Catalyzed ester synthesis using Candida rugosa lipase entrapped by poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-itaconic acid) hydrogel.

ABSTRACT: This study reports the synthesis of polymeric matrices based on N-isopropylacrylamide and itaconic acid and its application for immobilization of lipase from Candida rugosa. The lipase was immobilized by entrapment method. Free and immobilized lipase activities, pH and temperature optima, and storage stability were investigated. The optimum temperature for free and entrapped lipase was found to be 40 and 45 °C, while the optimum pH was observed at pH 7 and 8, respectively. Both hydrolytic activity in an aqueous medium and esterolytic activity in an organic medium have been evaluated. Maximum reaction rate (V max) and Michaelis-Menten constants (K m ) were also determined for immobilized lipase. Storage stability of lipase was increased as a result of immobilization process. Furthermore, the operational stability and reusability of the immobilized lipase in esterification reaction have been studied, and it was observed that after 10 cycles, the residual activity for entrapped lipase was as high as 50%, implying that the developed hydrogel and immobilized system could provide a promising solution for the flavor ester synthesis at the industrial scale.

Stimuli-sensitive hydrogel based on N-isopropylacrylamide and itaconic acid for entrapment and controlled release of Candida rugosa lipase under mild conditions.

Project description:Stimuli responsive pH- and temperature-sensitive hydrogel drug delivery systems, as those based on N-isopropylacrylamide (NiPAAm) and itaconic acid (IA), have been attracting much of the attention of the scientific community nowadays, especially in the field of drug release. By adjusting comonomer composition, the matrix is enabled to protect the incorporated protein in the highly acidic environment of upper gastrointestinal tract and deliver it in the neutral or slightly basic region of the lower intestine. The protein/poly(NiPAAm-co-IA) hydrogels were synthetized by free radical crosslinking copolymerization and were characterized concerning their swelling capability, mechanical properties, and morphology. The pore structure and sizes up to 1.90?nm allowed good entrapment of lipase molecules. Model protein, lipase from Candida rugosa, was entrapped within hydrogels upon mild conditions that provided its protection from harmful environmental influences. The efficiency of the lipase entrapment reached 96.7%, and was dependent on the initial concentration of lipase solution. The swelling of the obtained hydrogels in simulated pH and temperature of gastrointestinal tract, the lipase entrapment efficiency, and its release profiles from hydrogels were investigated as well.

Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) Hydrogel for Diving/Surfacing Device.

Project description:Underwater robots and vehicles have received great attention due to their potential applications in remote sensing and search and rescue. A challenge for micro aquatic robots is the lack of small motors needed for three-dimensional locomotion in water. Here, we show a simple diving and surfacing device fabricated from thermo-sensitive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) or a poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-containing hydrogel. The poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-containing device exhibited fast and reversible diving/surfacing cycles in response to changing temperature. Modulation of the interaction between poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) chains and water molecules at temperatures above or below the lower critical solution temperature regulates the gel density through the swelling and de-swelling. The gel surfaced in water when heated and sank when cooled. We further showed reversible diving/surfacing cycles of the device when exposed to electrical and ultrasonic stimuli. Finally, a small electrically heated gel was incorporated into a miniature submarine and used to control the diving depth. These results suggest that the poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-containing device has good potential for underwater remote-controlled micro aquatic robots.

Biocatalytic synthesis of flavor ester "pentyl valerate" using Candida rugosa lipase immobilized in microemulsion based organogels: effect of parameters and reusability.

Project description:Pentyl valerate was synthesized biocatalytically using Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) immobilized in microemulsion based organogels (MBGs). The optimum conditions were found to be pH 7.0, temperature of 37 °C, ratio of concentration of water to surfactant (Wo) of 60, and the surfactant sodium bis-2-(ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (AOT) for MBG preparation. Although kinetic studies revealed that the enzyme in free form had high affinity towards substrates (K(m) = 23.2 mM for pentanol and 76.92 mM for valeric acid) whereas, after immobilization, the K(m) values increased considerably (74.07 mM for pentanol and 83.3 mM for valeric acid) resulting in a slower reaction rate, the maximum conversion was much higher in case of immobilized enzyme (~99%) as compared to free enzyme (~19%). Simultaneous effects of important parameters were studied using response surface methodology (RSM) conjugated with Box-Behnken design (BBD) with five variables (process parameters), namely, enzyme concentration, initial water content (Wo), solvent used for MBG preparation, substrate ratio and time, and response as the final product formation, that is, pentyl valerate (%). The MBGs were reused for 10 consecutive cycles for ester synthesis. Efficacy of AOT/isooctane as dehydrating agent for extracting excess water from MBGs was found to exert a positive effect on the esterification reaction.

Exploring the binding interaction between copper ions and Candida rugosa lipase.

Project description:The wide range of applications of copper have caused widespread concern about its toxicity. However, few studies have reported the mechanism of the binding interaction between copper ions and digestive enzymes, which play an important role in physiological health and industrial production. In this study, the effects of copper ions on the conformation and activity of Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) were evaluated by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), multiple spectral techniques, molecular simulation and enzyme activity assays. The results showed that copper ions can be combined with lipase, the binding affinity constant (K) was (2.91 ± 0.619) × 10-3 M-1, the binding process was a spontaneous process, and the main force was the hydrophobic force. Rather than increasing the hydrophobicity of the amino acid microenvironment of CRL, the spectral methods demonstrated that copper can also make the protein peptide bond structure compact, changing its secondary structure. In addition, molecular simulation results showed that copper ions opened the "lid" of the CRL and entered the active center, which consequently changed the conformation of the CRL molecule. Structural changes may cause changes in enzyme activity. The increased activity of CRL with the addition of copper ions was verified by enzyme activity assay. In summary, copper showed an effect on CRL at the molecular level, which means its toxicity should receive more attention.

