In this article, capillary columns constituted by lauryl methacrylate monoliths with embedded silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were developed and tested. Two incorporation approaches of AgNPs in monoliths were explored. The AgNPs were either photogenerated in situ during polymerization of the monolith by UV irradiation, or incorporated to the polymerization mixture (ex situ). The influence of the AgNP concentration on the morphological and chromatographic properties of the polymer matrix was investigated, and both the in situ and ex situ approaches were comparatively discussed. The morphology of the monoliths was characterized by electron microscopic techniques, and their electrochromatographic performance was also evaluated with test mixtures of neutral compounds (sterols, fatty acid methyl esters, tocopherols, and polyaromatic hydrocarbons).  相似文献

Environmentally sensitive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) nanofibrous scaffolds loaded with a hydrophilic drug were fabricated via an electrospinning process. First, thermally crosslinkable poly(NIPAAm-co-N-methylolacrylamide) (PNN) was synthesized by redox polymerization below the phase transition temperature of PNIPAAm. The phase transition temperature of the PNN copolymer could be altered from 34 to 40 °C by changing the ratio of N-methylolacrylamide (NMA) to NIPAAm. Subsequently, PNN/chitosan nanofibers were electrospun using ethanol/acetic acid/water as a cosolvent. The PNN/chitosan nanofibers were sensitive to both pH and temperature. The fibrous structure of the soaked PNN/chitosan nanofibers was successfully preserved by the crosslinking of NMA. Furthermore, the chitosan-based nanoparticles (NPs) were introduced into the PNN nanofibers (PNN/NPs) to achieve prolonged drug release. The nanoparticles were observed in the PNN nanofibers by transmission electron microscopy. All of the scaffolds examined had high tensile strengths (1.45 MPa or above) and exhibited no significant cytotoxicity toward human fetal skin fibroblasts. Finally, doxycycline hyclate was used as a model drug. The results illustrated that PNN/NPs nanofibrous scaffolds exhibited continuous drug release behavior for up to 1 week, depending on the pH and temperature.  相似文献

Pharmacokinetics of nanoparticles loaded with the antituberculosis drug gatifloxacine, as a new delivery system, was studied. In vivo experiments performed in laboratory animals showed that the dosage form of gatifloxacine incorporated into nanoparticles of poly(DL-lactic-co-glycolic acid) has a different pharmacological pattern as compared with the dosage form manufactured in industry. An increase in half-life (T 1/2) and in mean residence time (MRT) was observed for gatifloxacine nanoparticles in blood plasma. The area under the “concentration versus time” pharmacological curve (AUC(0→36) was shown to increase mostly owing to the terminal part of the curve.  相似文献

A novel method combining wet chemistry for synthesis of an Fe core, 532 nm laser irradiation of Fe nanoparticles and Au powder in liquid medium for deposition of an Au shell, and sequential magnetic extraction/acid washing for purification has been developed to fabricate oxidation-resistant Fe@Au magnetic core-shell nanoparticles. The nanoparticles have been extensively characterized at various stages during and up to several months after completion of the synthesis by a suite of electron microscopy techniques (HRTEM, HAADF STEM, EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-vis spectroscopy, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy, and magnetometry. The surface plasmon resonance of the Fe@Au nanoparticles is red shifted and much broadened as compared with that of pure colloidal nano-gold, which is explained to be predominantly a shell-thickness effect. The Au shell consists of partially fused approximately 3-nm-diameter fcc Au nanoparticles (lattice interplanar distance, d = 2.36 A). The 18-nm-diameter magnetic core is bcc Fe single domain (d = 2.03 A). The nanoparticles are superparamagnetic at room temperature (300 K) with a blocking temperature, T(b), of approximately 170 K. After 4 months of shelf storage in normal laboratory conditions, their mass magnetization per Fe content was measured to be 210 emu/g, approximately 96% of the Fe bulk value.  相似文献

