Abstract
Nanoparticles interacting with proteins to form protein corona represent one of the most fundamental problems in the rapid development of nanotechnology. In the past decade, thousands of studies have pointed out this issue. Within multi-protein systems, the formation of protein corona is a homeostasis process in which proteins compete for the limited surface sites of nanoparticles. Besides, the formation of protein corona generally shows a tendency of evolving with time and involves many different driving forces controlled by properties of nanoparticles, proteins and environment. Therefore, recent research on the dynamic process and mechanisms of protein corona formation in both animals and plants are summarized in this review. The factors that affect the formation and the techniques that commonly used for protein corona analysis are proposed. Furthermore, in order to provide reference for the future research, the limitations and challenges in protein corona studies are assessed and the future perspectives are proposed.

Abstract
Lignin derived from lignocellulosic biomass is the largest source of renewable bioaromatics present on earth and requires environmentally sustainable separation strategies to selectively obtain high-value degradation products. Applications of supramolecular interactions have the potential to isolate lignin compounds from biomass degradation fractions by the formation of variable inclusion complexes with cyclodextrins (CDs). CDs are commonly used as selective adsorbents for many applications and can capture guest molecules in their internal hydrophobic cavity. The strength of supramolecular interactions between CDs and lignin model compounds that represent potential lignocellulosic biomass degradation products can be characterized by assessing the thermodynamics of binding stability. Consequently, the inclusion interactions of β-CD and lignin model compounds G-(β-O-4')-G, G-(β-O-4')-truncG (guaiacylglycerol-β-guaiacyl ether), and G-(β-β')-G (pinoresinol) were investigated empirically by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and isothermal titration calorimetry, complemented by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Empirical results indicate that there are substantial differences in binding stability dependent on the linkage type. The lignin model β-β' dimer showed more potential bound states including 1:1, 2:1, and 1:2 (guest:host) complexation and, based on binding stability determinations, was consistently the most energetically favorable guest. Empirical results are supported by MD simulations that reveal that the capture of G-(β-β')-G by β-CD is promising with a 66% probability of being bound for G-(β-O-4')-truncG compared to 88% for G-(β-β')-G (unbiased distance trajectory and explicit counting of bound states). These outcomes indicate CDs as a promising material to assist in separations of lignin oligomers from heterogeneous mixtures for the development of environmentally sustainable isolations of lignin compounds from biomass fractions.

Abstract
![]()
Development of safer
nanomedicines for drug delivery applications
requires immense efforts to improve clinical outcomes. Targeting a
specific cell, biocompatibility and biodegradability are vital properties
of a nanoparticle to fulfill the safety criteria in medical applications.
Herein, we fabricate antibody-functionalized carnauba wax nanoparticles
encapsulated a hydrophobic drug mimetic, which is potentially interesting
for clinical use due to the inert and nontoxic properties of natural
waxes. The nanoparticles are synthesized applying miniemulsion methods
by solidifying molten wax droplets and further evaporating the solvent
from the dispersion. The pH-selective adsorption of antibodies (IgG1,
immunoglobulin G1, and CD340, an antihuman HER2 antibody) onto the
nanoparticle surface is performed for practical and effective functionalization,
which assists to overcome the complexity in chemical modification
of carnauba wax. The adsorption behavior of the antibodies is studied
using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), which gives thermodynamic
parameters including the enthalpy, association constant, and stoichiometry
of the functionalization process. Both antibodies exhibit strong binding
at pH 2.7. The CD340-decorated wax nanoparticles show specific cell
interaction toward BT474 breast cancer cells and retain the targeting
function even after 6 months of storage period.

