Nanohydrogel Formation within the Halloysite Lumen for Triggered and Sustained Release
2018
An easy strategy to obtain nanohydrogels within the halloysite nanotube (HNTs) lumen was investigated. Inorganic reverse micelles based on HNTs and hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromides were dispersed in chloroform, and the hydrophilic cavity was used as a nanoreactor to confine the gel formation based on alginate cross-linked by calcium ions. Spectroscopy and electron microscopy experiments proved the confinement of the polymer into the HNT lumen and the formation of calcium-mediated networks. Biological tests proved the biocompatibility of the hybrid hydrogel. The nanogel in HNTs was suitable for drug loading and sustained release with the opportunity of triggered burst release by chemical …
Copper(I) Bromide: An Alternative Emitter for Blue-Colored Flame Pyrotechnics.
2015
Copper(I) bromide was evaluated as an alternative emitter for blue flame pyrotechnic compositions. CuBr and CuCl emission spectra were recorded from a butane torch flame and compared. Cu(BrO3 )2 was synthesized and used in pyrotechnic compositions as an oxidizer and the source for the generation of CuBr species. Pyrotechnic compositions, which contained copper and potassium bromates as oxidizers, were optimized for the generation of blue flames. The experimental data, including emission spectra of the flames, chromaticity coordinates, burning rates, luminous intensities, and sensitivity tests, were analyzed and compared.
Stabilisation of LDPE cross-linked in the presence of peroxidesII. FTIR study of chemical changes taking place in the LDPE–dicumyl peroxide–Irganox 1…
2000
Abstract The chemical changes taking place in the systems: LDPE–Irganox 1081, LDPE–dicumyl peroxide and LDPE–Irganox 1081–dicumyl peroxide, after homogenisation (in a rolling mill at 130°C) and after homogenisation and cross-linking (at 180°C and 5.0 MPa for 20 min) were investigated by FTIR. It was found that the OH groups in Irganox 1081 were in a bound form, and were most probably linked to the sulphur co-ordination centre. Further, the presence of dicumyl peroxide without Irganox 1081 in LDPE resulted in the formation of hydroperoxide groups at a temperature of 130°C, which were replaced by free hydroxy and carbonyl groups of a ketonic type after cross-linking. Simultaneous addition of …
Primary structure and unusual carbohydrate moiety of functional unit 2-c of keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH)
1999
Abstract The complete amino acid sequence of the Megathura crenulata hemocyanin functional unit KLH2-c was determined by direct sequencing and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry of the protein, and of peptides obtained by cleavage with EndoLysC proteinase, chymotrypsin and cyanogen bromide. This is the first complete primary structure of a functional unit c from a gastropod hemocyanin. KLH2-c consists of 420 amino acid residues. Circular dichroism spectra indicated approx. 31% β-sheet and 29% α-helix contents. A multiple sequence alignment with other molluscan hemocyanin functional units revealed average identities between 41 and 49%, but 55% in case of Octopus he…
Preparation of Carbon-14 Labeled 2-(2-mercaptoacetamido)-3-phenylpropanoic Acid as Metallo-beta-lactamases Inhibitor (MBLI), for Coadministration wit…
2019
Aim and Objective: Bacteria could become resistant to β-lactam antibiotics through production of β- lactamase enzymes like metallo-β-lactamase. 2-(2-mercaptoacetamido)-3-phenylpropanoic acid was reported as a model inhibitor for this enzyme. In order to elucidate the mechanism of action in the body’s internal environment, preparation of a labeled version of 2-(2-mercaptoacetamido)-3-phenylpropanoic acid finds importance. In this regard, we report a convenient synthetic pathway for preparation of carbon-14 labeled 2-(2- mercaptoacetamido)-3-phenylpropanoic acid. Materials and Methods: This study was initiated by using non-radioactive materials. Then, necessary characterization was performed…
Tunable luminescent lead bromide complexes
2020
Lead halides are used extensively to prepare perovskite-based devices but it is less known that lead halides can also form luminescent complexes in solvents. Using polyethylene glycol as a solvent, a lead bromide complex with a photoluminescence quantum yield over 20% is obtained and the photoluminescence peak can be shifted around 50 nm with different alkylammonium bromides.
Synthesis of linear polyglycerols with tailored degree of methylation by copolymerization and the effect on thermorheological behavior
2017
Abstract We introduce a two-step strategy for the synthesis of linear polyglycerols (linPG-OHx/OMey) with an adjustable degree of methylation ( y = D M 100 ). Ethoxy ethyl glycidyl ether (EEGE) and glycidyl methyl ether (GME) were copolymerized via the “activated monomer” polymerization technique, using tetraoctylammonium bromide (NOct4Br) as an initiator and triisobutylaluminum (i-Bu3Al) as a catalyst under mild conditions. Subsequent acidic cleavage of the acetal protective groups generates linear polyglycerols with different degree of methylation (DM) by varying the GME comonomer content between 10 and 91%. Size exclusion chromatography (SEC) evidenced good control over molecular weight …
A Challenging Comonomer Pair: Copolymerization of Ethylene Oxide and Glycidyl Methyl Ether to Thermoresponsive Polyethers
2014
Motivated by the oxygen-rich and fully amorphous structure of poly(glycidyl methyl ether) (PGME), a series of thermoresponsive poly(glycidyl methyl ether-co-ethylene oxide) copolymers P(GME-co-EO) with molecular weights in the range of 3000–20 000 g mol–1 were synthesized by the activated monomer polymerization technique. Tetraoctylammonium bromide (NOct4Br) was employed as an initiator in combination with triisobutylaluminum (i-Bu3Al) as a catalyst under mild conditions. Polyethers with varying GME content between 31 and 100 mol % were obtained. Triad sequence analysis using 13C NMR spectroscopy proved that no pronounced block structure was obtained. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)…
Epicyanohydrin: Polymerization by Monomer Activation Gives Access to Nitrile-, Amino-, and Carboxyl-Functional Poly(ethylene glycol)
2015
Both homo- and copolymerization of the hitherto nonpolymerizable epoxide monomer epicyanohydrin (EPICH) with ethylene oxide (EO) have been studied, employing the monomer activation technique. Tetraoctylammonium bromide or tetrabutylammonium iodide was used as initiator combined with i-Bu3Al to activate the EPICH monomer. The EPICH content was varied from 4 to 16 mol %, yielding well-defined PEG-co-PEPICH copolymers with molecular weights Mn (SEC) ranging from 3700 to 8800 g mol–1. The nitrile groups of the resulting polyethers were further reduced or hydrolyzed to introduce amino, amide, or carboxyl groups at the polyether backbone, circumventing protecting group chemistry. Successful trans…
