A one‐step strategy to fabricate magnetically stirrable microparticles with geometric/chemical anisotropies via a microfluidic technique combined with partial phase separation is presented. Monodisperse oil‐in‐water microemulsions composed of magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) and two polymers, polystyrene and poly(d ,l ‐lactide‐co‐glycolide) (PLGA), dissolved in chloroform are generated using the microfluidic method. Upon incubating the microemulsions in pure water at ambient conditions, the solvent contained in the microemulsions is gradually removed and partial phase separation between the two polymers occurs spontaneously. In the meantime, the microemulsion droplets are vertically aligned due to the density difference of the two polymer phases. During the spontaneous phase separation, the MNPs become unstable and the aggregated MNPs segregate downward by gravity to the denser PLGA phase. After complete removal of the solvent, the resulting particles adopt geometric/chemical anisotropies, and they are magnetically rotatable under an external magnetic field. It is demonstrated that the morphology of the anisotropic particles can be controlled readily by adjusting the ratio of the two polymers as well as the concentration of MNPs. It is believed that the developed method based on the partial phase separation and the gravity‐induced segregation of the MNPs enables large‐scale production of magnetically stirrable microparticles. 相似文献

In this paper, the fabrication and characterization of multi‐drug‐loaded microparticles are demonstrated for topical glaucoma therapy. Specifically, latanoprost (“LAT”) and dexamethasone (“DEX”) are loaded in monodisperse microparticles (diameter ≈150 μm) of a biodegradable polymer–poly (lactic‐co‐glycolic) acid (PLGA)—using capillary microfluidics coupled with solvent evaporation. Both individual (LAT in PLGA and DEX in PLGA) and combined (LAT and DEX in PLGA) microparticle formulations are demonstrated. The morphology, size distribution and in vitro release kinetics are studied, and in vitro mucoadhesion of the formulated microparticles is also assessed. In addition, discussion is placed in how precise knowledge of the particle composition enabled by the microfluidic fabrication method and in vitro release rate measurements allow for facile topical formulation design and dose optimization. Such precision‐fabricated, multi‐drug loaded, sustained‐release microparticles are envisioned to serve as a promising platform for topical administration of ocular drugs. This could potentially reduce the frequency of eyedrop‐based drug administration from several times a day to merely once a day (or less), thus greatly facilitating patient compliance and adherence to a strict therapeutic drug regimen. 相似文献

AbstractAccurate identification and quantification of trace elements and their species in cells is an important prerequisite for the exploration of their physiological function and related mechanisms of process involving trace elements/species in human body. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is a powerful analytical instrument for trace elements detection, while it still suffers from insufficient limits of detection, interference from complex cell matrix, and incompatible sample consumption in cells analysis. Microfluidic chips which possess advantages of low sample/reagent consumption, rapid analysis speed and high spatial resolution provide perfect miniaturized and integrated platforms for cell analysis. In this article, microfluidic chip-ICP-MS techniques for trace elements and their species analysis in cells were reviewed. Both chip-based pretreatment techniques (e.g., magnetic solid phase microextraction (MSPME), monolithic capillary microextraction (MCME), liquid phase microextraction (LPME)) including chip-based array microextraction techniques for trace elements and their species analysis and droplet chip for single cell analysis were introduced. The newly developed methods of microfluidic chips in combination with ICP-MS for trace elements and their species analysis in small numbers of cells and even single cell were critically discussed, including chip-based MSPME/MCME/LPME-(electrothermal vaporization-ICP-)MS, on-line chip-based array MSPME/MCME-ICP-MS, on-line chip-based array MSPME-high performance liquid chromatography-ICP-MS and online droplet chip-time-resolved ICP-MS. These methodologies were demonstrated with high sensitivity, high throughput, good matrix resistance and low sample/reagent consumption, contributing to the quantification of trace elements/species in cells and even single cells. Relevant 20 references are included herein, and the development trend of microfluidic chip-ICP-MS techniques for cells analysis is prospected. 相似文献

We have determined the fluorescence yield of stained micro beads, used for calibration purposes in flow cytometry, as function of the irradiance of the exciting laser beam. A rate equation model has been applied to derive the number of fluorescence molecules carried by each micro bead. To derive in situ photo-physical properties of the specific dye, required for the rate equation model, we discuss an approach based on flow cytometric sorting of micro beads, which have passed two laser beams with properly chosen different irradiances, and subsequent observation of single molecule bleaching employing high sensitivity microscopy. The feasibility of our approach is demonstrated presenting first results concerning saturation of fluorescence of beads in flow and single molecule bleaching by high sensitivity microscopy. 相似文献

