Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Colloidal cubic silica shells, prepared from cuprous oxide cubes, with a typical size of 100 nm are promising model particles for scattering studies on dilute, as well as concentrated fluids, of non-spherical colloids. EXPERIMENTS Small angle X-ray scattering, and static light scattering are employed to determine form factors of cubic silica shells and silica covered cuprous oxide cubes. Contrast variation experiments are performed to assess the refractive index and optical homogeneity of the cubic silica shells, which is important for the extension of the scattering study to concentrated dispersions of cubic shells in Part II (Dekker, submitted for publication). RESULTS The experimental form factors, which compare well to theoretical form factors, manifest cubic silica shells that are dispersed as single stable colloids with a shape intermediate between a sphere and a perfect cube. Contrast variation demonstrates that the silica shells are optically homogeneous, with a refractive index that is independent of the shell thickness. The results presented here open up the possibility to extract structure factors from light scattering measurements on concentrated cube dispersions in Part II.

Abstract
Nano/microsized MIL-101Cr was synthesized by microwave heating of emulsions for the use as a composite with Matrimid mixed-matrix membranes (MMM) to enhance the performance of a mixed-gas-separation. As an example, we chose CO2/CH4 separation. Although the incorporation of MIL-101Cr in MMMs is well-known, the impact of nanosized MIL-101Cr in MMMs is new and shows an improvement compared to microsized MIL-101Cr under the same conditions and mixed-gas permeation. In order to reproducibly obtain nanoMIL-101Cr microwave heating was supplemented by carrying out the reaction of chromium nitrate and 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid in heptane-in-water emulsions with the anionic surfactant sodium oleate as emulsifier. The use of this emulsion with the phase inversion temperature (PIT) method offered controlled nucleation and growth of nanoMIL-101 particles to an average size of <100 nm within 70 min offering high apparent BET surface areas (2,900 m2 g-1) and yields of 45%. Concerning the CO2/CH4 separation, the best result was obtained with 24 wt.% of nanoMIL-101Cr@Matrimid, leading to 32 Barrer in CO2 permeability compared to six Barrer for the neat Matrimid polymer membrane and 21 Barrer for the maximum possible 20 wt.% of microMIL-101Cr@Matrimid. The nanosized filler allowed reaching a higher loading where the permeability significantly increased above the predictions from Maxwell and free-fractional-volume modeling. These improvements for MMMs based on nanosized MIL-101Cr are promising for other gas separations.

Abstract
Biofilms and the rapid evolution of multidrug resistance complicate the treatment of bacterial infections. Antibiofilm agents such as metallic-inorganic nanoparticles or peptides act by exerting antibacterial effects and, hence, do not combat biofilms of antibiotics-resistant strains. In this Letter, we show that the block copolymer DA95B5, dextran- block-poly((3-acrylamidopropyl) trimethylammonium chloride (AMPTMA)- co-butyl methacrylate (BMA)), effectively removes preformed biofilms of various clinically relevant multidrug-resistant Gram-positive bacteria including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), vancomycin-resistant Enterococci (VRE V583), and Enteroccocus faecalis (OG1RF). DA95B5 self-assembles into core-shell nanoparticles with a nonfouling dextran shell and a cationic core. These nanoparticles diffuse into biofilms and attach to bacteria but do not kill them; instead, they promote the gradual dispersal of biofilm bacteria, probably because the solubility of the bacteria-nanoparticle complex is enhanced by the nanoparticle dextran shell. DA95B5, when applied as a solution to a hydrogel pad dressing, shows excellent in vivo MRSA biofilm removal efficacy of 3.6 log reduction in a murine excisional wound model, which is significantly superior to that for vancomycin. Furthermore, DA95B5 has very low in vitro hemolysis and negligible in vivo acute toxicity. This new strategy for biofilm removal (nanoscale bacterial debridement) is orthogonal to conventional rapidly developing resistance traits in bacteria so that it is as effective toward resistant strains as it is toward sensitive strains and may have widespread applications.

Abstract
Cationic antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and polymers are active against many multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria, but only a limited number of these compounds are in clinical use due to their unselective toxicity. The typical strategy for achieving selective antibacterial efficacy with low mammalian cell toxicity is through balancing the ratio of cationicity to hydrophobicity. Herein, we report a cationic nanoparticle self-assembled from chitosan-graft-oligolysine (CSM5-K5) chains with ultralow molecular weight (1450 Da) that selectively kills bacteria. Further, hydrogen bonding rather than the typical hydrophobic interaction causes the polymer chains to be aggregated together in water into small nanoparticles (with about 37 nm hydrodynamic radius) to concentrate the cationic charge of the lysine. When complexed with bacterial membrane, these cationic nanoparticles synergistically cluster anionic membrane lipids and produce a greater membrane perturbation and antibacterial effect than would be achievable by the same quantity of charge if dispersed in individual copolymer molecules in solution. The small zeta potential (+15 mV) and lack of hydrophobicity of the nanoparticles impedes the insertion of the copolymer into the cell bilayer to improve biocompatibility. In vivo study (using a murine excisional wound model) shows that CSM5-K5 suppresses the growth of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria by 4.0 orders of magnitude, an efficacy comparable to that of the last resort MRSA antibiotic vancomycin; it is also noninflammatory with little/no activation of neutrophils (CD11b and Ly6G immune cells). This study demonstrates a promising new class of cationic polymers-short cationic peptidopolysaccharides-that effectively attack MDR bacteria due to the synergistic clustering of, rather than insertion into, bacterial anionic lipids by the concentrated polymers in the resulting hydrogen-bonding-stabilized cationic nanoparticles.

