[PMID: 38172030 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.128526] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/19/2023] [Revised: 11/17/2023] [Accepted: 11/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024]
Abstract
Bacillus velezensis has been known for its high potential in controlling agricultural diseases. Technological advances have opened new perspectives for producing effective formulations by reducing some of the obstacles to their use, such as instability and loss of activity due to exposure to adverse environmental conditions. Encapsulation is one of the new approaches in agricultural science. This research describes discoveries related to processes for the microencapsulation of B. velezensis with natural gums. The efficiency, survival, and controlled release of B. velesensis BV9 encapsulated with alginate mixed with zedo gum, mastic gum, and tragacanth gum were evaluated for this aim. Furthermore, under greenhouse conditions, the encapsulated cells were assessed to control Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici in wheat. The results indicated that all tested microcapsules protected >60 % of the bacterial cells. The Alginate-Zedo Gum (Alg-ZG) microcapsules showed a better-controlled release over two months. The greenhouse study indicated that treating wheat plants with Alg-ZG microcapsules was the most efficient treatment, suppressing 100 % of the pathogen. The results indicated that Alg-ZG is the most promising mixture to improve the survivability of B. velezensis BV9. Also, using natural gums and great potential of this formulation provides an effective and affordable fertilizers for agriculture.

Abstract
Gene therapy, as a revolutionary treatment, has been gaining more and more attention. The key to gene therapy is the selection of suitable vectors for protection of exogenous nucleic acid molecules and enabling their specific release in target cells. While viral vectors have been widely used in researches, non-viral vectors are receiving more attention due to its advantages. Chitosan (CS) has been widely used as non-viral organic gene carrier because of its good biocompatibility and its ability to load large amounts of nucleic acids. This paper summarizes and evaluates the potential of chitosan and its derivatives as gene delivery vector materials, along with factors influencing transfection efficiency, performance evaluation, ways to optimize infectious efficiency, and the current main research development directions. Additionally, it provides an outlook on its future prospects.

Abstract
In this study, a smart strain sensor based on gluten/guar gum (GG) copolymer containing a combination of additives was developed. The mix proportions of strain sensors were designed using Taguchi method coupled with Grey relational analysis. L16 orthogonal array with three factors, viz. tannic acid (TA), glycerol and sodium chloride (NaCl) at four-levels each was optimized. The addition of TA substantially enhanced tensile strength, self-adhesion ability and conductivity. The self-adhesion ability could also be improved by adding NaCl in range of 0-5 wt%. The presence of glycerol in strain sensors could reduce the self-healing time which was found in the range of 28.75-150 s. In addition, the incorporation of glycerol into gel also improved stretchability of strain sensors. The best mix proportion of strain sensor was found to be 3.75 wt% TA, 30 vol% glycerol and 5 wt% NaCl. The best mixture of stain sensor showed the highest gauge factor (GF) of 0.61 % at a stretchability of 665 % and rapid self-healing at 70 s. This strain sensor could be applied to monitor human limb movements in a wide temperature range from -20 °C to 50 °C. Furthermore, the obtained gel was successfully used as electronic devices and self-powered sensors.

Abstract
Targeted delivery of drug molecules to diseased sites is a great challenge in pharmaceutical and biomedical sciences. Fabrication of drug delivery systems (DDS) to target and/or diagnose sick cells is an effective means to achieve good therapeutic results along with a minimal toxicological impact on healthy cells. Biopolymers are becoming an important class of materials owing to their biodegradability, good compatibility, non-toxicity, non-immunogenicity, and long blood circulation time and high drug loading ratio for both macros as well as micro-sized drug molecules. This review summarizes the recent trends in biopolymer-based DDS, forecasting their broad future clinical applications. Cellulose chitosan, starch, silk fibroins, collagen, albumin, gelatin, alginate, agar, proteins and peptides have shown potential applications in DDS. A range of synthetic techniques have been reported to design the DDS and are discussed in the current study which is being successfully employed in ocular, dental, transdermal and intranasal delivery systems. Different formulations of DDS are also overviewed in this review article along with synthesis techniques employed for designing the DDS. The possibility of these biopolymer applications points to a new route for creating unique DDS with enhanced therapeutic qualities for scaling up creative formulations up to the clinical level.

