Abstract
Surface electrostatic potential Ψ is a key characteristic of colloid particles. Since the surface of the particles adsorbs various compounds and facilitates chemical reactions between them, Ψ largely affects the properties of adsorbed reactants and governs the flow of chemical reactions occurring between them. One of the most popular methods for estimating Ψ in hydrophilic colloids, such as micellar surfactant solutions and related systems, is the application of molecular probes, predominantly acid-base indicator dyes. The Ψ value is calculated from the difference of the probe's indices of the apparent acidity constant between the examined colloid solution and, usually, some other colloid solution with noncharged particles. Here, we show how to implement this method in silico using alchemical free energy calculations within the framework of molecular dynamics simulations. The proposed implementation is tested on surfactant micelles and is shown to predict experimental Ψ values with quantitative accuracy depending on the kind of surfactant. The sources of errors in the method are discussed, and recommendations for its application are given.

Abstract
Introduction: In this review, we aim to highlight the impact of various processes and formulation variables influencing the characteristics of certain surfactant-based nanoconstructs for drug delivery. Areas covered: The review includes the discussion on processing parameters for the preparation of nanoconstructs, especially those made up of surfactants. Articles published in last 15 years (437) were reviewed, 381 articles were selected for data review and most appropriate articles (215) were included in article. Effect of variables such as surfactant concentration and type, membrane additives, temperature, and pH-dependent transitions on morphology has been highlighted along with effect of shape on nanoparticle uptake by cells. Various characterization techniques explored for these nanostructures with respect to size, morphology, lamellarity, distribution, etc., and a separate section on polymeric vesicles and the influence of block copolymers, type of block copolymer, control of block length, interaction of multiple block copolymers on the structure of polymersomes and chimeric nanostructures have been discussed. Finally, applications, modification, degradation, and toxicological aspects of these drug delivery systems have been highlighted. Expert opinion: Parameters influencing the morphology of micelles and vesicles can directly or indirectly affect the efficacy of small molecule cellular internalization as well as uptake in the case of biologicals.[Figure: see text].

Influence of AO chain length, droplet size and oil to water ratio on the distribution and on the activity of gallates in fish oil-in-water emulsified systems: Emulsion and nanoemulsion comparison. Food Chem 2019; 310:125716. [PMID: 31796227 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2019.125716] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2019] [Revised: 09/19/2019] [Accepted: 10/15/2019] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
The distribution of a homologous series of polyphenol derivatives of increasing lipophilicity has been determined in fish oil-in-water emulsions and nanoemulsions by the pseudophase model. One of the hypotheses on which the pseudophase model is based, is that its application is independent of the size of emulsion droplets. In agreement with our hypothesis, results showed that the smaller droplet size found in nanoemulsions does not affect partition constants of gallic acid (GA) and its esters. The antioxidant efficiency of GA and gallates in the emulsified systems used, correlated positively with the concentration of antioxidant at the interfacial region. The increase in the oil/water ratio increased the overall oxidative stability of emulsions but decreased the antioxidant efficiency of the more lipophilic derivatives. This can be assigned to the fact that, increasing the oil phase volume, the interfacial concentration decreased for the more lipophilic antioxidants.
