A voltammetric biosensor based on ionic liquid/NiO nanoparticle modified carbon paste electrode for the determination of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH)

Abstract: Herein we report a NiO/nanoparticles (NiO/NPs) modified carbon ionic liquid paste electrode (IL/NiO/NPs/CPE) was fabricated and used to investigate the electrochemical behavior of NADH in aqueous solution. The proposed sensor was prepared by mixing hydrophilic ionic liquid 1-methyl-3-butylimidazolium bromide, NiO/NPs, graphite powder and liquid paraffin together. The oxidation peak potential of NADH at the surface of the ionic liquid NiO/NPs carbon paste electrode appeared at 635 mV, which was about 70 mV lower than the oxidation peak potential at the surface of traditional carbon CPE under similar conditions. On other hand, the oxidation peak current was increased to about four times at the surface of IL/NiO/NPs/CPE compared to CPE. The linear response range and detection limit were found to be 0.03–900 μmol L−1 and 0.009 μmol L−1, respectively. IL/NiO/NPs/CPE was successfully applied for the determination of NADH in real samples such as water, serum and urine. The results showed that the proposed method is highly selective, sensitive with a fast response for NADH analysis.

ZnO nanoparticle-modified ionic liquid-carbon paste electrodefor voltammetric determination of folic acid in food and pharmaceutical samples

Abstract: In this work, a ZnO/nanoparticles (NPs) modified carbon ionic liquid paste electrode (ZnO/NP/CILPE) was fabricated and used to investigate the electrochemical behavior of folic acid. ZnO/NP/CILPE was prepared by mixing hydrophilic ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([C4mim]-[PF6])), ZnO/NPs, graphite powder, and liquid paraffin together. The fabricated ZnO/NP/CILPE showed great electrocatalytic ability to the oxidation of folic acid, and an irreversible oxidation peak appeared at 0.75 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) with improved peak current. Under the optimized conditions of pH 9.0, the plot of peak current vs. folic acid concentration consisted of two linear segments with slopes of 1.776and 0.033 μA/μM in the concentration ranges of 0.05–1.5 μM and 1.5–550.0 μM, respectively. The detection limit was 0.01 μM (3σ). The proposed sensor was successfully applied for the determination of folic acid in fortified food and pharmaceutical samples.

Preparation of a highly effective lubricating oil additive – ceria/graphene composite

Abstract: Graphene decorated with well-dispersed cubic fluorite ceria (CeO2) nanoparticles was prepared through a simple hydrothermal method. The as-prepared CeO2/graphene composites (COGNCs) were further used as lubricant additives in the base oil of liquid paraffin to investigate their tribological properties by the Optimol SRV-1 oscillating reciprocating friction and wear tests in air (relative humidity, 17%). The results indicated that the introduction of a small amount of COGNCs into the base oil could reduce friction and wear drastically under a high load condition, which was better than the testing results of graphene or CeO2 nanoparticles. Specifically, when 0.06 wt% COGNCs was added into the base oil, the average friction coefficient could be reduced from 0.21 to 0.10, and the wear rate could be decreased to 1.5% of that of base oil. The excellent tribological properties of COGNCs can be explained by the synergistic friction reduction and antiwear effects of graphene and CeO2 nanoparticles.

Fabrication of Multiwalled Carbon Nanotube/Polypropylene Conductive Fibrous Membranes by Melt Electrospinning

Abstract: A novel multiwalled carbon nanotube/polypropylene (CNT/PP) conductive fibrous membrane with fiber diameter of 1–3 μm was fabricated by melt electrospinning. To improve the dispersibility of CNT and enhance the spinnability of PP fibers, CNTs were first mixed with small amounts of paraffin liquid (PL) and then melt-blended with PP for melt electrospinning. The morphology of fibrous membranes and the orientation of CNTs in PP fibers were observed via scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM and TEM). The effect of PL and CNTs on crystallization behavior of PP was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Tensile test and impedance analysis were performed to investigate the mechanical and electrical properties of the fibrous membranes. The results indicated that CNT has a distinct nucleating effect on PP, and the addition of PL can improve the spinnability of the CNT/PP compound remarkably. This novel conductive fibrous membrane fabricated by melt electrospinni...

Emulsifying, flocculating, and physicochemical properties of exopolysaccharide produced by cyanobacterium Nostoc flagelliforme.