Abstract
Synthetic drugs and monoclonal antibodies are the typical treatments to combat inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, side effects are present when these treatments are used, and their continued application could be restricted by the high relapse rate of the disease. One potential alternative to these treatments is the use of plant-derived products. The use curcumin is one such treatment option that has seen an increase in usage in treating IBD. Curcumin is derived from a rhizome of turmeric (Curcuma longa), and the results of studies on the use of curcumin to treat IBD are promising. These studies suggest that curcumin interacts with cellular targets such as NF-κB, JAKs/STATs, MAPKs, TNF-α, IL-6, PPAR, and TRPV1 and may reduce the progression of IBD. Potentially, curcumin can be used as a therapeutic agent for patients with IBD when it reduces the incidence of clinical relapse. This review discusses the strategies utilized in designing and developing an oral colonic delivery dosage form of curcumin.

Abstract
Environment-responsive-cum-site-specific delivery of therapeutic drugs into tumor cells is a foremost challenge for chemotherapy. In the present work, Moringa oleifera gum-based pH-responsive nanogel (MOGN) was functionalized as a doxorubicin (DOX) carrier. It was synthesized via free radical polymerization through the γ-irradiation method using acrylamide and N,N'-MBA followed by hydrolysis, sonication, and ultracentrifugation. The swelling behavior of MOGN as a function of pH was assessed using a gravimetric method that revealed its superabsorbent nature (365.0 g/g). Furthermore, MOGN showed a very high loading efficiency (98.35 %L) of DOX by MOGN. In vitro release studies revealed that DOX release from DOX-loaded MOGN was 91.92% at pH 5.5 and 12.18% at 7.4 pH, thus favorable to the tumor environment. The drug release from nanogel followed Korsmeyer-Peppas model at pH 5.5 and 6.8 and the Higuchi model at pH 7.4. Later, the efficient DOX release at the tumor site was also investigated by cytotoxicity study using Rhabdomyosarcoma cells. Thus, the synthesized nanogel having high drug loading capacity and excellent pH-triggered disintegration and DOX release performance in a simulated tumor environment could be a promising candidate drug delivery system for the targeted and controlled release of anticancer drugs.

Abstract
Green synthesis of metal nanoparticles is gathering attention due to eco-friendly processing. Tungsten oxide (WO3) nanoparticles have immense applications as semiconductors, antimicrobials and photo thermal materials but their synthesis using biological systems is hitherto unpublicized. The paper discusses synthesis of WO3 nanoparticles using Stenotrophomonas maltophilia and the optimization of physico-chemical parameters of incubation which influence the growth and metabolism of the bacterium and consequently the size of the WO3 nanoparticles. The biogenic synthesis of WO3 nanoparticles was confirmed by ATR-FTIR and X-ray diffraction analysis. Taguchi and analysis of variance method was applied to optimize the physico-chemical parameters (pH, temperature, time, aeration rate and concentration), considering particle size and poly dispersity index (PDI) of the nanoparticles as the experimental responses. Under the design of experiments technique, Taguchi's L27 array was selected to determine the optimal process parameters which could significantly reduce the particle size and PDI of WO3 nanoparticles. Statistical analysis by signal-to-noise ratio, regression analysis and ANOVA (95% confidence level) on experimental responses confirmed pH and aeration as most influential while temperature and time as least influential parameters. pH 8, Temperature 40 °C, aeration 200 RPM, time 3 days and concentration of sodium tungstate at 1 mM (p3t3r3d3c1) was the most effective level and parameters combination for smallest particle size and PDI of WO3 nanoparticles. Regression models developed for particle size and PDI exhibited a linear regression of 97.80% and 90.89% respectively, while the confirmation test validated the size and PDI of the experimental values against predicted results. SEM image of WO3 nanoparticles illustrated the same particle size as that predicted, further validating the model. The study can be applied to optimize any process parameters in the industry or on biological systems.

