A novel and convenient preparation of antibacterial polyacrylonitrile nanofibers via post-modification using nitrile click chemistry and electrospinning

An efficient, novel and convenient method for the synthesis of modified polyacrylonitrile (PAN) with antibacterial property is reported. The modification of PAN was prepared by a nitrile click chemistry reaction with sodium azide (NaN₃) and silver nitrate (AgNO₃) as catalyst to yield antibacterial polymeric materials with 5-vinyltetrazole units. The results showed that 5-vinyltetrazole units had coordinated with silver ion (Ag⁺). Through the electrostatic spinning technology, the post-modification PAN nanofibers (PAN–Ag⁺ nanofibers) were prepared and the fibers were tested for their antimicrobial properties by the bacterial infection experiment. Afterwards, the antibacterial and stable performance of different proportions of silver ions in PAN nanofibers has been compared. The PAN–Ag⁺ nanofibers are characterized for mechanical and thermomechanical properties, structural analysis, appearance characteristics, as well as the antibacterial properties. And the nanofibers exhibit marvelous chemical stability according to the thermogravimetric analysis. When at 800 °C, the PAN decomposed about 60%, while the decomposition of the PAN–Ag⁺s was 40%. Based on the bacterial infection experiment, PAN–Ag⁺ nanofibers’ antibacterial properties were stronger with the increase of silver ions, such as the number of bacteria clone was smaller and the bacteriostatic ring was larger. Hence, with combination of silver ions, the final polymers show strong antimicrobial properties.

Preparation and characterization of silver-modified poly(vinyl alcohol)/polyethyleneimine hybrids as a chemical and biological protective material

Nanohybrid membranes based on the silver (Ag) and a poly(vinyl alcohol)/polyethyleneimine (PVA/PEI) blend were prepared by an in-situ reduction method, in which the silver nitrate, PVA and PEI acted as precursor, linker and polyamine reductant, respectively. The objective of the study was to develop and evaluate permeable membranes (PVA/PEI) impregnated with Ag nanoparticulates that can protect against simulants of chemical and biological warfare agents. The physical properties of the PVA/PEI-Ag hybrids were examined using SEM, TEM, TGA, and UV-vis spectroscopy, the results indicated that the Ag was incorporated in the PVA/PEI matrix after impregnation. The Ag content and surface morphology of the PVA/PEI-Ag hybrids depended on the initial concentration of AgNO₃. The chemical barrier properties against 2-chloroethyl-ethyl sulfide (CEES) were investigated based on static-diffusion method with gas chromatograph (GC). The antibacterial effects of the PVA/PEI-Ag hybrids were assessed by the zone of inhibition, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC), and plate-counting methods. The results of this study showed that PVA/PEI-Ag hybrids that act against simulants of chemical and biological weapons while retaining their ability to transmit moisture vapor could be obtained.     

One Step Fabrication and Application of Antibacterial Electrospun Zein/Cinnamon Oil Membrane Wound Dressing via In situ Electrospinning Process

Antibacterial wound dressing can benefit the wound healing by preventing bacterial infection, especially for the electrospun ones due to their porous structures and easily loading antibacterial drugs. However, it is challenging to apply the antibacterial electrospun wound dressing to covering the wound conveniently and safely. Here, we presented one step fabrication and application of antibacterial electrospun zein/cinnamon oil wound dressing via a handheld electrospinning setup. The prepared zein/cinnamon oil wound dressing showed gas permeability of (76.1±5.45) mm/s, hydrophilicity with zero body fluid contact angle, swelling stability after 24 h as well as antibacterial zones over 5 cm against both E. coli and S. aureus bacteria. Moreover, in situ electrospinning process can deposit the electrospun zein/cinnamon oil fibers directly onto the wound, meantime forming a wound dressing. The mice cut-wound model experiment demonstrated that the one step in situ fabrication and application of zein/cinnamon oil wound dressing could nearly heal the wound within 11 d.

