Study of Partitioning and Solubilization of Some New Chalcones Between Aqueous and Micellar Phases

The partitioning behavior of four newly synthesized chalcones between aqueous and micellar phases of ionic surfactants (SDS and CTAB) was investigated using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. The simple absorption spectra were recorded to study the interaction between these drugs and surfactants (in the concentration range below critical micelle concentration to above critical micelle concentration). The absorption data is also used to determine the number of additive molecules incorporated per micelle of the surfactant. The partition coefficient (K_x) of additives between bulk water phase and the micellar phase was determined in the range of 5.52 × 10⁺⁴ to 5.06 × 10⁺⁵ at 298 K by differential spectroscopic method. The corresponding standard free energy of partition ΔG°_p obtained was in the range of ?27.05 kJmol^?1 to ?32.54 kJmol^?1. The relative solubility of additives between aqueous and micellar phases in different micellar concentrations was also estimated. The results showed that the chalcones are preferably soluble in cationic surfactant micelles.

Measurement of Solubilization Location in Micelles Using Anchored Aggregation-Induced Emission Donors

Solubilization locations play a critical role in developing advanced surfactants and improving solubilization power in micelle-based applications. However, the current polarity-based techniques for measuring solubilization locations could come to conflicting conclusions. The key challenge is the unpredictable polarities in the micellar microenvironment. Now, an approach that is independent of micellar polarities is used to measure solubilization locations by covalently linking tetraphenylethylene (TPE) to the alkyl chain end of cationic surfactants. The solubilization locations of solubilized acceptors in the TPE-cored spherical micelles were accurately measured by calculating the Förster resonance energy transfer distance between anchored TPE donors and solubilized acceptors. Solubilization locations of solubilized substances in the micellar interior and at the micellar surface depend on their size and hydrophobicity, respectively.     

Micellar Solubilization of Proteins in Aprotic Solvents and their Spectroscopic Characterisation

The quaternary ammonium salt methyl-trioctylammonium chloride enables the transfer of α-chymotrypsin, trypsin, pepsin and glucagone from water to cyclohexane. Reversed micelles, whose polar core solubilizes both protein and water, are probably formed in the apolar phase. The influence of various parameters on the phase transfer (concentration, pH, solvent, temperature, etc.) has been investigated. Absorption, fluorescence and circular dichroism studies of the biopolymers in the cyclohexane system have been carried out. For trypsin and chymotrypsin, the CD. signal in the 200 nm region is very similar in water and in cyclohexane, which suggests that the polypeptide folding is not substantially different in the two phases. The fluorescence quantum yield is always much larger in the cyclohexane phase than in water. The longer wavelength region of the UV. absorption spectrum is slightly red-shifted relative to water, and a band at 225 nm, probably arising from the aromatic chromophore, is apparent in the organic phase. Reasons for these spectral perturbations are discussed. The enzymes transferred from water into cyclohexane phases can be continuously retransferred into a second water phase. The possible relevance of this ‘double transfer’ as a model for the vectorial transport of biopolymers or a separation technique is discussed.

Mechanism of the Micellar Solubilization of Curcumin by Mixed Surfactants of SDS and Brij35 via NMR Spectroscopy

The micellar solubilization mechanism of curcumin by mixed surfactants of SDS and Brij35 was investigated at the molecular scale by NMR spectroscopy. Through the investigation of the micelle formation process, types and structures of mixed micelles and solubilization sites, the intrinsic factors influencing the solubilization capacity were revealed. For systems with α_SDS = 0.5 and 0.2, the obtained molar solubilization ratios (MSRs) are consistent with the MSR_ideal values. However, for α_SDS = 0.8, the solubilization capacity of curcumin is weakened compared to the MSR_ideal. Furthermore, only one single mixed SDS/Brij35 micelles are formed for α_SDS = 0.5 and 0.2. However, for α_SDS = 0.8, there are separate SDS-rich and Brij35-rich mixed micelles formed. In addition, NOESY spectra show that the interaction patterns of SDS and Brij35 in mixed micelles are similar for three systems, as are the solubilization sites of curcumin. Therefore, for α_SDS = 0.5 and 0.2 with single mixed micelles formed, the solubility of curcumin depends only on the mixed micelle composition, which is almost equal to the surfactant molar ratio. Although curcumin is solubilized in both separate micelles at α_SDS = 0.8, a less stable micelle structure may be responsible for the low solubility. This study provides new insights into the investigation and application of mixed micelle solubilization.

