Organic/inorganic hybrid materials prepared by the sol–gel approach have rapidly become a fascinating new field of research
in materials science. The explosion of activity in this area in the past decade has made tremendous progress in both the fundamental
understanding of the sol–gel process and the development and applications of new organic/inorganic hybrid materials. Polymer-inorganic
nanocomposite present an interesting approach to improve the separation properties of polymer material because they possess
properties of both organic and inorganic such as good permeability, selectivity, mechanical strength, and thermal and chemical
stability. Composite material derived by combining the sol–gel approach and organic polymers synthesis of hybrid material
were the focus area of review It has also been demonstrated in this review that a more complete understanding of their structure–property
behavior can be gained by employing many of the standard tools that are utilized for developing similar structure–property
relationships of organic polymers. This review article is introductory in nature and gives introduction to composite materials/nanocomposite,
their applications and the methods commonly employed for their synthesis and characterization. A brief literature survey on
the polysaccharide templated and polysaccharide/protein dual templated synthesis of silica composite materials is also presented
in this review article. 相似文献

Three-dimensional photonic bandgap structures have been synthesized by a colloidal/sol–gel route, starting with the self-organization
of polystyrene microspheres into opals by dip-coating, sedimentation or vertical convective self-assembly, followed by sol–gel
infiltration of the interstices with silica, titania or a silica-titania mixture, by dip-coating and removal of the polymeric
template. The structural and optical properties of the opals and inverse opals prepared by this method have been studied by
scanning electron microscopy and visible infra-red spectroscopies to assess the relationship between their structure and the
photonic properties obtained. The optical transmission and reflection spectra of the opal and inverse opal structures have
also been simulated by the Translight Software code, using the Transfer Matrix method, for different numbers of stacked layers,
showing reasonable agreement with the experimental results. By optimizing the fabrication parameters, colloidal photonic crystals
of good quality have been obtained, with reduced defect concentrations and increased mechanical strength. 相似文献

This study investigated the effects of different additives and precursors on the catalytic activity of laccase entrapped in
sol–gel silica. It was found that the laccase catalytic activity and stability of sol–gel laccase could be enhanced if the
entrapment was performed in the presence of additives such as PVA, PEG and APTS. The use of TEOS as a precursor showed slightly
higher laccase catalytic activity compared to TMOS. The PVA as an additive showed a better catalytic activity enhancement
compared to the PEG and APTMS with the optimum PVA concentration of 0.03 mg/mL. The optimal temperatures of sol–gel laccase
without and with additives were found to be at 40 and 27°C, respectively. After 70 days of storage at 27°C, the catalytic
activity of the immobilized sol–gel laccase with additives maintained its catalytic activity compared to only 30% of its original
catalytic activity for the sol–gel laccase without additives. 相似文献

Titanium (IV) oxide semiconducting layers were prepared by means of the templated sol–gel method and deposited on conductive
ITO substrates. The films were described by a series of techniques involving X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy,
X-ray reflectivity (XRR), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy
(UV–Vis). The photo-excitation properties of the films were characterized by electrochemical tests and evaluated from the
obtained polarization curves. The generated photocurrents were measured in the presence of the hole-scavengers—oxalic acid
and formic acid in the electrolyte. It was shown that especially in the case of oxalic acid the developed system can be used
as an efficient and simpler concentration sensor. The relationship between values of the generated photocurrent and the layers’
thicknesses was also investigated. 相似文献

Biocatalysis presents a sound alternative to chemical synthesis in the field of drug production, given the highly selective
nature of biological catalysts. Penicillin G Acylase (PGA) from E. coli is currently used to hydrolyze penicillin G (PG) and catalyzes the synthesis of β-lactam antibiotics. In this work, particular
emphasis is given to recent developments in penicillin G acylase immobilization, by entrapment simultaneously with nano-magnetic
particles in a silica matrix. The sol–gel biocatalytic particles were prepared either by a conventional method (crushed powder)
or by a more recent approach, based in an emulsion system using 150 mM AOT/isooctane, which allowed for the formation of spherical
micro- and nanobeads. The effects on PGA activity of different sol–gel precursors, additives, enzyme concentration, aging,
drying conditions and mechanical stability were evaluated. After these optimization studies, a mechanically stable carrier
based on porous xerogels silica matrixes, starting from tetramethoxysilane (TMOS) with 65–67% PGA activity yield in these
carriers allowed an immobilization yield of 74 mg protein gdry sol–gel−1 and 930 Ugdry sol–gel−1 for specific activity were obtained. 相似文献

