Abstract
The enantioseparation of chiral drugs via CE was first investigated using β-CD as chiral additive and deep eutectic solvents (DESs) as auxiliary additive. The results showed that improved separation of tested chiral drugs was obtained in the presence of DESs and β-CD compared to the single β-CD separation system. With the optimized condition, resolutions of DESs applied β-CD separation system for rac-Zopiclone, rac-Salbutamol, and rac-Amlodipine increased 3-4.2 times as single β-CD separation system. The resolutions reached 4.74, 6.37, and 9.67, respectively. The results demonstrate that DESs are viable additives to CD system in CE for the separation of the chiral drugs.

Abstract
Flotation drug delivery system (FDDS) is recognized as an efficient means to improve the therapeutic efficiency and enhance the drug bioavailability. Herein, we have developed a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) against capecitabine (CAP) to fabricate a FDDS by exploiting polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) and Mobil composition of matter no. 41 (MCM-41) as the codopant. The synergistic effect of POSS and MCM-41 endows MIPs with enhanced imprinting effect and improved mass transfer efficiency. The impacts of the type of dopant, the type of functional monomer, the template/functional monomer ratio and the functional monomer/cross-linker ratio on imprinting effect have been investigated in detail. The POSS/MCM-41 codoped MIPs present favourable sustained release property in vitro and in vivo, displaying a high relative bioavailability of 173.4%. The proposed MIPs with high selectivity and superior physical and chemical stability exhibit potential as an alternative drug carrier applied in FDDS.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of deproteinized calf blood extract eye drops on early postoperative recovery in primary pterygium patients. Methods: This is a prospective randomized controlled study. Patients diagnosed with primary pterygium in single eye at affiliated Xiamen Eye Center of Xiamen University during March 2016 to May 2016 were enrolled. After Pterygium excision with autologous conjunctival transplantation, patients were randomly assigned into four groups by a random number table, treated with anti-inflammaroty drugs only (control group) or combined with the following agents: deproteinized calf blood extract eye drops (DCBE group), carboxymethylcellulose sodium eye drops (CMC group), and recombinant human epidermal growth factor eye drops (rEGF group). Short-form McGill pain questionnaire, slit lamp and corneal fluorescein sodium staining, non-contact intraocular pressure, uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) and best corrected visual acquity (BCVA) as well as redness score of bulbar conjunctiva were performed before surgery (d0) and on day 1 (d1), day 2 (d2), day 3 (d3), day 7 (d7) and day 14 (d14) after surgery. Results: One hundred and fourteen patients including 43 males and 71 females, aged (48.9±12.5) years, were eventually included in this study. The McGill scores gradually decreased after surgery in all groups. On d2, the McGill score in DCBE group, control group, CMC group and rEGF group was (1.42±0.67), (2.21±0.88), (1.93±1.08) and (1.77±1.18), respectively; On d3, the score was (1.32±0.54), (1.93±0.72), (1.79±0.87) and (1.52±0.77), respectively. On d2 and d3, statistical difference was recorded among groups (d2, F=3.43, P=0.019; d3, F=4.047, P=0.009), and the McGill score of DCBE group was significantly lower than that of CMC group (d2, P=0.047, d3, P=0.017). On d2, the percentage of corneal epithelium defect in DCBE group, control group, CMC group and rEGF group was 8.6%±1.9%, 11.7%±1.7%, 11.5%±1.9% and 10.4%±1.8%, respectively; On d3, the percentage was 4.5%±2.2%, 9.2%±2.4%, 7.4%±2.5% and 5.9%±2.3%, respectively. On d2 and d3, statistical difference of corneal epithelium defect percentage was recorded among groups (d2, F=17.17, P<0.001; d3, F=21.4, P<0.001). On d2, the percentage of corneal epithelium defect in DCBE group was significantly lower than the other three groups (P<0.01); On d3, the percentage of corneal epithelium defect in DCBE group was significantly lower than control group and CMC group (P<0.001), while no difference was found between DCBE group and rEGF group (P>0.05). However, no statistical differences were recorded in the number of patients with vision improvement among the groups (P>0.05). The intraocular pressure remained stable. No differences in the conjunctival redness score were found among the groups after surgery (P>0.05). Conclusion: Our data demonstrated the efficacy of deproteinized calf blood extract eye drops on the postoperative management in patients with primary patients, with faster pain relief and promoted epithelium recovery.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have drawn extensive attention as carriers on drug delivery. However, most of MIPs suffer from insufficient drug loading capacity, burst release of drugs and/or low bioavailability. To solve the issues, this study designed an imprinted material with superior floating nature for oral drug delivery system of capecitabine (CAP) rationally. The MIPs was synthesized in the presence of 4-methylphenyl dicyclohexyl ethylene (liquid crystalline, LC) and polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) via polymerization reaction. The LC-POSS MIPs had extended release of the template molecules over 13.4 h with entrapment efficiency of 20.53%, diffusion coefficient of 2.83 × 10-11 cm2 s-1, and diffusion exponent of 0.84. Pharmacokinetic studies further revealed the prolong release and high relative bioavailability of CAP in vivo of rats, showing the effective floating effect of the LC-POSS MIPs. The in vivo images revealed visually that the gastroretentive time of the LC-POSS MIPs was longer than non-LC-POSS imprinted polymers. The physical characteristics of the polymers were also characterized by nitrogen adsorption experiment, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry analysis. As a conclusion, the LC-POSS MIPs can be used as an eligible CAP carrier and might hold great potential in clinical applications for sustained release drug.

