Abstract
The growing interest in superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) as potential theranostic agents is related to their unique properties and the broad range of possibilities for their surface functionalization. However, despite the rapidly expanding list of novel SPIONs with potential biomedical applications, there is still a lack of methodologies that would allow in-depth investigation of the interactions of those nanoparticles with biological compounds in human serum. Herein, we present attempts to employ capillary electrophoresis-inductively coupled plasma tandem mass spectrometry (CE-ICP-MS/MS) for this purpose and various obstacles and limitations noticed during the research. The CE and ICP-MS/MS parameters were optimized, and the developed method was used to study the interactions of two different proteins (albumin and transferrin) with various synthesized SPIONs. While the satisfactory resolution between proteins was obtained and the method was applied to examine individual reagents, it was revealed that the conjugates formed during the incubation of the proteins with SPIONs were not stable under the conditions of electrophoretic separation.

Abstract
Taylor dispersion analysis (TDA) is an interesting tool for nanoparticle (NP) size determination, feasible using simple capillary electrophoresis apparatus. Based upon the radial diffusion of analytes upon a laminar stream, the diffusion coefficient of species is easily estimable. Moreover, TDA is generally more adequate than conventional dynamic light scattering methodologies as it is less dependent on the polydispersity of the sample, leading to accurate measurement and reliable results. This review provides every paper mentioning the use of TDA for metallic-based NPs size determination. Diverse strategies for the detection of metallic NPs (like UV-visible and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry - ICP-MS - for instance) and interpretation of the Taylorgrams are discussed. Based upon the literature, advices on future prospects are also indicated, especially for the comparison of TDA results with other classical techniques.

Abstract
The adsorption of metabolites to the surface of nanomaterials is a growing area of interest in the field of bionanointeractions. Like its more-established protein counterpart, it is thought that the metabolite corona has a key role in the uptake, distribution, and toxicity of nanomaterials in organisms. Previous research has demonstrated that nanomaterials obtain a unique metabolite fingerprint when exposed to biological matrices; however, there have been some concerns raised over the reproducibility of bionanointeraction research due to challenges in dispersion of nanomaterials and their stability. As such, this work investigates a much-overlooked aspect of this field, i.e., sample preparation, which is vital to the accurate, reproducible, and informative analysis of the metabolite corona. The impact of elution buffer pH, volume, and ionic strength on the metabolite corona composition acquired by uncapped and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)-capped TiO2 from mixtures of cationic and anionic metabolites was studied. We demonstrate the temporal evolution of the TiO2 metabolite corona and the recovery of the metabolite corona, which resulted from a complex biological matrix, in this case human plasma. This work also demonstrates that it is vital to optimize sample preparation for each nanomaterial being investigated, as the metabolite recovery from Fe3O4 and Dispex-capped TiO2 nanomaterials is significantly reduced compared to the aforementioned uncapped and PVP-capped TiO2 nanomaterials. These are important findings for future bionanointeraction studies, which is a rapidly emerging area of research in nanoscience.

Electrophoretic Determination of Trimethylamine (TMA) in Biological Samples as a Novel Potential Biomarker of Cardiovascular Diseases Methodological Approach.

Abstract
In competitive athletes, the differential diagnosis between nonpathological changes in cardiac morphology associated with training (commonly referred to as “athlete’s heart”) and certain cardiac diseases with the potential for sudden death is an important and not uncommon clinical problem. The use of noninvasive, fast, and cheap analytical techniques can help in making diagnostic differentiation and planning subsequent clinical strategies. Recent studies have demonstrated the role of gut microbiota and their metabolites in the onset and the development of cardiovascular diseases. Trimethylamine (TMA), a gut bacteria metabolite consisting of carnitine and choline, has recently emerged as a potentially toxic molecule to the circulatory system. The present work aims to develop a simple and cost-effective capillary electrophoresis-based method for the determination of TMA in biological samples. Analytical characteristics of the proposed method were evaluated through the study of its linearity (R2 > 0.9950) and the limit of detection and quantification (LOD = 1.2 µg/mL; LOQ = 3.6 µg/mL). The method shows great potential in high-throughput screening applications for TMA analysis in biological samples as a novel potential biomarker of cardiovascular diseases. The proposed electrophoretic method for the determination of TMA in biological samples from patients with cardiac disease is now in progress.

Abstract
It remains challenging to precisely decipher the structural and functional characteristics of protein coronas. To overcome the drawbacks frequently occurring in the traditional separation methods, an anti-PEG single-chain variable fragment (PEG-scFv) based affinity chromatography (AfC) was developed to achieve precise and efficient separation of protein coronas on PEGylated liposomes (sLip). His-tagged PEG-scFv could readily capture sLip without affecting protein corona compositions, and separate sLip/protein complex from plasma protein aggregates and endogenous vesicles through the Ni-NTA column. AfC demonstrated 43-fold higher protein corona collecting efficiency than centrifugation, which was extremely crucial for separation of in vivo protein coronas due to the limitation of sample size. AfC evaded contamination by endogenous vesicles and protein aggregates occurring in centrifugation, and reserved the loosely bound proteins, providing an unprecedented approach to deeply decipher protein coronas. The scFv-based AfC also paves new avenues for the separation of protein coronas formed on other nanomedicines.