Previous studies from our lab reported on the use of time-resolved fluorescence anisotropy (TRFA) to probe the dynamics of
domains I and II within the model protein, human serum albumin (HSA), in solution and when entrapped into sol–gel derived
silica. In order to further our understanding of the dynamics within this multi-domain protein, TRFA was used to measure the
dynamics of domain III of the protein. For this purpose, the fluorescence ligand dansylsarcosine (DS), which has a 400-fold
higher emission intensity in the bound state relative to the free state and an emission lifetime of >22 ns when bound to Sudlow’s
site II (domain III) in HSA, was selected. This probe is able to accurately report on slow rotational motions (up to 300 ns
correlation time) and the bound form of the probe can be selectively measured at 475 nm, ensuring that the dynamics reflect
only the properly folded form of the protein. The mobility of HSA with bound dansylsarcosine (HSA–DS) was evaluated in solution
and after entrapment in sol–gel derived silica prepared from sodium silicate under varying ionic strength and pH conditions.
The results here show that (1) the 43 ns global rotational correlation time of HSA in buffered solution can be accurately
measured via labeling with DS with no interference from faster local or segmental motions; (2) the global motion of HSA in
silica is greatly hindered immediately after encapsulation, with no correlation time faster than 300 ns discernable, indicative
of strong templating of the silica around domain III of the native protein; and (3) the addition of salt and variation of
pH have essentially no effect on HSA mobility, ruling out electrostatics as the primary interaction restricting HSA motion.
The results from this study are compared to past studies using intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence (domain II) or fluorescein-labeled
HSA (domain I), and demonstrate that motion observed using such probes likely reflects differential mobility of the three
domains, consistent with domain III of HSA adsorbing to or templating with silica upon entrapment while the other domains
protrude into the pore. Restricted motion of domain III of HSA was also observed in silica materials derived from diglycerylsilane
or tetraethylorthosilicate, showing that templating is not dependent on the silica precursor or processing conditions. 相似文献

Although the use of silica sol–gels for protein entrapment has been studied extensively our understanding of the interactions
between the immobilization matrix and the entrapped biomolecules is still relatively poor. Non-invasive in situ spectroscopic
characterization is a promising approach to gain a better understanding of the fundamentals governing sol–gel immobilization
of biomolecules. This work describes the application of Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) microscopy to determine the influence
of modifying the sol–gel hydrophobicity, by varying the content of the organically modified precursor propyltrimethoxysilane
(PTMS), on the distribution and structure of three model proteins (lysozyme [EC 3.2.1.17], lipase [EC 3.1.1.3] and bovine
serum albumin (BSA)) in silica sol–gel thin films. FTIR analysis of the overall immobilized protein positional distribution
showed a Gaussian type distribution. FTIR microscopic mapping however, revealed that the spatial distribution of proteins
was heterogeneous in the sol–gel thin films. When this positional information provided by FTIR microscopy was taken into account,
areas of high protein concentration (clusters) were found and were not found to be homogeneously distributed. The shape of
these clusters was found to depend on the type of protein entrapped, and in some cases on the composition of the sol–gel.
Positional analysis of the distribution of the organically modified precursor PTMS in relation to the protein distribution
was also conducted. The localized concentration of PTMS was found to positively correlate with the protein concentration in
the case of lipase and negatively correlate in the case of lysozyme and BSA. These results indicate that lysozyme and BSA
concentration was higher in areas of low hydrophobicity, while lipase concentration was higher in areas of high hydrophobicity
within the sol–gel. Additionally, as determined by peak shape analysis of the amide I peak a higher PTMS content appeared
to conserve protein structure in high concentration clusters for lipase. In contrast, lysozyme and BSA, appeared to retain
their structure in high concentration clusters better at lower PTMS contents. A hypothesis speculating on the nature of the
hydrophobic/hydrophilic interactions between the proteins and the sol–gel domains as the reason for these differences is presented. 相似文献

