For a sodium salt of α-sulfonatomyristic acid methyl ester (14SFNa), one of the α-SFMe series surfactants, critical micellization
concentration (CMC), solubility and degree of counterion binding (β) were determined by means of electrocon-ductivity measurements
at different temperatures (at every 5 °C) ranging from 15 to 50 °C. The phase diagram of 14SFNa in pure water was constructed
from the CMC- and solubility-temperature data, in which the Krafft temperature (critical solution temperature) was found around
0 °C. The changes in the Gibbs energy, ΔG0m, enthalpy, ΔH0m, and entropy, ΔS0m, upon micelle formation as a function of temperature were evaluated taking βvalues into calculation.

New unsaturated polyesters of poly(fumaric acid-glycol-sebacic acid) copolymers and poly(maleic anhydride-glycol-sebacic acid) copolymers were prepared by melt polycondensation of the corresponding mixed monomers: sebacic anhydride, fumaric acid or maleic anhydride and glycol. Methyl-methacrylate (MMA) was used as crosslinker and dimer acid was used as thinner.In vitro studies showed that those copolymers are degradable in phosphate buffer at 37 °C and poly(fumaric acid-glycol-sebacic acid) has proper drug release rate as drug carriers. The biocompatibility of poly(fumaric acid-glycol-sebacic acid) copolymers under mice skin was also evaluated; macroscopic observation and microscopic analysis demonstrated that the copolymer is biocompatible and well tolerated in vivo. The injected poly(fumaric acid-glycol-sebacic acid) [molar ratio Mfumaric acid:Mglycol:Msebacic acid = 1.75:2.20:0.25] containing 5% adriamycin hydrochloride (ADM) in the mice bearing Sarcoma-180 tumor exhibited a good antitumor efficacy. The volume doubling time (VDT) (18 ± 2.5 days) of the tumor growth by this treatment was longer than that (7 ± 0.9 days) by the subcutaneous injection of ADM. 相似文献
N,N,N‐trimethylchitosan (TMC) was prepared by reacting purified chitosan with iodomethane, in the presence of sodium hydroxide, water and sodium iodide, at room temperature. The reaction medium was N‐methyl‐2‐pyrrolidone. Different samples of TMC were obtained by adding to the reaction medium a fixed volume (5.5 mL) of aqueous NaOH solutions at different concentrations (15, 20, 30 and 40 wt.‐%) and carrying out the reactions for 9 or 24 h. The features observed in the 1H and 13C NMR spectra of these chitosan derivatives, in respect of the chemical shift, number and relative intensity of the signals, depended strongly on the excess of NaOH and H3CI added to the reaction medium, but when the lowest excess was employed, the characteristics of the derivative were not affected by the reaction time to the same extent. The average degree of quaternization of these N‐methylated derivatives of chitosan ranged from 10.5% to 44.8%, according to the reaction conditions. Increasing the excess of NaOH, in reactions carried out for 9 h, resulted in TMC samples with progressively higher content of trimethylated sites however, the reaction yields were correspondingly lower and O‐alkylation was favored in these cases.

A systematic investigation of the parameters that affect the efficiency of immobilizing heparinase onto cyanogen bromide activated
crosslinked 8% agarose beads was conducted. Two experimental measures, the “fraction bound” and the “fraction retained,” were
used to monitor the coupling efficiency. The fraction bound is the portion of the total initial enzyme that is bound to the
agarose gel. The fraction retained is the fraction of bound enzyme that is active. The product of the two measures indicates
the coupling efficiency. The activity of the immobilized heparinase was measured under conditions free of both internal and
external mass transfer limitations, and thus, the fraction retained represents the true immobilized enzyme activity.
Increasing the degree of activation of the beads results in an increase in the fraction bound, the fraction retained, and
consequently, the coupling efficiency. As the ratio of enzyme solution to gel volume increases from 1.5 to 2.2, the fraction
bound remains constant but the fraction retained decreases (heparinase concentration; 0.15 mg/mL and degree of activation;
9.5 μmol of cyanate esters/g of gel). At volume ratios greater than 2.2, both the fraction bound and the fraction retained
decline continuously. Changing the heparinase concentration in the coupling solution changes the coupling efficiency in a
manner similar to that of the volume ratio change.
When heparin is added during the coupling process, the fraction bound declines as the heparin concentration increases, whereas
the fraction retained increases up to a heparin concentration of 12 mg/mL and decreases thereafter. When arginine, lysine,
and glycine are used to block the unreacted cyanate ester groups after the coupling process, the immobilized heparinase shows
different pH optima of 6.5, 6.9, and 7.2, respectively. Based upon these findings, a protocol to optimize heparinase immobilization
is developed. 相似文献