Abstract
When nanoparticles were introduced into the biological media, the protein corona would be formed, which endowed the nanoparticles with new bio-identities. Thus, controlling protein corona formation is critical to in vivo therapeutic effect. Controlling the particle size is the most feasible method during design, and the influence of media pH which varies with disease condition is quite important. The impact of particle size and pH on bovine serum albumin (BSA) corona formation of solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) was studied here. The BSA corona formation of SLNs with increasing particle size (120-480 nm) in pH 6.0 and 7.4 was investigated. Multiple techniques were employed for visualization study, conformational structure study and mechanism study, etc. "BSA corona-caused aggregation" of SLN2‒3 was revealed in pH 6.0 while the dispersed state of SLNs was maintained in pH 7.4, which significantly affected the secondary structure of BSA and cell uptake of SLNs. The main interaction was driven by van der Waals force plus hydrogen bonding in pH 7.4, while by electrostatic attraction in pH 6.0, and size-dependent adsorption was confirmed. This study provides a systematic insight to the understanding of protein corona formation of SLNs.

Abstract
The search for novel surfactants or drug delivery systems able to improve the performance of old-generation antibiotics is a topic of great interest. Self-assembling amphiphilic calix[4]arene derivatives provide well-defined nanostructured systems that exhibit promising features for antibiotics delivery. In this work, we investigated the capability of two micellar polycationic calix[4]arene derivatives to recognize and host ofloxacin, chloramphenicol, or tetracycline in neutral aqueous solution. The formation of the nanoaggregates and the host–guest equilibria were examined by nano-isothermal titration calorimetry, dynamic light scattering, and mono- and bi-dimensional NMR. The thermodynamic characterization revealed that the calix[4]arene-based micellar aggregates are able to effectively entrap the model antibiotics and enabled the determination of both the species and the driving forces for the molecular recognition process. Indeed, the formation of the chloramphenicol–micelle adduct was found to be enthalpy driven, whereas entropy drives the formation of the adducts with both ofloxacin and tetracycline. NMR spectra corroborated ITC data about the positioning of the antibiotics in the calixarene nanoaggregates.

Nanoparticles
find increasing applications in life science and
biomedicine. The fate of nanoparticles in a biological system is determined
by their protein corona, as remodeling of their surface properties
through protein adsorption triggers specific recognition such as cell
uptake and immune system clearance and nonspecific processes such
as aggregation and precipitation. The corona is a result of nanoparticle–protein
and protein–protein interactions and is influenced by particle
design. The state-of-the-art design of biomedical nanoparticles is
the core–shell structure exemplified by superparamagnetic iron
oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) grafted with dense, well-hydrated polymer
shells used for biomedical magnetic imaging and therapy. Densely grafted
polymer chains form a polymer brush, yielding a highly repulsive barrier
to the formation of a protein corona via nonspecific
particle–protein interactions. However, recent studies showed
that the abundant blood serum protein albumin interacts with dense
polymer brush-grafted SPIONs. Herein, we use isothermal titration
calorimetry to characterize the nonspecific interactions between human
serum albumin, human serum immunoglobulin G, human transferrin, and
hen egg lysozyme with monodisperse poly(2-alkyl-2-oxazoline)-grafted
SPIONs with different grafting densities and core sizes. These particles
show similar protein interactions despite their different “stealth”
capabilities in cell culture. The SPIONs resist attractive interactions
with lysozymes and transferrins, but they both show a significant
exothermic enthalpic and low exothermic entropic interaction with
low stoichiometry for albumin and immunoglobulin G. Our results highlight
that protein size, flexibility, and charge are important to predict
protein corona formation on polymer brush-stabilized nanoparticles.

Abstract
Protein purification is of vital importance in the food industry, drug discovery, and other related fields. Among many separation methods, polyelectrolyte (PE)-based phase separation was developed and recognized as a low-cost purification technique. In this work, spherical polyelectrolyte brushes (SPBs) with a high specific surface area were utilized to study the protein accessibility and selective protein binding on highly charged nanoparticles (NPs) as well as the selective phase separation of proteins. The correlation between charge anisotropy, protein binding, and phase separation was investigated on various protein systems including those proteins with similar isoelectric points (pI) such as bovine serum albumin (BSA) and β-lactoglobulin (BLG), proteins with similar molecular weights such as BSA and hemoglobin (HB), and even protein variants (BLG-A and -B) with a tiny difference of amino acids. The nonspecific electrostatic interaction studied by turbidimetric titrations and isothermal calorimetry titration (ITC) indicates a specific binding between proteins and SPBs arising from the charge anisotropy of proteins. An optimized output based on selective protein binding on SPBs could be correlated for efficient protein separation through tuning external conditions including pH and ionic strength. These findings, therefore, proved that phase separation based on selective protein adsorption by SPBs was an efficient alternative for protein separation compared with the traditional practice.

