高分子/单链高分子纳米粒子复合体系中的界面性质

高分子与纳米粒子复合是改善高分子材料性能的有效途径.近20年来关于高分子/纳米粒子复合物的研究引起了学术界广泛的兴趣.然而由于此类体系中的影响因素复杂,虽然学者们在相关材料性能的研究方面取得了重要进展,但是相关理论的发展却相对滞后,其中一个重要原因是实验上表征手段的缺失,导致对体系中纳米粒子与本体高分子链相互作用规律的认识(尤其是两者界面性质的认识)不够.本文总结和阐述了我们近几年利用分子动力学模拟技术研究高分子/单链高分子纳米粒子复合体系的主要结果,并围绕此类复合体系中的界面结构及动力学性质,讨论并总结了纳米粒子对本体高分子链的作用范围及影响规律,指出单链纳米粒子对熔体链的作用范围与纳米粒子的自身尺寸相当,而与熔体高分子链的分子量没有直接的关系.该结论将为纳米复合体系高分子理论的发展提供重要参考.     

Scanning Ion Conductance Microscopic Study for Cellular Uptake of Cationic Conjugated Polymer Nanoparticles

Positively charged conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNs) are emerging biomaterials exhibiting high levels of cellular entry. High rate of cellular entry efficiency is believed that the amphiphilic CPNs interact efficiently with the negatively charged hydrophobic cellular membranes. For the first time, the cell surface morphological changes of human cervical cancer cells treated with CPNs using a scanning probe microscopy technique, scanning ion conductance microscopy (SICM) are imaged. After 1 h of CPN incubation, distinct changes are observed in cell surface morphology such as interconnected protrusions and pits with sub‐micrometer sizes, which are not observed from cells treated with positively charged polyethyleneimine (PEI) under the same treatment conditions. The change on cell surface morphology is quantified by surface roughness ratio, which is increased as CPN concentration increases, while the ratio first increases and then decreases as the incubation time increases. These results suggest that cells respond actively toward CPN with both positive charges on the side chain and the hydrophobicity from rigid aromatic backbone, which leads to subsequent endocytosis. In conclusion, it is demonstrated that SICM is a suitable imaging technique to reveal the dynamic alternations on the cell surface morphology at the early stage of nanoparticles endocytosis with high resolution.

镧系金属配位聚合物因其独特的组成、结构和性质被广泛应用于荧光识别检测性质研究,但其功能导向构筑依然具有挑战性。本文基于双功能基团配体构筑策略构筑了一例Tb~(3+)配位聚合物[Tb(TZI)(DMF)_2(H_2O)]·(H_2O)(1)((H_3TZI=5-(1-氢-5-四唑基)间苯二甲酸,DMF=N,N-二甲基甲酰胺)),在对其进行详细结构表征的基础上研究了其金属离子识别检测性质。结果表明,基于羧酸和四唑基团与Tb~(3+)离子配位能力的不同,在确保Tb~(3+)配位聚合物成功构筑的同时可将四唑作为识别位点引入配位聚合物框架,使得配合物1可展现出基于金属离子与四唑功能位点配位导致的荧光增强,可实现对Zn~(2+)和Na~+离子的识别检测。本文所报道的结果可为镧系金属配位聚合物的荧光识别检测性质导向构筑提供有价值的参考。     

Electrospun Nanofiber Membranes from 1,8-Naphthimide-Based Polymer/Poly(vinyl alcohol) for pH Fluorescence Sensing

Accurately and sensitively sensing and monitoring the pH in the environment is a key fundamental issue for human health. Nanomaterial and nanotechnology combined with fluorescent materials can be emerged as excellent possible methods to develop high-performance sensing membranes and help monitor pH. Herein, a series of fluorescent nanofiber membranes (NFMs) containing poly-1,8-naphthimide derivative-3-[dimethyl-[2-(2-methylprop-2-enoyloxy)ethyl]azaniumyl]propane-1-sulfonate (PNI-SBMA) are fabricated by electrospinning the solution of PNI-SBMA blended with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA). The surfactant-like functionalities in side chains of PNI-SBMA endow the NFMs with outstanding hydrophilicity, and the naphthimide derivatives are sensitive to pH by photoinduced electron transfer effect, which contribute to highly efficient pH fluorescence sensing applications of NFMs. Specifically, the PNI-SBMA/PVA NFM with a ratio of 1:9 (NFM2) shows high sensitivity and good cyclability to pH. This work demonstrates an effective strategy to realize a fluorescent sensor NFM that has a fast and sensitive response to pH, which will benefit its application of pH sensor monitoring in the water treatment process.     

