Interactions between Food Additive Silica Nanoparticles and Food Matrices
Nanoparticles (NPs) have been widely utilized in the food industry as additives with their beneficial characteristics, such as improving sensory property and processing suitability, enhancing functional and nutritional values, and extending shelf-life of foods. Silica is used as an anti-caking agent to improve flow property of powered ingredients and as a carrier for flavors or active compounds...
متن کاملInterfacial interactions between natural RBC membranes and synthetic polymeric nanoparticles.
The unique structural features and stealth properties of a recently developed red blood cell membrane-cloaked nanoparticle (RBC-NP) platform raise curiosity over the interfacial interactions between natural cellular membranes and polymeric nanoparticle substrates. Herein, several interfacial aspects of the RBC-NPs are examined, including completeness of membrane coverage, membrane sidedness upo...
متن کاملGalactocerebroside-phospholipid interactions in bilayer membranes.
Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and x-ray diffraction have been used to study the interaction of hydrated N-palmitoylgalactosylsphingosine (NPGS) and dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC). For mixtures containing less than 23 mol% NPGS, complete miscibility of NPGS into hydrated DPPC bilayers is observed in both the bilayer gel and liquid-crystal phases. X-ray diffraction data demonstra...
متن کاملSoftening of phospholipid membranes by the adhesion of silica nanoparticles--as seen by neutron spin-echo (NSE).
The interactions between nanoparticles and vesicles are of significant interest both from a fundamental as well as from a practical point of view, as vesicles can serve as a model system for cell membranes. Accordingly the effect of nanoparticles that bind to the vesicle bilayer is very important with respect to understanding their biological impact and also may shed some light on the mechanism...
متن کاملInteractions of cyclosporin A with phospholipid membranes: effect of cholesterol.
Cyclosporin A (CsA) is a highly hydrophobic drug used to prevent graft rejection after organ transplantation. Interactions of CsA with phosphatidylcholine as well as with binary mixtures containing phosphatidylcholine and cholesterol were investigated by measuring the penetration of CsA into lipid monolayers at an air/water interface, by differential scanning calorimetry, and by imaging with fl...