Abstract
Acidic environments, such as in inflamed tissues, favor the charged form of local anesthetics (LA). Hence, these drugs show less cell permeation and diminished potency. Since the analgesic capsaicin (CAP) triggers opening of the TRPV1 receptor pore, its combination with LAs could result in better uptake and improved anesthesia. We tested the above hypothesis and report here for the first time the analgesia effect of a two-drug combination (LA and CAP) on an inflamed tissue. First, CAP solubility increased up to 20 times with hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD), as shown by the phase solubility study. The resulting complex (HP-β-CD-CAP) showed 1:1 stoichiometry and high association constant, according to phase-solubility diagrams and isothermal titration calorimetry data. The inclusion complex formation was also confirmed and characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction, and 1H-NMR. The freeze-dried complex showed physicochemical stability for at least 12 months. To test in vivo performance, we used a pain model based on mouse paw edema. Results showed that 2% mepivacaine injection failed to anesthetize mice inflamed paw, but its combination with complexed CAP resulted in pain control up to 45 min. These promising results encourages deeper research of CAP as an adjuvant for anesthesia in inflamed tissues and cyclodextrin as a solubilizing agent for targeting molecules in drug delivery.

Abstract
Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) is a complementary technique that can be used for investigations of protein adsorption on nanomaterials, as it quantifies the thermodynamic parameters of intermolecular interactions in situ. As soon as nanomaterials enter biological media, a corona of proteins forms around the nanomaterials, which influences the surface properties and therefore the behavior of nanomaterials tremendously. ITC enhances our understanding of nanoparticle-protein interactions, as it provides information on binding affinity (in form of association constant Ka), interaction mechanism (in form of binding enthalpy ΔH, binding entropy ΔS and Gibbs free energy ΔG) and binding stoichiometry n. Therefore, as a complementary method, ITC enhances our mechanistic understanding of the protein corona. In this minireview, the information obtained from a multitude of ITC studies regarding different nanomaterials and proteins are gathered and relations between nanomaterials' properties and their resulting interactions undergone with proteins are deduced. Nanomaterials formed of a hydrophilic material without strongly charged surface and steric stabilization experience the weakest interactions with proteins. As a result, such nanomaterials undergo the least unspecific protein-interactions and are most promising for allowing an engineering of the protein corona.

Abstract
In recent years, the rapid growth and availability of protein and peptide therapeutics has not only expanded the boundaries of modern science but has also revolutionized the practice of medicine today. The potential of such therapies, however, is greatly limited by the innate instabilities of proteins and peptides, which is further magnified during therapeutic formulation processing, transport, storage, and administration. In this paper, we will consider the unique stability challenges associated with protein/peptide polymeric delivery systems from an engineering approach oriented towards the quantification and modification of amino acid-based cargo stability. While a number of methods have been developed for the purposes of quantifying factors affecting protein and peptide stability, current measurement techniques remain largely limited in scope in regard to polymeric drug delivery systems. This paper will primarily describe the influence of water content, pH, and temperature on protein and peptide stability within polymer-based delivery systems. Moreover, we will review current instrumentation used to quantify factors affecting protein/peptide stability with respect to water content, pH, and temperature. Lastly, we will outline several recommendations to help guide future research efforts to develop methods more specific to quantifying protein/peptide stability within polymer-based delivery systems.

