Long-term antibacterial medical dressings can prevent infection as skin wounds heal. In this study, we used the hydrophobic antibacterial drug amoxicillin as a model to prepare drug-loaded nanomicelles using a film dispersion–hydration method, and drug-loaded nanomicelles were coaxially electrospun into nanofiber to create a novel nanomicelle-in-nanofiber (NM-in-NF) drug delivery system. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy were used to characterize the morphology of nanomicelles and nanofibers. Thermal property of as-prepared samples was tested using differential scanning calorimetry. The drug release behavior, cytotoxicity, and antibacterial properties of NM-in-NFs were examined in vitro to evaluate the system’s potential to be used in the treatment of skin wounds. Experimental results indicated that the novel NM-in-NF system had dual controlled release effect, which greatly reduced burst release and prolonged effective drug duration. Moreover, NM-in-NFs was also found to be safe and non-toxic, with a broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. It thus could potentially be used in long-term antibacterial medical dressings to treat skin wounds.

In this work, the tumor-targeted ultra-pH-responsive conjugates (PBA/Dex-g-OE) and nontargeted conjugates (Dex-g-OE) were successfully prepared and could easily self-assemble into stable micelles with lower CMC values in neutral aqueous solution. Transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering measurement indicated that the resulting micelles have desirable size distribution and regular spherical shape. The PBA/Dex-g-OE micelles possessed high stability in physiological condition and were pH sensitive to both extracellular and intracellular acidic conditions. Doxorubicin (DOX) was efficiently loaded to give the DOX-loaded micelles (PBA/Dex-g-OE-DOX and Dex-g-OE-DOX) with the desirable drug loading contents. In vitro cellular uptake and growth inhibition assays suggested that PBA/Dex-g-OE-DOX micelles were more efficiently internalized by monolayer tumor cells and three-dimensional multicellular tumor spheroids (MCTS) than nontargeted micelles (Dex-g-OE-DOX), leading to the fast and complete destruction of MCTS in vitro.

Remediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in oily sludge has become the focus of attention. UV spectrophotometer analysis showed that four types of PAHs were found in sample, which including phenanthrene, anthracene, benzo( a )anthracene and benzo( b )fluoranthene. In order to degrade PAH effectively, the laccase reverse micelles system was proposed. The system protects laccase from being affected by organic phase. Reverse micelles were prepared by using isooctane to simulate oil. The optimum water content W 0 was 10 by measuring the electrical conductivity of the system. Under this condition, the effects of pH, temperature and ionic strength on the degradation rate of PAHs were investigated. Also, compared with that of non-immobilized laccase, the ratio between the secondary structures of laccase under different conditions was studied. The results showed that the highest laccase activity was obtained at pH 4.2 and 30 °C with 60 mmol/L KCl. Meanwhile, the structure of α-helix accounts for the largest proportion, and the ratio of α-helix in the laccase secondary structure in the laccase-reverse micelle system was higher than that of the non-immobilized one under this condition. Finally, predicting the reactive site of the degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons was simulated by ORCA (Version 4.2.0). The application in oily sludge was further conducted. This study provides an effective method and basis for the degradation of PAHs in oily sludge.

A series of well-defined thermoresponsive graft polymers with different lengths and graft densities, poly(glycidyl methacrylate)- graft -poly( N -isopropylacrylate) (PGMA- g -PNIPAM), were successfully prepared by combination of controlled/living free radical polymerization and click chemistry. Effects of grafting length and density on the thermoresponsive behavior, aggregating mean diameter, and self-assembly morphology are systematically investigated. The thermosensitive characteristics of graft polymers in aqueous solution prove that the length and graft density had positive co-relationship with the lower critical solution temperature value and mean diameter of micelles as well as the size distribution, while the effect of graft length of polymers is more significant than that of density. Transmission electron microscopy analysis shows that the conformations of PGMA 45 - g -PNIPAM 20 and PGMA 45 - g -PNIPAM 46 with longer length and bigger grafting density in aqueous solutions are spherical nanoparticles with the increasing trend of the diameters, while that of PGMA 45 - g -PNIPAM (73, 50%) shows a spherical-like morphology, which indicates that the graft length and density have a significant effect on the mean diameter of micelle but not on the self-assembly morphology. These results reveal that to obtain desired thermoresponsive behavior and self-assembly morphology of functional polymers, it is essential to design and fabricate the structure of graft polymers with proper length and graft density. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

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.

In this work, amphiphilic acrylicpimaric acid polyglycol ester (APAPG) was synthesized by steglich esterification method. The structure transformation and aggregation behaviors of APAPG in water were investigated by Rayleigh light scattering (RLS) technique in a heating and cooling cycle. For concentration above critical micelle concentration (CMC), a reversible transition from micelle to aggregation was observed. The structure transformation process involved irreversible aggregation and disaggregation processes at low temperature and a reversible aggregation process at high temperature when the concentration closed to CMC. Accordingly, the information about each structure transformation behavior in the concentration far below CMC during heating process including individual unimers, aggregation and disaggregation were thoroughly revealed. However, the structure transformation behavior is irreversible in the cooling process. The structure transformation and aggregation behaviors were assessed by dynamic light scattering (DLS), microcalorimetry and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques. The results indicate that the RLS technique can provide detailed information about structural evolution at molecular level of polymer chains.

