Swelling behavior of poly(vinyl alcohol) cryogels employed as matrices for cell immobilization

Poly(vinyl alcohol) cryogels are prepared from aqueous solutions of the polymer by freezing and thawing and are employed as matrices for cell immobilization. The swelling behavior of these macroporous gel carriers in pure water and in solutions of certain compounds (salts, amino acids, and glucose) was studied to elucidate the osmotic properties of the cryogels during long-term exposure to aqueous media. It was shown that after the initial sol fraction was washed out, the residual gel matrix possessed high stability even at extreme pH conditions (acid or alkali concentration up to 1.0 mol l⁻¹) or in the presence of strong chaotropic salts such as sodium rhodanide. Although the macroporous supermolecular structure of the carriers under consideration underwent certain changes as a result of aging processes during prolonged washing of the gel, the high porous morphology of the material was retained.     

Reduced Methylene Blue as a Stain for Crustacean Nerves

Effective in situ staining of crustacean nerves was achieved with leuco methylene blue reduced with either ascorbic acid or sodium hydrosulfite (Na₂S₂O₄). A stock solution of methylene blue, 0.4% (ca. 0.001 M), and the reductants, ascorbic acid or sodium hydrosulfite (0.01 M), were prepared in van Harreveld's crayfish physiological solution. Methylene blue stock solution was mixed with either of the reductants in the approximate ratio of 1:10, v/v, and titrated to the end point. Ascorbic acid reduction is light catalyzed and requires intense illumination during titration. The cleared or leucomethylene blue stock solution is suitable for immediate use as a working nerve stain. With either reductant, the working solution oxidizes on standing in air, but can be titrated repeatedly without loss of staining properties. Dissected nerve trunks or tissue were immersed in the working stain for 20 min at room temperature and the staining process observed until suitable contrast developed. Excess dye was decanted and the tissues flooded with crayfish physiological solution. Contrast could sometimes be enhanced by flooding the stained area with 1% hydrogen peroxide in van Harreveld's solution. When permanent mounts were prepared, tissues were dehydrated with tertiary butyl alcohol in preference to ethyl alcohol series. For anatomical and neurophysiological studies of nerve distribution in crustaceans, the alternative use of either ascorbic acid or sodium hydrosulfite, as reductants for methylene blue, was preferable to the more complicated rongalit-technique and characterization of neural elements was fully as satisfactory.     

Analysis of methylene blue in human urine by capillary electrophoresis

A capillary electrophoresis method for the determination of the dye methylene blue (tetramethylthionine, MB) in human urine depending on liquid/liquid-extraction and diode array detection has been developed, validated, and applied to samples of healthy individuals, who had been dosed with methylene blue within clinical studies. After extraction with dichloromethane and sodium hexanesulfonate, sample extracts were measured on an extended light path capillary. The dye was detected simultaneously at 292 and 592 nm using methylene violet 3 RAX as internal standard. The limit of quantification was 1.0 microg/ml. The accuracy of the method varied between -15.2 and +0.8% and the precision ranged from 2.0 to 12.0%. The method was linear at least within 1.0 and 60 microg/ml. In contrast to earlier indirect determinations no leuco methylene blue (LMB) was directly detected in urine, whereas in aqueous test solutions containing surplus amounts of ascorbic acid leuco methylene blue was well separated from MB in a single run.     

