1. Synthesis and characterization of PANI and PANI-indole copolymer and study of their antimalarial and antituberculosis activity.
PMID:日期:2023-06-06The preparation of polyaniline (PANI) and its copolymer with indole involved a chemical oxidative polymerization method, with benzene sulfonic acid (BSA, CHOS) used as a dopant and potassium persulfate (PPS, KSO) as an oxidant. The synthesized compounds underwent characterization using FTIR, 1H-NMR, TGA, and GPC techniques, which allowed the calculation of their average molecular weight and polydispersity index (PDI) through the GPC technique. The PDI values of the PANI copolymer with indole in different aniline-to-indole ratios were 1.53, 1.13, and 1.532 for 1:1, 1:2, and 2:1 ratios, respectively. Thermal stability was determined using TGA, revealing that the indole heterocyclic compound increased the inflexibility of the polymer chains in the synthesized PANI copolymer. The structure of the copolymer was further analyzed using HNMR and FTIR techniques, which confirmed the existence of benzenoid and quinoid groups in the PANI-indole copolymers, as well as the effect of doping on the polymer chains. The antibacterial and antifungal properties of the copolymers were studied against several bacterial and fungal strains and measured in terms of minimum inhibitory concentration. Results indicated that the inhibition rate of the PANI-indole copolymer on (MTCC 442) was higher than that of standard drugs and individual PANI. The PANI-indole copolymers also displayed excellent antituberculosis and antimalarial activities, with the synthesized copolymer showing better outcomes than individual PANI.

2. Electrospinning in personal protective equipment for healthcare work.
PMID:日期:2023-05-14Protection in many service areas is mandatory for good performance in daily activities of workers, especially health areas. Personal protective equipment (PPE) is used to protect patients and health workers from contamination by harmful pathogens and body fluids during clinical attendance. The pandemic scenario caused by SARS-CoV-2 has shown that the world is not prepared to face global disease outbreaks, especially when it comes to the PPE of healthcare workers. In the last years, the world has faced a deficiency in the development of advanced technologies to produce high-quality PPE to attend to the exponential increasing demand. Electrospinning is a technology that can be used to produce high-quality PPE by improving the protective action of clothing. In the face of this concern, this manuscript presents as focus the potential of electrospinning to be applied in protective clothing. PPE mostly used by healthcare workers are also presented. The physico-chemical characteristics and production processes of medical textiles for PPE are addressed. Furthermore, an overview of the electrospinning technique is shown. It is important to highlight most research about electrospinning applied to PPE for health areas presents gaps and challenges; thus, future projections are also addressed in this manuscript.

3. Pre-polymerization process simulation, synthesis and investigation the properties of dipicolinic acid molecularly imprinted polymers.
PMID:日期:2023-04-07Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have attracted much attention in recent years due to their structure predictability, recognition specificity, and universal application, as well as robustness, simplicity, and cheapness. In this study, firstly, the pre-polymerization process of molecularly imprinted polymer of dipicolinic acid (DPA) was simulated by molecular dynamics. Then, the appropriate functional monomer molecule for printing was selected and its intermolecular bond with the DPA molecule was evaluated. The monomers 2-vinyl pyridine, acrylic acid (AA), and methacrylic acid (MAA) were selected with potential energies of 3.93 kcal/mol, 3.15 kcal/mol, and 2.78 kcal/mol, respectively. Finally, the ability of functional groups to form hydrogen bonds was estimated, and molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) and non-imprinted polymers (NIPs) were synthesized by bulk polymerization. MAA and AA were used as functional monomers to identify DPA molecules. The morphology of MIP and NIP was investigated using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Their performance was evaluated in the absorption of DPA molecules and picolinic acid (PA) molecules and the printing factor of synthesis polymers. The results showed that fabricated MIPs can be used in the structure of sensors, and the synthesis process is a key factor that significantly affects the polymer properties. The MIP based on the AA monomer showed a higher adsorption rate/capacity and maximum printing factor than MAA monomer-based MIP.