Analysis of selenium nanoparticles in human plasma by capillary electrophoresis hyphenated to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Anal Bioanal Chem 2021; 413:2247-2255.

Abstract
Nanoparticles (NPs) are increasingly applied in research and development of new therapies. Characterization of NP systems most often include size, shape, size distribution, and charge but information on the chemical stability of NPs and investigation of the presence of dissolved species is most often missing in efficacy studies due to lack of appropriate methods. In this study, a method based on capillary electrophoresis coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (CE-ICP-MS) was established for analysis of selenium (Se) NPs and dissolved Se species in aqueous media. Peak area and migration time precisions (RSD) of 1.4-3.0% and 1.0-2.6%, respectively, were obtained. CE-ICP-MS analysis of a commercially available SeNP suspension (Q-SeNP) revealed large amounts of selenite corresponding to 32% of the total Se content in the suspension, indicating considerable NP degradation upon storage. The CE-ICP-MS method was modified using a coated fused silica capillary in order to analyze SeNPs in human plasma. Peak area and migration time precisions (RSD) in the range of 3.3-10.7% and 0.8-2.8%, respectively, were achieved. Degradation of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-coated SeNPs to selenite in human plasma was demonstrated using the modified method. The amounts of SeNP and selenite were estimated based on a correction factor for the ICP-MS signals of PVA-SeNP and dissolved Se. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study of SeNPs by CE-ICP-MS and highlights the potential of CE-ICP-MS for quantitative characterization of the behavior of SeNPs in biological media.

Abstract
The global plastic contamination is one of the major challenges facing mankind as plastic is ubiquitously present in all environmental compartments. In contrast to freshwater and marine environments, plastic contamination of agricultural soils was only recently subject to investigations although it represents a significant amount (14%) of the global plastic pollution. Of concern is the vertical migration of plastic particles in agricultural soils and plastic-induced enhancement of pesticide transport towards underlying groundwater systems. To assess the risk of the large plastic inventory in agricultural soils for groundwater systems and drinking water supplies, this review critically synthesizes the current knowledge of the plastic mobility and plastic-pesticide interactions in agricultural soils, identifies future research directions and evaluates associated analytical challenges. The reviewed studies provide consistent evidence for vertical migration of plastic in agricultural soils towards aquifer systems, especially for sub-micrometer sized plastic particles, analogously to the well-known migration of natural particles in the sub-micrometer range (colloids). The reviewed investigations also showed that plastic changes the sorption behavior of pesticides in agricultural soils and enhances their transport towards underlying groundwater systems. Hence, the deposited plastic in agricultural soils likely poses a major risk for underlying aquifers and drinking water supplies that rely on groundwater resources below farmlands to be contaminated by plastic and pesticides. This demonstrates that improved regulatory measures are necessary regarding the general usage of plastic in the farming process to protect aquifers and drinking water supplies from plastic and pesticide contamination and to avoid a potential human health hazard.

Abstract
Administration of nanomaterials based medicinal and drug carrier systems into systemic circulation brings about interaction of blood components e.g. albumin and globulin proteins with these nanosystems. These blood or serum proteins either get loosely attached over these nanocarriers and form soft protein corona or are tightly adsorbed over nanoparticles and hard protein corona formation occurs. Formation of protein corona has significant implications over a wide array of physicochemical and medicinal attributes. Almost all pharmacological, toxicological and carrier characteristics of nanoparticles get prominently touched by the protein corona formation. It is this interaction of nanoparticle protein corona that decides and influences fate of nanomaterials-based systems. In this article, authors reviewed several diverse aspects of protein corona formation and its implications on various possible outcomes in vivo and in vitro. A brief description regarding formation and types of protein corona has been included along with mechanisms and pharmacokinetic, pharmacological behavior and toxicological profiles of nanoparticles has been described. Finally, significance of protein corona in context of its in vivo and in vitro behavior, involvement of biomolecules at nanoparticle plasma interface and other interfaces and effects of protein corona on biocompatibility characteristics have also been touched upon.

Abstract
Nanomaterials (NMs) are promptly coated with biomolecules in biological systems leading to the formation of the so-called corona. To date, research has predominantly focused on the protein corona and how it affects NM uptake, distribution, and bioactivity by conferring a biological identity to NMs enabling interactions with receptors to mediate cellular responses. Thus, protein corona studies are now integral to nanosafety assessment. However, a larger class of molecules, the metabolites, which are orders of magnitude smaller than proteins (<1000 Da) and regulate metabolic pathways, has been largely overlooked. This hampers the understanding of the bio-nano interface, development of computational predictions of corona formation, and investigations into uptake or toxicity at the cellular level, including identification of molecular initiating events triggering adverse outcome pathways. Here, a capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry based metabolomics approach reveals that pure polar ionogenic metabolite standards differentially adsorb to a range of 6 NMs (SiO2 , 3 TiO2 with different surface chemistries, and naïve and carboxylated polystyrene NMs). The metabolite corona composition is quantitatively compared using protein-free and complete plasma samples, revealing that proteins in samples significantly change the composition of the metabolite corona. This key finding provides the basis to include the metabolite corona in future nanosafety endeavors.