Abstract: The emulsifying, flocculating, and physicochemical properties of purified exopolysaccharide (EPS) of terrestrial cyanobacterium Nostoc flagelliforme cultured in liquid media were investigated. The EPS was defined as heteropolysaccharide composed by 41.2 % glucose, 21.1 % galactose, 21.0 % mannose, 2.5 % fructose, 3.6 % ribose, 1.7 % xylose, 0.6 % arabinose, 3.0 % rhamnose, 0.9 % fucose, and 4.3 % glucuronic acid. The EPS possessed higher intrinsic viscosity than other cyanobacterial strains as reported and displayed pseudoplastic behavior in aqueous solution. The EPS produced more stable emulsions with tested hydrocarbons and oils than xanthan gum, and the emulsification indexes with n-hexadecane, liquid paraffin, and peanut oil were higher than 50 %, indicating the strong emulsion-stabilizing capacity. The EPS showed peak flocculating rates of 93.5 and 86.1 % in kaolin and MgO suspension, respectively, and exhibited a better flocculation performance than Al2(SO4)3 and xanthan gum. These results demonstrated that the EPS of N. flagelliforme was a very promising candidate for numerous industrial applications, as it had higher intrinsic viscosity, good emulsification activity, and excellent flocculation capability.

Continuous oil–water separation with surface modified sponge for cleanup of oil spills

Abstract: A continuous in situ oil–water separation technique for cleanup of oil spills has been designed using surface modified polyurethane (PU) sponges as sorbents. By connecting PU sponges to a vacuum pump, they can continuously separate various kinds of oil and organic pollutant, including engine oil, diesel oil, peanut oil, liquid paraffin and hexane, from the surface of water with negligible water take-up. The sorbents used in the technique were prepared by dip-coating commercial PU sponges with TiO2 sol and n-octadecylthiol successively. After surface modification, the sponges change from hydrophilic to superhydrophobic and superoleophilic surface with the water contact angle measured to be 152°. The as-prepared sponges absorb a broad variety of oils and organic solvents with high oil absorption capacity (80–110 g g−1) and negligible water take-up at both static and dynamic conditions. The success of the continuous in situ oil–water separation technique is based on the excellent oil–water selectivity and oil adsorption capacity of the modified sponges.

Novel approach for attapulgite/poly(acrylic acid) (ATP/PAA) nanocomposite microgels as selective adsorbent for Pb(II) Ion

Abstract: A novel approach was developed for the preparation of the attapulgite/poly(acrylic acid) (ATP/PAA) nanocomposite microgels via the ‘‘one-pot’’ inverse suspension radical polymerization of acrylic acid (AA) with the multi-functionalized attapulgite nanorods (org-ATP) as the sole crosslinker. The parameters of the feeding ratio of the functional attapulgite (org-ATP) nanorods and AA (org-ATP/AA), oil (liquid paraffin)–water ratio, and feeding ratios of dispersing agent (sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS)) and initiator (ammonium persulfate (APS)) were optimized via 4-Variable 3-Level Orthogonal experiments. Under the optimized preparation condition, more than 85% of the monomer AA had been grafted onto the org-ATP nanorods to form the 3-dimensional network of the ATP/PAA nanocomposite microgel. The ATP/PAA nanocomposite microgel exhibited better mechanical stabilities (resistance to pressure and resistance to agitation) and selective adsorption to heavy metal ions, especially to Pb 2+ . The adsorbed Pb 2+ ion could be completely eluted with HCl solution. The better mechanical stability and regeneration make it potential adsorbent for the heavy metal contaminated water.

Hepatoprotective Effects of Silybum marianum (Silymarin) and Glycyrrhiza glabra (Glycyrrhizin) in Combination: A Possible Synergy.

Abstract: Oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation, and transaminase reactions are some of the mechanisms that can lead to liver dysfunction. A time-dependent study was designed to evaluate the ability of silymarin (SLN) and glycyrrhizin (GLN) in different dosage regimens to lessen oxidative stress in the rats with hepatic injury caused by the hepatotoxin carbon tetrachloride. Wistar male albino rats ( = 60) were randomly assigned to six groups. Group A served as a positive control while groups B, C, D, E, and F received a dose of CCl4 (50% solution of CCl4 in liquid paraffin, 2 mL/kg, intraperitoneally) twice a week to induce hepatic injury. Additionally, the animals received SLN and GLN in different doses for a period of six weeks. CCl4 was found to induce hepatic injury by significantly increasing serum alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances while decreasing total protein and the activities of reduced glutathione, superoxide dismutase, and catalase. Treatment with various doses of SLN and GLN significantly reduced ALT, AST, ALP, and TBARS levels and increased GSH, SOD, and CAT levels. Our findings indicated that SLN and GLN have hepatoprotective effects against oxidative stress of the liver.

