P(AA-co-DMAA) superporous drug-loaded hydrogels containing berberine hydrochloride were prepared by dispersion polymerization in foam system with acrylic acid (AA) and N,N-dimethyl acrylamide (DMAA) as monomers. Then sodium alginate (SA) as the second network was added to the system, and P(AA-co-DMAA)/SA interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) hydrogels were formed. The effects of pH value, reaction time between SA and glutaric dialdehyde (GA), the concentration of SA and GA on release behavior of berberine hydrochloride were discussed. The FT-IR spectra showed that P(AA-co-DMAA)/SA IPN hydrogels were synthesized successfully. The inverted fluorescence micrograph of P(AA-co-DMAA)/SA showed that some part of the superporous structures were still retained.The cumulative release profiles showed that the release rates were slightly higher in pH=6.8 phosphate buffer solution (PBS) than the one in pH=1 HCl solution. The release rate was the slowest in distilled water, only 7.3% within 24h. When the reaction time between SA and GA was shortened, the release speed of berberine hydrochloride became faster. The pore size of P(AA-co-DMAA) hydrogels was reduced with the concentration of SA and GA increased, and the release rate decreased due to the more dense network structures.

A series of pH/temperature sensitive hydrogel beads with semi-interpenetrating polymer network (semi-IPN), composed of sodium alginate and poly(N-acryloylglycinate) were prepared as drug delivery carrier. In pH=2.3 phosphate buffer solution (PBS), the release amount of indomethacin incorporated into the beads was about 9% within 610 min, while this value approached to 68% in pH=7.4 PBS. The release rate of indomethacin was higher at 37 than that at 20 . In addition, the release amount of indomethacin was increased with increasing poly(N-acryloylglycinate) content. These results suggest that the stimuli-sensitive beads have the potential to be used as an effective pH/temperature delivery system in bio-medical fields.

Background: Graphene quantum dots (GQD) is a new member of carbon nanomaterial that has attracted increasing attention owing to its better chemical inertness, low cytotoxicity, large specific surface area, cheap cost, suitable conductivity and excellent biocompatibility. Methods: Electrochemical behaviors of this modified electrode were studied by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Electrochemical investigations of Nafion/Hb/GQD/ CILE were carried out with electrochemical parameters calculated. Results: In the phosphate buffer solution with a pH value of 5.0, good linear relationships between the catalytic reduction current and the concentration of substrate were got for TCA (6.0~100.0 mmol·L-1), NaNO2 (2.0~12.0 mmol·L-1) and H2O2 (6.0~30.0 mmol·L-1). The proposed method was applied to NaNO2 concentration detection in soak water from picked vegetables with satisfactory results. Conclusion: This Nafion/Hb/GQD/CILE had a good bioelectrocatalytic activity to different substrates such as trichloroacetic acid, NaNO2 and H2O2 reduction with the advantages including wide detection range, low detection limit and good stability. Therefore, the application of GQD in electrochemical sensor was extended in this paper.

ABSTRACTMolybdenum trioxide sol-gel matrices were tested for their ability to host biomaterials in their structures without adversely affecting the activity of the encapsulated biomolecules. The sol-gel composites were prepared at room temperature; the urease was added during the hydrolysis step to ensure proper encapsulation in the pore structure of the sol. Phosphate buffer solution was added during this stage to maintain the pH value of the sol in the bio-compatible range. The activity of incorporated urease was tested by exposing composite sol-gel material to standard urea test solutions and measuring the amount of gaseous ammonia (released by the reaction of urea with water in the presence of urease) using an ammonia electrode. The concentration of urea solutions ranged from 1mM to 10mM. An electronic olfactory system (EOS 835) was also employed to detect the presence of gaseous ammonia. Gas sensing tests were done to verify the sensitivity of the matrix to ammonia. Microstructural analysis was carried out by means of scanning and transmission electron microscopy. It was found that urease retained its activity inside molybdenum trioxide sol-gels that are sensitive to ammonia. These hybrid nanoporous composites are useful in the field of biosensors and fuel cells.

In this paper, a new pH/temperature-sensitive beads with semi-interpenetrating polymeric network based on sodium alginate(SA) and poly(aspartic acid) derivatives(M-E-PSI) were prepared using as drug delivery carrier. With indomethacin as a drug model,we investigated the release behaviors of indomethacin in different pH value, temperature and ratio of SA/ M-E-PSI. It turned out that the release amount of indomethacin in pH=2.1 phosphate buffer solution(PBS) was evidently higher than that in pH=7.4 PBS. And also, the release amount of indomethacin was also increased with increasing temperature and poly(aspartic acid) derivatives content in the beads.

The enormous needs in ensuring the measurement of the hydrogen index in various industries and the national economy of Russia make the measurement of the hydrogen index one of the most important methods for monitoring aqueous media. In 2013, work was carried out to enter into the State Register of Measuring Instruments of the Russian Federation a buffer solution and a standard titer with a pH value of 7.00 – a working pH standard of the 2nd category, which is one of the most demanded of non-standard solutions for verification and calibration pH measuring instruments. To confirm the metrological characteristics, pilot comparisons were organized within COOMET. This article presents the results of a pilot comparison to determine the pH of a phosphate buffer solution – a working standard of рН=7.00. 8 metrological institutes and 10 metrological organizations took part in the comparisons. The results obtained showed that the overwhelming majority of the participants in the comparisons presented the results of pH measurements, which have an uncertainty not exceeding ±0.03 of the average value, which is an acceptable criterion for measuring the pH.

A convenient and useful method for the voltammetric determination of dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA) based on poly (Phthalo blue) modified carbon paste electrode (PTBMCPE) is reported in this paper. The PTBMCPE exhibits excellent electro-catalytic activities for the oxidationreduction of DA and UA, as well as eliminating the interference. Factors influencing the detection processes are optimized and the kinetic parameters are calculated. The effects of pH, scan rate and concentration of dopamine on the peak current were investigated, and the results indicated that the peak current of dopamine is the highest in 0.2 M pH 7.0 Phosphate buffer solution (PBS) and the electrode reaction corresponds to a rate-controlled process. The proposed method possesses the distinct advantages of simple, appropriate for operation, good reproducibility and highly selective and sensitive.

In this study, composite films of stearic acid–modified magnesium oxide whiskers (Sa–w-MgO)/poly-l-lactic acid (PLLA) were prepared through solution casting, and the in vitro degradation properties and cytocompatibility of the composites with different whisker contents were investigated. The results showed that the degradation behavior of the composite samples depended significantly on the whisker content, and the degradation rate increased with the addition of MgO content. Furthermore, the degradation of the composites with higher contents of whiskers was influenced more severely by the hydrophilicity and pH value, leading to more final weight loss, but the decomposition rate decreased gradually. Furthermore, the pH value of the phosphate buffer solution (PBS) was obviously regulated by the dissolution of MgO whiskers through neutralization of the acidic product of PLLA degradation. The cytocompatibility of the composites also increased remarkably, as determined from the cell viability results, and was higher than that of PLLA at the chosen whisker content. This was beneficial for the cell affinity of the material, as it notably led to an enhanced biocompatibility of the PLLA, in favor of promoting cell proliferation, which significantly improved its bioactivity, as well.