铵(NH+4)的光谱检测有着重要的意义,随着微流控领域的发展,以快速性、便携性以及多组分检测为目标的微流控光谱分析成效卓著。但是分析中存在的指示剂浪费问题一直没有得到解决。锌卟啉作为一种天然的自发光分子,能够实现NH+4的可逆性检测,解决这一问题,但却存在选择性低的缺点。针对这些问题,实验设计了一种耦合微流控芯片,由反应芯片、气体扩散芯片和检测芯片组成。其中反应芯片用于将NH+4转化为NH3,由聚二甲基硅氧烷制成;气体扩散芯片使NH3扩散进入待测溶液,由上下两片玻璃芯片及夹在中间的一层PDMS材质的气体透过膜制成;而检测芯片则通过多层结构将指示剂固定在其中。指示剂是通过将锌卟啉永久染色在离子交换树脂上制作而成的,在遇到NH3分子时会产生由绿到紫的变化,而当周围变成纯水环境时,又能够实现从紫到绿的逆向变化。以此耦合芯片为分析平台,搭建了一套小型化的光谱检测系统,以便携式光谱仪为分析器件,通过测量450 nm处的透射光谱强度变化,实现了NH+4的定量检测,同时研究了影响检测结果的三个参数:气体透过膜厚度,流速和指示剂用量。首先通过光谱强度随时间的变化,我们证明了指示过程的可逆性,因而解决了指示剂浪费的问题,时间响应也说明了指示过程的快速性;接着通过与对照实验的对比,说明检测过程具有很高的选择性,能够排除干扰物的影响,光谱变化仅仅是因为NH3的存在;通过改变气体扩散芯片中气体透过膜的厚度,得到了膜厚和光谱强度变化之间的关系,膜的厚度增加使得检测效果变差,但当膜厚小于10 μm时效果基本不变,考虑到机械强度,选择了10 μm作为膜的最佳厚度;随即研究了耦合芯片中流速对于光谱强度变化的影响,发现流速的增加会使得光谱强度变化减小,但流速小于5 μL·min-1时效果基本不变;最后又研究了指示剂用量对于光谱强度变化的影响,证明指示剂过多和过少都会影响检测效果,以5 mg为最佳。这套以耦合芯片为平台的光谱分析系统具有体积小,经济性高,响应迅速的特点,能够实现NH+4高选择性、可逆性的定量测量。 相似文献

成功研制了测量绝缘体二次电子发射系数的测量装置,该装置主要由栅控电子枪系统、真空系统和电子采集系统组成,测量装置产生的原电子流的能量范围为0.8~60 keV。采用单脉冲电子枪法,测量了原电子能量范围为0.8~45 keV的多晶MgO的二次电子发射系数。测量中,收集极(偏置盒)离材料表面设置为约35 mm,偏置电压设置为 45 V。测量得到:用磁控溅射法制备的MgO的二次电子发射系数最大值约为2.83,处于 2~26范围内,其对应的原电子能量约为980 eV。这表明该装置测量的绝缘体二次电子发射系数是可信的,但用磁控溅射法制备的MgO的二次电子发射系数较低,这可能是制备MgO时引入了过多的杂质在MgO二次电子发射体里面所引起的。 相似文献

Porphine has a great potential application in molecular electronic devices. In this work, based on the density functional theory(DFT) and combining with nonequilibrium Green's function(NEGF), we study the transport properties of the molecular devices constructed by the covalent homocoupling of porphine molecules conjunction with zigzag graphene nanoribbons electrodes. We find that different couple phases bring remarkable differences in the transport properties. Different coupling phases have different application prospects. We analyze and discuss the differences in transport properties through the molecular energy spectrum, electrostatic difference potential, local density of states(LDOS), and transmission pathway. The results are of great significance for the design of porphine molecular devices in the future. 相似文献

This paper presents a new approach to the analysis of data on powder flow from electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) using probability modelling and Bayesian statistics. The methodology is illustrated for powder flow in a hopper. The purpose, and special features, of this approach is that ‘high‐level’ statistical Bayesian modelling combined with a Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling algorithm allows direct estimation of control parameters of industrial processes in contrast to usually applied ‘low‐level’, pixel‐based methods of data analysis. This enables reliable recognition of key process features in a quantitative manner. The main difficulty when investigating hopper flow with ECT is due to the need to measure small differences in particle packing density. The MCMC protocol enables more robust identification of the responses of such complex systems. This paper demonstrates the feasibility of the approach for a simple case of particulate material flow during discharging of a hopper. It is concluded that these approaches can offer significant advantages for the analysis and control of some industrial powder and other multi‐phase flow processes. 相似文献