Here we report novel shear-sensitive polymeric large compound micelles (LCMs) formed by self-assembly of glutathione end-capped poly(4-vinylpyridine) (GP4VP) in water containing 4 vol% methanol. The amphiphile prefers to form the kinetically stabilized LCMs due to the small length ratio of the hydrophilic part to the hydrophobic part; the encapsulation of the hydrophilic part within LCMs causes only a small enthalpy loss from a thermodynamic view. Sheared by vortex flows generated by vigorous stir, the LCMs evolve to thick wall vesicles, thin wall vesicles, broken vesicles and "pearl-necklace" structures consecutively. The high flexibility of the LCMs and the internal tension caused by the encapsulation of the hydrophilic part are responsible for the high shear sensitivity of the LCMs.

A series of amphiphilic PDMAEMA–SS–PCL chains with variable ratios of hydrophilic poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) to hydrophobic poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) were prepared via ring-opening polymerization, in which the two different moieties were linked via a disulfide bond with reduction responsiveness. After cross-linking by the photodegradable o-nitrobenzyl linkage, the amphiphilic chains could self-assemble into microspheres, branched cylindrical micelles and vesicles, which were responsive to the reduction agent DL-dithiothreitol and UV light irradiation through different mechanisms.

For the control of pulverized coal, we propose a dust suppressant by applying a blend of mixed polyethylene oxide (g-PEO) and sodium dodecyl sulfate ( SDS ). In our experimental study, the thermal characteristics, critical micelle concentration ( CMC ), wettability and adhesion of the dust suppressant are investigated. It was found that g-PEO had a low fusing temperature and its combustion temperature was close to that of coal, thus, the solution containing g-PEO applied coal dust control did not affect the use of the coal. Based on steady-state fluorescence using pyrene as a fluorescent label, quantitative analysis revealed that the CMC s of g-PEO and SDS were 1 and 20 g/L in g-PEO& SDS solution, respectively. The solution containing SDS had the best wettability, but it only had a short-term effect. The solution containing g-PEO showed negligible wetting ability to wet coal dust. The solution containing g-PEO& SDS had better wetting ability and adhesion. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the coal dust covered by g-PEO& SDS on its surface could form a thin layer of armor by holding the particles together after air-drying. It was concluded that the g-PEO& SDS solution containing g-PEO for 1 g/L and SDS for 20 g/L could suppress coal dust and maintain a long-term effect.

Two structurally similar imidazolium-based anionic surface active ionic liquids (SAILs) with double hydrocarbon chains, viz. 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (C 4 mim-AOT) and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate (C 4 mim-DEHP), were synthesized by a straightforward ion-exchange technique. A comparative investigation of their aggregation behavior with the corresponding traditional anionic surfactants, sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (Na-AOT) and sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate (Na-DEHP) in aqueous solution was performed in detail by surface tension, electric conductivity, fluorescence spectra and dynamic light scattering measurements. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) values for the surfactants with double hydrocarbon chains obtained by different techniques are in good agreement. The surface activity of C 4 mim-AOT and C 4 mim-DEHP is superior to that of the corresponding traditional anionic surfactants, Na-AOT and Na-DEHP. It is also found that for anionic SAILs the nature of the anionic active group is a dominant factor in the determination of their aggregation behavior in aqueous solution, e.g. CMC and aggregation number, while the introduced organic cation plays a minor role. Theoretical calculations show that more conformations and electronegativity for DEHP anion leads to higher aggregation number and CMC values for C 4 mim-DEHP. This work is expected to be of practical values for the environmental friendly anion SAILs in nanomaterial synthesis and phase separation, etc.

A series of polymeric surfactants , poly acrylic acid rosin polyethylene glycol esters (P-AAR-PEG), have been synthesized from natural diterpenic rosin. Their structures were characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer (FTIR) and their molecular weights were characterized by Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC). Their critical micelle concentration (CMC), surface tension (γ CMC ), foaming property (FP), and hydrophile-lipophile balance (HLB) value were evaluated. Their thermal properties were measured by Thermal Gravimetric Analyzer (TGA) and fluid behaviors were studied by Rotational Rheometer. The influence of concentration on the properties of oil-in-water emulsions was examined and contrasted the stability of emulsion by the mean droplet size between day1 and day7. The weight-average molecular weight of P-AAR-PEG ranged from 1770 to 5071. CMC values of P-AAR-PEG were ranged from 0.33 to 0.87 g/L and the corresponding γ CMC values were ranged from 37.8 to 39.1 mN/m respectively. Their CMC and γ CMC values decreased and then increased with the increment of molecular weight of hydrophile group. Rheological measurements indicated that the P-AAR-PEG solutions changed from pseudoplastic property to Newtonian with increasing shear rate. P-AAR-PEG1000 had good emulsion ability to turpentine in water. When the concentration of P-AAR-PEG1000 was 8 wt%, the emulsion remained stable for more than 7 days.

Aqueous polyurethane micelles from 2,4,6-trichlorphenol blocking terminal-isocynate pre-polymer were prepared which could be de-blocked at low temperature. The prepared aqueous blocked polyurethane micelles (BPUMs) were uniform and spherical micro-particles. The particle size was decreased with increase of the DMPA content, while it was enlarged at first and then gradually decreased by increasing R -value. The stability of the micelles was affected by the R value, blocked efficiency and DMPA content. HDI-BPUMs were more stable than HDI-BPUMs at the same condition. The stability was further researched by the zeta potential combining with technique and viscosity tracking method, and the initial zeta potential be used as the stability criterion. In addition, a stabilization mechanism of the micelles was proposed. TCP-blocked TDI-BPUMs could be initially de-blocked at about 75°C and TCP-blocked HDI-BPUMs was de-blocked at about 80°C. The de-blocking temperature could be further reduced in the presence of catalyst, but it was scarcely affected by the change of R -value and DMPA content. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.