Abstract
Bacteria exposed to stress mediated by sublethal antibiotic concentrations respond by adaptive mechanisms leading to an overall increase of antibiotic resistance. One of these mechanisms involves the release of bacterial proteins called lipocalins, which have the ability to sequester antibiotics in the extracellular space before they reach bacterial cells. We speculated that interfering with lipocalin-mediated antibiotic binding could enhance the efficacy of antibiotics to kill bacteria. In this work, we report that when combined with bactericidal antibiotics, vitamin E contributes to enhance bacterial killing both in vitro and in vivo. This adjuvant effect of vitamin E requires the presence of BcnA, a bacterial lipocalin produced by the cystic fibrosis pathogen Burkholderia cenocepacia. Since most bacteria produce lipocalins like BcnA, we propose that our findings could be translated into making novel antibiotic adjuvants to potentiate bacterial killing by existing antibiotics. Burkholderia cenocepacia is an opportunistic Gram-negative bacterium that causes serious respiratory infections in patients with cystic fibrosis. Recently, we discovered that B. cenocepacia produces the extracellular bacterial lipocalin protein BcnA upon exposure to sublethal concentrations of bactericidal antibiotics. BcnA captures a range of antibiotics outside bacterial cells, providing a global extracellular mechanism of antimicrobial resistance. In this study, we investigated water-soluble and liposoluble forms of vitamin E as inhibitors of antibiotic binding by BcnA. Our results demonstrate that in vitro, both vitamin E forms bind strongly to BcnA and contribute to reduce the MICs of norfloxacin (a fluoroquinolone) and ceftazidime (a β-lactam), both of them used as model molecules representing two different chemical classes of antibiotics. Expression of BcnA was required for the adjuvant effect of vitamin E. These results were replicated in vivo using the Galleria mellonella larva infection model whereby vitamin E treatment, in combination with norfloxacin, significantly increased larva survival upon infection in a BcnA-dependent manner. Together, our data suggest that vitamin E can be used to increase killing by bactericidal antibiotics through interference with lipocalin binding.

Abstract
Core-shell nanoparticles receive much attention for their current and potential applications in life sciences. Commonly, a dense shell of hydrated polymer, a polymer brush, is grafted to improve colloidal stability of functional nanoparticles and to prevent protein adsorption, aggregation, cell recognition, and uptake. Until recently, it was widely assumed that a polymer brush shell indeed prevents strong association of proteins and that this leads to their superior "stealth" properties in vitro and in vivo. We show using T-dependent isothermal titration calorimetry on well-characterized monodisperse superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles with controlled dense stealth polymer brush shells that "stealth" core-shell nanoparticles display significant attractive exothermic and enthalpic interactions with serum proteins, despite having excellent colloidal stability and negligible nonspecific cell uptake. This observation is at room temperature shown to depend only weakly on variation of iron oxide core diameter and type of grafted stealth polymer: poly(ethylene glycol), poly(ethyl oxazoline), poly(isopropyl oxazoline), and poly( N-isopropyl acrylamide). Polymer brush shells with a critical solution temperature close to body temperature showed a strong temperature dependence in their interactions with proteins with a significant increase in protein binding energy with increased temperature. The stoichiometry of interaction is estimated to be near 1:1 for PEGylated nanoparticles and up to 10:1 for larger thermoresponsive nanoparticles, whereas the average free energy of interaction is enthalpically driven and comparable to a weak hydrogen bond.

Abstract
Stimulation of plant innate immunity by natural and synthetic elicitors is a promising alternative to conventional pesticides for a more sustainable agriculture. Sugar-based bolaamphiphiles are known for their biocompatibility, biodegradability and low toxicity. In this work, we show that Synthetic Rhamnolipid Bolaforms (SRBs) that have been synthesized by green chemistry trigger Arabidopsis innate immunity. Using structure-function analysis, we demonstrate that SRBs, depending on the acyl chain length, differentially activate early and late immunity-related plant defense responses and provide local increase in resistance to plant pathogenic bacteria. Our biophysical data suggest that SRBs can interact with plant biomimetic plasma membrane and open the possibility of a lipid driven process for plant-triggered immunity by SRBs.