4. A clinical perspective of chitosan nanoparticles for infectious disease management.
PMID:日期:2023-04-05Infectious diseases and their effective management are still a challenge in this modern era of medicine. Diseases, such as the SARS-CoV-2, Ebola virus, and Zika virus, still put human civilization at peril. Existing drug banks, which include antivirals, antibacterial, and small-molecule drugs, are the most advocated method for treatment, although effective but they still flounder in many instances. This calls for finding more effective alternatives for tackling the menace of infectious diseases. Nanoformulations are progressively being implemented for clinical translation and are being considered a new paradigm against infectious diseases. Natural polymers like chitosan are preferred to design nanoparticles owing to their biocompatibility, biodegradation, and long shelf-life. The chitosan nanoparticles (CNPs) being highly adaptive delivers contemporary prevention for infectious diseases. Currently, they are being used as antibacterial, drug, and vaccine delivery vehicles, and wound-dressing materials, for infectious disease treatment. Although the recruitment of CNPs in clinical trials associated with infectious diseases is minimal, this may increase shortly due to the sudden emergence of unknown pathogens like SARS-CoV-2, thus turning them into a panacea for the management of microorganisms. This review particularly focuses on the all-around application of CNPs along with their recent clinical applications in infectious disease management.

5. Reflections on food security and smart packaging.
PMID:日期:2023-02-23Estimating the number of COVID-19 cases in 2020 exacerbated the food contamination and food supply issues. These problems make consumers more concerned about food and the need to access accurate information on food quality. One of the main methods for preserving the quality of food commodities for export, storage, and finished products is food packaging itself. In the food industry, food packaging has a significant role in the food supply which acts as a barrier against unwanted substances and preserves the quality of the food. Meanwhile, packaging waste can also harm the environment; namely, it can become waste in waterways or become garbage that accumulates because it is nonrenewable and nonbiodegradable. The problem of contaminated food caused by product packaging is also severe. Therefore, to overcome these challenges of safety, environmental impact, and sustainability, the role of food packaging becomes very important and urgent. In this review, the authors will discuss in more detail about new technologies applied in the food industry related to packaging issues to advance the utilization of Smart Packaging and Active Packaging.

6. A comprehensive review on recent advances in preparation, physicochemical characterization, and bioengineering applications of biopolymers.
PMID:日期:2023-01-01Biopolymers are mainly the polymers which are created or obtained from living creatures such as plants and bacteria rather than petroleum, which has traditionally been the source of polymers. Biopolymers are chain-like molecules composed of repeated chemical blocks derived from renewable resources that may decay in the environment. The usage of biomaterials is becoming more popular as a means of reducing the use of non-renewable resources and reducing environmental pollution produced by synthetic materials. Biopolymers' biodegradability and non-toxic nature help to maintain our environment clean and safe. This study discusses how to improve the mechanical and physical characteristics of biopolymers, particularly in the realm of bioengineering. The paper begins with a fundamental introduction and progresses to a detailed examination of synthesis and a unique investigation of several recent focused biopolymers with mechanical, physical, and biological characterization. Biopolymers' unique non-toxicity, biodegradability, biocompatibility, and eco-friendly features are boosting their applications, especially in bioengineering fields, including agriculture, pharmaceuticals, biomedical, ecological, industrial, aqua treatment, and food packaging, among others, at the end of this paper. The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of the relevance of biopolymers in smart and novel bioengineering applications. The Graphical abstract represents the biological sources and applications of biopolymers. Plants, bacteria, animals, agriculture wastes, and fossils are all biological sources for biopolymers, which are chemically manufactured from biological monomer units, including sugars, amino acids, natural fats and oils, and nucleotides. Biopolymer modification (chemical or physical) is recognized as a crucial technique for modifying physical and chemical characteristics, resulting in novel materials with improved capabilities and allowing them to be explored to their full potential in many fields of application such as tissue engineering, drug delivery, agriculture, biomedical, food industries, and industrial applications.