Abstract
Over the last decade, nanotechnology has widely addressed many nanomaterials in the biomedical area with an opportunity to achieve better-targeted delivery, effective treatment, and an improved safety profile. Nanocarriers have the potential property to protect the active molecule during drug delivery. Depending on the employing nanosystem, the delivery of drugs and genes has enhanced the bioavailability of the molecule at the disease site and exercised an excellent control of the molecule release. Herein, the chapter discusses various advanced nanomaterials designed to develop better nanocarrier systems used to face different diseases such as cancer, heart failure, and malaria. Furthermore, we demonstrate the great attention to the promising role of nanocarriers in ease diagnostic and biodistribution for successful clinical cancer therapy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Many nanocarriers have been developed to react physicochemically to exterior stimuli like ultrasonic, light, heat, and magnetic fields, along with various internal stimuli including pH, hypoxia, enzyme, and redox potential. Nanocarriers are capable to respond various stimuli within the cancer cells to enable on-demand drug delivery, activation of bioactive compounds, controlled drug release, and targeting ligands, as well as size, charge, and conformation conversion, enabling sensing and signaling, overcoming multidrug resistance, accurate diagnosis, and precision therapy. AREAS COVERED Carbohydrates are ubiquitous biomolecules with a high proclivity for supramolecular network formation. Numerous carbohydrate-based nanomaterials have been used in biological solicitations and stimuli-based responses. Particular emphasis has been placed on the utilization of carbohydrate-based NPs and nanogels in various fields including imaging, drug administration, and tissue engineering. Because the assembly process is irreversible, carbohydrate-based systems are excellent ingredients for the development of stimulus-responsive nanocarriers for cancer-targeted chemotherapy. This review aims to summarise current research on carbohydrate-based nanomaterials, with an emphasis on stimuli-sensitive nanocarriers for cancer-targeted chemotherapy. EXPERT OPINION Carbohydrates-based stimulus-responsive nanomaterials have been proved highly efficient for targeted delivery of anticancer drugs, thus leading to effective chemotherapy with minimum off-target effects.

Abstract
Conventional drug delivery systems often cause side effects and gastric degradation. Novel drug delivery systems must be developed to decrease side effects and increase the efficacy of drug delivery. This research aimed to fabricate hydrogel beads for use as a drug delivery system based on basil seed mucilage (BSM), sodium alginate (SA), and magnetic particles (MPs). The Taguchi method and Grey relational analysis were used for the design and optimization of the hydrogel beads. Three factors, including BSM, SA, and MPs at four levels were designed by L-16 orthogonal arrays. BSM was the main factor influencing bead swelling, drug release rate at pH 7.4, and release of antioxidants at pH 1.2 and 7.4. In addition, SA and MPs mainly affected drug loading and drug release rate in acidic medium, respectively. Grey relational analysis indicated that the composition providing optimal overall properties was 0.2 vol% BSM, 0.8 vol% SA, and 2.25 vol% MPs. Based on the findings of this work, BSM/SA/MPs hydrogel beads have the potential to be used as a pH-sensitive alternative material for drug delivery in colon-specific systems.

Abstract
The synthesis of parapyruvate is important for the analysis of the content in the pyruvate supplements and the study of aging-related neurodegenerative diseases. However, the pure parapyruvate crystal is not, as yet, commercially available. In this study, we applied the Taguchi's L9 orthogonal array to investigate the optimal conditions for the preparation of the pure parapyruvate by the alkaline treatment of the pyruvic acid and then followed it with the solvent crystallization steps. We were also interested in revealing the major factors that affect the yield for the synthesized pure parapyruvate crystals. In addition, the parapyruvate-inhibited enzyme kinetic of α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex (KGDHC) was also investigated. We found that the pure parapyruvate could be obtained in combination with an alkaline treatment and two solvent crystallization steps. The main factors affecting the yield of the pure parapyruvate were the concentration of the pyruvic acid (the reactant), the pH of the alkali treatment, the type of solvent used for the crystallization and the volume ratio of solvent used for crystallization. Finally, the optimal conditions could prepare parapyruvate crystals with a high purity of 99.8% and a high yield of 72.8%. In addition, the results demonstrate that parapyruvate is a reversibly competitive inhibitor for KGDHC.