Abstract
The facile fabrication of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs)-doping molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) nanocomposite-based binary green porogen system, room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs), and deep eutectic solvents (DESs) was developed for drug delivery system. With fenbufen (FB) as template molecule, 4-vinylpyridine (4-VP) was used as functional monomer, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as cross-linking monomer, and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazoliumtetrafluoroborate and choline chloride/ethylene glycol as binary green solvent, in the presence of SWCNTs. The imprinting effect of the SWCNT-MIP composites was optimized by regulation of the amount of SWCNTs, ratio of RTILs and DES, and the composition of DES. Blue shifts of UV bands strongly suggested that interaction between 4-VP and FB can be enhanced due to SWCNT doping in the process of self-assembly. The reinforced imprinted effect of CNT-doping MIP can provide superior controlled release characteristics. Compared with the control MIP prepared without SWCNTs, the imprinting factor of the SWCNT-MIP composites exhibited a twofold increase. In the analysis for the FB release kinetics from all samples, the SWCNT-reinforced MIP produced the lowest value of drug diffusivity. The relative bioavailability of the SWCNT-MIP composites (F %) displayed the highest value of 143.3% compared with the commercial FB tablet, whereas the control MIP and SWCNT-non-MIP composites was only 48.3% and 44.4%, respectively. The results indicated that the SWCNT-MIP nanocomposites developed here have potentials as the controlled-release device.

Abstract
AIMS To elucidate the biological characteristics and stability of a newly identified staphylococcal enterotoxin Q (SEQ) against heating and digestive enzymes and to evaluate the risk of seq-harbouring Staphylococcus aureus in food poisoning. METHODS AND RESULTS Purified SEQ was treated with heating, pepsin and trypsin which are related to food cooking, stomach and intestine conditions, respectively. Superantigenic activity of SEQ was assessed by determining the ability of IL-2 induction in mouse spleen cells. The emetic activity of SEQ was assessed using house musk shrew, a small emetic animal model. The results revealed that SEQ exhibits a remarkable resistance to heat treatment and pepsin digestion and has significant superantigenic and emetic activities. Furthermore, a sandwich ELISA for detection of SEQ production was developed, and the results showed that seq-harboring S. aureus isolates produce a large amount of SEQ. CONCLUSIONS The newly identified SEQ had remarkable stability to heat treatment and digestive enzyme degradation and exhibited significant superantigenic and emetic activities. In addition, seq-harbouring S. aureus isolated from food poisoning outbreaks produced a large amount of SEQ, suggesting that seq-harbouring S. aureus could potentially be a hazard for food safety. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY This study found, for the first time, that SEQ, a nonclassical SE, had remarkable stability to heat treatment and enzyme degradation and exhibited significant emetic activity, indicating that SEQ is a high-risk toxin in food poisoning.

