Abstract
During the struvite recovery process, Cd, a hazardous metal commonly found in waste streams, can be sequestered by struvite. This study investigated the influence of Cd2+ on the precipitation of struvite. Quantitative X-ray diffraction (QXRD) results showed that the purity of struvite decreased from 99.1% to 73.6% as Cd concentration increased from 1 to 500 μM. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed a roughened surface of struvite, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis indicated that the peak area ratio of Cd-OH increased from 19.4% to 51.3%, while the area ratio of Cd-PO4 decreased from 86.6% to 48.7% as Cd concentrations increased from 10 to 500 μM. The findings suggested that Cd2+ disrupted the crystal growth of struvite, and mainly combined with -OH and -PO4 to form amorphous Cd-bearing compounds co-precipitated with struvite. Additionally, Mg-containing amorphous phases were formed by incorporating Mg2+ with -OH and -PO4 during struvite formation.

Abstract
Struvite precipitation is a promising strategy for the simultaneous recovery of nitrogen and phosphorus from waste streams. However, waste streams typically contain high amounts of metal contaminants, including Ni, which can be easily sequestered by struvite, but the behavior of Ni during struvite precipitation remains unclear. Thus, this study investigates the influence of Ni concentrations on struvite precipitation. The quantitative X-ray diffraction (QXRD) results revealed that the purity of struvite decreased from 96.6 to 41.1% with the Ni concentrations increased from 0.1-100 mg·L-1. At lower Ni concentrations of 0.1-1 mg·L-1, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed a roughened surface of struvite crystal, and this was combined with X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) data that indicated a stack of Ni-OH and Ni-PO4 on struvite surface. At Ni concentrations of 10-25 mg·L-1, Ni primarily crystalized as Ni-struvite (NiNH4PO4·6H2O), as detected by QXRD. At higher Ni concentrations of 25-100 mg·L-1, the co-precipitation of amorphous Ni phosphate(s) (e.g., Ni3(PO4)2) and Ni hydroxide (e.g., Ni(OH)2) was identified by XANES. Specifically, the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis detected the formation of amorphous Mg hydroxide(s) and phosphate(s) at Ni of 25-100 mg·L-1. The overall results revealed that Ni formed Ni-OH and Ni-PO4 on struvite surface at 0.1-1 mg·L-1, whereas Ni precipitated as separated phases (e.g. Ni-struvite, Ni hydroxide and phosphate) at 10-100 mg·L-1. The existence of Ni disturbed the crystal growth of struvite and promoted the formation of Ni-struvite, amorphous products during struvite formation.

Abstract
Although guided tissue regeneration (GTR) is a useful tool for regenerating lost tissue as bone and periodontal tissue, a biocompatible membrane capable of regenerating large defects has yet to be discovered. This study aimed to characterize the physicochemical properties and biological compatibility of polycaprolactone (PCL) membranes associated with or without nanostructured hydroxyapatite (HA) (PCL/HA) and Zn-doped HA (PCL/ZnHA), produced by electrospinning. PCL, PCL/HA, and PCL/ZnHA were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Nanoparticles of HA or ZnHA were homogeneously distributed and dispersed inside the PCL fibers, which decreased the fiber thickness. At 1 wt% of HA or ZnHA, these nanoparticles acted as nucleating agents. Moreover, HA and ZnHA increased the onset of the degradation temperature and thermal stability of the electrospun membrane. All tested membranes showed no cytotoxicity and allowed murine pre-osteoblast adhesion and spreading; however, higher concentrations of PCL/ZnHA showed less cells and an irregular cell morphology compared to PCL and PCL/HA. This article presents a cytocompatible, electrospun, nanocomposite membrane with a novel morphology and physicochemical properties that make it eligible as a scaffold for GTR.

Abstract
Struvite precipitated from wastewaters is an important fertilizer. However, struvite derived from wastewater usually contains toxic Pb, which can bring contamination to soil and even plants. Thus, understanding the incorporation mechanisms of Pb2+ during struvite precipitation is critical to its safe application. Here the influence of Pb concentration on struvite precipitation was assessed. When the initial Pb concentrations were at the range of 0.1-1 mg/L, the formation of pitting and roughening on struvite crystal surfaces was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), indicating a surface interaction between Pb and struvite. Combined with X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), the results confirmed that the formed Pb-enriched layer with Pb-OH and Pb-PO4 bonds was absorbed on struvite surface during precipitation. When Pb concentrations were increased to 10-100 mg/L, the precipitation of dominating Pb phase, crystalline Pb10(PO4)6(OH)2, was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Combined with XPS, the amorphous Pb hydroxide/phosphate and Mg phosphate were also detected in struvite solids. Our findings revealed that at low concentrations (0.1-1 mg/L), Pb can affect the mineral surface by surface absorption, whereas Pb precipitated as separated phase(s) (e.g. Pb10(PO4)6(OH)2, Pb hydroxide and/or phosphate) at high Pb concentrations (10-100 mg/L). Thus, the initial Pb2+ concentrations in wastewater will dictate final struvite contents and Pb-bearing phases in recovered solids.