近年来,二维(2D)金属-有机框架(MOF)纳米复合材料被广泛的应用于生物医学领域,尤其是在抗菌方面。在此,我们通过光照诱导还银离子成功在二维MOF纳米片上生长银纳米粒子,得到了一种银纳米粒子(Ag NPs)修饰的二维Zr-Fc-MOF (MOF-Ag)纳米片,并将其用于光热增强Ag⁺释放抗菌治疗。通过水热法和超声处理合成MOF纳米片,然后通过原位光辐照诱导还原在MOF纳米片上生长Ag NPs。系列表征结果表明Ag NPs成功负载到MOF纳米片上。聚乙烯吡咯烷酮(PVP)的修饰不仅可以增强MOF-Ag在溶液中的稳定性,还可以增强它的生物相容性。在近红外激光(NIR)照射下,MOF纳米片可以在短时间升温,而温度的升高可以加速Ag NPs在溶液中氧化为银离子。通过细菌生长曲线、菌落相对数和细菌形态变化等实验表明PVP@MOF-Ag纳米片具有优异的广谱杀菌性能。此外,2D MOF纳米片良好的光热性能不仅可以增强Ag⁺的释放,还可以增强细胞膜的通透性,随后进入细菌中的Ag⁺可以诱导内源性活性氧的产生,从而引发细菌的氧化应激,实现高效抗菌。基于良好的体外抗菌性能,进一步将PVP@MOF-Ag纳米片用于小鼠伤口愈合,在此期间PVP@MOF-Ag纳米片表现出良好的治疗效果和生物安全性。我们的研究结果表明,PVP@MOF-Ag纳米片可以作为光热增强Ag⁺释放抗菌治疗和伤口愈合的有效平台。

Silver Nanoparticle-Anchored Human Hair Kerateine/PEO/PVA Nanofibers for Antibacterial Application and Cell Proliferation

The main core of wound treatment is cell growth and anti-infection. To accelerate the proliferation of fibroblasts in the wound and prevent wound infections, various strategies have been tried. It remains a challenge to obtain good cell proliferation and antibacterial effects. Here, human hair kerateine (HHK)/poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO)/poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) nanofibers were prepared using cysteine-rich HHK, and then, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were in situ anchored in the sulfur-containing amino acid residues of HHK. After the ultrasonic degradation test, HHK/PEO/PVA nanofibrous mats treated with 0.005-M silver nitrate were selected due to their relatively complete structures. It was observed by TEM-EDS that the sulfur-containing amino acids in HHK were the main anchor points of AgNPs. The results of FTIR, XRD and the thermal analysis suggested that the hydrogen bonds between PEO and PVA were broken by HHK and, further, by AgNPs. AgNPs could act as a catalyst to promote the thermal degradation reaction of PVA, PEO and HHK, which was beneficial for silver recycling and medical waste treatment. The antibacterial properties of AgNP-HHK/PEO/PVA nanofibers were examined by the disk diffusion method, and it was observed that they had potential antibacterial capability against Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria and fungi. In addition, HHK in the nanofibrous mats significantly improved the cell proliferation of NIH3T3 cells. These results illustrated that the AgNP-HHK/PEO/PVA nanofibrous mats exhibited excellent antibacterial activity and the ability to promote the proliferation of fibroblasts, reaching our target applications.

