Abstract An efficient and simple way to generate “clickable” cellulose modules called alkyne-functionalized cellulose fibers (ACFs) for click reaction was presented. This method is only based on one step reaction: propargyl methacrylate (PMA) with pendant alkynyl groups was grafted onto the surface of cellulose fibers (CFs) using ceric ammonium nitrate as the initiator in aqueous medium. This has been providing a new and versatile platform for the wide utilization of cellulose resources and creation of novel functional materials. The effect of process variables on grafting copolymerization of PMA was investigated and suitable preparation conditions were identified. The clickability of ACFs was evaluated by reacting with two azides. The antibacterial cellulose functional material was achieved through incorporation of a “clickable” handle (alkynyl groups) to cellulose fibers followed by rapid attachment of β-cyclodextrin with an azide tag using copper-catalyzed click reaction and loading with ciprofloxacin hydrochloride (CipHCl). Pure CFs and ACFs showed a little affinity to CipHCl, whereas click products (ACFs@Azide-β-CD) increased the loading amount dramatically because the equilibrium amount was higher than pure CFs and ACFs. Meanwhile, the release process of CipHCl from ACFs@Azide-β-CD was prolonged to reaches the equilibrium. The ACFs@Azide-β-CD loaded with CipHCl showed excellent antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli . The ACFs@Azide-β-CD loading CipHCl have considerably longer bacterial activity against E. coli compared to CFs and ACFs. Graphical abstract

Micelle-to-vesicle aggregate transition is investigated in this work through the addition of β-cyclodextrin 1 (β-CD) in mixed catanionic surfactant aqueous solutions. The catanionic system is composed of 1-hexadecyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (C 16 mimCl) and sodium oleate (NaOle) which are cationic surfactant and anionic surfactant, respectively. The mixed surfactant solutions can self −assemble into micelles, which are studied by dynamic light scattering measurements and the calculation of molecular interaction parameter. The inclusion complexation of β-CD to C 16 mimCl-NaOle surfactants is studied by surface tension measurements and the calculation of association constants. The dynamic light scattering (DLS), rheological measurements, freeze-fracture transmission electron microscopy(FF-TEM)were conducted to indicate that micelles can transform into vesicles with the addition of β-CD. Finally, the transformation mechanism is proposed. The main reason for micelle-to-vesicle aggregate transition is the inclusion complexation of β-CD to surfactants and it will alter the composition of mixed C 16 mimCl-NaOle surfactant systems which should be responsible for the phase behavior.

The reason for low encapsulation efficiency of vanillin compared to p -hydroxybenzaldehyde within β -cyclodextrin was investigated. Fourier transform infrared spectra proved intermolecular interaction between guest and β -cyclodextrin. UV–visible studies indicated that vanillin and p -hydroxybenzaldehyde form 1:1 inclusion complexes with β -cyclodextrin. Nuclear magnetic resonance and quantum computational methods gave the most favourable orientation in which the guest molecule (vanillin or p -hydroxybenzaldehyde) is totally sequestered in the hydrophobic cavity of the cyclodextrin with the phenolic end located near the primary hydroxyls of the β -cyclodextrin and the aldehyde group near the secondary hydroxyls with hydrogen bonding formation. Encapsulation efficiency of the β -cyclodextrin inclusion with vanillin is about 29% lower than that with p -hydroxybenzaldehyde. This result could be attributable to the effect that the side chain methoxy group weakened the guest/host non-covalent intermolecular interaction, specifically, hydrogen bond interaction.

Photo-induced metal free ATRP method was employed for the synthesis of star-shaped polymers. By using 21-Br-β-CD as the macroinitiator, 10-phenylphenothiazine as the photoredox catalyst, star-shaped PtBA homopolymers were synthesized. The photo-induced ATRP displayed all the characteristics of controlled/living polymerization systems and the good light control over the polymerization process. The successful chain extension with MMA demonstrated the high livingness of PtBA “arms” and good controllability of the Photo-induced metal free ATRP. Finally, the achieved PtBA-b-PMMA star-shaped copolymers were used as templates for the preparation of precisely size-tunable CdSe quantum dots after a simple hydrolyzing process.