Abstract
Chitin, a kind of second abundant natural saccharide, has great potential in biomedical applications. Here, chitin nanofibers combined with magnetic nanoparticles, a magnetic hydrogel, was prepared in one step by mixing Fe ions with partially deacetylated chitin nanofibers (DEChNs) and physically coagulating in an ammonia gas bath. The storage modulus of the prepared magnetic DEChN (M-DEChN) hydrogels reached 5507 Pa and could be remolded by adjusting the pH value assisted with an ultrasound treatment. In addition, the M-DEChN hydrogels showed an assignable heating behavior in alternating electromagnetic fields (AMFs), and the temperature of the M-DEChN was adjustable by controlling the content of magnetic particles inside. Benefiting from the remote heating ability, the biocompatible magnetic hydrogel showed thermoablation ability to osteosarcoma cells both in vitro and in vivo. These kinds of M-DEChN hydrogels show great application prospects in killing cancer cells.

Abstract
In this paper, we have reported an innovative greener method for developing copper-metal organic frameworks (Cu-MOFs) using caffeic acid (CA) as a linker extracted from Satureja hortensis using ultrasonic bath. The density functional theory is used to discuss the Cu-MOF-binding reaction mechanism. In order to achieve a discrepancy between the energy levels of the interactive precursor orbitals, the molecules have been optimized using the B3LYP/6-31G method. The Taguchi method was used to optimize the key parameters for the synthesis of Cu-MOF. FT-IR, XRD, nitrogen adsorption, and SEM analyses are used to characterize it. The adsorption/desorption and SEM analyses suggested that Cu-MOF has a larger surface area of 284.94 m2/g with high porosity. Cu-MOF has shown anticancer activities against the human breast cancer (MDA-MB-468) cell lines, and it could be a potent candidate for clinical applications.

Abstract
The production and demand of nanoparticles in the manufacturing sector and personal care products, release a large number of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) into the atmosphere, aquatic ecosystems, and terrestrial environments. The intentional or involuntary incorporation of ENPs into the environment is carried out through different processes. The ENPs are combined with other compounds and release into the atmosphere, settling on the ground due to the water cycle or other atmospheric phenomena. In the case of aquatic ecosystems, the ENPs undergo hetero-aggregation and sedimentation, reaching different living organisms and flora, as well as groundwater. Accordingly, the high mobility of ENPs in diverse ecosystems is strongly related to physical, chemical, and biological processes. Recent studies have been focused on the toxicological effects of a wide variety of ENPs using different validated biological models. This literature review emphasizes the study of toxicological effects related to using the most common ENPs, specifically metal and metal/oxides-based nanoparticles, addressing different synthesis methodologies, applications, and toxicological evaluations. The results suggest negative impacts on biological models, such as oxidative stress, metabolic and locomotive toxicity, DNA replication dysfunction, and bioaccumulation. Finally, it was consulted the protocols for the control of risks, following the assessment and management process, as well as the classification system for technological alternatives and risk management measures of ENPs, which are useful for the transfer of technology and nanoparticles commercialization.

Abstract
Chitosan, a prestigious versatile biopolymer, has recently received considerable attention as a promising biosorbent for recovering gold ions, mainly Au(III), from aqueous solutions, particularly in modified forms. Confirming the assertion, this paper provides an up-to-date overview of Au(III) recovery from aqueous solutions by raw (unmodified) and modified chitosan. A particular emphasis is placed on the raw chitosan and its synthesis from chitin, characteristics of raw chitosan and their effects on metal sorption, modifications of raw chitosan for Au(III) sorption, and characterization of raw chitosan before and after modifications for Au(III) sorption. Comparisons of the sorption (conditions, percentage, capacity, selectivity, isotherms, thermodynamics, kinetics, and mechanisms), desorption (agents and percentage), and reusable properties between raw and modified chitosan in Au(III) recovery from aqueous solutions are also outlined and discussed. The major challenges and future prospects towards the large-scale applications of modified chitosan in Au(III) recovery from aqueous solutions are also addressed.

