Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-gated Fe3O4/SiO2 core shell nanoparticles with expanded mesoporous structures for the temperature triggered release of ly…

2015

Core-shell nanoparticles comprised of Fe3O4 cores and a mesoporous silica shell with an average expanded pore size of 6.07 nm and coated with a poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) layer (CS MSNs EP PNIPAM) were prepared and characterized. The nanoparticles was loaded with (Ru(bipy)3 2+) dye or an antibacterial enzyme, lysozyme, to obtain CS MSNs EP PNIPAM Ru(bipy)3 2+ and CS MSNs EP PNIPAM Lys, respectively. The lysozyme loading was determined to be 160 mg/g of nanoparticle. It was seen that Ru(bipy)3 2+ and lysozyme release was minimal at a room temperature of 25 ºC while at physiological temperature (37 º C), abrupt release was observed. The applicability of the CS MSNs EP PNIPAM Lys was…

Designed biodegradable hydrogel structures prepared by stereolithography using poly(ethylene glycol)/poly(D,L-lactide)-based resins

2010

Designed three-dimensional biodegradable poly(ethylene glycol)/poly(D,L-lactide) hydrogel structures were prepared for the first time by stereolithography at high resolutions. A photo-polymerisable aqueous resin comprising PDLLA-PEG-PDLLA-based macromer, visible light photo-initiator, dye and inhibitor in DMSO/water was used to build the structures. Porous and non-porous hydrogels with well-defined architectures and good mechanical properties were prepared. Porous hydrogel structures with a gyroid pore network architecture showed narrow pore size distributions, excellent pore interconnectivity and good mechanical properties. The structures showed good cell seeding characteristics, and human…

Complexes of organometallic compounds. XXXVIII. Anion Exchange Studies on the Trimethyllead (IV) Thiocyanate aqueous complex system

1974

The distribution of Me3PbIV between the anion exchange resin Dowex 1 X 8 and aqueous solutions of NaSCN and KSCN was investigated. In the aqueous phase, up to 3 M thiocyanate concentration, only the formation of the neutral species Me3PbNCS was detected and the related stability constant evaluated. Evidence of formation into the resin phase of the anionic Me3Pb(NCS) species was obtained.

Ion-exchange high-performance liquid chromatography of nucleotides and polypeptides on new types of ion-exchange sorbents, based on polystyrene-coate…

1991

A novel type of ion exchanger was prepared by multipoint covalent binding of polystyrene chains onto the surface of porous silica followed by polymer-analogous modification of the bonded layer. Both anion and cation exchangers were synthesized and examined in the separation of nucleotides and proteins. Rapid and efficient separation of basic polypeptides on strong anion exchangers and that of acidic polypeptides on strong cation exchangers could be achieved. For the separation of complete mixtures of polypeptides the application of zwitter-ionic ion exchangers can be recommended.

Adsorption and separation of black liquor-derived phenol derivatives using anion exchange resins

2017

Abstract Kraft black liquor is the major waste stream of the paper pulping industry. This stream is usually directly incinerated in such facilities for energy production and recycling of the inorganic chemicals involved. However, lignin and other low molecular organic fragments dissolved in black liquor give rise to a large variety of aromatic fine chemicals. Energetic use of black liquor and its components prevents the removal of these valuable compounds from the waste stream. We present an easy protocol for adsorption and selective desorption of low molecular phenol derivatives from black liquor depending on the composition of the desorption system. Furthermore, adsorption experiments in …

The influence of an ion-exchange resin on the kinetics of hydration of tricalcium silicate

2010

The addition of a finely-ground ion-exchange resin makes it possible to modify the hydration kinetics of C3S pastes. Analyses of the liquid phase in pastes and more dilute suspensions show that the resin exchanges calcium ions for sodium ions very rapidly during the early stage of hydration and therefore the concentration of silica in solution increases. The resin impacts the hydration of C3S by other mechanisms which depends on the resin quantity added. For a high resin quantity, the induction period is very short, but the longer-term hydration is enhanced compared to a reference sample without resin. We hypothesize that the surface of the resin can provide sites for the nucleation and gro…

Ion-exchange fibers and drugs: a transient study.

2003

The objective of this study was to theoretically model and experimentally measure the kinetics and extent of drug release from different ion-exchange materials using an in-house-designed flow-cell. Ion-exchange fibers (staple fibers and fiber cloth) were compared with commercially available ion-exchange materials (resins and gels). The functional ion-exchange groups in all the materials were weak -COOH or strong -SO3H groups. The rate and extent of drug release from the fibers (staple fiber>fiber cloth) was much higher than that from the resin or the gel. An increase in the hydrophilicity of the model drugs resulted in markedly higher rates of drug release from the fibers (nadolol>metoprolo…

Synthetic transformation of hydroxymatairesinol from Norway spruce (Picea abies) to 7-hydroxysecoisolariciresinol, (+)-lariciresinol and (+)-cyclolar…

2003

We have developed a method for the transformation of hydroxymatairesinol to optically pure (+)-lariciresinol and (+)-cyclolariciresinol via the hitherto unreported lignan 7-hydroxysecoisolariciresinol. The two naturally occurring isomers of hydroxymatairesinol were reduced with LiAlH4 to a mixture of two epimers of 7-hydroxysecoisolariciresinol, which were further selectively transformed to (+)-lariciresinol and (+)-cyclolariciresinol by an acid catalysed intramolecular cyclisation reaction. The structure of the major isomer of 7-hydroxysecoisolariciresinol was confirmed by X-ray crystallography and thereby also the absolute configurations of the two isomers of hydroxymatairesinol were unam…
