order to evaluate the suitability of functionalised textiles for the following applications: (1) skin-friendly textiles with antimicrobial and antiallergic effects due to immobilised natural oils such as evening primrose and perilla oil; (2) textiles for therapeutic treatment of the respiratory tract by means of immobilised mixtures of high volatility natural agents such as eucalyptol, camphor and menthol. Results indicating the antimicrobial properties, washfastness and medical activity of the bioactive textiles are presented. Of note is the transdermal resorption of the BL from the sol–gel coated textiles, determined by the time-dependent concentration of cineol, camphor and menthol in the air exhaled by test subjects after the application of coated textiles. When compared to the application of an ointment, not only does the use of coated textiles offer a more continuous and prolonged release of the embedded BL, but it is also more convenient.     

Synthesis of 2-Azanorbornanes via Strain-Release Formal Cycloadditions Initiated by Energy Transfer

Rigid bicycles are becoming more popular in the pharmaceutical industry because they allow for expansion to new and unique chemical spaces. This work describes a new strategy to construct 2-azanorbornanes, which can act as rigid piperidine/pyrrolidine scaffolds with well-defined exit vectors. To achieve the synthesis of 2-azanorbornanes, new strain-release reagent, azahousane, is introduced along with its photosensitized strain-release formal cycloaddition with alkenes. Furthermore, new reactivity between a housane and an imine is disclosed. Both strategies lead to various substituted 2-azanorbornanes with good selectivities.     

CO2 capture capacity of five- and six-membered cyclic amidines bearing silatranyl group under dry conditions

CO₂ capture and release behaviors of three amidines bearing silatranyl group in DMSO solution were evaluated under dry conditions containing a very small amount of water. A six-membered cyclic amidine with silatranyl group captured CO₂ at 25 °C under atmospheric pressure quantitatively, and the trapped CO₂ was released at 60 °C under Ar atmosphere. A five-membered cyclic amidine with silatranyl group also captured CO₂, but less efficiently, under the same conditions as above. In contrast, an acyclic amidine with silatranyl group did not capture CO₂ at all, as expected from the poor CO₂-capturing ability of the acyclic amidine moiety.     

A nanocarrier based on poly(D,L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) for transporting Na~+ and Cl~- to induce apoptosis

Transmembrane anion transporters have attracted significant attention as therapeutic agents because of their potential to disrupt cellular ion homeostasis,in which,most of the synthetic anionic transporters are organic small molecules whose synthesis routes are usually complex and tedious,and the related biological research is also only in infancy.Hence,we synthesized a kind of chloride anion(Cl-) and sodium cation(Na~+) nanocarrier based on poly(D,L-lactic-co-glycolic acid)(PLGA) which was coated with polydopamine(PDA) to provide target release factor.When the nanocarrier arrives in acidic enviro nment such as lysosomes through endocytosis,Cl~-and Na~+ will be released fast from the nanocarrier resulting in imbalance of cell homeostasis for inducing apoptosis.Cell experiments show that the nanocarrier promotes apoptosis and leads to an increased concentration of reactive oxygen species.By exploring the concentration of cytochrome c in mitochondria and cytoplasm and the activities of key enzymes caspase-9 and caspase-3 in apoptosis process,it is proved that the apoptotic pathway is caspase-dependent.This novel strategy allows the research of anion transporter no longer limited to artificial synthesis of small molecular and provides a novel and effective direction to investigate ion homeostasis,ion transport and cancer treatment.     