Abstract
Chemotherapy as the main cancer treatment method has non-specific effects and various side-effects. Accordingly, significant attempts have been conducted to enhance its efficacy through design and development of "smart" drug delivery systems (DDSs). In this context, natural gums, as a nice gift by the nature, can be exploited as stimuli-responsive DDSs for cancer treatment in part due to their renewability, availability, low cost, bioactivity, biocompatibility, low immunogenicity, biodegradability, and acceptable stability in both in vitro and in vivo conditions. However, some shortcomings (e.g., poor mechanical properties and high hydration rate) restrict their biomedical application ranges that can be circumvented through modification process (e.g., grafting of stimuli-responsive polymers or small molecules) to obtain tailored biomaterials. This review article aimed to compile the stimuli-responsive DDSs based on natural gums. In addition, different types of stimuli, the fundamental features of natural gums, as well as their chemical modification approaches are also shortly highlighted.

Abstract
The treatment of cancer includes several conventional therapies like surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, etc. but mostly associated with limitations like off-targeted action, fatigue and organ toxicity. The emergence of nanotechnology-enabled drug delivery systems shows revolutionary development to overcome the limitations of such therapies. Magnetic nanocomposites are the new area of research that consists of nanoscale magnetic materials for triggering the release of active in response to an external magnetic field. For targeted drug delivery and enhancing the biocompatibility, effective functionalization of magnetic nanocomposites is required. Therefore, several biological molecules like carbohydrate polymers, proteins, nucleic acids, antibodies, etc. are used. This review article focuses on the insights of advances in the development of carbohydrate-based magnetic nanocomposites for safe and effective cancer treatment. Carbohydrate-based magnetic nanocomposites offer significant advantages like greater stability, higher biocompatibility and lower toxicity with better physicochemical properties such as higher magnetic moments and anisotropy, larger heating properties, etc. Magnetic nanocomposites explore in almost all the areas of cancer therapeutics for drug delivery carrier, as antineoplastic and MRI contrast agents and in photothermal, photodynamic and in combinational therapies for the development of safer nanocarriers. Such progressive trend of carbohydrate-based magnetic nanocomposites will encourage the researchers for better site-specific delivery with higher safety profile in cancer therapy.

[PMID: 33171357 DOI: 10.1016/j.cis.2020.102298] [Citation(s) in RCA: 62] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2020] [Revised: 10/22/2020] [Accepted: 10/23/2020] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
Nowadays, metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) have been applied in various fields of nanotechnology including catalysis of chemical reactions, drug delivery, water treatment, textile industries, polymer composites, adhesives, and coatings. The greatest challenge in relation to metal oxide NPs is high tendency to aggregation. Chemical surface modification of metal oxide NPs has gained widely interest to control of dispersion and aggregation of NPs. Silane modifiers are one of the most important bifunctional modifiers that are frequently used for surface treatment of metal oxide NPs. In this review paper, we first focus on the synthesis, surface thermodynamic properties, surface modification techniques, and kinetic of silanization reaction of metal oxide NPs. Then, the recent development in using silane modifiers for treatment of metal oxide NPs in various applications were investigated. It was found that the unmodified NPs have high surface energy and are thermodynamically unstable. The thermodynamic properties of NPs including Gms, Hms, and Smsincrease with decreasing the particle size. Aggregation phenomena is the simple way to reduce the excess surface energy of NPs that leads to an increase in particle size. Therefore, the chemical surface modification of NPs using silane modifiers can be used as an effective method for the prevention of NPs agglomeration and improvement of NPs stability.