Abstract
Complexation of linear alginate polyanions with different classes of crosslinkers (divalent cations, polycations, positively charged surfactants) was investigated, to unravel their effects on nanoparticle formation. The goal was to define the crosslinker-to-alginate molar ratios at which nanoparticles are formed, and to reveal the underlying thermodynamics and molecular interactions using dynamic and electrophoretic light scattering, isothermal titration calorimetry, and infrared spectroscopy. Alginate nanoparticles were formed across a limited range of molar ratios that was specific for each crosslinker, and had different size and stability. Thermodynamic parameters of alginate complexation with crosslinkers showed that nanoparticle formation was in all cases entropy driven, together with a minor enthalpic contribution. The crosslinking mechanism was based on ionic interactions, with accompanying weaker interactions specific for each crosslinker, and involved characteristic macroscopic association constants (Ka1) for complexation of alginate (range, 104-109M-1). Additionally, the ionic strengths of the media influenced the characteristics and stabilities of the polyelectrolyte nanoparticles.

Abstract
Most therapeutic agents suffer from poor solubility, rapid clearance from the blood stream, a lack of targeting, and often poor translocation ability across cell membranes. Drug/gene delivery systems (DDSs) are capable of overcoming some of these barriers to enhance delivery of drugs to their right place of action, e.g. inside cancer cells. In this review, we focus on nanoparticles as DDSs. Complementary experimental and computational studies have enhanced our understanding of the mechanism of action of nanocarriers and their underlying interactions with drugs, biomembranes and other biological molecules. We review key biophysical aspects of DDSs and discuss how computer modeling can assist in rational design of DDSs with improved and optimized properties. We summarize commonly used experimental techniques for the study of DDSs. Then we review computational studies for several major categories of nanocarriers, including dendrimers and dendrons, polymer-, peptide-, nucleic acid-, lipid-, and carbon-based DDSs, and gold nanoparticles. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Membrane Proteins edited by J.C. Gumbart and Sergei Noskov.

Abstract
Molecular recognition, which is the process of biological macromolecules interacting with each other or various small molecules with a high specificity and affinity to form a specific complex, constitutes the basis of all processes in living organisms. Proteins, an important class of biological macromolecules, realize their functions through binding to themselves or other molecules. A detailed understanding of the protein–ligand interactions is therefore central to understanding biology at the molecular level. Moreover, knowledge of the mechanisms responsible for the protein-ligand recognition and binding will also facilitate the discovery, design, and development of drugs. In the present review, first, the physicochemical mechanisms underlying protein–ligand binding, including the binding kinetics, thermodynamic concepts and relationships, and binding driving forces, are introduced and rationalized. Next, three currently existing protein-ligand binding models—the “lock-and-key”, “induced fit”, and “conformational selection”—are described and their underlying thermodynamic mechanisms are discussed. Finally, the methods available for investigating protein–ligand binding affinity, including experimental and theoretical/computational approaches, are introduced, and their advantages, disadvantages, and challenges are discussed.

Abstract
Nonviral gene delivery, provides distinct treatment modalities for the inherited and acquired diseases, relies upon the encapsulation of a gene of interest, which is then ideally delivered to the target cells. Variations in the chemical structure of gemini surfactants and subsequent physicochemical characteristics of the gemini-based lipoplexes and their impact on efficient gene transfection were assessed in part I, which was published in first March 2016 issue of Nanomedicine (1103). In order to design an efficient vector using gemini surfactants, the interaction of the surfactant with DNA and other components of the delivery system must be characterized, and more critically, well understood. Such studies will help to understand how nonviral transfection complexes, in general, overcome various cellular barriers. The Langmuir-Blodgett monolayer studies, atomic force microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, isothermal titration calorimetry, small-angle x-ray scattering, are extensively used to evaluate the interaction behavior of gemini surfactants with DNA and other vector components. Part II of this review focuses on the use of these unique techniques to understand their interaction with DNA.

