Preparation of Highly Dispersed Reduced Graphene Oxide Modified with Carboxymethyl Chitosan for Highly Sensitive Detection of Trace Cu(II) in Water.

ABSTRACT: In this article, reduced graphene oxide (RGO)/carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) composites (RGO/CMC) were synthesized by a hydrothermal method through in-situ reduction and modification of graphene oxide (GO) in the presence of CMC. An electrochemical sensor for the determination of Cu(II) by differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV) was constructed by an electrode modified with RGO/CMC. The fabricated electrochemical sensor shows a linear range of 0.02?1.2 ?mol·L^-1, a detection limit of 3.25 nmol·L^-1 (S/N = 3) and a sensitivity of 130.75 ?A·?mol·L^-1·cm^-2, indicating the sensor has an excellent detection performance for Cu(II).

Enhanced bioactivity and osteoinductivity of carboxymethyl chitosan/nanohydroxyapatite/graphene oxide nanocomposites.

Project description:Tissue engineering approaches combine a bioscaffold with stem cells to provide biological substitutes that can repair bone defects and eventually improve tissue functions. The prospective bioscaffold should have good osteoinductivity. Surface chemical and roughness modifications are regarded as valuable strategies for developing bioscaffolds because of their positive effects on enhancing osteogenic differentiation. However, the synergistic combination of the two strategies is currently poorly studied. In this work, a nanoengineered scaffold with surface chemistry (oxygen-containing groups) and roughness (R q = 74.1 nm) modifications was fabricated by doping nanohydroxyapatite (nHA), chemically crosslinked graphene oxide (GO) and carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC). The biocompatibility and osteoinductivity of the nanoengineered CMC/nHA/GO scaffold was evaluated in vitro and in vivo, and the osteogenic differentiation mechanism of the nanoengineered scaffold was preliminarily investigated. Our data demonstrated that the enhanced osteoinductivity of CMC/nHA/GO may profit from the surface chemistry and roughness, which benefit the β1 integrin interactions with the extracellular matrix and activate the FAK-ERK signaling pathway to upregulate the expression of osteogenic special proteins. This study indicates that the nanocomposite scaffold with surface chemistry and roughness modifications could serve as a novel and promising bone substitute for tissue engineering.

Carboxymethyl Chitosan and Its Hydrophobically Modified Derivative as pH-Switchable Emulsifiers.

Project description:The emulsification properties of carboxymethyl chitosan (CMChi) and hydrophobically modified carboxymethyl chitosan (h-CMChi) were studied as a function of pH and dodecane/water ratio. The pH was varied between 6-10, and the oil/water ratio between 0.1-2.0. In CMChi solution, the emulsion stability increased as the pH was lowered from 10 to 7, and the phase inversion was shifted from oil/water ratio 1.0 to 1.8, respectively. The system behaved differently in pH 6 due to the aggregation of CMChi and the formation of nanoparticles (∼200-300 nm). No phase inversion was observed and the maximum amount of emulsified oil was reached at oil/water ratio 1.2. The h-CMChi showed similar behavior as a function of pH but, due to hydrophobic modification, the phase inversion was shifted to higher values in pH 7-10. In pH 6, the behavior was similar, but the maximum amount of emulsified oil was higher compared to CMChi. The amount of adsorbed particles correlated with the emulsified amount of oil. Reversible emulsification of dodecane was demonstrated by pH adjustment using CMChi and h-CMChi solutions. The formed emulsions were gel-like, suggesting particle-particle interaction.

Control and Preparation of Quaternized Chitosan and Carboxymethyl Chitosan Nanoscale Polyelectrolyte Complexes Based on Reactive Flash Nanoprecipitation.

Project description:Nanoscale polyelectrolyte complex materials have been extensively investigated for their promising application in protocell, drug carriers, imaging, and catalysis. However, the conventional preparation approach involving positive and negative polyelectrolytes leads to large size, wide size distribution, instability, and aggregation due to the nonhomogeneous mixing process. Herein, we employ reactive flash nanoprecipitation (RFNP) to control the mixing and preparation of the nanoscale polyelectrolyte complex. With RFNP, homogeneous mixing complexation between oppositely charged chitosan derivatives could be achieved, resulting in stable nanoscale complexes (NCs) with controllable size and narrow size distribution. The smallest size of NCs is found at specific pH due to the maximum attraction of positive and negative molecules of chitosan. The size can be modulated by altering the volumetric flow rates of inlet streams, concentration, and charge molar ratio of two oppositely charged chitosan derivatives. The charge molar ratio is also tuned to create NCs with positive and negative shells. There is no significant variation in the size of NCs produced at different intervals of time. This method allows continuous and tunable NC production and could have the potential for fast, practical translation.

