Quick Microwave Assisted Synthesis and <Emphasis Type="Italic">In Vitro</Emphasis> Imaging Application of Oxygen Doped Fluorescent Carbon Dots

In this paper, a fast and simplest one-pot tactic was used to synthesis fluorescent oxygen doped carbon dots from Tween-20 (TTO-CDs) is reported. The TTO-CDs were microwavically synthesized by using Tween-20 as both the carbon precursor and the oxygen dopant as well. The surface morphology, crystalline and/or amorphous nature, composition and optical assets of synthesized TTO-CDs were studied by means of existing techniques. From the results, it was confirmed that the as-synthesized TTO-CDs are amorphous in nature, monodispersed, sphere-shaped and the typical particle size range is 5?±?1.5 nm. The synthesized TTO-CDs emits strong blue fluorescence at 390 nm under excitation of 335 nm. Most interestingly, the excitation dependent emission property of synthesized TTO-CDs was exposed from fluorescence results. The synthesized TTO-CDs have quantum yield of about 14% against quinine sulfate as reference standard. The biotoxicity of synthesized TTO-CDs on HeLa cells was assessed through cytotoxicity assay. These results implied that the fluorescent TTO-CDs showed less biotoxicity, and further which was efficaciously applied as a multicolor staining and bioimaging probe for the confocal imaging of HeLa cells.

Green Synthetic Approach for Synthesis of Fluorescent Carbon Dots for Lisinopril Drug Delivery System and their Confirmations in the Cells

In this work, highly luminescent carbon dots (CDs) were synthesized by the hydrothermal method at 170 °C for 12 h using pasteurized milk as a carbon source. The prepared CDs exhibited bright blue fluorescence under UV light illumination at 365 nm. The CDs show fluorescence life time of ~4.89 ns at excitation wavelength of 370 nm. The effect of different solvents on the fluorescence property of CDs was also investigated. The lisinopril (Lis)-loaded CDs were fabricated by self-assembly of lisinopril on the surfaces of CDs, which were characterized by UV-visible and FT-IR spectroscopic techniques. The controlled release of lisinopril from the Lis-CDs was realized at pH values of 5.2, 6.2 and 7.4, respectively. The results of the cytotoxicity and confocal laser scanning microscopic images indicate that the Lis-CDs were successfully uptaken by HeLa cells without apparent cytotoxicity. The synthesized CDs show great potential as drug vehicles with good biocompatibility, sustained release of lisinopril from CDs, indicating that the CDs can act as a promising drug delivery system for therapeutic delivery and/or bioimaging applications.

Comparison of Dry,Wet, and Microwave Ashing Methods for the Determination of Al,Zn, and Fe in Yogurt Samples by Atomic Absorption Spectrometry

Abstract

Digestion methods such as dry and wet ashing and microwave oven were examined at various conditions to determine a rapid, reliable, and simple digestion procedure for yogurt. Digestion by microwave oven was found to be an excellent method in comparison with dry and wet ashing methods when only Al and Zn in yogurt samples were determined. Iron in this matrix is not completely digested by the microwave oven method at the examined conditions. From the obtained results, yogurt can also be a good source of essential nutrients such as minerals in human diet, especially zinc. Aluminum concentrations in yogurt samples fermented in Al containers were found to be significantly higher than in plastic containers. Al concentrations of yogurt taken from the bottom of the container were found to be higher than from the center and top of Al containers. The determinations of metals were carried out via an atomic absorption spectrophotometer using calibration curve and standard additions methods. Aluminum concentrations in yogurt samples produced in big production centers were found to be significantly higher than the other yogurt samples produced in‐house when plastic containers were used.     