Tribological studies of stearic acid-modified CaCu2.9Zn0.1Ti4O12nanoparticles as effective zero SAPS antiwear lubricant additives in paraffin oil

Abstract: Stearic acid modified ceramic nanoparticles SCCZTO-6 h, SCCZTO-8 h and SCCZTO-12 h of average sizes 60, 80 and 90 nm were prepared from CCZTO-6 h, CCZTO-8 h and CCZTO-12 h respectively (where CCZTO represents CaCu2.9Zn0.1Ti4O12; 6 h, 8 h and 12 h are the sintering times). The SCCZTO nanoparticles have been characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Tribological behavior of these nanoparticles in liquid paraffin oil has been evaluated using a four-ball lubricant tester and compared with conventional high SAPS containing zinc dialkyldithiophosphates (ZDDP). All antiwear tests have been performed using an optimized concentration of the SCCZTO nanoparticles (1% w/v) by varying the load for a 30 min test duration and by varying the test durations at 392 N load. Various tribological parameters such as mean wear scar diameter (MWD), friction coefficient (μ), mean wear volume (MWV), running-in, steady-state and overall wear rates show that all the SCCZTO nanoparticles act as efficient antiwear additives and possess a high load carrying capacity. The best tribological behavior is shown by SCCZTO-6 h, followed by SCCZTO-8 h and then SCCZTO-12 h. The surface morphology and roughness of the wear scar have been studied by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) respectively. AFM and SEM micrographs of the wear scar in the presence of SCCZTO-6 h and SCCZTO-8 h at 392 N applied load for a 90 min test duration show a drastic decrease in surface roughness. Energy-Dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis of the worn surface under similar experimental conditions in the presence of SCCZTO-6 h nanoparticles exhibits the presence of calcium, copper, zinc, titanium and oxygen on the worn steel surface indicating tribosinterization and/or adsorption of the additive on the rubbing surface resulting in the formation of a strong tribofilm. X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) of the tribofilm shows the presence of CaO, CuO, Cu2O, TiO2, Fe2O3 and adsorbed carbon in the form of –C–C– and –C(O)O– moieties.

Development and Evaluation of a Solid Self-Nanoemulsifying Drug Delivery System for Loratadin by Extrusion-Spheronization

Abstract: A B S T R A C T Purpose: Recently the liquid nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (SNEDDS) have shown dramatic effects on improving oral bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs. The main purpose of this study was to prepare a solid form of self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system of loratadin by extrusion-spheronization. The liquid SNEDDS are generally prepared in a soft or hard gelatin capsules which suffers from several disadvantages. Therefore incorporation of SNEDDS into solid dosage form is desirable to get together the advantages of SNEDDS and solid multiparticualte systems. Methods: The SNEDDS was consisted of liquid paraffin, capriole, span 20, transcutol and loratadin as a poorly soluble drug. A multilevel factorial design was used to formulation of SNEDDS pellets, liquid SNEDDS (20 and 30%) was mixed with lactose, microcrystallin cellulose (40%) and silicon dioxide (0, 5 and 10%), and Na- crosscarmelose (0, 5 and 10%). The resulting wet mass transformed into pellets by extrusion-spheronization. The pellets were dried and characterized for size (sieve analysis), shape (image analysis), mechanical strength (friability test), droplet size (laser light scattering) and drug release rate (dissolution test). Selected SNEDDS pellets were also compared with conventional loratadin pellet or tablet formulation. Results: The resulting SNE pellets exhibited uniform size and shape. Total friability of pellets did not affected by formulation variables. The in vitro release of SNE pellets was higher than the liquid SNE and powder tablets. Conclusion: Our studies demonstrated that extrusion-spheronization is a viable technology to produce self-emulsifying pellets in large scale which can improve in vitro dissolution with better solubility.