Abstract
In this work, a hybrid monolith incorporated with graphene oxide (GO) was prepared in the first time with binary green porogens of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) and room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs). GO was modified with 3-(trimethoxysilyl) propylmethacrylate (γ-MPS), and the resultant GO-MPS can be incorporated into poly (methacrylic acid-co-butylmethacrylate-co-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) monoliths covalently. A hybrid monolithic column with high permeability and homogeneity can be achieved due to good dispersion of GO-MPS in the green solvents. The GO-MPS incorporated monolith was characterized by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and nitrogen adsorption tests. The separation of small organic molecules of alkylphenones and alkylbenzenes was used to evaluate the performance of GO-MPS grafted monolith. The GO-MPS grafted monolith displayed the maximum column efficiency of 147,000 plates/m, about twice higher than the GO-free monolith. In addition, all of the retention and selectivity of small molecules of alkylphenones and alkylbenzenes increased due to the addition of GO-MPS. The results demonstrated that the use of DESs and RTILs is a powerful approach for the preparation of GO incorporated polymer monoliths. The monolith was further applied to the separation of tryptic digests from bovine serum albumin, and the result indicated its potential in the analysis of some complex samples.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the clinical results of keratoconic eyes with a thin cornea treated with accelerated transepithelial corneal collagen cross-linking (A-TE-CXL) within 1 year. Methods: Nineteen eyes of 19 patients with progressive keratoconus with a minimum corneal thickness from 380 μm to 420 μm (including the epithelium) were included in this prospective, nonrandomized clinical study and treated with A-TE-CXL. Scoring of pain and foreign body sensation, slit lamp examination, uncorrected visual acuity, best corrected distance visual acuity, corneal topography, anterior segment optical coherence tomography, in vivo corneal confocal microscopy and endothelial cell count were assessed before surgery and at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively. Paired t test was applied for statistical analysis. Results: Mild pain and moderate foreign body sensation were reported by most patients within postoperative 24 hours, but rapidly disappeared on day 2. Extremely mild epithelial damage was observed within postoperative 24 hours, and the epithelium fully recovered on day 2. Improvement of visual acuity was recorded at 3 and 12 months. Pentacam corneal topography revealed a significant reduction of the thickness of the thinnest location from(395.2±13.8)μm preoperatively to (378.9±17.1)μm at 1 month postoperatively (t=2.982, P<0.01). Front curvature values were reduced postoperatively. K(MAX) was significantly decreased at 12 months (55.67±4.91) compared with (57.35±5.54) preoperatively, while K2 was also significantly decreased at 12 months (52.18±3.70) compared with (52.70±3.56) preoperatively (K(MAX), t=3.044, P<0.01. K2, t=2.384, P<0.05) . Within 1 month postoperatively, optical coherence tomography exhibited an increase of reflectance with a demarcation line in the anterior stroma. In vivo confocal microscopy also showed significant thickening and increased connections of collagen fibers with a maximal depth at about 90 to 120 μm. The corneal endothelial cell density remained stable (t=0.692, P>0.05). None of the patients showed postoperative complications such as corneal infection, scarring and ulceration. Conclusions: Within 1 year postoperatively, A-TE-CXL was effective and safe for the management of progressive keratoconus with a thin cornea. A-TE-CXL showed the advantages of very short time consuming in surgery, rapid recovery and very few complications, and had the potential to become a valid alternative for the treatment of keratoconus.

Abstract
Series of green laser diodes (LDs) with different (In)GaN barrier layers are investigated. It is found that the optical confinement factor of multi-quantum well (MQW) always increases with increasing indium content of InGaN barrier layer, which results in a decrease of threshold current when indium content of InGaN barrier layer increases from 0 to 5%. However, when a high In content InGaN barrier is used (> 5%), both threshold current and slop efficiency of LDs deteriorate. It may be attributed to the waste of carriers in the potential well at the interface between the last barrier (LB) and the upper waveguide (UWG) layers, which is induced by the piezoelectric polarization effect in high In content InGaN LB layer. Therefore, a new LD structure using a thin thickness of the LB layer to reduce the effect of polarization shows a low threshold current and a high output power even when the In content of barrier layers is as large as 7%.

Abstract
The optical power emitting from the cavity facet of blue InGaN-based laser diodes (LDs) is measured to investigate the efficiency droop. The efficiency droop behavior of blue InGaN-based LDs near the threshold is confirmed in our experiments. From measurements of optical power at different wavelengths, it is analyzed that the droop behavior of LDs can be ascribed to the efficiency reduction of longer wavelengths. The efficiency of longer wavelengths is subject to the carrier occupation process in quantum levels. In addition, it is found that the droop behavior may be largely affected by the relatively large threshold current of InGaN-based LDs and the screening effect of polarization, and it can be suppressed by stimulated emission.

Abstract
A method for solid-phase extraction (SPE) of corilagin from natural plant extracts based on molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) was developed. For the preparation of corilagin-MIP monoliths, 4-vinylpyridine was used as functional monomer, and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate was used as cross-linking monomer, using a mixture of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazoliumtetrafluoroborate (ionic liquid)-N,N-dimethylformamide-dimethyl sulfoxide as a porogen. A morphological characteristic of the corilagin imprinted monolith was further studied by scanning electron microscopy and nitrogen sorption method. The greatest imprinting factor of COR was up to 9. The MIPs were used as solid-phase extraction (SPE) sorbents for purification of COR and the mean recoveries of corilagin was 78.0% with COR purity of 98.0% from the crude extract of phyllanthus urinaria L. The resulting COR-imprinted polymer also displayed the good performance of fragment imprinting polymer for gallic acid with the mean recoveries of 94.0% and purity of 99.7%.