A Review on Chitosan's Uses as Biomaterial: Tissue Engineering, Drug Delivery Systems and Cancer Treatment. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2020; 13:E4995. [PMID: 33171898 PMCID: PMC7664280 DOI: 10.3390/ma13214995] [Citation(s) in RCA: 61] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2020] [Revised: 10/24/2020] [Accepted: 10/26/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Chitosan, derived from chitin, is a biopolymer consisting of arbitrarily distributed β-(1-4)-linked D-glucosamine and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine that exhibits outstanding properties- biocompatibility, biodegradability, non-toxicity, antibacterial activity, the capacity to form films, and chelating of metal ions. Most of these peculiar properties are attributed to the presence of free protonable amino groups along the chitosan backbone, which also gives it solubility in acidic conditions. Moreover, this biopolymer can also be physically modified, thereby presenting a variety of forms to be developed. Consequently, this polysaccharide is used in various fields, such as tissue engineering, drug delivery systems, and cancer treatment. In this sense, this review aims to gather the state-of-the-art concerning this polysaccharide when used as a biomaterial, providing information about its characteristics, chemical modifications, and applications. We present the most relevant and new information about this polysaccharide-based biomaterial's applications in distinct fields and also the ability of chitosan and its various derivatives to selectively permeate through the cancer cell membranes and exhibit anticancer activity, and the possibility of adding several therapeutic metal ions as a strategy to improve the therapeutic potential of this polymer.

Abstract
A smart hydrogel with pH/magnetic dual sensitivity was synthesized by in-situ synthesis of Fe3O4 inside carboxymethyl chitin hydrogel matrix prepared from Hericium erinaceus residue. The structure, pH/magnetic sensitivity, swelling and drug release behavior of the prepared hydrogels were investigated. The results showed that Fe3O4 nanoparticles were successfully synthesized and uniformly distributed within the hydrogels. The prepared hydrogels could be attracted by the magnet and exhibited sustained shrinkage behavior at low pH, with the desirable pH/magnetic sensitivity. The formed Fe3O4 could be developed inside the hydrogels by increasing the concentrations of precursor Fe2+/Fe3+ ions, and the magnetic sensitivity of hydrogels was enhanced, while the pH sensitivity and swelling degree were weakened. The Fe3O4 content-dependent behavior of the prepared hydrogels suggested the adjustable properties of hydrogels. The release of 5-Fu in simulated gastric and intestinal fluids followed the Fick diffusion mechanism and showed different release rates, indicating the pH-controlled drug release behavior.

Abstract
Multifunctional Fe3O4@Gd2O3:Tb3+@SiOx nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by co-precipitation and polyol methods. The synthesized nanoparticles were composed by cubic phase as core of Fe3O4 and Gd2O3:Tb3+ and the shell of amorphous SiOx. The composites exhibited a spherical shape with a diameter of 10-15 nm and highly uniform dispersion. They showed not only excellent fluorescence under excitation at a wavelength of 278 nm, but also strong magnetic responsiveness (MS = 24.040 emu g-1). The results of magnetic resonance imaging in vitro (r1 = 6.00 mm-1 s-1, r2 = 63.95 mm-1 s-1) showed that the samples could be used as T1-positive and T2-negative contrast agents. In addition, it was found that Fe3O4@Gd2O3:Tb3+@SiOx attains hyperthermia temperature (43 °C) in 90 s under the alternating current magnetic field, and their specific absorption rate (229.9 w g-1) was higher than that of Fe3O4 (183.92 w g-1). Hence, the multifunctional nanoparticle could be used for the diagnosis and therapy of cancer.