Developmental competence of oocytes isolated from surplus medulla tissue in connection with cryopreservation of ovarian tissue for fertility preservation

Abstract: Objective Evaluating the developmental competence of immature oocytes collected from surplus medulla tissue in connection with ovarian tissue cryopreservation for fertility preservation. Design Cohort comparative study. Setting University laboratory in Denmark from 2011–2012. Population 69 girls and women (0–38 years of age) who each had one ovary cryopreserved for fertility preservation. Methods Ovaries were obtained directly from the local hospital or from collaborating hospitals (two to five hours' transport on ice). Immature oocytes were aspirated from large antral follicles visible on the ovaries, and collected from the saline solution, containing surplus medulla tissue, following dissection of the ovarian cortical tissue for cryopreservation. The immature oocytes were cultured for 48 h in an Embryoscope™ Time-lapse System or in culture dishes overlaid with liquid paraffin using commercial and in-house supplemented culture media. Main outcome measures Maturation rate for immature oocytes reaching metaphase II. Results With a maturation rate of 3.1%, only 21 of 682 immature oocytes reached metaphase II. Immature oocytes from ovaries that had been transported on ice for two to five hours performed significantly poorer than those recovered immediately after surgery. Addition of epidermal growth factor and follicle fluid from human small antral follicles to the culture medium did not augment the maturation rate. Immature oocytes cultured in the Embryoscope performed significantly better than those in conventional culture dishes. Conclusions In vitro maturation of immature oocytes should only be attempted clinically from visible antral follicles and where the ovary is not subjected to a cooling period prior to recovery of immature oocytes.

Characterization of the extracellular biodemulsifiers secreted by Bacillus cereus LH-6 and the enhancement of demulsifying efficiency by optimizing the cultivation conditions

Abstract: A highly efficient demulsifying strain, LH-6, was isolated from petroleum-contaminated soil and identified as Bacillus cereus by 16S rDNA gene analysis. It achieved 95.61 and 95.40 % demulsifying ratios within 12 h for water-in-oil (W/O) and oil-in-water (O/W) model emulsions, respectively. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and thin-layer chromatography (TLC) detections indicated that the LH-6’s extracellular biodemulsifiers were different types of lipopeptides for the W/O and O/W emulsions. Optimization of the culture medium composition was conducted to improve the biosynthesis and demulsifying efficiency of the biodemulsifier. The optimal carbon source was liquid paraffin, while waste frying oil could also be an alternative carbon source. The optimal nitrogen sources were ammonium sulfate and yeast extract. To further enhance the biodemulsifier efficiency, the optimal cultivation conditions were determined using response surface methodology (RSM) based on central composite rotation design (CCRD). Using the optimized cultivation conditions, the demulsifying ratios increased to 98.23 and 97.65 % for the W/O and O/W model emulsions, respectively.

Facile synthesis of transparent and fluorescent epoxy–CdSe–CdS–ZnS core–multi shell polymer nanocomposites

Abstract: A facile and environmentally benign approach for the synthesis of highly transparent and fluorescent CdSe–CdS–ZnS core–multi-shell polymer nanocomposites is presented. The CdSe–CdS–ZnS core–multi-shell quantum dots (QDs) were prepared via a continual precursor injection and phosphine free method in paraffin liquid and oleic acid without a protective atmosphere. The as-prepared core–multi-shell QDs were dispersed directly in an epoxy polymer matrix via a melt mixing technique. The QDs showed better dispersibility and good optical properties in the epoxy matrix. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images showed that the as-synthesized QDs are small, spherical and are well dispersed inside the polymer matrix without any change in morphology. It was found that the nanocomposite filled with yellow-emitting QDs had more transparency compared to the neat epoxy. The luminescence of the neat polymer shifted from the blue region to the yellow region in the nanocomposite. The fluorescent lifetime analysis of the as-prepared core–multi shell and the polymer nanocomposite showed a decrease compared to the core while the tensile measurements showed an increase in the tensile properties of the nanocomposite in comparison with the neat polymer.

Preparation of regenerated keratin sponge from waste feathers by a simple method and its potential use for oil adsorption.

Abstract: In this work, pigeon feathers, a kind of totally waste by-product from the poultry industry, were utilized to fabricate a highly porous keratin sponge in a very simple way by freeze-drying treatment of the dissolved keratin solution, and applied for the first time as an oil adsorbent. An improved method was proposed to dissolve the feather keratin using the inexpensive sodium disulfite as the reducing reagent for sulfitolysis reaction, with a much lower concentration of all involving reaction regents. Moreover, the regenerated keratin sponges obtained a high oil adsorption capacity of above 30 g/g for both liquid paraffin and soybean oil, as well as a good oil holding ability, suggesting that this keratin sponge might be a potential for use as oil adsorbent.