Abstract
Bone defects caused by trauma, tumor resection, congenital malformation and infection are still a major challenge for clinicians. Biomimetic bone materials have attracted more and more attention in science and industry. Insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) have been increasingly recognized as an inducible factor for osteogenesis and angiogenesis. Spatiotemporal release of insulin may serve as the promising strategy. Considering the successful application of nanoparticles in drug loading, various insulin delivery systems have been developed, including (poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid), PLGA), hydroxyapatite (HA), gelatin, chitosan, alginate, and (γ-glutamic acid)/β-tricalcium phosphate, γ-PGA/β-TCP). Here, we have reviewed the progress on nanoparticles carrying insulin/IGF for bone regeneration. In addition, the key regulatory mechanism of insulin in bone regeneration is also summarized. The future application strategies and the challenges in bone regeneration are also discussed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Therapeutic peptides are administered via parenteral route due to poor absorption in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, instability in gastric acid, and GI enzymes. Polymeric drug delivery systems have achieved significant interest in pharmaceutical research due to its feasibility in protecting proteins, tissue targeting, and controlled drug release pattern. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, the size, polydispersity index, and zeta potential of insulin-loaded nanoparticles were characterized by dynamic light scattering and laser Doppler micro-electrophoresis. The main and interaction effects of chitosan concentration and Dz13Scr concentration on the physicochemical properties of the prepared insulin-loaded nanoparticles (size, polydispersity index, and zeta potential) were evaluated statistically using analysis of variance. A robust procedure of reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography was developed to quantify insulin release in simulated GI buffer. Results and discussion: We reported on the effect of two independent parameters, including polymer concentration and oligonucleotide concentration, on the physical characteristics of particles. Chitosan concentration was significant in predicting the size of insulin-loaded CS-Dz13Scr particles. In terms of zeta potential, both chitosan concentration and squared term of chitosan were significant factors that affect the surface charge of particles, which was attributed to the availability of positively-charged amino groups during interaction with negatively-charged Dz13Scr. The excipients used in this study could fabricate nanoparticles with negligible toxicity in GI cells and skeletal muscle cells. The developed formulation could conserve the physicochemical properties after being stored for 1 month at 4 °C. CONCLUSION The obtained results revealed satisfactory results for insulin-loaded CS-Dz13Scr nanoparticles (159.3 nm, pdi 0.331, -1.08 mV). No such similar study has been reported to date to identify the main and interactive significance of the above parameters for the characterization of insulin-loaded polymeric-oligonucleotide nanoparticles. This research is of importance for the understanding and development of protein-loaded nanoparticles for oral delivery.

Abstract
Apatite subspecies depend on their halogen and hydroxyl content; chlorapatite, hydroxylapatite and fluorapatite, with additional substitution of other elements within the lattice such as rare earth elements (REE), sodium, strontium and manganese also possible. Rare earth elements are vital to green and emerging technologies, with demand set to outstrip supply. Apatite provides a possible future source of REE. Processing rare earth deposits is often complex, with surface behaviour having a significant effect on the optimization of a process flow sheet. The effect of enrichment of natural apatite and the doping of synthetic apatite on surface behaviour can be determined by measuring the zeta potential and the isoelectric point of the mineral. In this paper, we review zeta potential studies of natural and synthetic apatite to determine the effect of elemental enrichment on surface behaviour. Fifty three studies of natural apatite and forty four studies of synthetic apatite were reviewed. The isoelectric point of apatite varied from pH 1 to pH 8.7, with studies of apatite specified to be >90% pure reducing the variation to pH 3 to pH 6.5. Of the four studies of rare earth enriched apatite found, three had IEP values between pH 3 and pH 4. A study of synthetic apatite showing enrichment of between 1 and 10% by the REE europium does not affect surface behaviour. However, no studies were found that investigated the effect of common REE processing reagents on REE enriched apatite zeta potentials. Therefore, in addition to comparing previous studies we also therefore present new zeta potential measurements of apatite from a REE enriched deposit under water and common flotation collector conditions. The IEP value of this apatite under water conditions was at pH 3.6, shifting to <3.5 under both hydroxamic acid and betacol conditions. When compared to previous studies, the behaviour of REE enriched apatite under collector conditions is similar to non-REE apatite. This result could be important for future processing of apatite enriched with REE, and therefore global apatite and rare earth supply.

Abstract
Therapeutic proteins are administered subcutaneously because of their instability in the gastrointestinal tract. Current research suggests that polymeric-based nanoparticles, microparticles and liposomes are ideal nanocarriers to encapsulate proteins for disease management. In order to develop a successful drug delivery system, it is crucial to determine drug release profile and stability. However, the non-active excipients in polymeric formulations can influence the quantification of proteins in analytical techniques. This study investigated the effect of nine common polymers on quantification of bovine serum albumin (BSA) using RP-HPLC method. The technique offers advantages such as short analytical time, high accuracy and selectivity. In the meantime, the technique can be employed to separate proteins including BSA, insulin and pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF). Furthermore, the RP-HPLC method was applied to quantify the drug release pattern of a novel BSA-loaded nanoparticulate formulation in simulated gastric and intestinal fluids. The nanoparticles were formulated by natural polymer (chitosan) and oligonucleotide (Dz13Scr) using complex coacervation. The prepared particles were found to have small size (337.87 nm), low polydispersity index (0.338) and be positively charged (10.23 mV). The in vitro drug release patterns were characterised using the validated RP-HPLC method over 12 h. Graphical abstract ᅟ.
