Developing wound dressings capable of facilitating wound treatment and reducing healing time is one of the challenges of modern science. So, sodium alginate (Alg) is a good candidate for the development of wound dressings due to its bio- and hemocompatibility and biodegradability. However, Alg has its shortcomings, which can be dispatched by modification. The purpose of this work was to investigate the effect of Alg modification on the kinetics of ethonium release from crosslinked with Ca2+ ions samples. For this purpose, a method of Alg modifying with octane-1-amine was developed without the use of organic solvents and with the use of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethyl aminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDCl) as an initiator. The optimal parameters of alginate modification process were defined as 60 °С temperature and 24 hours duration. Physicochemical methods confirmed the success of the modification. Films based on the alginate modified with octane-1-amine (AlgM) were obtained using a calcium chloride solution as a crosslinker. The kinetics of swelling was studied and we found that the degree of swelling of the sample based on AlgM after 10 minutes is twice as large (α = 0.71) as for Alg (α = 0.37), which indicates a faster release of drugs. It has been found that the kinetics of release of ethonium depends not only on the kinetics of swelling but also on the chemical nature of the drug. The ethonium was immobilised in alginate films as a model of bactericidal drug. The kinetics of ethonium release was studied at different pH values corresponding to the pH of healthy skin (5.5), open wounds (7.2) and inflamed wounds (8.2). It was found that the release of ethonium from the sample based on AlgM is more pH-sensitive and prolonged, compared to the sample based on Alg. This effect is explained by the appearance of an additional mechanism of retention of ethonium by AlgM due to hydrophobic-hydrophobic interactions in the films. The prolonged release properties observed in the drug-loaded samples make them promising candidates for the development of targeted drug delivery systems and wound dressings, which are particularly relevant for the treatment of chronic and burn wounds. Future research will focus on optimizing the crosslinking method and exploring potential applications of modified alginate-based materials in biomedical sciences.","PeriodicalId":296392,"journal":{"name":"Himia, Fizika ta Tehnologia Poverhni","volume":"27 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140362296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite significant progress in the development of various endoprostheses over the past decades, bacterial periprosthetic infection is one of the main factors leading to complications in their use, prolongation of rehabilitation, and significant economic losses. The present work is devoted to the creation of hybrid hydrogel nanocomposites with complex antimicrobial action for endoprosthetics in the maxillofacial region and for filling postoperative cavities (primarily after tumor removal). These nanocomposites were created on the basis of pre-synthesized spongy polyvinylformal with encapsulated gold nanoparticles, the pore space of which was partially filled with pH-sensitive hydrogels based on acrylic acid (or copolymers based on acrylamide and acrylic acid) with sorbed Albucid. The structure of the synthesized hybrid hydrogel materials was confirmed by IR spectroscopy. Studies of the kinetics of hydrogel swelling in buffer solutions with different pH values have shown that the sample filled with a copolymer of acrylamide and acrylic acid with their ratio 95:5 has the optimal properties for preserving the geometric dimensions of the material for endoprosthetics, while in the case of incorporation of 100 % acrylic acid, the degree of swelling of the material (and, respectively, its dimensions) can vary significantly with a change of рН. Antimicrobial effect of the developed hybrid hydrogel materials was investigated using the following bacterial cultures: Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29213, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853. The antibacterial effect of polyvinylformal-based composites with incorporated gold nanoparticles that were saturated with Albucid on all test microorganisms was demonstrated (growth inhibition zones ranged from 15 to 35 mm), which will prevent microbial contamination of the developed hybrid hydrogel material when it is used in endoprosthesis.","PeriodicalId":296392,"journal":{"name":"Himia, Fizika ta Tehnologia Poverhni","volume":"25 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140364710","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, variation of their structural characteristics in the process of templated sol‑gel synthesis or post-synthetic treatment is of great importance. The aim of this work was to elucidate the influence of template agent selection on structural features of MCM-41‑type materials with surface silanol and 3‑chloropropyl groups. For this purpose, template-assisted sol-gel condensation of structure forming silanes (tetraethyl orthosilicate and 3‑chloropropyltriethoxysilane) was carried out in the presence of decyltrimethylammonium