Effect of nitrogen source concentration on decolouration rates of laboratory dyes by immobilized cells of two bacterial species

The aim of this study was to assess the effect of sodium nitrate concentration on the decolouration of laboratory dyes (bromothymol blue, crystal violet, eosin blue, eosin yellow and methylene blue), by alginate immobilized cells of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus subtilis. The sodium nitrate concentrations used in the study were 5, 10, 15 and 20 g/L. A control setup that contained no sodium nitrate was also studied. During incubation, aliquot samples were withdrawn from each flask every 24 for 144 h duration for the estimation of decolouration rate of the dyes, using standard procedures. The results revealed remarkable decolouration of the bromothymol blue and crystal violet in presence of the P. aeruginosa occurring at sodium nitrate concentrations of 10 and 15 g/L, respectively. In the case of media that was inoculated with the B. subtilis cells, although no remarkable decolouration of the bromothymol blue and crystal violet was observed throughout the period of incubation, highest decolouration were observed at sodium nitrate concentration of 5 and 10 g/L, respectively. For the eosin blue and methylene dyes, no remarkable decolouration were observed in presence of the test bacterial species at the respective sodium nitrate concentrations. Highest decolouration of the eosin yellow was however observed in media with sodium nitrate concentration of 5 g/L. The results of this study could be applied in scale up studies and continuous process, for implementation in biological decolouration of dye effluents.

Preparation of crosslinked macroporous PVA foam carrier for immobilization of microorganisms

In this work, a new and economical way to prepare macroporous poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) foam was explored by adding calcium carbonate as a pore-forming agent and using epichlorhydrin as a chemical crosslinking agent to improve foam stability. The mixture for foam formation has been optimized to obtain macroporous PVA foam carriers with uniform apertures, narrow distribution of pore sizes, and good elasticity. The crosslinked PVA foam (CPVAF) carrier demonstrated better chemical and thermal stability, as well as larger specific surface area and diffusion coefficients than the traditional PVA (TPVA) carrier. Nitrifying bacteria were used to test the suitability of CPVAF and TPVA carriers for immobilized microorganisms. CPVAF carriers supported higher biomass density and microbial activity than TPVA carriers. At the same biomass density, the higher nitrification rate of CPVAF carriers was attributed to excellent mass transfer of the substrate (and oxygen) between the bulk solution and the immobilized microorganisms.     

Encapsulation of the peptide Ac-Glu-Thr-Lys-Thr-Tyr-Phe-Trp-Lys-NH2 into polyvinyl alcohol biodegradable formulations—Effect of calcium alginate

It has been recently reported that the peptide Ac-Glu-Thr-Lys-Thr-Tyr-Phe-Trp-Lys-NH₂, analogue of the Glu1811-Lys1818 region of A3 light chain of blood coagulation factor VIII, presents in vitro significant anticoagulant activity. The encapsulation of this peptide into different polyvinyl alcohol formulations is examined here. The formulations were prepared using polyvinyl alcohol cross-linked with either boric acid or glutaraldehyde, giving a series of twelve different hydrogels. In case of PVA-boric acid method, a small percentage of sodium alginate was used in order to avoid bead's agglomeration. In that case, the most efficient encapsulation of the octapeptide (74%) was achieved with 0.2% (w/w) sodium alginate. It was also observed that the increase in sodium alginate percentage leads to beads with increased peptide release time, ranging from 60 to 90 min at 0.02% and 1% (w/w) sodium alginate respectively. The water holding of the PVA gels was estimated to be 27% regardless of the cross-linking reagent used, while it was increased with increasing sodium alginate concentration and reached about 60% for 1% sodium alginate. The longer octapeptide release, at 120 min, was observed with PVA-glutaraldehyde hydrogel, with encapsulation efficiency comparable to those obtained with boric acid, indicating that this hydrogel may be further used in drug delivery systems.

History of Staining the Staining of Blood and Parasitic Protozoa

By the term “blood stain” one ordinarily means a compound dye formed from the chemical union of an acid and a basic dye, and usually a compound of the eosin-methylene-blue group. It is well known today that the sodium salt of a color acid (e. g. eosin) and the chloride of a dye base (e. g. methylene blue) may be converted by simple metathesis into sodium chloride plus the compound dye (e. g. methylene blue eosinate), the latter being insoluble in water unless an excess is present of either the acid or the basic dye. In modern blood stains a compound dye of this type is dissolved in methyl alcohol and mixed with water on the slide at the moment of staining.
