Abstract
As pivotal role of scaffold in tissue engineering (TE), the aim of present study was to design and development of extracellular matrix (ECM)-mimetic electrically conductive nanofibrous scaffolds composed of polyaniline-grafted tragacanth gum (TG-g-PANI) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) with different PANI content for skin tissue engineering (STE) application. The fabricated scaffolds were preliminary evaluated in terms of some physicochemical and biological properties. Cytocompatibility and cells proliferation properties of the scaffolds were examined with the well-known MTT assay, and it was found that the developed scaffolds have proper cytocompatibilities and can enhances the mouse fibroblast L929 cells adhesion as well as proliferation, which confirm their potential for STE applications. Hemocompatibility assay revealed that the hemolysis rate of the fabricated scaffolds were <2 % even at a relatively high concentration (200 μgmL-1) of samples, therefore, these scaffolds can be considered as safe. Human serum albumin (HSA) protein adsorption capacities of the fabricated scaffolds were quantified as 42 and 49 μgmg-1 that represent suitable values for a successful TE. Overall, the fabricated scaffold with 20 wt% of TG-g-PANI showed higher potential in both physicochemical and biological features than scaffold with 30 wt% of mentioned copolymer for STE application.

Development of electrospun nanofibers based on Poly (vinyl alcohol) for thin film solid-phase microextraction of antidepressant drugs in biological samples. J Chromatogr A 2023; 1697:463984. [PMID: 37084693 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2023.463984] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2023] [Revised: 03/29/2023] [Accepted: 04/07/2023] [Indexed: 04/23/2023]
Abstract
Today, antidepressants are widely used and it is important to determine their trace amounts due to harmful consequences. Here, a new nano sorbent was reported for the simultaneous extraction and determination of three types of antidepressant drugs (Clomipramine (CLO), Clozapine (CLZ), and Trimipramine (TRP) by the thin-film solid-phase micro-extraction (TFME-μSPE) method followed by the Gas Chromatography-flame ionization detector (GC-FID) analysis. So, the compound poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/citric acid(CA)/β-cyclodextrin/Bi2S3@g-C3N4 nano sorbent was constructed by electrospinning technique. Then, nano sorbent was studied to optimize the many parameters impacting the extraction performance. Electrospun nanofiber has a large surface area, high porosity, and homogeneous morphology with a uniform bead-free structure. In optimal conditions, the limits of detection and quantification were calculated to be 0.15-0.03 ng mL-1 and 0.5-0.1 ng mL-1, respectively. The dynamic linear range (DLR) was in the range of 0.1 to 1000 ng mL-1 for CLO and CLZ, and 0.5 to 1000 ng mL-1 for TRP with correlation coefficients (R2) of 0.999. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) were achieved in the range of 4.9-6.8% (intra-day, n = 4) and 5.4-7.9% (inter-day, n = 3) in the period of 3 days. Finally, the capability of the method was evaluated to simultaneously measure trace amounts of antidepressants aqueous sample with desirable extraction efficiency (78 to 95%).

Abstract
Gums are polysaccharide compounds obtained from natural sources, such as plants, algae and bacteria. Because of their excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability, as well as their ability to swell and their sensitivity to degradation by the colon microbiome, they are regarded as interesting potential drug carriers. In order to obtain properties differing from the original compounds, blends with other polymers and chemical modifications are usually applied. Gums and gum-derived compounds can be applied in the form of macroscopic hydrogels or can be formulated into particulate systems that can deliver the drugs via different administration routes. In this review, we present and summarize the most recent studies regarding micro- and nanoparticles obtained with the use of gums extensively investigated in pharmaceutical technology, their derivatives and blends with other polymers. This review focuses on the most important aspects of micro- and nanoparticulate systems formulation and their application as drug carriers, as well as the challenges related to these formulations.