Magnetite nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized in liquid polyols at elevated temperature. Polyol solvent plays a crucial role in determining the morphology and colloidal stability of the resulting particles. The structure and morphology of the nanoparticles were studied using XRD, TEM, SAED, TGA and FTIR. The magnetic properties of the samples were measured using physical properties measurement system (PPMS) of Quantum Design. The results show that as-prepared magnetite nanoparticles are monodisperse, highly crystalline and superparamagnetic at room temperature. The nanoparticles can be easily dispersed in aqueous media and other polar solvents due to coated by a layer of hydrophilic polyol ligands in situ. This approach provides a facile route to prepare magnetite nanoparticles.  相似文献

Maghemite nanoparticles (MNPs) were synthesized by chemical coprecipitation and coated with meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (HOOC-CH(SH)-CH(SH)-COOH or DMSA). The morphology and properties of the nanoparticles were characterized by TEM, XRD, Zeta Potential Analyzer and VSM. Subsequentially, the anti-human cardiac troponin I (cTnI) immunomagnetic nanoparticles (IMNPs) were prepared by grafting anti-human cTnI antibodies on the surface of DMSA-coated MNPs using the linker of EDC (1-ethyl-3-[3-dimethylaminopropyl] carbodiimide hydrochloride). The conjugation amount of the antibodies and the activity of IMNPs was evaluated by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Western blotting. The results show that the physical and chemical adsorption occurred at the same time, but the former was unstable and apt to desorb, and the maximum conjugation amount of antibody was about 96 μg on the 0.1 mg MNPs by covalent bond. The stability was also investigated, and after 300 days the antibodies on the IMNPs remained the biological activity.  相似文献

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (NPs) hold promise for a variety of biomedical applications due to their properties of visualization using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), heating with radio frequency (rf), and movement in an external magnetic field. In this study, the cellular loading (uptake) mechanism of dextran- and surfactant-coated iron oxide NPs by malignant prostate tumor cells (LNCaP-Pro5) has been studied, and the feasibility of traditional rf treatment and a new laser heating method was evaluated. The kinetics of cell loading was quantified using magnetophoresis and a colorimetric assay. The results showed that loading of surfactant-coated iron oxide NPs with LNCaP-Pro5 was saturable with time (at 24 h) and extracellular concentration (11 pg Fe/cell at 0.5 mg Fe/mL), indicating that the particles are taken up by an "adsorptive endocytosis" pathway. Dextran-coated NPs, however, were taken up less efficiently (1 pg Fe/cell at 0.5 mg Fe/mL). Loading did not saturate with concentration suggesting uptake by fluid-phase endocytosis. Magnetophoresis suggests that NP-loaded cells can be held using external magnetic fields in microcirculatory flow velocities in vivo or in an appropriately designed extracorporeal circuit. Loaded cells were heated using traditional rf (260A, 357 kHz) and a new laser method (532 nm, 7 ns pulse duration, 0.03 J/pulse, 20 pulse/s). Iron oxide in water was found to absorb sufficiently strongly at 532 nm such that heating of individual NPs and thus loaded cells (1 pg Fe/cell) was effective (<10% cell survival) after 30 s of laser exposure. Radio frequency treatment required higher loading (>10 pg Fe/cell) and longer duration (30 min) when compared to laser to accomplish cell destruction (50% viability at 10 pg Fe/cell). Scaling calculations show that the pulsed laser method can lead to single-cell (loaded with NPs) treatments (200 degrees C temperature change at the surface of an individual NP) unlike traditional rf heating methods which can be used only for bulk tissue level treatments. In a mixture of normal and NP-loaded malignant tumor cells, the malignant cells were selectively destroyed after laser exposure leaving the unloaded normal cells intact. These studies hold promise for applications in cell purification and sorting and extracorporeal blood treatments in vitro.  相似文献