聚(ε-己内酯)-多肽共聚物胶束增强抗生素的抗菌活性

Bacterial infection is a major threat to human health, and can cause several diseases including gastroenteritis, influenza, tetanus, and tuberculosis. As conventional antibiotic treatment may cause various undesirable effects such as stomach disorder and bacterial resistance, it is necessary to improve the antibacterial efficiency of antibiotics. Here, we synthesized a peptide-based copolymer, poly(ε-caprolactone)-block-poly(glutamic acid)-block-poly(lysine-stat-phenylalanine)[PCL₃₄-b-PGA₃₀-b-P(Lys₁₆-stat-Phe₁₂)] by ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of ε-caprolactone and amino acid N-carboxyanhydride (NCA). Successful synthesis of the copolymer was verified by proton nuclear magnetic resonance and size exclusion chromatography. This copolymer can self-assemble into negatively charged micelles (-26.7 mV) under alkaline conditions by solvent switch method. The micelle structure was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering, and revealed to have a diameter of ~42 nm. Antibiotics were loaded into micelles during the self-assembly process, and cell viability assay was conducted to evaluate its cytotoxicity with and without tobramycin. No obvious cytotoxicity was observed for both micelles when the concentration was lower than 300 μg·mL^-1. The antibiotic-loaded micelles demonstrated very low minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) against both Gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli) (7.8 μg·mL^-1) and Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) (18.2 μg·mL^-1), while the MICs of free tobramycin were 3.9 and 1.0 μg·mL^-1, respectively. The drug-loading content and efficiency of the micelles were 5.2% and 24.3%, respectively. Therefore, the MICs of the loaded tobramycin against E. coli and S. aureus were 0.4 and 0.9 μg·mL^-1, respectively, suggesting that the micelle could enhance the antibacterial activity of antibiotics. Tobramycin-loaded micelles demonstrated a sustained release characteristic, with 85% of the antibiotics released after 8 h. In bacteria-induced acidic microenvironment, the coil conformation of PGA blocks transforms and PGA blocks shrink toward the micelle core. Concomitantly, the carboxyl side chains are protonated in an acidic environment, increasing the hydrophobicity of this micelle. Antibiotics will be captured when reaching the outer core to slow down the releasing process. Furthermore, the poly(lysine-stat-phenylalanine) [P(Lys-stat-Phe)] coronas with broad spectrum intrinsic antibacterial activity can penetrate the bacterial cell membrane, leading to leakage of the cellular contents of the bacteria and ultimately their death. Due to the sustained release property of micelle and the intrinsic activity of the antibacterial peptide segments, this micelle can greatly enhance the antibacterial activity of antibiotics. Overall, this antibiotic-loaded micelle provides a novel approach for significantly reducing the antibiotics dosage and avoiding the associated health risks.     

Fracture toughness and surface morphology of micro/nano sized fibrils-modified epoxy resin

Two kinds of micro/nano sized fibrils based on cellulose (MFC) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) were used as reinforcer for epoxy resin (EP) with different contents in the range from 0 to 0.3 wt %.

The analysis of mechanical properties showed that by both adding MFC and PVA to EP the fracture toughness was increased. The SEM results showed that micro/nano sized fibers dispersed throughout epoxy resin, prevented and changed the path of crack growth.

Preparation of electrospun chitosan/poly(vinyl alcohol) membranes

Electrospinning of chitosan from its solutions in 2% aqueous acetic acid was studied by adding poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) as a “guest” polymer. Properties of the chitosan/PVA solutions including viscosity, conductivity, and surface tension were measured, and effects of the polymer concentration, chitosan/PVA mass ratio and processing parameters (applied voltage, flow rate, capillary-to-collector distance) on the electrospinnability of chitosan/PVA were investigated. Analyses of scanning electron micrographs and transmission electron micrographs suggested that the chitosan/PVA ultrafine fibers were often obtained along with beads, and chitosan was located in the elctrospun fibers as well as in the beads. Uniform chitosan/PVA fibers with an average diameter of 99 ± 21 nm could be prepared from a 7% chitosan/PVA solution in 40:60 mass ratio. Results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction demonstrated that there were possible hydrogen bonds between chitosan and PVA molecules, which could weaken the strong interaction in chitosan itself and facilitate chitosan/PVA electrospinnability. The electrospun chitosan/PVA membranes showed higher water uptake and would have potential applications in wound dressings.     

Electrospinning and characterization of medium-molecular-weight poly(vinyl alcohol)/high-molecular-weight poly(vinyl alcohol)/montmorillonite nanofibers

Submicron fibers of medium-molecular-weight poly(vinyl alcohol) (MMW-PVA), high-molecular-weight poly(vinyl alcohol) (HMW-PVA), and montmorillonite clay (MMT) in aqueous solutions were prepared by electrospinning technique. The effect of HMW-PVA and MMT on the morphology and mechanical properties of the MMW-PVA/HMW-PVA/MMT nanofibers were investigated for the first time. Scanning electron microscopy, viscometer, tensile strength testing machine, thermal gravimetric analyzer (TGA), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were utilized to characterize the PVA/MMT nanofibers morphology and properties. The MMW-PVA/HMW-PVA ratios and MMT concentration played important roles in nanofiber's properties. TEM data demonstrated that exfoliated MMT layers were well distributed within nanofibers. It was also found that the mechanical property and thermal stability were increased with HMW-PVA and MMT contents.