Thermally Tunable Acoustic Beam Splitter Based on Poly(vinyl alcohol) Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) Hydrogel.

Project description:In this study, we demonstrated a thermally tunable acoustic beam splitter using a poly(vinyl alcohol) poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) hydrogel (PVA-pNIPAM). The nature of PVA-pNIPAM hydrogel offers exceptional temperature-dependent physical properties due to its phase transition around its lower critical solution temperature. The acoustic impedance of the hydrogel can be tuned below, above, or matched to that of water by changing the environmental temperature. An acoustic wave propagating in water can be split into transmitted and reflected components by the PVA-pNIPAM hydrogel slab on varying its angle of incidence. The intensity ratio between the reflected and the transmitted componence can be adjusted by tuning the temperature of the medium. The acoustic beam can be entirely reflected at a temperature corresponding to the matched impedance between hydrogel and water. The beam-splitting behavior was observed for acoustic waves from both a monochromatic wave and broadband pulse source. In addition, the phase of beam split pulses can be reversed by selecting the hydrogel's operating temperature.

Fluorescence Modulation of Conjugated Polymer Nanoparticles Embedded in Poly(N-Isopropylacrylamide) Hydrogel.

Project description:A series of conjugated polymers (CPs) emitting red, green, and blue (RGB) fluorescence were synthesized via the Suzuki coupling polymerization. Polymer dots (Pdots) were fabricated by the reprecipitation method from corresponding CPs, in which the Pdot surface was functionalized to have an allyl moiety. The CP backbones were based on the phenylene group, causing the Pdots to show identical ultraviolet-visible absorption at 350 nm, indicating that the same excitation wavelength could be used. The Pdots were covalently embedded in poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) hydrogel for further use as a thermoresponsive moiety in the polymer hydrogel. The polymer hydrogel with RGB emission colors could provide thermally reversible fluorescence changes. The size of the hydrogel varied with temperature change because of the PNIPAM's shrinking and swelling. The swollen and contracted conformations of the Pdot-embedded PNIPAM enabled on-and-off fluorescence, respectively. Fluorescence modulation with 20 to 80% of the hydrogel was possible via thermoreversibility. The fluorescent hydrogel could be a new fluorescence-tuning hybrid material that changes with temperature.

Immobilisation of Candida rugosa lipase on a highly hydrophobic support: A stable immobilised lipase suitable for non-aqueous synthesis.

Project description:Lipase from Candida rugosa (CrL) was immobilised on highly hydrophobic, octadecyl methacrylate resin (Lifetech™ ECR8806M) via interfacial adsorption. The aim was to produce a stable biocatalyst suitable for use in a range of lipid-modifying reactions. Immobilisation was carried out in 10?mM phosphate buffer (pH 6.0) over 24?h at 21?°C. High protein binding of 58.7?±?4.9?mg/g dry support accounted for ?53 % of the applied protein. The activity recovery against tributyrin was 74.0?±?1.1 %. The specific activity of immobilised CrL against tributyrin was considerably higher than that of Novozym® 435, at 1.79?±?0.05 and 1.08?±?0.04?U/mg bound protein, respectively. Incubation with high concentrations (10 % w/v) of both Triton X-100 and SDS resulted in only a small reduction in immobilised lipase activity. Solvent-free synthesis of glycerides by the FFA-saturated immobilised CrL was successful over 6 reaction cycles, with no apparent loss of activity.

Mesenchylmal Stem Cell Culture on Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) Hydrogel with Repeated Thermo-Stimulation.

Project description:We prepared thermoresponsive hydrogels by mixing poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) derivatives as the main chain components, octa-arm polyethylene glycol (PEG) as a crosslinker, and the Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser (RGDS) peptides as cell adhesion units. Human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hbmMSCs) were cultured on the hydrogels. The PNIPAAm gel prepared by the post-crosslinking gelation method was revealed to be cytocompatible and showed temperature-dependent changes in mechanical properties. Repeated changes in the swelling ratio of the PNIPAAm gel affected the shape of the hbmMSCs. With respect to both cytocompatibility and reversibility of changes in mechanical properties, the PNIPAAm gel system could be potentially useful for the analysis of cell mechanobiology.

Straightforward Synthetic Protocol to Bio-BasedUnsaturated Poly(ester amide)s from Itaconic Acidwith Thixotropic Behavior.

Project description:In the field of polymer chemistry, tremendous efforts have been made over the lastdecade to replace petrochemical monomers with building blocks from renewable resources. In thisrespect, itaconic acid has been used as an alternative to acrylic acid or maleic acid in unsaturatedpolyesters for thermal or UV-curing applications. However, examples of poly(ester amide)s fromitaconic acid are scarce. Under standard polycondensation reactions, the presence of free aminesleads to aza-Michael addition reactions at the ?,?-unsaturated double bond of the itaconic acid andisomerization reactions to mesaconic acid. Both reactions make the resulting materials useless asUV-curing polymer resins. To avoid these undesired side reactions, we herein report the use ofpreformed, well-defined diols containing internal amide bonds. The resulting unsaturatedpoly(ester amide) resins were analyzed before and after UV-induced crosslinking. Viscositymeasurements revealed a strong thixotropic behavior induced by the amide groups, which isusually not detected in structurally similar polyester resins.