Abstract
In spite of radical advances in nanobiotechnology, the clinical translation of nanoparticle (NP)-based agents is still a major challenge due to various physiological factors that influence their interactions with biological systems. Recent decade witnessed meticulous investigation on protein corona (PC) that is the first surrounds NPs once administered into the body. Formation of PC around NP surface exhibits resilient effects on their circulation, distribution, therapeutic activity, toxicity and other factors. Although enormous literature is available on the role of PC in altering pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of NPs, understanding on its analytical characterization methods still remains shallow. Therefore, the current review summarizes the impact of PC on biological fate of NPs and stressing on analytical methods employed for studying the NP-PC.

Abstract
Electromigration techniques have recently emerged as an alternative analytical tool for nanoparticles characterization. Due to the high throughput capability and separation efficiency their application for detection/quantification of nanomaterials in samples of various origin has attracted much attention. While the electromigration techniques are known to suffer from insufficient detection sensitivity, a number of papers investigating on-line preconcentration of nanoparticles in capillary electrophoresis was addressed to the issue. In this work the available literature on nanoparticles stacking in electrodriven separation techniques was reviewed. The discussion was supported by theoretical background. A special emphasis was put on the stability of nanoparticles dispersion during electrophoretic process. The considerations on future perspectives were included in final remarks.

Corona Isolation Method Matters: Capillary Electrophoresis Mass Spectrometry Based Comparison of Protein Corona Compositions Following On-Particle versus In-Solution or In-Gel Digestion. NANOMATERIALS 2019; 9:nano9060898. [PMID: 31226785 PMCID: PMC6631359 DOI: 10.3390/nano9060898] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2019] [Revised: 06/07/2019] [Accepted: 06/12/2019] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Increased understanding of the role of the nanomaterial protein corona in driving nanomaterial uptake into, and impacts on, cells and organisms, and the consequent need for characterization of the corona, has led to a flourishing of methods for isolation and analysis of the constituent proteins over the past decade. However, despite over 700 corona studies to date, very little is understood in terms of which methods provide the most precise and comprehensive characterization of the corona. With the increasing importance of the modeling of corona formation and its correlation with biological impacts, it is timely to properly characterize and validate the isolation approaches used to determine the protein corona. The current work introduces Capillary Electrophoresis with Electro Spray Ionization Mass Spectrometry (CESI-MS) as a novel method for protein corona characterizations and develops an on-particle tryptic digestion method, comparing peptide solubilization solutions and characterizing the recovery of proteins from the nanomaterial surface. The CESI-MS was compared to the gold standard nano-LC-MS for corona analysis and maintained a high degree of reproducibility, while increasing throughput by >3-fold. The on-particle digestion is compared to an in-solution digestion and an in-gel digestion of the protein corona. Interestingly, a range of different protein classes were found to be recovered to greater or lesser extents among the different methods. Apolipoproteins were detected at lower concentrations when a surfactant was used to solubilize peptides, whereas immunoglobulins in general have a high affinity for nanomaterials, and thus show lower recovery using on-particle digestion. The optimized on-particle digestion was validated using 6 nanomaterials and proved capable of recovering in excess of 97% of the protein corona. These are important factors to consider when designing corona studies and modeling corona formation and impacts, highlighting the significance of a comprehensive validation of nanomaterial corona analysis methods.

Abstract
Over the past two decades, the unique properties of engineered nanoparticles (NPs) have placed them at the centre of revolutionary advancements in many sectors of science, technology and commerce. Multi-technique and multi-disciplinary analytical approaches are required to identify, quantify, and characterize the chemical composition, size and size distribution, surface properties and the number and concentration of NPs. In this chapter, an overview of the recent advances in the characterization of NPs will be presented.

Abstract
Bio-nano interface investigation models are mainly based on the type of proteins present on corona, bio-nano interaction responses and the evaluation of final outcomes. Due to the extensive diversity in correlative models for investigation of nanoparticles biological responses, a comprehensive model considering different aspects of bio-nano interface from nanoparticles properties to protein corona fingerprints appeared to be essential and cannot be ignored. In order to minimize divergence in studies in the era of bio-nano interface and protein corona with following therapeutic implications, a useful investigation model on the basis of RADAR concept is suggested. The contents of RADAR concept consist of five modules: 1- Reshape of our strategy for synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs), 2- Application of NPs selected based on human fluid, 3- Delivery strategy of NPs selected based on target tissue, 4- Analysis of proteins present on corona using correct procedures and 5- Risk assessment and risk reduction upon the collection and analysis of results to increase drug delivery efficiency and drug efficacy. RADAR grouping strategy for revisiting protein corona phenomenon as a key of success will be discussed with respect to the current state of knowledge.
