Abstract
Efficient lipase catalysis requires sufficient oil-water interface engineered through structural design. Inspired by the architectural features of fabrics, a novel lipase-membrane catalytic system with interwoven polyacrylic acid (PAA) gel fibers and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) gel fibers was developed in this study by using double-needle electrospinning and gelation. It has been demonstrated that PAA/PVP hybrid gel fiber membranes (HGFMs) have a high swelling capacity for both water and oil phases, which created numerous discontinuous oil-water contact surface units in limited space of HGFMs, consequently forming effective interfacial catalytic systems. Volume competition between the water and oil phases suggests that balancing the proportions of these phases is very important for effective construction of oil-water interfaces and conditioning catalysis. Regulation of multiple factors of PAA/PVP HGFMs resulted in a catalytic efficiency of up to 2.1 times that of a macroscopic "oil-up/water-down" system (room temperature, pH = 7), and 2.9 times when three membranes are superimposed, as well as excellent pH and temperature stability. HGFMs were stacked to build a high-performing catalytic performance reactor. We expect that this study will be a beneficial exploration for expanding the lipase catalytic system.

Abstract
The core task for lipase catalytic system design is to construct a suitable oil-water interface for lipase distribution. In comparison to the micro-oil-water interface, the macro-oil-water interface (top oil-bottom water) served as a simplified lipase catalytic system that is more in line with industrial applications but limited in catalytic efficiency. Based on the assumption that one potential carrier can help lipase reach to the macro-oil-water interface, in the current work, sandwich-type lipase-membrane bioreactors (SLMBs) fabricated by a facile layer-by-layer electrospinning process were reported. These SLMBs were composed of a hydrophilic polyamide 6 nanofibrous membrane (NFM) as the bottom layer, a blended electrospun lipase/PVA NFM as the middle layer, and a hydrophobic EC/PU NFM as the top layer. The lipase loading can be controlled by altering the electrospinning time of the middle layer. Under the optimized conditions, the catalytic efficiency of the SLMBs was 2.05 times higher than that of free lipase. In addition, the SLMBs exhibit much better pH (high activity over a broad pH range of 5-10), temperature (retained 62% at 80 °C), storage stability (no loss of activity after being stored at 4 °C for 11 days), and reusability (retained 23% after five cycles) than free lipase.

Abstract
We established a self-decomposable SiO₂ encapsulated mitochondrial targeting short peptide SS31 drug loading system (SiO₂@SS31) to determine its nano-sustained release characteristics in eukaryotic cells. We explored the protection of SiO₂@SS31 on the 661W cells after oxidative injury by H₂O₂. After the drug loading, we detected the morphology of SiO₂@SS31 by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Moreover, high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used to determine the drug capacity and encapsulation efficiency of the nanoparticles. Then, the release curve in vitro was drawn. The 661W cells were cultured in vitro to allow the detection of cytotoxicity by the MTT assay. The SS31loaded nanoscale microspheres labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate (SiO₂@FITC-SS31) were prepared, and their sustained release effect was detected with intracellular endocytosis, using confocal microscopy and flow cytometry. Within 15 days, the SiO2@SS31 nanoparticles were completely decomposed and simultaneously released the SS31 peptide in deionized water and normal saline. Nonetheless, the process was faster in simulated body fluid and serum. The MTT assay suggested that SiO₂@SS31 has sustained protection compared with SS31 in the 661W cells at 48 h. Flow cytometry proved SiO₂@FITC-SS31 could maintain a high level and last longer after 24 h. The SS31 peptide, which has excellent medical application prospects, can be slowly and continuously released from self-decomposable SiO₂ and targeted to concentrate on mitochondria.