bromide as structure-directing agent. The capability of cyclic oligosaccharide (β-cyclodextrin) to interact with surfactant micelles in the process of hydrothermal sol-gel synthesis and to influence the formation of mesoporous structure of silica materials was studied. The IR spectroscopy was applied to carry out control under the complete removal of template moieties from pores by extraction procedure and to confirm introduction of 3‑chloropropyl groups into the surface layer of synthesized silicas. Arrangement of mesoscale pores and structural parameters were estimated from the results of X‑ray diffraction and low-temperature adsorption-desorption of nitrogen. It has been found that β‑cyclodextrin as component of hybrid template has positive effect on porous structure of 3-chloropropyl-functionalized MCM-41-type silica causing increase of surface area accompanied with preservation of pore ordering. Moreover, both ionic surfactant and oligosaccharide components of hybrid template act as porogens during sol-gel condensation of structure forming silanes enable to prepare silica materials with micro-mesoporosity. Proposed approach can be useful in synthesis of MCM‑41‑type silicas with surface linker groups and controlled structural characteristics (pore size, geometry and ordering), which have great potential as substrates in design of sophisticated materials.","PeriodicalId":296392,"journal":{"name":"Himia, Fizika ta Tehnologia Poverhni","volume":" 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139139069","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The composition of the plant extract and involving of its components in green synthesis of CeO2-NPs was studied by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and matrix-assisted laser/desorption ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI MS). It has been shown that the extract contained phenolic compounds (derivatives of simple phenols, flavonols, hydroxybenzoic and hydroxycinnamic acids, lignans, coumarins), as well as carotenoids, chlorophylls, terpenoids and sterols. The composition of the liquid phase from the reaction mixture (reaction liquid) after the NPs formation was studied to determine the components of the extract involved in the synthesis of CeO2-NPs. According to the results of HPLC and MALDI MS studies, significant differences were found in the composition of the plant extract and the reaction liquid: hydroxybenzoic acids, flavonoids and terpenoids disappeared or their concentration was significantly decreased, the content of lignans changed to a lesser extent, and it was observed the appearance of hydrophilic low-molecular compounds probably formed as a result of synthesis and stabilization of NPs. Synthesized CeO2-NPs were characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). According to SEM and XRD, CeO2-NPs had a crystalline structure and were of spherical shape; the average size of the crystallites was ~ 20 nm, and the diameter of the primary particles was 50 ± 10 nm.

The influence of hydrochloric acid solutions with concentrations up to 2 mol/L and calcination at temperatures up to 1100 °C on the structure and properties of heulandite-containing tuff from the Georgian Dzegvi-Tedzami deposit, selected for the creation of new bactericidal zeolite filter materials for purification and desinfection of water from various sources, was studied by the X-ray energy dispersion spectra, diffraction patterns and thermal analysis, as well as by adsorption of water, benzene and nitrogen methods. It has been found that an acidic environment leads to significant dealumination (Si/Al molar ratio increases from 3.6 to 9.5) and decationization (total charge of metal ions per Al atom decreases from 1 to 0.68) of the sample; solutions of hydrochloric acid do not lead to amorphization of the zeolite microporous crystal structure, but gradually dissolve it. As a result of acid treatment, there is also a sharp increase in the volume of micropores available for large molecules (from ≈ 7 to 80–90 mm3/g) and surface area (from ≈ 13 to 120–175 m2/g), as well as changes in the mesoporous system, leading to the prevalence of pores with a diameter of up to 4 nm. Heulandite heating leads to stepwise dehydration proceeding up to ≈ 800 °C, amorphization starting at ≈ 250 °C, and structural changes: the transition to methastable heulandite B phase at ≈ 340 °C is not fixed, but at ≈ 500 °C wairakite (Ca(Al2Si4O12)·2H2O) is formed, at temperatures above ≈ 1000 °C, amorphous aluminosilicate contains crystalline inclusions of cristobalite (polymorph of SiO2), α-quartz, albite (Na(AlSi3O8), hematite (Fe2O3) and magnetite (FeO·Fe2O3); heating-induced changes in micro- and mesopore systems are insignificant. It is also shown that heat treatment increases the acid resistance of heulandite, which is expressed in a decrease in the degree of dealumination after acid treatment of calcined samples.

These changes are relatively large because of variations in orientation, lateral interactions, and adsorption compressing of organic molecules interacting with surfaces characterized by certain set and amounts of various active sites, as well as due to changes in the accessibility of pore surface for probe molecules of different sizes.