Highly sensitive glucose sensors based on enzyme-modified whole-graphene solution-gated transistors.

Project description:Noninvasive glucose detections are convenient techniques for the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus, which require high performance glucose sensors. However, conventional electrochemical glucose sensors are not sensitive enough for these applications. Here, highly sensitive glucose sensors are successfully realized based on whole-graphene solution-gated transistors with the graphene gate electrodes modified with an enzyme glucose oxidase. The sensitivity of the devices is dramatically improved by co-modifying the graphene gates with Pt nanoparticles due to the enhanced electrocatalytic activity of the electrodes. The sensing mechanism is attributed to the reaction of H2O2 generated by the oxidation of glucose near the gate. The optimized glucose sensors show the detection limits down to 0.5 μM and good selectivity, which are sensitive enough for non-invasive glucose detections in body fluids. The devices show the transconductances two orders of magnitude higher than that of a conventional silicon field effect transistor, which is the main reason for their high sensitivity. Moreover, the devices can be conveniently fabricated with low cost. Therefore, the whole-graphene solution-gated transistors are a high-performance sensing platform for not only glucose detections but also many other types of biosensors that may find practical applications in the near future.

Preparation of Silk Fibroin/Carboxymethyl Chitosan Hydrogel under Low Voltage as a Wound Dressing.

Project description:At present, silk fibroin (SF) hydrogel can be prepared by means of electrodeposition at 25 V in direct current (DC) mode. Reducing the applied voltage would provide benefits, including lower fabrication costs, less risk of high voltage shocks, and better stability of devices. Here, a simple but uncommon strategy for SF-based hydrogel preparation using 4 V in DC mode is discussed. SF was mixed and cross-linked with carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) through hydrogen bonding, then co-deposited on the graphite electrode. The thickness, mass, and shape of the SF/CMCS hydrogel were easily controlled by adjusting the electrodeposition parameters. Morphological characterization of the prepared hydrogel via SEM revealed a porous network within the fabricated hydrogel. This structure was due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding between SF and CMCS, according to the results of thermogravimetric analysis and rheological measurements. As a potential wound dressing, SF/CMCS hydrogel maintained a suitable moisture environment for wound healing and demonstrated distinct properties in terms of promoting the proliferation of HEK-293 cells and antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Furthermore, histological studies were conducted on a full-thickness skin wound in rats covered with the SF/CMCS hydrogel, with results indicating that this hydrogel can promote wound re-epithelization and enhance granulation tissue formation. These results illustrate the feasibility of using the developed strategy for SF-based hydrogel fabrication in practice for wound dressing.

A 3D Chemically Modified Graphene Hydrogel for Fast, Highly Sensitive, and Selective Gas Sensor.

Project description:Reduced graphene oxide (RGO) has proved to be a promising candidate in high-performance gas sensing in ambient conditions. However, trace detection of different kinds of gases with simultaneously high sensitivity and selectivity is challenging. Here, a chemiresistor-type sensor based on 3D sulfonated RGO hydrogel (S-RGOH) is reported, which can detect a variety of important gases with high sensitivity, boosted selectivity, fast response, and good reversibility. The NaHSO3 functionalized RGOH displays remarkable 118.6 and 58.9 times higher responses to NO2 and NH3, respectively, compared with its unmodified RGOH counterpart. In addition, the S-RGOH sensor is highly responsive to volatile organic compounds. More importantly, the characteristic patterns on the linearly fitted response-temperature curves are employed to distinguish various gases for the first time. The temperature of the sensor is elevated rapidly by an imbedded microheater with little power consumption. The 3D S-RGOH is characterized and the sensing mechanisms are proposed. This work gains new insights into boosting the sensitivity of detecting various gases by combining chemical modification and 3D structural engineering of RGO, and improving the selectivity of gas sensing by employing temperature dependent response characteristics of RGO for different gases.

Facile preparation of antibacterial hydrogel with multi-functions based on carboxymethyl chitosan and oligomeric procyanidin.

Project description:Hydrogel-based antibacterial materials with multi-functions are of great significance for healthcare. Herein, a facile and one-step method was developed to fabricate an injectable hydrogel (named CMCS/OPC hydrogel) based on carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) and oligomeric procyanidin (OPC). In this hydrogel system, OPC serves as the dynamic crosslinker to bridge CMCS macromolecules mainly through dynamical hydrogen bonds, which endows this hydrogel with excellent injectable, self-healing, and adhesive abilities. In addition, due to the inherent antibacterial properties of CMCS and OPC, this hydrogel shows excellent antibacterial activity. Therefore, the well-designed CMCS/OPC hydrogel has great prospects as an antibacterial material in the biomedical field.