Micro-Attenuated Total Reflection (ATR) Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy was used to investigate sol–gel layers for
biosensing applications prior and after glucose oxidase (GOD) immobilization. The changes occurring in sol–gel infrared spectrum
after GOD immobilization were clearly evidenced confirming the retaining of the enzyme activity. Moreover, micro-ATR experimental
technique allowed us to investigate the spatial distribution of enzyme concentration. The non-destructive nature of our approach
also enabled to monitor the time stability of sol–gel layers and of embedded GOD. The temporal evolution of some peaks in
infrared spectra of these sol–gel layers was compared with absorption and steady-state fluorescence measurements. The results
reported here confirm that micro-ATR infrared spectroscopy can be usefully employed for a non- or minimally invasive detailed
characterization of supports for enzyme immobilization. 相似文献

A method for the continuous-flow fractionation of particles in a transverse centrifugal field in a rotating conoidal coiled
(RCC) column has been developed. A model of a planetary centrifuge with a conoidal drum of a special construction has been tested.
The effects of the rotation and revolution speed of the conoidal RCC, as well as the direction and pumping rate of the mobile
phase on the behavior of particles smaller than 1 μm have been studied. The conditions have been selected and optimized for
the retention and elution of spherical particles of the ‘150 nm’, ‘400 nm’, and ‘900 nm’ standard samples of silica gel (Polyscience Inc.). The possibility of using RCC for the analysis and production of monodisperse standard particle samples has been demonstrated.
In particular, the ‘900 nm’ particles have been separated from admixtures of small (100–200 nm) particles and nonspherical
1–2 μm particles present in the sample. The separated fractions have been characterized by electron microscopy. 相似文献

Several examples of sol–gel preparation of doped materials are taken to illustrate the various situations where the doping
elements are responsible for the main function of the material or govern its structure. Other examples are used to illustrate
that sometimes unexpected effects can be observed like structural modification and the appearance of new properties. Rare
earth doped scintillators demonstrate higher homogeneity for materials prepared via sol–gel chemistry when compared with classical
solid state reaction. The XRD study of rare earth doped orthoborates shows that doping can affect the vaterite to calcite
phase transition observed in these compounds. A Raman spectroscopic study has been performed on doped silica xerogels and
it has been shown that doping ions can modify greatly the densification process in these amorphous materials. Finally, it
has been evidenced that sol–gel chemistry allows the preparation of bioactive ceramics with enhanced properties. In particular
Zn-doped HAP with anti inflammatory properties has been prepared and Sr-doped bioactive glasses have demonstrated superior
in-vitro bioactivity as evidenced by PIXE-RBS study. 相似文献

Undoped and Mn doped ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized by two wet chemical techniques: sol–gel and gel-combustion. We were
able to prepare Mn-doped ZnO nanoparticles free from the second phases at calcining temperatures 400 and 500 °C using sol–gel
and gel combustion, respectively. Complete crystallization occurs in both methods, but it is found that the crystallization
is better performed in the ZnO based solid solution prepared by the sol–gel method. TEM images show that the average size
of the nanoparticles synthesized by gel-combustion is smaller than that of prepared by sol–gel method. Optical characterizations
such as vibrational properties, lattice dynamical parameters, absorption edges and optical band gap energies were also carried
out by FTIR and UV–Vis spectroscopies. The quantitative estimations led to the conclusion that the effects of the method on
the particle size and the optical band gap energy of the prepared samples are very significant. 相似文献

