ACS APPLIED BIO MATERIALS 2024; 7:5651-5661. [PMID: 39077871 PMCID: PMC11337164 DOI: 10.1021/acsabm.4c00749] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2024] [Revised: 07/18/2024] [Accepted: 07/21/2024] [Indexed: 07/31/2024]
Abstract
Microbial electrochemical systems (MESs) rely on the microbes' ability to transfer charges from their anaerobic respiratory processes to electrodes through extracellular electron transfer (EET). To increase the generally low output signal in devices, advanced bioelectrical interfaces tend to augment this problem by attaching conducting nanoparticles, such as positively charged multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs), to the base carbon electrode to electrostatically attract the negatively charged bacterial cell membrane. On the other hand, some reports point to the importance of the magnitude of the surface charge of functionalized single-walled CNTs (SWCNTs) as well as the size of functional groups for interaction with the cell membrane, rather than their polarity. To shed light on these phenomena, in this study, we prepared and characterized well-solubilized aqueous dispersions of SWCNTs functionalized by either positively or negatively charged cellulose-derivative polymers, as well as with positively charged or neutral small molecular surfactants, and tested the electrochemical performance of Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 in MESs in the presence of these functionalized SWCNTs. By simple injection into the MESs, the positively charged polymeric SWCNTs attached to the base carbon felt (CF) electrode, and as fluorescence microscopy revealed, allowed bacteria to attach to these structures. As a result, EET currents continuously increased over several days of monitoring, without bacterial growth in the electrolyte. Negatively charged polymeric SWCNTs also resulted in continuously increasing EET currents and a large number of bacteria on CF, although SWCNTs did not attach to CF. In contrast, SWCNTs functionalized by small-sized surfactants led to a decrease in both currents and the amount of bacteria in the solution, presumably due to the detachment of surfactants from SWCNTs and their detrimental interaction with cells. We expect our results will help researchers in designing materials for smart bioelectrical interfaces for low-scale microbial energy harvesting, sensing, and energy conversion applications.

[PMID: 38874589 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.b.35434] [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: 09/11/2023] [Revised: 03/26/2024] [Accepted: 05/18/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024]
Abstract
Bioactive degradable scaffolds that facilitate bone healing while fighting off initial bacterial infection have the potential to change established strategies of dealing with traumatic bone injuries. To achieve this a composite material made from calcium phosphate graphene (CaPG), and MXene was synthesized. CaPG was created by functionalizing graphene oxide with phosphate groups in the presence of CaBr with a Lewis acid catalyst. Through this transformation, Ca2+ and PO4 3- inducerons are released as the material degrades thereby aiding in the process of osteogenesis. The 2D MXene sheets, which have shown to have antibacterial properties, were made by etching the Al from a layered Ti3AlC2 (MAX phase) using HF. The hot-pressed scaffolds made of these materials were designed to combat the possibility of infection during initial surgery and failure of osteogenesis to occur. These two failure modes account for a large percentage of issues that can arise during the treatment of traumatic bone injuries. These scaffolds were able to retain induceron-eluting properties in various weight percentages and bring about osteogenesis with CaPG alone and 2 wt% MXene scaffolds demonstrating increased osteogenic activity as compared to no treatment. Additionally, added MXene provided antibacterial properties that could be seen at as little as 2 wt%. This CaPG and MXene composite provides a possible avenue for developing osteogenic, antibacterial materials for treating bone injuries.