Fluorophotometric Determination of Hydrogen Peroxide with Fluorescin in the Presence of Cobalt (II) and Reaction Against Other Reactive Oxygen Species

A fluorophotometric method for the determination of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) using fluorescin was developed. This method was based on the oxidative reaction of fluorescin, a colorless, non-fluorescent lactoid fluorescein, by H₂O₂ to give highly fluorescein fluorescence emission. In the determination of H₂O₂, the calibration curve exhibited linearity over the H₂O₂ concentration range of 1.5–310 ng mL⁻¹ at an emission wavelength of 525 nm with an excitation of 500 nm and with relative standard deviations (n = 6) of 2.51%, 2.48%, and 1.31% for 3.1 ng mL⁻¹, 30.8 ng mL⁻¹, and for 308 ng mL⁻¹ of H₂O₂, respectively. The detection limit for H₂O₂ was 1.9 ng mL⁻¹ six blank determinations was performed (ρ = 6). This proposed method was applied to detection of other reactive oxygen species and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) such as singlet oxygen (¹O₂), hydroxyl radical (^•OH), peroxynitrite (ONOO⁻) etc., and it was possible to detect them with a high sensitivity. In addition, this proposed method was applied to the recovery tests of H₂O₂ in calf serum, human saliva, rain water, and wheat noodles; the results were satisfactory.     

Facile and Scalable Synthesis of Si@void@C Embedded in Interconnected 3D Porous Carbon Architecture for High Performance Lithium-Ion Batteries

Si-based materials possess huge potential as an excellent anode material for Li-ion batteries. However, how to realize scalable synthesis of Si-based anode with a long cycling life and high-performance is still a critical challenge. Here a water-in-oil microemulsion process followed by UV illumination, calcination, and hydrothermal method to produce yolk-shell Si@void@C embedded in interconnected 3D porous carbon network architecture using silicon nanoparticles is reported. As a result, the sample Si@void@C/C-2 electrode has achieved a reversible capacity of 1160 mA h g⁻¹ at 0.2 A g⁻¹ after 300 cycles and a stable long cycling life of 480 mA h g⁻¹ at 1 A g⁻¹ after 1000 cycles. A full battery with the synthesized anode shows a capacity of 128 mA h g⁻¹ at 0.2 A g⁻¹ as well as good cycling stability after 1100th cycles. Such excellent electrochemical performance is ascribed to its unique structure, the yolk-shell void space, highly robust carbon shells and interconnected porous carbon nets that can improve the conductivity of the electrode, buffer the volume expansion, and also suppress Si nanoparticles stress variation. This water-in oil system makes it possible for mass production of environmentally friendly synthesis of core–shell structure.

Selective Spectrofluorimetric Method with Enhanced Sensitivity for Determination of Silodosine in Dosage Form and Human Plasma. Application to Stability Studies and Content Uniformity Testing

A novel, sensitive and selective spectrofluorimetric method has been developed and validated for determination of silodosine (SLD) in its dosage form and human plasma. The method is based on nucleophilic substitution reaction of SLD with 5-(dimethylamino) naphthalene-1-sulfonyl chloride (dansyl chloride) in presence of 5.0 × 10^?4 M sodium carbonate (pH 10.50) to yield a highly fluorescent derivative that was measured at 435 nm after excitation at 347 nm. The different experimental parameters affecting the development and stability of the reaction product were carefully studied and optimized. The fluorescence-concentration plot was rectilinear over the range 30.0–200.0 ng ml^?1, with a correlation coefficient of 0.9979. The limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) were found to be 5.44 and 16.47 ng ml^?1, respectively. The proposed method was validated according to ICH guidelines, and successfully applied to the assay of commercial capsules as well as content uniformity testing. The high sensitivity of the proposed method allowed its successful application to the analysis of SLD in spiked human plasma with % recovery of 92.88 ± 1.05–100.73 ± 0.75%, (n = 6). The application of the proposed method was further extended to stability studies of SLD after exposure to different forced degradation conditions, such as acidic, alkaline and oxidative conditions, according to ICH guidelines, where this work describe the first attempt for selective spectrofluorimetric determination of silodosine in plasma and in the presence of its oxidative degradation.