Sol–gel encapsulation has been used as the basis for detecting cortisol by an immunoassay approach. Previous research showed
that antibodies immobilized in the pores of a sol–gel derived silica were able to bind cortisol and be used as an immunosensor.
However, this approach was not effective when measuring cortisol levels in human serum because of interference from other
fluorescence sources. The present paper describes a protocol which overcomes these limitations and enables sol–gel immunoassays
to effectively measure cortisol in human serum over the physiological range of cortisol blood concentrations in an adult (2–28 μg/dL).
The method involves a standard additions approach in which various amounts of cortisol are added to the serum. The cortisol
concentration values obtained with our sol–gel immunoassay were typically within 10% of the values obtained by traditional
analytical methods. The protocol presented here represents a significant contribution to sol–gel sensing and immunoassays
in particular, because of the ability to detect an analyte in human serum. In addition, this work reports the first comparison
between results from a sol–gel immunosensor and an alternative immuno-binding method for analyte detection. 相似文献

The present work reveals a new and simple strategy, a one-step sol–gel procedure, to encapsulate a low water-soluble drug
in silica mesostructured microparticles and to improve its release in physiological media. The synthesis of these new materials
is based on the efficient solubilisation of a poorly water-soluble drug in surfactant micelles (Tween 80, a pharmaceutical
excipient) which act as template for the silica network. A strict control of the sol–gel process and the parameters procedure
in soft conditions (concentration, pH, temperature) was applied to reach the solubilisation limit of the drug in the micellar
solution so as to optimise its encapsulation. Even if this one-pot procedure could appear limited by the low drug loading,
it could provide an interesting alternative for the formulation of many recent highly active but very poorly soluble drugs. 相似文献

CdO–ZnO nanocomposite was fabricated by a sol–gel pyrrolysis method based on the poly vinyl alcohol (PVA) polymeric network.
The prepared nanocomposite was carefully characterized using scanning electron microscopy, X-Ray dispersive energy analysis,
ICP-atomic emission spectroscopy, X-Ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and UV–visible spectroscopy. The structure,
composition, and morphology of this composite depend on a number of aspects: the amounts of cadmium salt, zinc salt, and PVA
in the initial solution, the solvent composition, and the pyrrolysis temperature. The obtained results showed that the nanocomposite
had excellent linear nanoclusters created from nanograins. Each nanograin was made of a CdO core, completely covered by ZnO
layers. Total diameter of each nanograin was 70–90 nm. 相似文献

In this article, we report on the formation of well-defined highly emissive silica-covered porphyrin microstructures in base-catalyzed
sol–gel processes. The microstructures were obtained by self-assembly of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-hydroxyphenyl)porphyrin (mTHPP)
at room temperature. Tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) was used as a silica precursor. The hybrid mTHPP- silica particles were characterized
by means of reflectance UV–Vis and microscopy techniques including atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM)
and confocal fluorescence microscopy (CM). The SEM and TEM observations revealed that depending on the porphyrin concentration
used in the synthesis, the shape of the hybrid mTHPP-silica particles has changed from ribbon-like (c
mTHPP = 2.09 mM) to rhombus-like structures (c
mTHPP = 4.35 mM). The ribbons were straight-edged, uniform in width (1.2–1.8 μm) and height (350–400 nm), and variable in length
(40–100 μm). The rhombs were 1–3.7 μm in height, 7–25 μm in length, and 3.5–15 μm in width, and the ratio of length to width
was uniform and equal to ca. 1.8–2. UV–Vis absorption spectra indicated that the J-aggregates and H-aggregates formed in the
systems with lower and higher porphyrin content, respectively. Formation of different type of porphyrin aggregates in both
systems resulted in different emission spectra, as it was shown with CM. 相似文献

The sol–gel synthesis strategies combined with the templated growth of organic–inorganic hybrid networks provide access to
an immense new area of innovative multi-functional advanced materials. One possible way to prepare such new advanced materials
is to encapsulate liquid active agents (such as monomers, dyes, catalysts and hardeners) in microcapsules. Silica microcapsules
of tetraethylortosilicate (TEOS) and 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (MPTS) were prepared in a precursor-monomer/NH4OH water microemulsion system. Trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA)—a trifunctional monomer useful in manufacturing of coatings,
inks and adhesives—and a corresponding photoinitiator (DAROCUR 1173) were entrapped inside the obtained microcapsules. MPTS
was used to increase compatibility between TMPTA and the sol–gel precursors. As stability agent we added a “home made” product
resulted from functionalization of poly (ethylene glycol) methyl ether (MPEG) with (3-isocyanatopropyl) triethoxysilane (NCOTEOS).
Were obtained microcapsules containing incorporated monomer and having average particle size in range of 0.5–50 μm. Thermal
analysis, morphology study and the increase of the silica microcapsules average diameter, measured by DLS technique confirm
the monomer encapsulation. 相似文献