Abstract
Graphenic materials have excited the scientific community due to their exciting mechanical, thermal, and optoelectronic properties for a potential range of applications. Graphene and graphene derivatives have demonstrated application in areas stretching from composites to medicine; however, the environmental and health impacts of these materials have not been sufficiently characterized. Graphene oxide (GO) is one of the most widely used graphenic derivatives due to a relatively easy and scalable synthesis, and the ability to tailor the oxygen containing functional groups through further chemical modification. In this paper, ecological and health impacts of fresh and ultrasonically altered functional graphenic materials (FGMs) were investigated. Model organisms, specifically Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, and Caenorhabditis elegans, were used to assess the consequences of environmental exposure to fresh and ultrasonically altered FGMs. FGMs were selected to evaluate the environmental effects of aggregation state, degree of oxidation, charge, and ultrasonication. The major findings indicate that bacterial cell viability, nematode fertility, and nematode movement were largely unaffected, suggesting that a wide variety of FGMs may not pose significant health and environmental risks.

Abstract
Bacteria have the extraordinary ability to adhere to biomaterial surfaces and form multicellular structures known as biofilms, which have a detrimental impact on the performance of medical devices. Herein, an investigation highlighted the effective inhibition of bacteria adhesion and overgrowth on silicone rubber surface by grafting polysaccharide, agarose (AG), to construct hydrophilic and negatively charged surfaces. Because of the strong hydration capacity of agarose, the water contact angle of the modified silicone rubber surfaces was significantly reduced from 107.6 ± 2.7° to 19.3 ± 2.6°, which successfully limited bacterial adherence. Most importantly, the durability and stability of coating were observed after 10 days of simulated dynamic microenvironment in vivo, exhibiting a long service life. This modification method did not compromise biocompatibility of silicone rubber, opening a door to new applications for silicone rubber in the field of biomedical materials.

Abstract
Biofilms are known to be a great challenge for their anti-bacterial activity as they obstruct drug action for deeper and more thorough bacteria-killing effects. Therefore, developing highly effective antibacterial agents to destroy biofilms and eradicate bacteria is of great significance. Herein, a new type of nanocomposites (denoted as poly(4-cyanostyrene)@silver@polylysine) is proposed, in which polylysine (PLL) could rapidly capture the biofilms and exhibit excellent antibacterial efficacy together with decorated silver (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) through the charge effect and Ag+ release. Notably, nearly 100% antibacterial rates against Gram-positive bacterium (Staphylococcus aureus, S. aureus) and Gram-negative bacterium (Escherichia coli, E. coli) were achieved. More importantly, poly(4-cyanostyrene) with biological silent Raman imaging capacity is able to illustrate the relationship between antibacterial efficiency and biofilm breakage. In short, such novel nanocomposites can improve the bioavailability of each component and display tremendous potential in antibacterial applications.

Such a medical application of piezocatalysis is termed as piezocatalytic medicine (PCM) herein. To pioneer novel medical technologies, especially therapeutic modalities, this review provides an overview of the state-of-the-art research progress in piezocatalytic medicine. First, the principle of piezocatalysis and the preparation methodologies of piezoelectric materials are introduced. Then, a comprehensive summary of the medical applications of piezocatalytic materials in tumor treatment, antisepsis, organic degradation, tissue repair and regeneration, and biosensing is provided. Finally, the main challenges and future perspectives in piezocatalytic medicine are discussed and proposed, expecting to fuel the development of this emerging scientific discipline.

Abstract
Graphene-based nanomaterials (GBNs) have been the subject of research focus in the scientific community because of their excellent physical, chemical, electrical, mechanical, thermal, and optical properties. Several studies have been conducted on GBNs, and they have provided a detailed review and summary of various applications. However, comprehensive comments on biomedical applications and potential risks and strategies to reduce toxicity are limited. In this review, we systematically summarized the following aspects of GBNs in order to fill the gaps: (1) the history, synthesis methods, structural characteristics, and surface modification; (2) the latest advances in biomedical applications (including drug/gene delivery, biosensors, bioimaging, tissue engineering, phototherapy, and antibacterial activity); and (3) biocompatibility, potential risks (toxicity in vivo/vitro and effects on human health and the environment), and strategies to reduce toxicity. Moreover, we have analyzed the challenges to be overcome in order to enhance application of GBNs in the biomedical field.