Abstract
Intracellular H2S plays an important regulatory role in cell metabolism. The limited sensing materials and severe sensor passivation hinder its quantification. We functionalized conductive nanowires with MoS2 and quercetin in a large-scale manner, developed single nanowire sensors with excellent electrocatalytic and anti-poisoning performance, and achieved the accurate quantification of H2S within single cells.

Abstract
This paper presents the coating technology on Nano membrane using SiC-TiO2-Graphene with varying percentages of Azadirachta indica (Neem) extract with an objective to develop new coating materials. The nanomembranes have been synthesized by electrospinning machine over aluminum foil paper using the raw materials PVA grain, SiC, TiO2, Graphene, and neem. The nanomembranes have been characterized by SEM, XRD, FTIR, Surface Roughness, antibacterial, and Cytotoxicity test. FTIR analysis established the presence of PVA and neem indicating the formation of different organic compounds. It also confirmed that no chemical reaction occurred during the synthesis process. The membrane's roughness analysis obtained average roughness values from 1.15 to 3.84. The formation of homogeneous and smooth membranes with the formation of micropores was confirmed by SEM analysis. Miller Indices identified different types of crystal structures in XRD analysis. Antibacterial activity increased with the increase of the percentage of neem confirmed by the antibacterial test. No toxic effects were observed from the membrane during the cytotoxicity test. The obtained data confirmed that the synthesized nanomembrane could be used in different biomedical applications.

Abstract
Defects and disorders of the bone due to disease, trauma, or abnormalities substantially affect a person's life quality. Research in bone tissue engineering is motivated to address these clinical needs. The present study demonstrates casein-mediated liquid exfoliation of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) and its coupling with alginate to create microspheres to engineer bone graft substitutes. Casein-exfoliated nano-MoS2 was chemically characterized using different analytical techniques. The UV-visible spectrum of nano-MoS2-2 displayed strong absorption peaks at 610 and 668 nm. In addition, the XPS spectra confirmed the presence of the molybdenum (Mo, 3d), sulfur (S, 2p), carbon (C, 1s), oxygen (O, 1s), and nitrogen (N, 1s) elements. The exfoliated MoS2 nanosheets were biocompatible with the MG-63, MC3T3-E1, and C2C12 cells at 250 μg/mL concentration. Further, microspheres were created using alginate, and they were characterized physiochemically and biologically. Stereomicroscopic images showed that the microspheres were spherical with an average diameter of 1 ± 0.2 mm. The dispersion of MoS2 in the alginate matrix was uniform. The alginate-MoS2 microspheres promoted apatite formation in the SBF (simulated body fluid) solution. Moreover, the alginate-MoS2 was biocompatible with MG-63 cells and promoted cell proliferation. Higher alkaline phosphatase activity and mineralization were observed on the alginate-MoS2 with the MG-63 cells. Hence, the developed alginate-MoS2 microsphere could be a potential candidate for a bone graft substitute.

Abstract
Wound healing is a complex process that is critical in restoring the skin's barrier function. This process can be interrupted by numerous diseases resulting in chronic wounds that represent a major medical burden. Such wounds fail to follow the stages of healing and are often complicated by a pro‐inflammatory milieu attributed to increased proteinases, hypoxia, and bacterial accumulation. The comprehensive treatment of chronic wounds is still regarded as a significant unmet medical need due to the complex symptoms caused by the metabolic disorder of the wound microenvironment. As a result, several advanced medical devices, such as wound dressings, wearable wound monitors, negative pressure wound therapy devices, and surgical sutures, have been developed to correct the chronic wound environment and achieve skin tissue regeneration. Most medical devices encompass a wide range of products containing natural (e.g., chitosan, keratin, casein, collagen, hyaluronic acid, alginate, and silk fibroin) and synthetic (e.g., polyvinyl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, poly[lactic‐co‐glycolic acid], polycaprolactone, polylactic acid) polymers, as well as bioactive molecules (e.g., chemical drugs, silver, growth factors, stem cells, and plant compounds). This review addresses these medical devices with a focus on biomaterials and applications, aiming to deliver a critical theoretical reference for further research on chronic wound healing.
