Abstract
Due to their biocompatibility and biodegradability and their unique structural and physicochemical properties, laser-synthesized silicon nanoparticles (Si-NPs) are one of the nanomaterials which have been most studied as potential theragnostic tools for non-invasive therapeutic modalities. However, their ability to modulate cell behavior and to promote proliferation and differentiation is still very little investigated or unknown. In this work, ultrapure ligand free Si-NPs of 50 ± 11.5 nm were prepared by femtosecond (fs) laser ablation in liquid. After showing the ability of Si-NPs to be internalized by murine C2C12 myoblasts, the cytotoxicity of the Si-NPs on these cells was evaluated at concentrations ranging from 14 to 224 μg mL-1. Based on these findings, three concentrations of 14, 28 and 56 μg mL-1 were thus considered to study the effect on myoblast differentiation, proliferation and motility at the molecular and phenotypical levels. It was demonstrated that up to 28 μg mL-1, the Si-NPs are able to promote the proliferation of myoblasts and their subsequent differentiation. Scratch tests were also performed revealing the positive Si-NP effect on cellular motility at 14 and 28 μg mL-1. Finally, gene expression analysis confirmed the ability of Si-NPs to promote proliferation, differentiation and motility of myoblasts even at very low concentration. This work opens up novel exciting prospects for Si-NPs made by the laser process as innovative tools for skeletal muscle tissue engineering in view of developing novel therapeutic protocols for regenerative medicine.

The Development of New Nanocomposite Polytetrafluoroethylene/Fe 2O 3 NPs to Prevent Bacterial Contamination in Meat Industry. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14224880. [PMID: 36433009 PMCID: PMC9695638 DOI: 10.3390/polym14224880] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2022] [Revised: 11/08/2022] [Accepted: 11/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/15/2022] Open
Abstract
The bacterial contamination of cutting boards and other equipment in the meat processing industry is one of the key reasons for reducing the shelf life and consumer properties of products. There are two ways to solve this problem. The first option is to create coatings with increased strength in order to prevent the formation of micro damages that are favorable for bacterial growth. The second possibility is to create materials with antimicrobial properties. The use of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) coatings with the addition of metal oxide nanoparticles will allow to the achieving of both strength and bacteriostatic effects at the same time. In the present study, a new coating based on PTFE and Fe2O3 nanoparticles was developed. Fe2O3 nanoparticles were synthesized by laser ablation in water and transferred into acetone using the developed procedures. An acetone-based colloidal solution was mixed with a PTFE-based varnish. Composites with concentrations of Fe2O3 nanoparticles from 0.001-0.1% were synthesized. We studied the effect of the obtained material on the generation of ROS (hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radicals), 8-oxoguanine, and long-lived active forms of proteins. It was found that PTFE did not affect the generation of all the studied compounds, and the addition of Fe2O3 nanoparticles increased the generation of H2O2 and hydroxyl radicals by up to 6 and 7 times, respectively. The generation of 8-oxoguanine and long-lived reactive protein species in the presence of PTFE/Fe2O3 NPs at 0.1% increased by 2 and 3 times, respectively. The bacteriostatic and cytotoxic effects of the developed material were studied. PTFE with the addition of Fe2O3 nanoparticles, at a concentration of 0.001% or more, inhibited the growth of E. coli by 2-5 times compared to the control or PTFE without NPs. At the same time, PTFE, even with the addition of 0.1% Fe2O3 nanoparticles, did not significantly impact the survival of eukaryotic cells. It was assumed that the resulting composite material could be used to cover cutting boards and other polymeric surfaces in the meat processing industry.

Optical Study of Lysozyme Molecules in Aqueous Solutions after Exposure to Laser-Induced Breakdown. Biomolecules 2022; 12:biom12111613.

Abstract
The properties of a lysozyme solution under laser-induced breakdown were studied. An optical breakdown under laser action in protein solutions proceeds with high efficiency: the formation of plasma and acoustic oscillations is observed. The concentration of protein molecules has very little effect on the physicochemical characteristics of optical breakdown. After exposure to optical breakdown, changes were observed in the enzymatic activity of lysozyme, absorption and fluorescence spectra, viscosity, and the sizes of molecules and aggregates of lysozyme measured by dynamic light scattering. However, the refractive index of the solution and the Raman spectrum did not change. The appearance of a new fluorescence peak was observed upon excitation at 350 nm and emission at 434 nm at exposure for 30 min. Previously, a peak in this range was associated with the fluorescence of amyloid fibrils. However, neither the ThT assay nor the circular dichroism dispersion confirmed the formation of amyloid fibrils. Probably, under the influence of optical breakdown, a small part of the protein degraded, and a part changed its native state and aggregated, forming functional dimers or “native aggregates”.