Abstract
Quality control analysis of nanomaterials has been identified as a major issue to pursue their development in different industrial fields including nanomedicine. One difficulty is the lack of standardized and validated protocols suitable to achieve their characterization. In a previous work, we have developed standardized protocols for the evaluation of the size and zeta potential of nanomaterials based on methods described in the ISO standard and have performed validation of each one. The present work was aimed to transfer these protocols in three independent receiving laboratories. No official guideline was described in the literature to achieve such a transfer. A comparative study for receiving laboratories equipped with the same instrument as the sending laboratory was designed based on the Code of Federal Regulation edited by the Food and Drug Administration. For the receiving laboratory equipped with an instrument working at a different wavelength, a new validation was designed and applied. Corresponding statistical methods were used for the analysis of the results. A successful transfer of the protocols in all receiving laboratories was achieved. All laboratories recorded consistent results applying in blind the protocol of size measurements on two samples of nanomaterials from which included one reference.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A promising way in diagnostic and therapeutic applications is the development of peptide amphiphiles (PAs). Peptides with a palmitic acid alkylchain were designed and characterized to study the effect of the structure modifications on self-assembling capabilities and the multiple binding capacity to hemagglutinin (HA), the surface protein of influenza virus type A. The peptide amphiphiles consists of a hydrophilic headgroup with a biological functionality of the peptide sequence and a chemically conjugated hydrophobic tail. In solution they self-assemble easily to micelles with a hydrophobic core surrounded by a closely packed peptide-shell. RESULTS In this study the effect of a multiple peptide binding partner to the receptor binding site of HA could be determined with surface plasmon resonance measurements. The applied modification of the peptides causes signal amplification in relationship to the unmodified peptide wherein the high constant specificity persists. The molecular assembly of the peptides was characterized by the determination of critical micelle concentration (CMC) with concentration of 10⁻⁵ M and the colloidal size distribution. CONCLUSION The modification of the physico-chemical parameters by producing peptide amphiphiles form monomeric structures which enhances the binding affinity and allows a better examination of the interaction with the virus surface protein hemagglutinin.

Abstract
Latex films have a tendency to "blush" when exposed to water. The swelling of trapped hydrophilic material, which results in pockets with different refractive indices, is proposed as a possible model for blushing. A pressure-sensitive latex was developed on the basis of this model. The blush was improved by the choice of the surfactant and control of the particle diameter. The resulting latex has an unusual particle growth behavior during polymerization. The particle size distribution (PSD) was characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS), electron microscopy (SEM/TEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The data are in a good agreement with our proposed growth model.

Abstract
Recent developments in the application of Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and other biophysical techniques for the study of bacterial interactions and adhesion are discussed in the light of established biological and microscopic approaches. Whereas molecular-biological techniques combined with electron microscopy allow the identification and localization of surface constituents mediating bacterial interactions, with AFM it has become possible to actually measure the forces involved in bacterial interactions. Combined with the flexibility of AFM in probing various types of physical interactions, such as electrostatic interactions, specific ligand-receptor interactions and the elastic forces of deformation and extension of bacterial surface polymers and cell wall, this provides prospects for the elucidation of the biophysical mechanism of bacterial interaction. However, because of the biochemical and a biophysical complexity of the bacterial cell wall, integrated approaches combining AFM with electron microscopy and biophysical techniques are needed to elucidate the mechanism by which a bacterium interacts with a host or material surface. The literature on electron microscopy of the bacterial cell wall is reviewed, with particular emphasis on the staining of specific classes of cell-wall constituents. The application of AFM in the analysis of bacterial surfaces is discussed, including AFM operating modes, sample preparation methods and results obtained on various strains. For various bacterial strains, the integration of EM and AFM data is discussed. Various biophysical aspects of the analysis of bacterial surface structure and interactions are discussed, including the theory of colloidal interactions and Bell's theory of cell-to-cell adhesion. An overview is given of biophysical techniques used in the analysis of the properties of bacterial surfaces and bacterial surface constituents and their integration with AFM. Finally, we discuss recent progress in the understanding of the role of bacterial interactions in medicine within the framework of the techniques and concepts discussed in the paper.