Influence of Electrolytes on the Micellar Growth of Amphiphilic Drug Chlorpromazine Hydrochloride

The effect of electrolytes on the micellar behavior of an amphiphilic drug, chlorpromazine (CPZ) hydrochloride, was studied using cloud point (CP) and dye solubilization techniques. In the presence of KBr, increase in pH led to decrease in the CP of 50 mmol·L_-1 drug solution (prepared in 10 mmol·L_-1 sodium phosphate (SP) buffer) because of deprotonation of drug molecules at high pH. The visible absorbance increased (due to dye solubilization) with the increase in pH from 6.5 to 6.9, which indicated micellar growth. At fixed pH (6.7), addition of inorganic salts (KF, KCl, and KBr) to drug solutions (50 mmol·L_-1) caused an increase in the CP as well as in the visible absorbance, with effectiveness being in the order: F_- < Cl_- < Br_-. The results were discussed on the basis of counter-ion binding and their effect toward micellar growth. Cations (co-ions) also led to an increase in the CP (and also the visible absorbance), with their effectiveness order being Li₊ > Na₊ > K₊, which was explained by considering cognizance of their hydrated radii. Compared with anions, their effect was small. Increase in [CPZ] caused micellar growth and hence the CP as well as the visible absorbance increased. The overall behavior was discussed in terms of electrostatic interactions and micellar growth.     

Effects of Inorganic Salts on Micellization and Solubilization in an Aqueous Solution of Poly(ethylene oxide)/Poly(propylene oxide)/Poly(ethylene oxide) Triblock Copolymer

The effects of inorganic salts on micellization and solubilization of prednisolone in aqueous solution of poly(ethylene oxide)/poly(propylene oxide)/poly(ethylene oxide) triblock copolymer (Pluronic P85) were studied. The effect of inorganic salts on decrease in the cloud point and the critical micelle concentration (cmc) of Pluronic P85 was the order of Na₂HPO₄ > NaH₂PO₄ > NaCl > NaBr. Moreover, it was found that Pluronic P85 forms two kinds of micelles: monomolecular micelles and polymolecular micelles. The polymolecular micelle increased with increasing amount of added inorganic salts. Moreover, solubilization behavior is explained from the standpoint of salting out for prednisolone and association characteristics of Pluronic P85.

Exploring Effects of Chitosan Oligosaccharides on the DSS-Induced Intestinal Barrier Impairment In Vitro and In Vivo

Intestinal barrier dysfunction is an essential pathological change in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The mucus layer and the intestinal epithelial tight junction act together to maintain barrier integrity. Studies showed that chitosan oligosaccharide (COS) had a positive effect on gut health, effectively protecting the intestinal barrier in IBD. However, these studies usually focused on its impact on the intestinal epithelial tight junction. The influence of COS on the intestinal mucus layer is still poorly understood. In this study, we explored the effect of COS on intestinal mucus in vitro using human colonic mucus-secreted HT-29 cells. COS relieved DSS (dextran sulfate sodium)-induced mucus defects. Additionally, the structural characteristics of COS greatly influenced this activity. Finally, we evaluated the protective effect of COS on intestinal barrier function in mice with DSS-induced colitis. The results indicated that COS could manipulate intestinal mucus production, which likely contributed to its intestinal protective effects.

Chitosan-Based Ciprofloxacin Extended Release Systems: Combined Synthetic and Pharmacological (In Vitro and In Vivo) Studies

Ciprofloxacin is one of the most effective antibiotics, but it is characterized by a range of side effects. Elaboration of drug-releasing systems which allow to diminish toxicity of ciprofloxacin is a challenging task in medicinal chemistry. The current study is focused on development of new ciprofloxacin releasing systems (CRS). We found that ultrasound efficiently promotes N,N′-dicyclohexyl carbodiimide-mediated coupling between COOH and NH₂ functionalities in water. This was used for conjugation of ciprofloxacin to chitosan. The obtained ciprofloxacin/chitosan conjugates are capable of forming their self-assembled nanoparticles (SANPs) in aqueous medium. The SANPs can be additionally loaded by ciprofloxacin to form new CRS. The CRS demonstrated high loading and encapsulation efficiency and they are characterized by extended release profile (20 h). The elaborated CRS were tested in vivo in rats. The in vivo antibacterial effect of the CRS exceeded that of the starting ciprofloxacin. Moreover, the in vivo acute and subacute toxicity of the nanoparticles was almost identical to that of the chitosan, which is considered as the non-toxic biopolymer.