PAA Modified Upconversion Nanoparticles for Highly Selective and Sensitive Detection of Cu2+ Ions.

Project description:Detection of the Cu2+ ions is crucial because of its environmental and biological implications. The fluorescent-based organic sensors are not suitable for Cu2+ detection due to their short penetration depth caused by the UV/visible excitation source. Therefore, we have demonstrated a highly sensitive and selective near-infrared (NIR) excitable poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) coated upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) based sensor for Cu2+ detection. We construct the PAA modified Na(Yb, Nd)F4@Na(Yb, Gd)F4:Tm@NaGdF4 core-shell-shell structured UCNPs based sensor via a co-precipitation route. The upconversion emission intensity of the PAA-UCNPs decreases linearly with the increase in the Cu2+ concentration from 0.125 to 3.125 μM due to the copper carboxylate complex formation between Cu2+ and PAA-UCNPs. The calculated detection limit of the PAA-UCNPs based sensor is 0.1 μM. The PAA-UCNPs based sensor is very sensitive and selective toward detecting the Cu2+ ions, even when the Cu2+ co-exist with other metal ions. The EDTA addition has significantly reversed the upconversion emission quenching by forming the EDTA-Cu2+ complex based on their greater affinity toward the Cu2+. Therefore, the PAA-UCNPs based sensor can be a promising candidate for Cu2+ detection because of their higher sensitivity and selectivity under 980 nm NIR excitation.

Carboxymethyl Chitosan Modified Oxymatrine Liposomes for the Alleviation of Emphysema in Mice via Pulmonary Administration.

Project description:Pulmonary emphysema is a fatal lung disease caused by the progressive thinning, enlargement and destruction of alveoli that is closely related to inflammation and oxidative stress. Oxymatrine (OMT), as a bioactive constituent of traditional Chinese herbal Sophora flavescens, has great potential to alleviate pulmonary emphysema via its anti-inflammatory and antioxidative activities. Pulmonary administration is the most preferable way for the treatment of lung diseases. To improve the in vivo stability and pulmonary retention of OMT, OMT-loaded liposome with carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) modification was developed. The CMCS was modified on the surface of OMT liposomes via electrostatic attraction and covalent conjugation to obtain Lipo/OMT@CMCS and CMCS-Lipo/OMT, respectively. A porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE)-induced emphysema mice model was established to evaluate the alleviation effects of OMT on alveolar expansion and destruction. CMCS-modified liposomal OMT exhibited superior ameliorative effects on emphysema regardless of the preparation methods, and higher sedimentation and longer retention in the lung were observed in the CMCS-Lipo group. The mechanisms of OMT on emphysema were related to the downregulation of inflammatory cytokines and the rebalancing of antioxidant/oxidation via the Nrf2/HO-1 and NF-κB/IκB-α signaling pathways, leading to reduced cell apoptosis. Moreover, the OMT liposomal preparations further enhanced its anti-inflammatory and antioxidative effects. In conclusion, pulmonary administration of OMT is a potential strategy for the treatment of emphysema and the therapeutic effects can be further improved by CMCS-modified liposomes.

Preparation of modified Jiuzao glutelin isolate with carboxymethyl chitosan by ultrasound-stirring assisted Maillard reaction and its protective effect of loading resveratrol/quercetin in nano-emulsion.

Project description:Jiuzao glutelin isolate (JGI) was reported to possess interface and functional properties. To enhance the stability and properties of JGI, conjugation between JGI and carboxymethyl chitosan (CTS) through ultrasound-stirring assisted Maillard reaction (UTSA-MR) was investigated and optimized. The changes of molecular distribution, secondary structure, morphology, and amino acid composition of JGI were detected after conjugation with CTS. The solubility, foaming property and stability, viscosity, and thermal stability of four conjugates (CTS-JGI, with weight ratios of 0.5:1, 1:1, 2:1, and 4:1) were significantly increased compared to native JGI. Under the optimal glycation, the conjugate (CTS/JGI, 2:1, w/w; CTS-JGI-2) exhibited the best emulsifying ability and stability against NaCl solution, in vitro antioxidant activity, and cholesterol-lowering ability. CTS-JGI-2 stabilized oil-in-water nano-emulsion improved resveratrol (RES) and quercetin (QUE) encapsulation efficiency (80.96% for RES and 93.13% for QUE) and stability during the simulated digestion process (73.23% for RES and 77.94% for QUE) due to the connection through hydrogen bonds, pi-anion, pi-sigma, and donors between CTS-JGI and RES/QUE. Taken together, the modification of JGI by conjugating with CTS through UTSA-MR could be an excellent method to improve the functional properties of JGI. CTS-JGI-2 is a potential conjugate with functions that can be used to encapsulate functional substances in the stabilized nano-emulsion.