Abstract
The influence of the number of oxidized terbium nanoparticles on the intensity of physicochemical processes occurring during optical breakdown in aqueous colloidal solutions of nanoparticles has been studied. It is shown that the effect of the number of oxidized terbium nanoparticles on the physicochemical processes occurring during optical breakdown depends significantly on the fluence of laser radiation. At a fluence of less than 100-110 J/cm2, plasma formation processes occur more intensively on less-oxidized (metal) nanoparticles. At a fluence of more than 100-110 J/cm2, the processes of plasma formation during optical breakdown occur much more intensively on more-oxidized nanoparticles. It has been established that the dependence of the rate of laser-induced decomposition of water on the concentration of nanoparticles is two-phase. The rate of generation of water decomposition products increases with an increase in the concentration of nanoparticles up to 109 NP/mL. With a further increase in the concentration of nanoparticles, the rate of generation of water decomposition products decreases. In this case, more than 99% of the decomposition products of water are formed due to the action of plasma, and the share of ultraviolet and ultrasound formed during optical breakdown is approximately 0.5% on each.

Influence of Laser Process Parameters, Liquid Medium, and External Field on the Synthesis of Colloidal Metal Nanoparticles Using Pulsed Laser Ablation in Liquid: A Review.

Abstract
Pulsed laser ablation in liquid, used for nanoparticle synthesis from solid bulk metal targets (a top-down approach), has been a hot topic of research in the past few decades. It is a highly efficient and ‘green’ fabrication method for producing pure, stable, non-toxic (ligand-free), colloidal nanoparticles, which is often challenging using traditional chemical methods. Due to the short time scale interaction between the laser pulses and the target, it is difficult to achieve complete control on the physical characteristics of metallic nanoparticles. Laser process parameters, liquid environment, and external fields vastly effect the shape and structure of nanoparticles for targeted applications. Past reviews on pulsed laser ablation have focused extensively on synthesising different materials using this technique but little attention has been given to explaining the dependency aspect of the process parameters in fine-tuning the nanoparticle characteristics. In this study, we reviewed the state of the art literature available on this technique, which can help the scientific community develop a comprehensive understanding with special insights into the laser ablation mechanism. We further examined the importance of these process parameters in improving the ablation rate and productivity and analysed the morphology, size distribution, and structure of the obtained nanoparticles. Finally, the challenges faced in nanoparticle research and prospects are presented.

Coatings Functionalization via Laser versus Other Deposition Techniques for Medical Applications: A Comparative Review. COATINGS 2022.

Abstract
The development of new biological devices in response to market demands requires continuous efforts for the improvement of products’ functionalization based upon expansion of the materials used and their fabrication techniques. One viable solution consists of a functionalization substrate covered by layers via an appropriate deposition technique. Laser techniques ensure an enhanced coating’s adherence to the substrate and improved biological characteristics, not compromising the mechanical properties of the functionalized medical device. This is a review of the main laser techniques involved. We mainly refer to pulse laser deposition, matrix-assisted, and laser simple and double writing versus some other well-known deposition methods as magnetron sputtering, 3D bioprinting, inkjet printing, extrusion, solenoid, fuse-deposition modeling, plasma spray (PS), and dip coating. All these techniques can be extended to functionalize surface fabrication to change local morphology, chemistry, and crystal structure, which affect the biomaterial behavior following the chosen application. Surface functionalization laser techniques are strictly controlled within a confined area to deliver a large amount of energy concisely. The laser deposit performances are presented compared to reported data obtained by other techniques.

Abstract
A method for obtaining a stable colloidal solution of silver oxide nanoparticles has been developed using laser ablation. The method allows one to obtain nanoparticles with a monomodal size distribution and a concentration of more than 108 nanoparticles per mL. On the basis of the obtained nanoparticles and the PLGA polymer, a nanocomposite material was manufactured. The manufacturing technology allows one to obtain a nanocomposite material without significant defects. Nanoparticles are not evenly distributed in the material and form domains in the composite. Reactive oxygen species (hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radical) are intensively generated on the surfaces of the nanocomposite. Additionally, on the surface of the composite material, an intensive formation of protein long-lived active forms is observed. The ELISA method was used to demonstrate the generation of 8-oxoguanine in DNA on the developed nanocomposite material. It was found that the multiplication of microorganisms on the developed nanocomposite material is significantly decreased. At the same time, the nanocomposite does not inhibit proliferation of mammalian cells. The developed nanocomposite material can be used as an affordable and non-toxic nanomaterial to create bacteriostatic coatings that are safe for humans.

Abstract
One of the significant limitations of the pulsed laser deposition method in the mass-production-technologies of micro- and nanoelectronic and molecular device electronic fabrication is the issue of ensuring deposition of films with uniform thickness on substrates with large diameter (more than 100 mm) since the area of the laser spot (1–5 mm2) on the surface of the ablated target is incommensurably smaller than the substrate area. This paper reports the methodology that allows to calculate the distribution profile of the film thickness over the surface substrate with a large diameter, taking into account the construction and technological parameters of the pulsed laser deposition equipment. Experimental verification of the proposed methodology showed that the discrepancy with the experiment does not exceed 8%. The modeling of various technological parameters influence on the thickness uniformity has been carried out. Based on the modeling results, recommendations and parameters are proposed for manufacturing uniform thickness films. The results allow for increasing the film thickness uniformity with the thickness distribution < 5% accounts for ~ 31% of 300 mm diameter substrate.