7. Synthesis of calcium carbonate-quince bio-composite for programmed and on-demand drug release of paracetamol at target site: a green chemistry approach.
PMID:日期:2023-01-01In this study, an inorganic-organic composite system was developed through biomineralization of calcium carbonate in the quince-seed mucilage-based hydrogel. Drug-polymer interactions were studied by FTIR, DSC, XRD and SEM analysis. The water absorption capacity was calculated by swelling index. Drug release was determined at various pH. Several in vitro kinetic models were applied to observe drug release behaviour. Studies of drug-polymer interactions and particle flow characteristics of the developed composite material have shown that there is good compatibility between drug and the excipients. The XRD and SEM results confirmed calcite polymorphs in the developed composite material. Thermograms showed that the developed composite material was heat stable. A restricted drug release was observed in an acidic medium (pH 1.2). A controlled drug release was depicted from the developed system at pH 6.8. The drug release mechanism of Super Case II was suggested. The developed system was considered to be an effective drug carrier for colon targeted oral delivery of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to avoid gastric irritation and risk of ulceration.

8. Fabrication and evaluation of electrospun polyacrylonitrile/silver nanofiber membranes for air filtration and antibacterial activity.
PMID:日期:2023-01-01Particulate matter and airborne microorganisms are two of the most severe indoor air problems due to their significant risks to human health. Comprehensive research on air filtration with good filtration performance for fine particles and antibacterial function is essential. In this study, after some experimentations and optimization of conditions, polyacrylonitrile (PAN) 10-1% silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) membranes with suitable morphology and uniform diameter distribution are fabricated by an electrospinning method. These electrospun mats exhibited antibacterial activity toward (Gram-positive bacteria) and (Gram-negative bacteria). With its small pore size, high porosity, the high specific surface area of 42 m/g, and robust mechanical strength of 7.14 MPa properties, the resultant PAN10%-1%Ag membranes exhibit high filtration efficiency of 99.27%, the low pressure drop of 33 Pa, and higher quality factor compared to the two standard commercial masks including, the three-ply surgical mask and the respirator face mask. After 24 h of the filtration process in a simulated living environment, the obtained air filter still displayed a high filtration efficiency and a less pressure drop variation. In addition, the value was 0.99, which indicates that the calculation results are in good agreement with the measured results. The fabrication of PAN-Ag membranes will have broad applications, including face masks, indoor air filtration and clean room.

9. Chitosan-organosilica hybrid decorated with silver nanoparticles for antimicrobial wearable cotton fabrics.
PMID:日期:2023-01-01Functional cotton fabrics using silver-based nanoparticles (AgNPs) have attracted a lot of attention as a new generation of healthcare wearable textile. In this study, cotton fabrics were coated via impregnation with silver nanoparticles using chitosan (Cs) and (or) chitosan-organosilica (Cs-OSH) solutions as adhesives matrices. The physicochemical properties were studied using UV-VIS spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscope coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy methods (SEM-EDX). The antibacterial activity of the silver-treated fabrics was determined using agar diffusion method. However, nanosize spherical AgNPs were observed in Cs and Cs-OSH solution. The average particle diameter was around 10 nm for Cs/AgNPs sample and close 21 nm for Cs-OSH/AgNPs. Microscopy images showed the deposition of Ag NPs on the surface of cotton fibers. The results indicated that the cotton fibers treated with Cs-OSH/AgNPs solution showed good stability against washing and maintained higher antimicrobial activity even after being exposed to 10 consecutive home laundering conditions. Thus, this work suggests the use of chitosan-organosilicon matrix to improve the bonding between AgNPs and cotton fibers for better and long-term antimicrobial activity.

10. A review on the limitations of natural fibres and natural fibre composites with emphasis on tensile strength using coir as a case study.
PMID:日期:2023-01-01Natural fibres such as coir, jute, flax, and hemp have been considered for technical applications. These fibres, though with some desirable qualities such as low density and environmental compatibility, possess the common property of non-uniformity along their length and, as a result, variable diameter and variable cross-sectional area. Several other factors, such as gauge length, fibre species and origin, strain rate, method of extraction of the fibres, porosity and pore size distribution, have been identified to influence the tensile strength of natural fibres and limit their applications in composites. Besides, several authors have used different diameters for the same type of natural fibre, such as coir, resulting in significant inconsistency in the tensile properties. For the same type of coir fibre, and from tensile strength reports from ten authors, an average tensile strength of 120.97 ± 42.30 MPa was obtained. The average number of fibres used in most cases for the tensile test was less than the requirement for natural fibres. All these factors were addressed with the aim of improving the overall properties of natural fibres and their composites.