Field Evaluation of Different Wavelengths Light-Emitting Diodes as Attractants for Adult Aleurodicus dispersus Russell (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae).

Abstract: In recent years, light traps with light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have been widely used in integrated pest management. The spiralling whitefly, Aleurodicus dispersus Russell, a highly invasive pest which causes heavy damage to fruit trees and ornamental plants, exhibits positive phototaxis, and light trap is the most appropriate tool for monitoring. We evaluated the use of LEDs as an inexpensive light source and examined the relationship between the captured number and the population density of adult A. dispersus in the field. We found that the violet (405 nm) LED traps captured the most adults of A. dispersus, and the captured numbers were significantly higher than those of blue (460 nm), green (520 nm), yellow (570 nm), and red (650 nm) LED traps. The adults of A. dispersus captured by light traps equipped with violet LEDs and smeared with liquid paraffin had a significant positive correlation with the population density of adult A. dispersus in a guava orchard, with a correlation coefficient of 0.828. In general, the light traps with 15 violet LED bulbs hung into 550-mL plastic bottles and smeared with liquid paraffin were the portable devices for attraction of adult A. dispersus. The results have potential use for improving the efficiency of light traps at attracting and trapping the adult spiralling whitefly.

Virus-mediated chemical changes in rice plants impact the relationship between non-vector planthopper Nilaparvata lugens Stål and its egg parasitoid Anagrus nilaparvatae Pang et Wang.

Abstract: In order to clarify the impacts of southern rice black-streaked dwarf virus (SRBSDV) infection on rice plants, rice planthoppers and natural enemies, differences in nutrients and volatile secondary metabolites between infected and healthy rice plants were examined. Furthermore, the impacts of virus-mediated changes in plants on the population growth of non-vector brown planthopper (BPH), Nilaparvata lugens, and the selectivity and parasitic capability of planthopper egg parasitoid Anagrus nilaparvatae were studied. The results showed that rice plants had no significant changes in amino acid and soluble sugar contents after SRBSDV infection, and SRBSDV-infected plants had no significant effect on population growth of non-vector BPH. A. nilaparvatae preferred BPH eggs both in infected and healthy rice plants, and tended to parasitize eggs on infected plants, but it had no significant preference for infected plants or healthy plants. GC-MS analysis showed that tridecylic aldehyde occurred only in rice plants infected with SRBSDV, whereas octanal, undecane, methyl salicylate and hexadecane occurred only in healthy rice plants. However, in tests of behavioral responses to these five volatile substances using a Y-tube olfactometer, A. nilaparvatae did not show obvious selectivity between single volatile substances at different concentrations and liquid paraffin in the control group. The parasitic capability of A. nilaparvatae did not differ between SRBSDV-infected plants and healthy plant seedlings. The results suggested that SRBSDV-infected plants have no significant impacts on the non-vector planthopper and its egg parasitoid, A. nilaparvatae.

Sodium alginate/HPMC/liquid paraffin emulsified (o/w) gel beads, by factorial design approach; and in vitro analysis

Abstract: The present study involved development of a novel sodium alginate (SA)/HPMC/light liquid paraffin emulsified (o/w) gel beads containing Diclofenac sodium (DS) as an active pharmaceutical ingredient and its site specific delivery by using hard gelatin capsule fabricated by enteric coated Eudragit L-100 polymer. Emulsified gel beads were formulated by 3-level factorial design, ionic gelatin method. The obtained beads were characterized by Fourier transform infrared, X-ray diffraction and Field emission scanning electron microscope analysis. The variables such as SA (X1), HPMC (X2), were optimized for drug loading and in vitro drug release with the help of response surface methodology (RSM). The RSM analysis predicted that SA was significant for both drug loading (p = 0.0005) and drug release (p = 0.0041). HPMC was only significant for drug release (p = 0.0154). The cross-product contribution (2FI) and quadratic model were found to be adequate and statistically accurate with correlation value (R2) of 0.9054 and 0.9450 to predict the drug loading and drug release respectively. An increase in concentration of HPMC and SA decreases the drug loading as well as the drug release. The obtained optimum values of drug loading and DS released were 7.43 % and 85.54 % respectively, which were well in agreement with the predicted value by RSM.