Abstract
In this communication, it was evaluated the production of fatty acid ethyl ester (FAAE) from the free fatty acids of babassu oil catalyzed by lipase from Rhizomucor miehei (RML) immobilized on magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) coated with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES), Fe3O4@APTES-RML or RML-MNP for short. MNPs were prepared by co-precipitation coated with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and used as a support to immobilize RML (immobilization yield: 94.7 ± 1.0%; biocatalyst activity: 341.3 ± 1.2 Up–NPB/g), which were also activated with glutaraldehyde and then used to immobilize RML (immobilization yield: 91.9 ± 0.2%; biocatalyst activity: 199.6 ± 3.5 Up–NPB/g). RML-MNP was characterized by X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD), Fourier Transform-Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), proving the incorporation and immobilization of RML on the APTES matrix. In addition, the immobilized biocatalyst presented at 60°C a half-life 16–19 times greater than that of the soluble lipase in the pH range 5–10. RML and RML-MNP showed higher activity at pH 7; the immobilized enzyme was more active than the free enzyme in the pH range (5–10) analyzed. For the production of fatty acid ethyl ester, under optimal conditions [40°C, 6 h, 1:1 (FFAs/alcohol)] determined by the Taguchi method, it was possible to obtain conversion of 81.7 ± 0.7% using 5% of RML-MNP.

Abstract
In the present study, a facile one-pot hydrothermal method is introduced for preparation of hyaluronic acid-coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4@HA NPs) for theranostic applications. In the proposed method, hyaluronic acid acts simultaneously as a biocompatible coating layer and as a targeting ligand for CD44 receptor overexpressed on the surface of breast cancer cells. The obtained product with narrow hydrodynamic size distribution exhibited a high colloidal stability at physiological pH for more than three months. Cytotoxicity measurements indicated a negligible toxicity of the prepared sample against L929 normal cells. Preferential targeting of Fe3O4@HA NPs to CD44-overexpressing cancer cells was studied by comparing the uptake of the prepared nanoparticles by MDA-MB-231 cancer cells (positive CD44 expression) and L929 normal cells (negative CD44 expression). Uptake of the Fe3O4@HA NPs by MDA-MB-231 cells was found to be 4-fold higher than the normal cells. Also, the in vitro analysis showed that, the uptake of Fe3O4@HA NPs by MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells is significantly enhanced as compared to non-targeted dextran-coated Fe3O4 NPs. Moreover, the heat generation capability of the Fe3O4@HA NPs for magnetic hyperthermia application was studied by exposing the prepared nanoparticles to different safe alternating magnetic fields (f = 120 kHz, H = 8, 10, and 12 kA/m). The intrinsic loss power obtained for Fe3O4@HA NPs was about 3.5 nHm2/kg, which is about 25-fold larger than that of obtained for commercial available Fe3O4 nanoparticles for biomedical applications. Good colloidal stability, biocompatibility, high heating efficacy, and targeting specificity to CD44 receptor-overexpressing cancer cells could make the Fe3O4@HA NPs as a promising multifunctional platform for diagnosis and therapeutic applications.

Abstract
This review is an extensive evaluation and essential analysis of the design and formation of hydrogels (HGs) for drug delivery. We review the fundamental principles of HGs (their chemical structures, physicochemical properties, synthesis routes, different types, etc.) that influence their biological properties and medical and pharmaceutical applications. Strategies for fabricating HGs with different diameters (macro, micro, and nano) are also presented. The size of biocompatible HG materials determines their potential uses in medicine as drug carriers. Additionally, novel drug delivery methods for enhancing treatment are discussed. A critical review is performed based on the latest literature reports.

Abstract
Asymmetric mesoporous silica nanoparticles with anisotropic geometry and dual-compartments are highly desired for loading and release of dual-drugs in separated storage spaces. In this study, an asymmetric lollipop-like mesoporous silica nanoparticle Fe3O4@SiO2&EPMO (EPMO = ethane bridged periodic mesoporous organosilica) was successfully developed via an anisotropic epitaxial growth strategy. The asymmetric nanoparticles show a uniform lollipop shape with a head of spherical Fe3O4@SiO2 core-shell that is 200 nm in diameter and a tail of EPMO nanorods with a length of ∼90 nm, and a specific surface area of ∼650.3 m2 g-1. Most importantly, the asymmetric nanoparticles possess the unique dual independent (hydrophilic/hydrophobic) spaces with good loading capacities and are significantly more efficient for cancer cell killing than pure drug based on in vitro studies. Additionally, the dual-drug-loaded nanoparticles exhibited excellent antibacterial activity.