A series of pH-temperature dual stimuli-responsive random copolymers poly[ N,N -dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate- co -poly(poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate][poly(DMAEMA- co -MPEGMA)] were synthesized by free radical polymerization. The supramolecular hydrogel was formed by pseudopolyrotaxane, which was prepared with the host-guest interactions between α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) side chains. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), nuclear magnetic resonance ( 1 H NMR), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the structures of the hydrogels. The pH-temperature dual stimuli responsive properties of the hydrogels were characterized by rheometer. Finally, the controllable drug release behavior of the hydrogel, which was used 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu) as the model drug, was investigated at different temperatures and different pH values. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Herein, we report a novel responsive assembly system consisting of an amphiphilic drug fenspiride and β-cyclodextrin in host–guest approach. Fenspiride molecules can self-assembled into vesicles in aqueous solution. The obtained vesicles were characterized in detail by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Furthermore, such a vesicular structure will be destroyed upon the addition of β-cyclodextrin due to the formation of inclusion complexes by host–guest interactions. In addition, amylase is a digestive enzyme which can catalyze the breakdown of starch into sugars. Adding α-amylase into the system could release fenspiride molecules, and trigger the self-assembly of fenspiride molecules again. It is anticipated that this research will provide widespread applications in the fields of responsive materials and biochemistry related to enzyme-responsive model system and host–guest chemistry.

In this work, a simple and highly sensitive electrochemical method was developed to detect luteolin based on thio-β-cyclodextrin functionalized graphene/gold nanoparticles modified glassy carbon electrode (SH-β-CD-GNs/AuNPs/GCE). The peak currents of luteolin on the SH-β-CD-GNs/AuNPs/GCE can be greatly enhanced compared to the SH-β-CD-GNs/GCE and the bare GCE. It suggests that the nanocomposite not only shows the excellent electrical properties of GNs and AuNPs but also exhibits higher enrichment ability of cyclodextrins via the host-guest interaction between cyclodextrin and luteolin . At the SH-β-CD-GNs/AuNPs/GCE, the peak currents increased linearly with the concentration of luteolin in the range of 10.0 pM to 10.0 μM. The detection limit was estimated to be 3.3 pM (S/N = 3), which was more sensitive or comparable with the previous electrochemical sensors for luteolin detection. The analytical performance of this sensor has been evaluated for the detection of luteolin in human serum with satisfactory results. Furthermore, the method might open up a new possibility by using the nanohybrids to monitor other flavonoids which can form host–guest complexes with cyclodextrins.

Organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN) membrane is an embryonic technology in chemical engineering for simultaneously purifying organic solvents and recycling nano-scale molecules. Although the inherent nano-cavity cyclodextrins (CDs) as powerful molecular hosts in supramolecular science ensure promise for separation technology, the limited synthesis toolbox and material choice impede the CDs deployment in membrane separations, especially for OSN applications. Herein, biocompatible β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and mussel-inspired polydopamine (pDA) were discovered as the building blocks to simultaneously construct OSN membranes assisted by the host-guest interactions of supramolecular chemistry and hydrogen-bonds via one-step “green” process. Honeycomb microstructures were formed in this process, which adds the molecular transportation pathways. Such biopolymer membranes can remain extraordinarily stable in organic solvent environments, whilst achieving high rejection against angstrom-sized molecule with different charges toward environmental and energy benefits.