Multi-time scale characterization of acoustic droplet vaporization and payload release of phase-shift emulsions using high-speed microscopy

Acoustic droplet vaporization (ADV) is the phase-transitioning of perfluorocarbon emulsions, termed phase-shift emulsions, into bubbles using focused ultrasound. ADV has been utilized in many biomedical applications. For localized drug release, phase-shift emulsions with a bioactive payload can be incorporated within a hydrogel to yield an acoustically-responsive scaffold (ARS). The dynamics of ADV and associated drug release within hydrogels are not well understood. Additionally, emulsions used in ARSs often contain high molecular weight perfluorocarbons, which is unique relative to other ADV applications. In this study, we used ultra-high-speed brightfield and fluorescence microscopy, at frame rates up to 30 million and 0.5 million frames per second, respectively, to elucidate ADV dynamics and payload release kinetics in fibrin-based ARSs containing phase-shift emulsions with three different perfluorocarbons: perfluoropentane (PFP), perfluorohexane (PFH), and perfluorooctane (PFO). At an ultrasound excitation frequency of 2.5 MHz, the maximum expansion ratio, defined as the maximum bubble diameter during ADV normalized by the initial emulsion diameter, was 4.3 ± 0.8, 4.1 ± 0.6, and 3.6 ± 0.4, for PFP, PFH, PFO emulsions, respectively. ADV yielded stable bubble formation in PFP and PFH emulsions, though the bubble growth rate post-ADV was three orders of magnitudes slower in the latter emulsion. Comparatively, ADV generated bubbles in PFO emulsions underwent repeated vaporization/recondensation or fragmentation. Different ADV-generated bubble dynamics resulted in distinct release kinetics in phase-shift emulsions carrying fluorescently-labeled payloads. The results provide physical insight enabling the modulation of bubble dynamics with ADV and hence release kinetics, which can be used for both diagnostic and therapeutic applications of ultrasound.

以聚丙烯酸酯类系列水基聚合物包膜控释肥料为样品,测定了包膜肥料养分的释放曲线并原位测定了肥料包膜的中红外光声光谱,分析了不同肥料的养分释放曲线以及不同包膜材料的红外光声光谱特征;采用广义回归神经网络模型(GRNN),以肥料包膜红外光声光谱的主成分作为GRNN模型的输入层,并以包膜肥料养分释放曲线为输出层,构建了预测养分释放曲线的GRNN模型。结果表明,GRNN模型能快速有效地预测包膜肥料养分释放曲线,其预测相关系数(R2)达0.93以上;包膜的探测深度明显影响释放曲线的预测误差,最小预测误差为7.14%,平均为10.28%,且基于包膜表层红外光声光谱的预测误差最小。因此,结合GRNN模型,红外光声光谱可为包膜肥料养分释放曲线的快速预测提供新手段。     

Release of electrolytes from W/O/W double emulsions stabilized by a soluble complex of modified pectin and whey protein isolate

W/O/W double emulsions (DEs) stabilized by charged soluble complexes of whey protein isolate (WPI) and modified pectins were investigated in relation to their stability and the release of two types of electrolytes, NaCl and sodium ascorbate.WPI alone cannot properly stabilize the DEs. The droplet size is relatively large (100 μm) and increases with time. However, addition of modified pectin to form a soluble complex with WPI significantly improved the stability.DEs prepared with two types of oils (medium chain triglycerides (MCT) and R(+)-limonene) were studied by measuring droplet size, creaming, viscosity, and electrolyte release. Irrespective of their very different oil phase nature, both emulsions were stable against coalescence, but R(+)-limonene formed smaller droplets (25 μm) than MCT (35 μm). The electrolyte release rate was significantly higher from the R(+)-limonene that formed DEs with much lower viscosity. R(+)-limonene-DE released 75% of the NaCl after 28 days, while MCT-DE released only 50%. NaCl was released more slowly than sodium ascorbate.Apparently, the release mechanism from R(+)-limonene-DE was found to be “thinning the outer interface and release of the entire inner droplets” while it seems that the release from MCT-DE was slower and “diffusion controlled”.DEs stabilized by WPI/C63 released 12% of the sodium ascorbate after 1 day in milk and remained stable for at least 8 days. However, DEs stabilized with only WPI released about 50% of the sodium ascorbate after 1 day, and phase separated after 8 days.