A silica sol–gel glass containing thrombin was spin-coated on a quartz crystal and used to measure the binding of thrombin
with thrombin-specific aptamers. The porous structures of the silica thin films were optimized to facilitate binding of the
aptamers with thrombin by varying the solution pH and the concentration of polyethylene glycol. The hydrophilic silica sol–gel
glass prevented aptamers from adsorbing nonspecifically and the absence of covalent bonding allowed the entrapped thrombin
molecules to retain their reactivity. Further, the mass sensitivity of the quartz crystal microbalance was enhanced by encapsulating
more thrombin molecules inside the porous sol–gel glasses. 相似文献

The aim of this work was to study the effect of the incorporation of cerium nitrate in a silica-methacrylate sol–gel hybrid
matrix reinforced with silica nanoparticles. Sols, coatings and powders have been studied, focusing specially in the determination
of the redox ratio Ce3+/Ce4+ and films structure. Sols have been characterised using viscosity measurements and FT-IR spectroscopy, and powders and coatings
obtained with different Ce contents through UV–Vis and FT-IR spectroscopy, TGA, TEM, AFM and FE-SEM. The goal was to reach
the best compromise between maximum cerium concentration and coating stability to better understand the mechanisms acting
in active anti-corrosive processes. 相似文献

Whereas glucose oxidase and related proteins are encapsulated readily in silica sol–gels, α-hydroxy enzymes such as lactate
oxidase (LOx), are reported to be damaged by electrostatic interaction with these matrices. Based on a previous report, poly(ethyleneimine),
PEI, was evaluated as a protecting compound under conditions suited to analytical measurements. With LOx and PEI co-encapsulated
in a silica sol–gel, the enzyme retained 62% of its initial activity after 20 days. In the absence of PEI, activity was lost
during the processing. Batch analytical measurements with enzyme-doped sol–gel yielded a linear response over the range 0.5–2.0 mM
lactate and a detection limit of 0.03 mM lactate. Both simple incorporation of LOx in a silica sol–gel and an alternative
protection method, blocking the ion-exchange sites on silica with La(III), failed. These negative results supported the hypothesis
that the efficacy of PEI was related to its formation of a protective sheath around the enzyme.

In this work, sol–gel derived silica films were prepared for direct desorption/ionization of organic compounds in MALDI-TOF–MS
analysis with the aim of improving method precision and of reducing interfering signals at low m/z values. Two commonly used
MALDI matrices, 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB) and α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (CHCA), were incorporated into the sol–gel
network in order to absorb laser energy and to induce analyte desorption/ionization with low or absent background signals
in the mass spectra. To achieve a reproducible xerogel film formation, experimental parameters for its deposition were optimized.
The gel matrices were characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-ray Diffraction (XRD), and Scanning
Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis. The results proved the embedding of the matrix molecules in a disperse form into the homogeneous
sol–gel material. The sol–gel matrix was then tested for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of two reference peptides,
such as Bradykinin and P14R. In addition, spectral quality and method performance were assessed for quantitation of melamine, a low-molecular weight
compound of food safety concern. In all cases, high quality spectra and excellent mass accuracy (between 3.5 and 13 ppm) were
observed. Furthermore, the experimental results evidenced a significant improvement of the measurement repeatability on spot
and between spots (relative standard deviation <10%), with respect to the traditional dried-droplet sample deposition method.
Good sensitivity and linearity in the concentration range explored were obtained for peptides and melamine, demonstrating
the suitability of the sol–gel-based matrix to be used for quantitative analysis. 相似文献
