Combined AC‐electrokinetic effects: Theoretical considerations on a three‐axial ellipsoidal model

AC fields induce charges at the structural interfaces of particles or biological cells. The interaction of these charges with the field generates frequency‐dependent forces that are the basis for AC‐electrokinetic effects such as dielectrophoresis (DEP), electrorotation (ROT), electro‐orientation, and electro‐deformation. The effects can be used for the manipulation or dielectric single‐particle spectroscopy. The observation of a particular effect depends on the spatial and temporal field distributions, as well as on the shape and the dielectric and viscoelastic properties of the object. Because the effects are not mutually independent, combined frequency spectra are obtained, for example, discontinuous DEP and ROT spectra with ranges separated by the reorientation of nonspherical objects in the linearly and circularly polarized DEP and ROT fields, respectively. As an example, the AC electrokinetic behavior of a three‐axial ellipsoidal single‐shell model with the geometry of chicken‐red blood cells is considered. The geometric and electric problems were separated using the influential‐radius approach. The obtained finite‐element model can be electrically interpreted by an RC model leading to an expression for the Clausius–Mossotti factor, which permits the derivation of force, torque, and orientation spectra, as well as of equations for the critical frequencies and force plateaus in DEP and of the characteristic frequencies and peak heights in ROT. Expressions for the orientation in linearly and circularly polarized fields, as well as for the reorientation frequencies were also derived. The considerations suggested that the simultaneous registration of various AC‐electrokinetic spectra is a step towards the dielectric fingerprinting of single objects.     

Magnetic Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles Cloaked by Red Blood Cell Membranes: Applications in Cancer Therapy

Targeted drug delivery is an emerging technological strategy that enables nanoparticle systems to be responsive for tumor therapy. Magnetic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MMSNs) were cloaked with red blood cell membrane (RBC). This integrates long circulation, photosensitizer delivery, and magnetic targeting for cancer therapy. In vivo experiments demonstrate that RBC@MMSNs can avoid immune clearance and achieve magnetic field (MF)‐induced high accumulation in a tumor. When light irradiation is applied, singlet oxygen rapidly generates from hypocrellin B (HB)‐loaded RBC@MMSN and leads to the necrosis of tumor tissue. Such a RBC‐cloaked magnetic nanocarrier effectively integrates immunological adjuvant, photosensitizer delivery, MF‐assisted targeting photodynamic therapy, which provides an innovative strategy for cancer therapy.     

Ultra‐fast liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry for the rapid phenolic profiling of red maple (Acer rubrum) leaves

The red maple (Acer rubrum) species is economically important to North America because of its sap, which is used to produce maple syrup. In addition, various other red maple plant parts, including leaves, were used as a traditional medicine by the Native Americans. Currently, red maple leaves are being used for nutraceutical and cosmetic applications but there are no published analytical methods for comprehensive phytochemical characterization of this material. Herein, a rapid and sensitive method using liquid chromatography with electrospray ionization time‐of‐flight tandem mass spectrometry was developed to characterize the phenolics in a methanol extract of red maple leaves and a proprietary phenolic‐enriched red maple leaves extract (Maplifa™). Time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry and tandem mass spectrometry experiments led to the identification of 106 phenolic compounds in red maples leaves with the vast majority of these compounds also detected in Maplifa™. The compounds included 68 gallotannins, 25 flavonoids, gallic acid, quinic acid, catechin, epicatechin, and nine other gallic acid derivatives among which 11 are potentially new and 75 are being reported from red maple for the first time. The developed method to characterize red maple leaves phenolics is rapid and highly sensitive and could aid in future standardization and quality control of this botanical ingredient.

Pyrolysis of arylglycol-β-propylphenyl ether lignin model in the presence of borosilicate glass fibers. : I. Pyrolysis reactions of β-ether compounds

Two β-aryl ether type model compounds, guaiacylglycol- and veratrylglycol-β-propylphenyl ethers, were copyrolyzed with borosilicate glass fibers. The results provided a better understanding of the effect of copyrolysis with the fibers on the yields of lignin-derived products from lignocellulosics.

The observed products indicated the following reactions occurring in the models; (1) cleavage of the C-aromatic ring bond, (2) cleavage of the β-ether bond, (3) cleavage of the C-Cβ bond, (4) ,β-dehydration, and (5) demethylation, and others. Of these reactions, reactions (1), (2) and (4) were the main pyrolysis reactions and fully explained the increase in the total yield of lignin-derived pyrolysis products from Japanese red pine (Pinus densiflora Sieb. et Zucc.) in the presence of borosilicate glass fibers. Reaction (1) was a particularly characteristic reaction in copyrolysis with the fibers. Important reactions relating to the increase in the total yield of lignin-derived pyrolysis products were reproduced on the models used.
