Ultraviolet protection of Bacillus thuringiensis through microencapsulation with Pickering emulsion method

Pickering emulsion templated interfacial atom transfer radical polymerization for microencapsulation.

This Article describes a new microencapsulation method based on a Pickering emulsion templated interfacial atom transfer radical polymerization (PETI-ATRP). Cationic LUDOX CL nanoparticles were coated electrostatically with an anionic polymeric ATRP initiator, poly(sodium styrene sulfonate-co-2-(2-bromoisobutyryloxy)ethyl methacrylate) (PSB), prepared by radical copolymerization of sodium styre...

Advanced Core-Shell Composite Nanoparticles Through Pickering Emulsion Polymerization

Molecular imprinting of protein in Pickering emulsion.

A new strategy of molecular imprinting to prepare spherical hydrogels via water-in-oil Pickering emulsion polymerization was developed. The imprinted hydrogels exhibited fast adsorption kinetics and significant selectivity for the target protein.

Material : Aging mechanism in model Pickering emulsion

The chemicals used for the NPs synthesis are TetraEthylOrthoSilicate (TEOS), l-Arginine, chloride acid 0.1M and ethanol. They were supplied by Aldrich and used as received. High-purity deionized water (18.2 M.cm) was produced using Millipore Milli-Q Gradient system. The synthesis follows the same protocol as in our previous work [1]. It is performed in a 2000 ml reactor thermostated with hot wa...

Pickering Emulsion-Based Marbles for Cellular Capsules

The biodegradable cellular capsule, being prepared from simple vaporization of liquid marbles, is an ideal vehicle for the potential application of drug encapsulation and release. This paper reports the fabrication of cellular capsules via facile vaporization of Pickering emulsion marbles in an ambient atmosphere. Stable Pickering emulsion (water in oil) was prepared while utilizing dichloromet...