Targeted and sustained delivery of drugs to diseased tissues/organs, where body fluid exchange and catabolic activity are substantial, is challenging due to the fast cleansing and degradation of the drugs by these harsh environmental factors. Herein, a multifunctional and bioadhesive polycaprolactone-β-cyclodextrin (PCL-CD) polymersome is developed for localized and sustained co-delivery of hydrophilic and hydrophobic drug molecules. This PCL-CD polymersome affords multivalent crosslinking action via surface CD-mediated host–guest interactions to generate a supramolecular hydrogel that exhibits evident shear thinning and efficient self-healing behavior. The co-delivery of small molecule and proteinaceous agents by the encapsulated PCL-CD polymersomes enhances the differentiation of stem cells seeded in the hydrogel. Furthermore, the PCL-CD polymersomes are capable of in situ grafting to biological tissues via host–guest complexation between surface CD and native guest groups in the tissue matrix both in vitro and in vivo, thereby effectively extending the retention of loaded cargo in the grafted tissue. It is further demonstrated that the co-delivery of small molecule and proteinaceous drugs via PCL-CD polymersomes averts cartilage degeneration in animal osteoarthritic (OA) knee joints, which are known for their biochemically harsh and fluidically dynamic environment.

To better analyze the biosynthesis mechanism of cephalosporin C (CPC) inAcremonium chrysogenum, single-factor omission experiments and Plackett–Burman (PB) experimental design were employed to identify key components in the chemically defined medium. Response surface methodology (RSM) was then applied to optimize the concentrations of critical factors, achieving a final CPC titer of 4.70 g/L, which reached 59.54% of the titer obtained with complex medium. Methionine was identified as the most significant amino acid influencing CPC production during medium optimization. On the basis of these findings, transcriptomic analysis was conducted to elucidate the regulatory role of methionine. The results revealed that methionine enhances CPC biosynthesis by upregulating cysteine metabolism-related genes and activating primary metabolic pathways to supply precursors and energy for secondary metabolism. Additionally, methionine promoted hyphal swelling and arthrospore formation, leading to the upregulated expression of genes in CPC biosynthetic gene clusters. By integrating medium optimization with transcriptomic analysis, we provided more reliable insights into the regulatory role of methionine inA. chrysogenumgrowth and CPC biosynthesis using a chemically defined medium, offering valuable guidance for fermentation process optimization and subsequent metabolic engineering strategies.

Transport membrane condenser can efficiently recover water and heat from wet flue gas . Ceramic membrane is the heat and mass transfer medium in the process. However, the relationship between membrane property and the recovery performance is only partially reported based on current research state. This work focuses on the effects of permeability, material, and ceramic particle size of membrane on the water and heat recovery. Membranes were prepared from three different sizes of coal fly ash and an alumina powder. Water and heat recovery performances of the membranes are experimentally compared. Results indicate that increasing membrane permeability improves water and heat recovery because the resistance of heat and mass transfer is reduced. The alumina membrane performs 3–10% more water recovery than the coal fly ash-based membrane while thermal conductivity of the alumina membrane was 11.5 times that of the coal fly ash-based membrane. Increasing ceramic particle size shows two opposite effects on the water and heat recovery, promotion because of the permeability rising, and undermine because of the thermal conductivity reduction. Low-cost membranes with high permeability and high thermal conductivity are recommended in transport membrane condenser application.

Coal fly ash (CFA) is a substitute material for ceramic membrane which can effectively reduce the preparation cost. However, CFA based ceramic membranes usually show insufficient mechanical strength for application. Revealing pore-forming mechanisms of different pore-forming agents in membranes preparation is of great significance to improve mechanical strength without harming permeability. In this work, three different pore-forming agents, carbon powder, dolomite and dextrin, were adopted to prepare CFA membranes. Characters including porosity, pore size distribution and permeability of membranes were comparatively analyzed. Effects of pore-forming agents on membranes were discussed. The membrane with dextrin at 1200 °C sintering showed the best comprehensive properties. Its porosity, flexural strength and Darcian permeability coefficient were 39.46 %, 35.56 MPa and 3.84 × 10 −14 m 2 , respectively. Application in oil-in-water emulsion separation indicated higher than 94 % oil rejection. This research provides experimental bases for improving performances of low-cost CFA membranes, thereby conducive to engineering applications.