Abstract
The influence of perfume molecules on the self-assembly of the anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and their localization in SDS micelles have been investigated by ζ potential, small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), one- and two-dimensional NMR and isothermal titration microcalorimetry (ITC). A broad range of perfume molecules varying in octanol/water partition coefficients P are employed. The results indicate that the surface charge, size and aggregation number of the SDS micelles strongly depend on the hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity degree of perfume molecules. Three distinct regions along the log P values are identified. Hydrophilic perfumes (log P < 2.0) partially incorporate into the SDS micelles and do not lead to micelle swelling, whereas hydrophobic perfumes (log P > 3.5) are solubilized close to the end of the hydrophobic chains in the SDS micelles and enlarge the micelles with higher ζ potential and a larger aggregation number. The incorporated fraction and micelle properties show increasing tendency for the perfumes in the intermediate log P region (2.0 < log P < 3.5). Besides, the molecular conformation of perfume molecules also affects these properties. The perfumes with a linear chain structure or an aromatic group can penetrate into the palisade layer and closely pack with the SDS molecules. Furthermore, the thermodynamic parameters obtained from ITC show that the binding of the perfumes in the intermediate log P region is more spontaneous than those in the other two log P regions, and the micellization of SDS with the perfumes is driven by entropy.

Use of isothermal titration calorimetry to study surfactant aggregation in colloidal systems. Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj 2015; 1860:999-1016. [PMID: 26459003 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbagen.2015.10.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 74] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2015] [Revised: 09/23/2015] [Accepted: 10/07/2015] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) is a general technique that allows for precise and highly sensitive measurements. These measurements may provide a complete and accurate thermodynamic description of association processes in complex systems such as colloidal mixtures. SCOPE OF THE REVIEW This review will address uses of ITC for studies of surfactant aggregation to form micelles, with emphasis on the thermodynamic studies of homologous surfactant series. We will also review studies on surfactant association with polymers of different molecular characteristics and with colloidal particles. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE ITC studies on the association of different homologous series of surfactants provide quantitative information on independent contribution from their apolar hydrocarbon chains and polar headgroups to the different thermodynamic functions associated with micellization (Gibbs energy, enthalpy and entropy). Studies on surfactant association to polymers by ITC provide a comprehensive description of the association process, including examples in which particular features revealed by ITC were elucidated by using ancillary techniques such as light or X-ray scattering measurements. Examples of uses of ITC to follow surfactant association to biomolecules such as proteins or DNA, or nanoparticles are also highlighted. Finally, recent theoretical models that were proposed to analyze ITC data in terms of binding/association processes are discussed. MAJOR CONCLUSIONS This review stresses the importance of using direct calorimetric measurements to obtain and report accurate thermodynamic data, even in complex systems. These data, whenever possible, should be confirmed and associated with other ancillary techniques that allow elucidation of the nature of the transformations detected by calorimetric results, providing a complete description of the process under scrutiny.

Abstract
We present a comprehensive study of the interaction of human serum albumin (HSA) with poly(acrylic acid) (PAA; number average degree of polymerization: 25) in aqueous solution. The interaction of HSA with PAA is studied in dilute solution as a function of the concentration of added salt (20-100 mM) and temperature (25-37 °C). Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) is used to analyze the interaction and to determine the binding constant and related thermodynamic data. It is found that only one PAA chain is bound per HSA molecule. The free energy of binding ΔGb increases with temperature significantly. ΔGb decreases with increasing salt concentration and is dominated by entropic contributions due to the release of bound counterions. Coarse-grained Langevin computer simulations treating the counterions in an explicit manner are used to study the process of binding in detail. These simulations demonstrate that the PAA chains are bound in the Sudlow II site of HSA. Moreover, ΔGb is calculated from the simulations and found to be in very good agreement with the measured data. The simulations demonstrate clearly that the driving force of binding is the release of counterions in full agreement with the ITC-data.

