Layer-by-layer surface modification of lipid nanocapsules.

چکیده
Lipid nanocapsules (LNCs) were modified by adsorbing sequentially dextran sulfate (DS) and chitosan (CS) on their surface by the layer-by-layer (LBL) approach. Tangential flow filtration (TFF) was used in intermediate purifications of the LNC dispersion during the LBL process. The surface modification was based on electrostatic interactions between the coating polyelectrolytes (PEs) and the LNCs. Therefore, a cationic surfactant, lipochitosan (LC), was synthesised by coupling stearic anhydride on chitosan, and the surface of LNCs was first modified by this LC by the post-insertion technique. The PEs could be successfully adsorbed on the LNC surface as verified by alternating zeta potential and increase in size. To present a therapeutic application, fondaparinux sodium (FP), a heparin-like synthetic pentasaccharide, was introduced on the LNC surface instead of DS.

Synthetic ion channels via self-assembly: a route for embedding porous polyoxometalate nanocapsules in lipid bilayer membranes.
Porous polyoxometalate nanocapsules of Keplerate type are known to exhibit the functionality of biological ion channels; however, their use as an artificial ion channel is tempered by the high negative charge of the capsules, which renders their spontaneous incorporation into a lipid bilayer membrane unlikely. In this Letter we report coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations that demonstra...

متن کاملSurface modification for titanium implants by hydroxyapatite nanocomposite
Background: Titanium (Ti) implants are commonly coated with hydroxyapatite (HA). However, HA has some disadvantages such as brittleness, low tensile strength and fracture toughness. It is desirable to combine the excellent mechanical properties of ZrO2 and the chemical inertness of Al2O3 with respect to the purpose of this project which was coating Ti implants with HA-ZrO2-Al2O3 to modify the s...

Here we introduce a new approach for transcutaneous drug delivery, using microneedles coated with stabilized lipid nanocapsules, for delivery of a model vaccine formulation. Poly(lactide-co-glycolide) microneedle arrays were coated with multilayer films via layer-by-layer assembly of a biodegradable cationic poly(β-amino ester) (PBAE) and negatively charged interbilayer-cross-linked multilamell...

Layer-by-Layer (LbL) is a method which can be used for nanoscale coating and surface functionalization of a material. LbL technique mainly uses the electrostatic attracting between charged materials (polyelectrolytes, nanoparticles, etc.) and an oppositely charged surface. In this study, protein separation (BSA) from lactose solution was carried out using the LbL self-assembly method, which was...