This report describes the preparation and characterization of new magnetic fluorescent nanoparticles and our success in using them to label living cells. The bifunctional nanoparticles possess a magnetic oxide core composed of a dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) ligand at the surface and a covalently attached fluorescent dye. The nanoparticles exhibited a high affinity for cells, which was demonstrated by fluorescence microscopy and magnetophoresis. Fluorescence microscopy was used to monitor the localization patterns of magnetic nanoparticles associated with cells. We observed two types of magnetic labeling: adsorption of the nanoparticles on the cell membrane (membranous fluorescence) and internalization of the nanoparticles inside the cell (intracellular vesicular fluorescence). After internalization, nanoparticles were confined inside endosomes, which are submicrometric vesicles of the endocytotic pathway. We demonstrated that endosome movement could be piloted inside the cell by external magnetic fields such that small fluorescent chains of magnetic endosomes were formed in the cell cytoplasm in the direction of the applied magnetic field. Finally, by measuring the critical cellular magnetic load (quantitated by magnetophoresis), we have demonstrated the potential of this new magneto-fluorescent nanoagent for medical use.  相似文献

We investigate by scattering techniques the structure of water-based soft composite materials comprising a crystal made of Pluronic block-copolymer micelles arranged in a face-centered cubic lattice and a small amount (at most 2% by volume) of silica nanoparticles, of size comparable to that of the micelles. The copolymer is thermosensitive: it is hydrophilic and fully dissolved in water at low temperature (T ~ 0 °C), and self-assembles into micelles at room temperature, where the block-copolymer is amphiphilic. We use contrast matching small-angle neuron scattering experiments to independently probe the structure of the nanoparticles and that of the polymer. We find that the nanoparticles do not perturb the crystalline order. In addition, a structure peak is measured for the silica nanoparticles dispersed in the polycrystalline samples. This implies that the samples are spatially heterogeneous and comprise, without macroscopic phase separation, silica-poor and silica-rich regions. We show that the nanoparticle concentration in the silica-rich regions is about 10-fold the average concentration. These regions are grain boundaries between crystallites, where nanoparticles concentrate, as shown by static light scattering and by light microscopy imaging of the samples. We show that the temperature rate at which the sample is prepared strongly influence the segregation of the nanoparticles in the grain-boundaries.  相似文献

This paper describes a novel microfluidic immunoassay utilizing binding of superparamagnetic nanoparticles to beads and deflection of these beads in a magnetic field as the signal for measuring the presence of analyte. The superparamagnetic 50 nm nanoparticles and fluorescent 1 microm polystyrene beads are immobilized with specific antibodies. When target analytes react with the polystyrene beads and superparamagnetic nanoparticles simultaneously, the superparamagnetic nanoparticles can be attached onto the microbeads by the antigen-antibody complex. In the poly(dimethylsiloxane)(PDMS) microfluidic channel, only the microbeads conjugated with superparamagnetic nanoparticles by analytes consequently move to the high gradient magnetic fields under the specific applied magnetic field. In this study, the magnetic force-based microfluidic immunoassay is successfully applied to detect the rabbit IgG and mouse IgG as model analytes. The lowest concentration of rabbit IgG and mouse IgG measured over the background is 244 pg mL(-1) and 15.6 ng mL(-1), respectively. The velocities of microbeads conjugated with superparamagnetic nanoparticles are demonstrated by magnetic field gradients in microfluidic channels and compared with the calculated magnetic field gradients. Moreover, dual analyte detection in a single reaction is also performed by the fluorescent encoded microbeads in the microfluidic device. Detection range and lower detection limit can be controlled by the microbeads concentration and the higher magnetic field gradient.  相似文献