Abstract
Here we demonstrate how a complementary analysis of nanocapsule-protein interactions with and without application media allows gaining insights into the so called hard and soft protein corona. We have investigated how both human plasma and individual proteins (human serum albumin (HSA), apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I)) adsorb and interact with hydroxyethyl starch (HES) nanocapsules possessing different functionalities. To analyse the hard protein corona we used sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and a protein quantitation assay. No significant differences were observed with regards to the hard protein corona. For analysis of the soft protein corona we characterized the nanocapsule-protein interaction with isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and dynamic light scattering (DLS). DLS and ITC measurements revealed that a high amount of plasma proteins were adsorbed onto the capsules' surface. Although HSA was not detected in the hard protein corona, ITC measurements indicated the adsorption of an HSA amount similar to plasma with a low binding affinity and reaction heat. In contrast, only small amounts of ApoA-I protein adsorb to the capsules with high binding affinities. Through a comparison of these methods we have identified ApoA-I to be a component of the hard protein corona and HSA as a component of the soft corona. We demonstrate a pronounced difference in the protein corona observed depending on the type of characterization technique applied. As the biological identity of a particle is given by the protein corona it is crucial to use complementary characterization techniques to analyse different aspects of the protein corona.

Abstract
The stabilization of oil in water nano-emulsions by means of a polymer coating is extremely important; it prolongs the shelf life of the product and makes it suitable for a variety of applications ranging from nutraceutics to cosmetics and pharmaceutics. To date, an effective methodology to assess the best formulations in terms of thermodynamic stability has yet to be designed. Here, we perform a complete physicochemical characterization based on isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) compared to conventional dynamic light scattering (DLS) to identify polymer concentration domains that are thermodynamically stable and to define the degree of stability through thermodynamic functions depending upon any relevant parameter affecting the stability itself, such as type of polymer coating, droplet distance, etc. For instance, the method was proven by measuring the energetics in the case of two different biopolymers, chitosan and poly-L-lysine, and for different concentrations of the emulsion coated with poly-L-lysine.

Abstract
The behavior of pH-responsive polymers poly(N-methacryloyl-l-valine) (P1), poly(N-methacryloyl-l-phenylalanine) (P2), and poly(N-methacryloylglycyne-l-leucine) (P3) has been studied in the presence of the nonionic surfactant Brij98. The pure polymers phase-separate in an acidic medium with critical pHtr values of 3.7, 5.5, and 3.4, respectively. The addition of the surfactant prevents phase separation and promotes reorganization of polymer molecules. The nature of the interaction between polymer and surfactant depends on the amino acid structure in the side chain of the polymer. This effect was investigated by dynamic light scattering, isothermal titration calorimetry, electrophoretic measurements, small-angle neutron scattering, and infrared spectroscopy. Thermodynamic analysis revealed an endothermic association reaction in P1/Brij98 mixture, whereas a strong exothermic effect was observed for P2/Brij98 and P3/Brij98. Application of regular solution theory for the analysis of experimental enthalpograms indicated dominant hydrophobic interactions between P1 and Brij98 and specific interactions for the P2/Brij98 system. Electrophoretic and dynamic light scattering measurements support the applicability of the theory to these cases. The specific interactions can be ascribed to hydrogen bonds formed between the carboxylic groups of the polymer and the oligo(ethylene oxide) head groups of the surfactant. Thus, differences in polymer-surfactant interactions between P1 and P2 polymers result in different structures of polymer-surfactant complexes. Specifically, small-angle neutron scattering revealed pearl-necklace complexes and "core-shell" structures for P1/Brij98 and P2/Brij98 systems, respectively. These results may help in the design of new pH-responsive site-specific micellar drug delivery systems or pH-responsive membrane-disrupting agents.

Abstract
We report on the inclusion complex formation of β-cyclodextrin (βCD) with a cocogem surfactant (counterion-coupled gemini surfactant; (bis(4-(2-alkyl)benzenesulfonate)-Jeffamine salt, abbreviated as ABSJ), studied by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and surface tension (SFT) measurements. We measured the critical micelle concentration (cmc) of ABSJ in water by the two experimental techniques in the temperature range 283-343 K, and determined the thermodynamic parameters of the complex formation directly by ITC and indirectly by the SFT. The stoichiometry (N), the binding constant (K), and the enthalpy of complexation were determined, and the Gibbs free energy and the entropy term were calculated from the experimental data. A novel method is presented for the determination of N and K by using surface tensiometry.
