Background: Nanoparticles made of silica are new materials that can be used in a wide range of drug delivery methods because they are biocompatible and biodegradable. Mesalamine, a classic water-soluble medication, remains loaded into the synthesized silica nanoparticle and is considered for sustained release proficiency. Precipitation approach using high surface area and pore volume tetraethyl orthosilicate yielded mesalamine-loaded silica nanoparticles. Methods: The drug-loaded nanoparticle was created and produced using two different techniques. Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray powder diffraction, Brauer Emmett teller, scanning electron microscopy, particle size measurements, and dissolution investigations have all been used to analyse the substance in some way or another. Results: Because of the high surface area, well-known results like the complete silica nanoparticle created using method-2 remained mesoporous. The onset peak of the method-2 formulation's DSC was 182.27°c, and the offset peak was 192.14°c, consistent with the DSC results. The particle size range varies from 205-225nm. The results demonstrate that the uptake of the mesalamine by burst release it for 30 minutes initial, followed by sustained maintenance of dose even after 240 minutes. The results indicate that the loading process has an effect on the extent of loading. When silica nanoparticles were impregnated with mesalamine, the amount of the drug contained was significantly higher than when they were wetted. Conclusion: In addition, the XRD results show that both the pure mesalamine and the formulation did not show any polymorphic deviation.

The aim of the present work was to design and synthesize of mesoporous silica nanoparticles as topical hydrogel formulation for inclusion of poorly water soluble antifungal drug like Luliconazole as a drug delivery platform. The SBA-15 was prepared to evaluate its application as a carrier for Luliconazole drug delivery. Its molecular size was suitable for incorporation in to the mesoporous of the SBA-15 materials. The SBA-15 was characterized by FTIR, UV analysis, Particle size, Transmission electron microscopy. The Synthesized Mesoporous silica i.e. SBA-15 was of mean particle size of 15 nm and specific area 283.763m2/g respectively. The results revealed that prepared mesoporous silica have small particle size, high surface area, and enhanced drug dissolution rate. The results obtained showed that Luliconazole was loaded with great efficiency into the SBA-15 which leads to enhanced diffusion of drug. Luliconazole hydrogel formulations improved medication permeation across the skin appropriate polymer was used to produce the formulation (Carbopol 934p and HPMC). The physiochemical parameters of all the established luliconazole formulations were assessed, including gel appearance, pH, viscosity, spreadability, globule size, Zeta potential, and drug content. Many of the above parameters yielded positive outcomes but F1 and F3 batch results was were unacceptable ranges. It can be assumed that the formulation F1 and F3 resulted in improved spreadability, stability, and homogeneity, as well as a stronger drug release analysis.

Over the past few decades, nanoparticles have been attracting significant attention of researches in chemical, biomedical, pharmaceutical sciences, due to their unique physicochemical properties. This includes ultra small size, large surface area, good biocompatibility and high reactivity. In particular, nanoparticles are promising for pharmaceutical and biomedical fields, as they can be applied as drug carriers and diagnostic tools. Among nanomaterials for biomedical application, silica nanoparticles exhibit great potential due to their straightforward synthesis and separation, low cost, safety, biocompatibility and possibility to further functionalization. Silica nanoparticles have been attractive for pharmaceutical science due to their unique properties, such as tunable size, high surface area and large pore volume, and potential in biomedical application as drug and gene delivery vectors and bioimaging agents. However, some of their properties remain poorly investigated. This short communication discusses the main routes for synthesis of silica nanoparticles, their properties and opportunities for their application in pharmaceutical and biomedical industries, as well as a few challenges in the development of silica-based systems that need to be overcome.

The development of new styrene-based hyper-crosslinked nanocomposites (HCLN) containing mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) is reported here as a new strategy to obtain functional high surface area materials with an enhanced hydrophilic character. The HCLN composition, morphology and porous structure were analyzed using a multi-technique approach. The HCLN displayed a high surface area (above 1600 m2/g) and higher microporosity than the corresponding hyper-crosslinked neat resin. The enhanced adsorption properties of the HCLN towards polar organic dyes was demonstrated through the adsorption of a reactive dye, Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RB). In particular, the HCLN containing 5phr MSN showed the highest adsorption capacity of RB.

Excellent Photocatalytic Activity

A series of mesoporous graphitic carbon nitride (mpg-C3N4) materials are synthesized by directly pyrolyzing melamine containing many embedded silica nanoparticles templates, and then etching the silica templates from the carbonized products. The mass ratio of melamine-to-silica templates and the size of the silica nanoparticles are found to dictate whether or not mpg-C3N4 with large surface area and high porosity form. The surfaces of the mpg-C3N4 materials are then decorated with copper (Cu) nanoparticles, resulting in Cu-decorated mpg-C3N4 composite materials that show excellent photocatalytic activity for degradation of tartrazine yellow dye. The materials’ excellent photocatalytic performance is attributed to their high surface area and the synergistic effects created in them by mpg-C3N4 and Cu nanoparticles, including the Cu nanoparticles’ greater ability to separate photogenerated charge carriers from mpg-C3N4.

AbstractSurface plasmons have found a wide range of applications in plasmonic and nanophotonic devices. The combination of plasmonics with three-dimensional photonic crystals has enormous potential for the efficient localization of light in high surface area photoelectrodes. However, the metals traditionally used for plasmonics are difficult to form into three-dimensional periodic structures and have limited optical penetration depth at operational frequencies, which limits their use in nanofabricated photonic crystal devices. The recent decade has seen an expansion of the plasmonic material portfolio into conducting ceramics, driven by their potential for improved stability, and their conformal growth via atomic layer deposition has been established. In this work, we have created three-dimensional photonic crystals with an ultrathin plasmonic titanium nitride coating that preserves photonic activity. Plasmonic titanium nitride enhances optical fields within the photonic electrode while maintaining sufficient light penetration. Additionally, we show that post-growth annealing can tune the plasmonic resonance of titanium nitride to overlap with the photonic resonance, potentially enabling coupled-phenomena applications for these three-dimensional nanophotonic systems. Through characterization of the tuning knobs of bead size, deposition temperature and cycle count, and annealing conditions, we can create an electrically- and plasmonically-active photonic crystal as-desired for a particular application of choice.

Degradation Rates

Hydrothermal reactions represent a simple and efficient method for the preparation of nanostructured TiO2 particles that could be of interest as photocatalysts or catalytic supports. Although the particle size is in the range of 2–5 µm, the nanostructures composing the particles ensure a large specific surface area with values above 100 m2/g. The effects of the different synthesis parameters on the morphology, photocatalytic activity, and stability of the prepared material were studied. The surface morphology of the prepared TiO2 powders was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). To further characterize the samples, the specific surface area for different morphologies was measured and the photocatalytic activity of the prepared powders was tested by degrading model pollutants under UV irradiation. The results show that the initial morphology had little effect on the photocatalytic properties. On the other hand, the final calcination temperature significantly increased the degradation rates, making it comparable to that of P25 TiO2 (particle size 20–30 nm).