We developed a novel method to prepare multi-colors high fluorescent/superparamagnetic nanoparticles (FMNPs) employing hydrophobic multi-color quantum dots (QDs) and hydrophobic Fe(3)O(4) (MNPs) via ultrasonic emulsification method. This structural procedure was simple, one-off, and timesaving. Different-sizes FMNPs with encoding single/multi-color QDs and MNPs were achieved. Analysis with transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and particle size analyzer demonstrated that the as-prepared samples were spherical, uniform in size distribution; Ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL) measurement showed the FMNPs had good optical properties, lacking of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) inside FMNPs; vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) indicated that FMNPs were superparamagnetic. These results indicate that the as-prepared FMNPs have potential of serving as a hybrid of QDs and MNPs in bioanalysis communities.  相似文献

Recently ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide (USPIO) nanoparticles (NPs) have been widely used for medical applications. One of their important applications is using these particles as MRI contrast agent. While various research works have been done about MRI application of USPIOs, there is limited research about their uptakes in various organs. The aim of this study was to evaluate the biodistribution of dextran coated iron oxide NPs labelled with 99mTc in various organs via intravenous injection in Balb/c mice. The magnetite NPs were dispersed in phosphate buffered saline and SnCl2 which was used as a reduction reagent. Subsequently, the radioisotope 99mTc was mixed directly into the reaction solution. The labeling efficiency of USPIOs labeled with 99mTc, was above 99 %. Sixty mice were sacrificed at 12 different time points (From 1 min to 48 h post injections; five mice at each time). The percentage of injected dose per gram of each organ was measured by direct counting for 19 harvested organs of the mice. The biodistribution of 99mTc-USPIO in Balb/c mice showed dramatic uptake in reticuloendothelial system. Accordingly, about 75 percent of injected dose was found in spleen and liver at 15 min post injection. More than 24 % of the NPs remain in liver after 48 h post-injection and their clearance is so fast in other organs. The results suggest that USPIOs as characterized in our study can be potentially used as contrast agent in MR Imaging, distributing reticuloendothelial system specially spleen and liver.  相似文献

A one-pot colloidal reaction strategy was developed to synthesize asymmetric magnetic composite particles (AMCPs) with high anisotropy and magnetic content. The asymmetricity was established by having two portions of the particle composed of both polystyrene and silica, among which the latter was conjugated with magnetite nanoparticles. Phase separation was found to be critical in developing the asymmetric structure between the inorganic and polymer components during miniemulsion polymerization and the sol-gel reaction. Morphological control of the magnetic composite particles was achieved in a straightforward fashion by adjusting the processing parameters. These asymmetric nanomaterials with superparamagnetic and amphiphilic properties will have significant potential in biomedical applications.  相似文献

The bacterium Actinobacter sp. has been shown to be capable of extracellularly synthesizing iron based magnetic nanoparticles, namely maghemite (gamma-Fe2O3) and greigite (Fe3S4) under ambient conditions depending on the nature of precursors used. More precisely, the bacterium synthesized maghemite when reacted with ferric chloride and iron sulfide when exposed to the aqueous solution of ferric chloride-ferrous sulfate. Challenging the bacterium with different metal ions resulted in induction of different proteins, which bring about the specific biochemical transformations in each case leading to the observed products. Maghemite and iron sulfide nanoparticles show superparamagnetic characteristics as expected. Compared to the earlier reports of magnetite and greigite synthesis by magnetotactic bacteria and iron reducing bacteria, which take place strictly under anaerobic conditions, the present procedure offers significant advancement since the reaction occurs under aerobic condition. Moreover, reaction end products can be tuned by the choice of precursors used.  相似文献

Silver nanoparticles were prepared in situ using sunlight and cationic surfactants. Silver nano-particles were confirmed using UV–vis spectrophotometry, transmission electron microscopy(TEM), electron diffraction, dynamic light scattering(DLS) and FTIR. Increasing the hydrophobic chain length of surfactants increase the amount of silver nano-particles formed in addition to increasing their stability.The results showed formed, uniform, well arranged hexagonal and spherical shapes. The prepared silver nanoparticles exhibit enhanced biological activity against Gram-positive, Gram-negative bacteria and sulfate reducing bacteria(SRB).  相似文献