A Dual pH/O2 Sensing Film Based on Functionalized Electrospun Nanofibers for Real-Time Monitoring of Cellular Metabolism

Real-time monitoring of dissolved oxygen (DO) and pH is of great significance for understanding cellular metabolism. Herein, a dual optical pH/O₂ sensing membrane was prepared by the electrospinning method. Cellulose acetate (CA) and poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) nanofiber membrane blended with platinum (II)-5,10,15,20-tetrakis-(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorophenyl)-porphyrin (PtTFPP) was used as the DO sensing matrix, upon which electrospun nanofiber membrane of chitosan (CS) coupled with fluorescein 5-isothiocyanate (FITC) was used as the pH sensing matrix. The electrospun sensing film prepared from biocompatible biomaterials presented good response to a wide range of DO concentrations and physiological pH. We used it to monitor the exracellular acidification and oxygen consumption levels of cells and bacteria. This sensing film can provide a luminescence signal change as the DO and pH change in the growth microenvironment. Due to its advantages of good biocompatibility and high stability, we believe that the dual functional film has a high value in the field of biotechnology research.     

One‐Dimensional Carbon Nanotube/SnO2/Noble Metal Nanoparticle Hybrid Nanostructure: Synthesis,Characterization, and Electrochemical Sensing

Herein we report a facile and efficient method for self‐assembling noble‐metal nanoparticles (NPs) to the surface of SnO₂‐coated carbon nanotubes (CNT@SnO₂) to construct CNT@SnO₂/noble metal NP hybrids. By using SnCl₄ as the precursor of the SnO₂ shell on the surface of CNTs, the hydrolysis speed of SnCl₄ was slowed down in ethanol containing a trace amount of urea and water. The coaxial nanostructure of CNT@SnO₂ was confirmed by using X‐ray powder diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It was found that the coating layer of SnO₂ was homogeneous with the mean thickness of 8 nm. The CNT@SnO₂/noble‐metal NP hybrids were obtained by mixing noble‐metal NPs with as‐prepared CNT@SnO₂ coaxial nanocables by means of a self‐assembly strategy. With the amino group terminated, the CNT@SnO₂ coaxial nanocable can readily adsorb the as‐prepared noble‐metal NPs (Au, Ag, Au? Pt, and Au? Pd NPs). The presence of an amino group at the surface of SnO₂ was proved by use of X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). In addition, H₂O₂ sensing by amperometric methods could serve as detection models for investigating the electrocatalytic ability of as‐prepared hybrid materials. It was found that wide linear ranges and low detection limits were obtained by using the enzyme‐free CNT@SnO₂@Au? Pt modified electrode, which indicated the potential utilizations of the hybrid based on CNT@SnO₂ for electrochemical sensing.     

Boron Doped Carbon Dots with Unusually High Photoluminescence Quantum Yield for Ratiometric Intracellular pH Sensing

Herein we report that boron doping in carbon dots results in increased photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield, which could be used for ratiometric intracellular pH sensing in cancer cell lines. Using a mixture of citric acid monohydrate, thiourea, and boric acid, microwave-assisted synthesis of boron doped blue emitting carbon dots (B-Cdots) with an average size of 3.5±1.0 nm was achieved. For B-Cdots, the maximum quantum yield (QY) was observed to be 25.8 % (11.1 % (w/w) H₃BO₃ input concentration), whereas, the same was calculated to be 16.9 % and 11.4 % for Cdots (synthesized from citric acid monohydrate and thiourea only) and P-Cdots (phosphorus doped carbon dots; synthesized using citric acid monohydrate, thiourea and phosphoric acid) (11.1 % (w/w) H₃PO₄ input concentration), respectively. The observed luminescence efficiencies as obtained from steady state and time-resolved photoluminescence measurements suggest an alternative emission mechanism due to boron/phosphorus doping in carbon dots. We furthermore demonstrated facile composite formation using B-Cdots and another carbon dots with orange emission in presence of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), resulting in white light emission (0.31, 0.32; λ_ex 380 nm). The white light emitting composite enabled ratiometric pH sensing in the aqueous medium and showed favorable uptake properties by cancerous cells for intracellular pH sensing as well.

Preparation and release profiles of pH/temperature-responsive carboxymethyl chitosan/P(2-(dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate) semi-IPN amphoteric hydrogel

Thermo- and pH-responsive semi-IPN polyampholyte hydrogels were prepared by using carboxymethyl chitosan and P(2-(dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate) with N N'-Methylenebisacrylamide (BIS) as crosslinking agent. It was found that the semi-IPN hydrogel shrunk most at the isoelectric point (IEP) and swelled when pH deviated from the IEP. Its swelling ratio dramatically decreased between 30 and 50 °C at pH 6.8 buffer solution. It also showed good reversibility. The UV results showed that when the pH values of drug release medium were 3.7, 6.8, and 9 at 25 °C, the cumulative release rates reached 83.1, 51.5, and 72.2%, respectively. The release rate of coenzyme A (CoA) was higher at 50 °C than 37 and 25 °C at pH 6.8 solution. The release rate decreased with increasing the content of carboxymethyl chitosan at 25 °C in pH 6.8 solution. The results showed that semi-IPN hydrogel seems to be of great promise in pH/temperature drug delivery systems.