This work is focused on studying the features of absorption caused by the influence of the magnetic component of laser radiation. This issue is rather poorly studied for MNPs of non-spherical shape. Therefore, how the shape of the particle manifests itself in its absorption of laser radiation (laser pulses) is one of the goals of our research. In this work, we will study the features of magnetic absorption of light (laser radiation) depending on the shape of the particles. In this paper, we will investigate the influence of spheroidal MNPs on this process. Calculations will be carried out using the kinetic equation method, because we will consider the case when the size of the MNP is smaller than the length of free path of the electron in the MNP. Note that the kinetic approach makes it possible to obtain correct results for the case when the size of the particle is greater than the length of the free path. For non-spherical MNPs, we have developed a theory that makes it possible to calculate the energy of magnetic absorption by a particle when it is irradiated with laser pulses. The dependence of magnetic absorption on the ratio of the radii of curvature of spheroidal MNPs and the vector of the magnetic field of an electromagnetic (laser) wave was constructed and theoretically investigated. An interesting result is the absorption of energy by a spheroidal MNP as its disco similarity increases. We now use to estimate the relative contributions of electric We and magnetic Wm absorption to the total absorption. For example, let us take a gold MNP’s, then ωp ≈ 5·1015 s–1, ν ≈ 1013 s–1, R = 3·10–6 sm, ω ≈ 2·1014 s–1 (carbon dioxide laser), ε' ≈ –600, ε'' ≈ 30 we received the next ratio We/Wm ≈ 2. We can see that for the given set of parameters magnetic absorption is twice as large as electric. Obviously, for different parameters of the particle and a different frequency range electric absorption can be either larger or smaller than magnetic absorption. Hence, when studying the dependence of optical absorption by MNP’s on particle form, we must allow for both electric and magnetic absorption. For an asymmetric MNP’s (for example ellipsoidal particles), apart from everything else, the ratio of the electric and magnetic contributions to absorption (as fixed frequency) is strongly dependent on the degree of particle asymmetric and wave polarization.","PeriodicalId":296392,"journal":{"name":"Himia, Fizika ta Tehnologia Poverhni","volume":" 45","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139139727","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has been shown that, at low frequencies of an applied alternating current, the surface concentrations of electroactive and electroinactive species increase with increasing the Nernst diffusion layer thickness. At high frequencies, the surface concentrations of both species do not depend on this parameter. However, there is a range of frequencies where the surface concentrations of species can decrease with increasing the Nernst diffusion layer thickness. This range of frequencies can be influenced by a value of the Nernst diffusion layer thickness, the rate constants of chemical reaction, and the diffusion coefficient of species. There exists a phase shift between an alternating current and the surface concentrations of electroactive and electroinactive species that change under application of this current. It is a function of the Nernst diffusion layer thickness, the oscillation diffusion layer thickness, and the reaction layer thickness. In the case of electroactive species, the phase angle can take only a positive value. At low frequencies, it tends to π/2, whereas at high frequencies it decreases to π/4.

Expressions for the frequency dependences of the effective dielectric function and the absorption coefficient of the metal-dielectric nanocomposite are obtained within the effective medium model taking into account the axial symmetry of spheroidal inclusions. The effective relaxation rate of electrons is introduced using the kinetic approach. Numerical calculations are performed for the cases when inclusion particles have the form of elongated and flattened nanospheroids. The results of the calculations indicate the presence of two maxima of the absorption coefficient, which correspond to longitudinal and transverse surface plasmon resonance. The change in the position and magnitude of the maxima of the frequency dependences of the effective dielectric function and the absorption coefficient with varying the size and shape of the spheroidal particles-inclusions is analyzed. It is shown that the greater the difference in the lengths of the semi-axes of the spheroids, the greater the distance between the maxima of the effective dielectric function and the absorption coefficient, and the shape of the curves depends on the eccentricity of spheroidal inclusions. It has been found that the position of the maxima is significantly influenced by the choice of the material of the inclusion particles and the matrix medium, while the height of the maxima is largely influenced by the shape of the nanoparticles, as well as their volume content in the composite medium. It is proved that, dependent on the material of nanoparticles-inclusions, both maxima of the absorption coefficient can be found in the visible part of the spectrum (for Au inclusions) or in the ultraviolet (for Al inclusions).