Abstract
Lipase is one of the most widely used enzymes in biocatalysis. Because of the special structure of the catalytic active center, lipases show high catalytic activity at oil-water interfaces. Hence, the interface plays a key role in activating and modulating lipase biocatalysis. Compared with traditional catalytic systems that offer interfaces, such as emulsions, a lipase-membrane bioreactor exhibits many obvious advantages when at the macroscopic oil-water system. In our current research, a series of new Burkholderia cepacia lipase (BCL)-SiO2 nanofiber membrane (NFM) bioreactors prepared via combined electrospinning and immobilization strategies were reported. These SiO2 NFMs assisted BCL in reaching the oil-water interface for efficient catalysis. The enzyme loading capacity and catalytic efficiency of BCL-SiO2 NFMs varied with the surface hydrophobicity of the electrospun NFMs. As the hydrophobicity increased, the activity decreased from 2.43-fold to 0.74-fold that of free BCL. However, the lipase-loading capacity increased obviously when the hydrophobicity of the SiO2 NFMs increased from 0 to 143°, and no significant change was observed when the hydrophobicity of the SiO2 NFMs increased from 143 to 153°. The gel trapping technique proved that the hydrolytic activity of the different BCL-SiO2 NFM bioreactors depends on the contact area of the membrane at the oil-water interface. BCL-SiO2 NFM, BCL-SiO2 NFM-C12, and BCL-SiO2 NFM-C18 retained 32, 83, and 42% of activity, respectively, after five cycles of reuse. The current work was a useful exploration of the construction and modification of lipase-membrane reactors based on electrospun inorganic silicon.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The interfacial activation mechanism of lipase enables it to exhibit high catalytic activity in water-in-oil (W/O) microemulsions. However, W/O microemulsions have obvious defects such as a small water pool and a large demand for surfactants. The present study investigated the substitutability of conventional oil-in-water (O/W) and W/O emulsions as lipase catalytic systems. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs)/gold nanoparticles (GNPs) or CNT-GNP electrostatically bonded complexes were added into the conventional emulsion system. RESULTS The simulated biphasic system and fluorescence study showed different and even contradictory results for the interfacial behavior of CNTs and CNT-GNP complexes due to the variation of the dispersibility of CNTs in cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). Results also showed that conventional O/W emulsions were more suitable for lipase catalysis than conventional W/O emulsions. When CNTs or CNTCATB -GNP complexes were added in a conventional O/W emulsion system, the catalytic activity of lipase was significantly promoted (up to 4.8-fold using CNTs and 3.5-fold using CNTCATB -GNP complexes compared with free lipase). CONCLUSIONS The possible reason for this promotion may be due to the increase in the interface area. The current study was not only the latest exploration of lipase activity promotion via nanomaterials, but also explored a new lipase catalytic system and provides further insight into improving the catalytic performance of lipase in conventional emulsions. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
The objective of this feature article is to coalesce our recent advancements on different expressions of tailor-made supramolecular self-assemblies and to explore them as a function of molecular architecture. In the last decade, we have developed a library of elegant and simple functional amphiphilic small molecules, which have very interesting abilities to form diverse manifestations of supramolecular self-assemblies such as micelles, reverse micelles, vesicles, fibers, supramolecular gels, and so on. Each of the expressions of the self-aggregated structures has its individual prominence and finds important applications in the fields of chemistry, physics, biology, and others. In this feature article, the major emphasis is mostly on how to attain precise control over the development of various well-defined supramolecular self-assemblies through the judicious design of low-molecular-weight amphiphiles. By tuning only the functional moieties of the amphiphilic structure, diverse supramolecular architectures can be constructed with task-specific applications. We expect that this article will provide a general and conceptual demonstration of various approaches to the development of different functional supramolecular systems and their prospective applications in numerous domains.

Abstract
The interfacial property of reverse micelles is an important factor affecting the catalytic activity of enzymes hosted in the micelles. In this article, the effect of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) on the catalytic activity of laccase (non-surface-active enzyme) and the related mechanism are reported. It was found that laccase activity was dependent on the size of the particle and its concentration as well as on the water content and the concentration of AOT. It was shown that there existed several types of micelles in the present reverse micellar system in the presence of GNPs. The population of the various micelles depended on the concentrations of both GNPs and AOT. Fluorescence and circular dichroism spectra of laccase at different water contents and GNP concentrations indicated that the conformation of laccase and its activity were tuned by GNPs via changing the structure of the reverse micelles. Analysis showed that changes in the thickness of the water layer (Lw) and in the apparent occupied area of individual AOT molecules (AAOT) caused by GNPs were the main parameters affecting the activity of laccase. The present work extends and deepens the understanding of the tuning mechanism of GNPs on enzymatic performance in reverse micelles and provides guidance for rational design of the optimal microenvironment of laccase.

Abstract
The present article reports the development of soft nanohybrids comprising of single walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) included silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) having superior antibacterial property. In this regard aqueous dispersing agent of carbon nanotube (CNT) containing a silver ion reducing unit was synthesised by the inclusion of tryptophan and tyrosine within the backbone of the amphiphile. The dispersions were characterized spectroscopically and microscopically using TEM, AFM and Raman spectroscopy. The nanotube-nanoparticle conjugates were prepared by the in situ photoreduction of AgNO3. The phenolate residue and the indole moieties of tyrosine and tryptophan, respectively reduces the sliver ion as well as acts as stabilizing agents for the synthesized AgNPs. The nanohybrids were characterized using TEM and AFM. The antibacterial activity of the nanohybrids was studied against Gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis and Micrococcus luteus) and Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Klebsiella aerogenes). The SWCNT dispersions showed moderate killing ability (40-60%) against Gram-positive bacteria however no antibacterial activity was observed against the Gram negative ones. Interestingly, the developed SWCNT-amphiphile-AgNP nanohybrids exhibited significant killing ability (∼90%) against all bacteria. Importantly, the cell viability of these newly developed self-assemblies was checked towards chinese hamster ovarian cells and high cell viability was observed after 24 h of incubation. This specific killing of bacterial cells may have been achieved due to the presence of higher -SH containing proteins in the cell walls of the bacteria. The developed nanohybrids were subsequently infused into tissue engineering scaffold agar-gelatin films and the films similarly showed bactericidal activity towards both kinds of bacterial strains while allowing normal growth of eukaryotic cells on the surface of the films.

Abstract
Micelles are self-assembled aggregates that arrange themselves into spheres in aqueous media. When the surfactant concentration reaches the critical micelle concentration, extensive aggregation of the surfactant monomers occurs to form micelles. A micelle has both a hydrophilic and a hydrophobic part. This allows them to form a spherical shape and for their glycolipid and phospholipid components to form lipid bilayers. The importance of micelles is increasing because of their wide analytical applications. Recently, colloidal carrier systems have received much attention in the field of analytical chemistry, especially in luminescence enhancement applications.
