Surface modification. I. Polyacrolein microspheres covalently bonded onto polyethylene

The synthesis and characterization of novel surfaces composed of polyacrolein microspheres covalently bonded onto polyethylene films are described. These surfaces were prepared through a sequence of reactions carried out onto polyethylene films in order to form primary amine groups at the w position. Polyacrolein microspheres in water were then covalently bonded to these modified polyethylene surfaces. The binding between the microspheres and the modified surfaces is due to the interaction between the aldehyde groups of the microspheres and the amine groups of the modified surfaces to form the polyvalent Schiff base bonds. Fourier transform-infrared/attenuated total reflection, electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis, contact angle measurements, and scanning electron microscopy have been used for the characterization of the modified polyethylene surfaces.

Immobilization of the restriction endonuclease PstI

PstI has been immobilized in agarose. A solution of low melting agarose containing 1,6-hexamethylenediamine and PstI formed a gel that was effective in the linearization of pBR322 DNA. The gel containing PstI could be treated with 1,5-bis(N-acetylamino-N-succinimidoxy carbonyl)pentane, a crosslinking agent, without affecting the enzyme activity. Polymerization of acrylamide in presence of PstI led to conisderably reduced enzyme activity, although EcoRI under identical conditions showed high activity. It was found that acetylation of amino groups in PstI, by reaction with hydroxysuccinimide acetate, led to total inactivation of the enzyme activity. This reaction showed the presence of reactive amino groups that were essential for the enzyme activity of PstI. Involvement of these amino groups in binding to activated Sepharose 4B, during covalent immobilization, was responsible for inactive enzyme preparations.     

An immobilized microbial heparinase for blood deheparinization

A new medical application of an immobilized microbial enzyme is described. Extracorporeal devices require systemic heparin administration to prevent thrombus formation; however, the use of heparin often leads to serious hemorrhagic complica tions. Heparinase isolated from Flavobacterium has been immobilized and used in a fluidized bed reactor to eliminate heparin from blood passing through an extracorporeal circuit both in vitro and in vivo. This paper discusses the stepwise de velopment of this heparinase reactor including: (1) improvements in the fermentation resulting in an inexpensive large-scale source of heparinase without the addition of the previously required inducer, heparin; (2) the use of batch processes to adapt previous purification schemes to large-scale heparinase production and the subsequent purifica tion of heparinase to a single SDS-PAGE banding protein; (3) the immobilization of heparinase with a 91% activity recovery and good stability, (4) the design and suc cessful testing of a fluidized bed reactor containing immobilized heparinase in the re moval of clinically used quantities of heparin from both human blood in vitro and ca nine blood in vivo; and (5) the initiation of animal studies focusing on the toxicology of heparinase-derived heparin degradation products and the short and long term effects of exposure to these products and to heparinase.     

Production of propionic acid using a xylose utilizingPropionibacterium

The kinetics ofP. acidipropionici (ATCC25562), a xylose-utilizing rumen microorganism, was studied to assess its use for propionic acid production from wood hydrolyzates. Propionic acid has been shown to have a stronger inhibitory effect than acetic acid, with the undissociated acid form being responsible for the majority of the inhibitory effect. Thus, in batch tests with pH controlled at 6.0, the propionic acid concentration reaches 25 g/L and the acetic acid 7 g/L. Xylose uptake rate is dependent on the specific growth rate and glucose concentration. An immobilized cell columnar reactor at very high product yields (80%) proved adequate for propionic production. At cell concentrations of 95 g/L with high product concentration, volumetric productivities of 2.7 g/L·h were obtained in ultrafiltration cell recycle systems.

Characterization of the Penetration of the Blood–Brain Barrier by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Using a Stationary Phase with an Immobilized Artificial Membrane

The biological activity of drugs on organisms is associated with the pharmacokinetic properties, such as the ability to penetrate through environments of varying polarity such as cellular organelles. In this area, particular attention is turned to the physicochemical properties that determine the potential of drugs to pass across the blood–brain barrier and thus to act on the central nervous system. In this study, special effort has been devoted to the simulation of passive diffusion of seven drugs (propranolol, ibuprofen, atenolol, promazine, chlorpromazine, imipramine, and desipramine) through the blood–brain barrier by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using a column with an immobilized artificial membrane. Gradient reverse elution was used to develop a linear correlation model for the capacity factors k_IAM and the in vivo logarithmic values of brain-to-blood drug concentration ratios (log BB) with R of 0.9851. Eleven additional pharmaceuticals were determined by the same method to predict their potential to penetrate the blood–brain barrier. The reported analytical method represents an alternative tool for rapid and noninvasive assessment of the absorption properties of chemicals, especially for the development of novel drugs. The retention of the studied compounds on the immobilized artificial membrane column was also compared with three other C18-based stationary phases. Herein, the results of the HPLC determination of drugs using an immobilized artificial membrane are briefly discussed with respect to a general application of the method for evaluating a broader spectrum of pharmaceutical compounds.     

Applications of iron and nickel immobilized on hydroxyapatite‐core‐shell γ‐Fe2O3 as a nanomagnetic catalyst for the chemoselective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides under solvent‐free conditions

In the present study, Fe²⁺ and Ni²⁺ immobilized on hydroxyapatite‐core‐shell γ‐Fe₂O₃ (γ‐Fe₂O₃@HAp‐Fe²⁺ and γ‐Fe₂O₃@HAp‐Ni²⁺) with a high surface area has been synthesized and characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X‐ray diffraction (XRD), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and scanning electron microscope (SEM) techniques. Then, γ‐Fe₂O₃@HAp‐Fe²⁺ and γ‐Fe₂O₃@HAp‐Ni²⁺ were used as a new and magnetically recoverable nano catalyst for the selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides with 33% aqueous H₂O₂ (0.5 mL) as an oxidant at room temperature in good to excellent yields and short reaction time. Nontoxicity of reagent, mild reaction condition, inexpensive and high catalytic activity, simple experimental procedure, short period of conversion and excellent yields, and ease of recovery from the reaction mixture using an external magnet are the advantages of the present method.
