The present study deals with the development of novel pH-sensitive tamarind seed polysaccharide (TSP)-alginate composite beads for controlled diclofenac sodium delivery using response surface methodology by full 32 factorial design. The effect of polymer-blend ratio (sodium alginate:TSP) and cross-linker (CaCl2) concentration on the drug encapsulation efficiency (DEE, %) and drug release from diclofenac sodium loaded TSP-alginate composite beads prepared by ionotropic gelation was optimized. The observed responses were coincided well with the predicted values by the experimental design. The DEE (%) of these beads containing diclofenac sodium was within the range between 72.23 ± 2.14 and 97.32 ± 4.03% with sustained in vitro drug release (69.08 ± 2.36-96.07 ± 3.54% in 10 h). The in vitro drug release from TSP-alginate composite beads containing diclofenac sodium was followed by controlled-release pattern (zero-order kinetics) with case-II transport mechanism. Particle size range of these beads was 0.71 ± 0.03-1.33 ± 0.04 mm. The swelling and degradation of the developed beads were influenced by different pH of the test medium. The FTIR and NMR analyses confirmed the compatibility of the diclofenac sodium with TSP and sodium alginate used to prepare the diclofenac sodium loaded TSP-alginate composite beads. The newly developed TSP-alginate composite beads are suitable for controlled delivery of diclofenac sodium for prolonged period.  相似文献

This work examines the influence of various process parameters (like sodium alginate concentration, calcium chloride concentration, and hardening time) on papain entrapped in ionotropically cross-linked alginate beads for stability improvement and site-specific delivery to the small intestine using neural network modeling. A 33 full-factorial design and feed-forward neural network with multilayer perceptron was used to investigate the effect of process variables on percentage of entrapment, time required for 50% and 90% of the enzyme release, particle size, and angle of repose. Topographical characterization was conducted by scanning electron microscopy, and entrapment was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. Times required for 50% (T50) and 90% (T90) of enzyme release were increased in all 3 of the process variables. Percentage entrapment and particle size were found to be directly proportional to sodium alginate concentration and inversely proportional to calcium chloride concentration and hardening time, whereas angle of repose and degree of cross-linking showed exactly opposite proportionality. Beads with >90% entrapment and T50 of <10 minutes could be obtained at the low levels of all 3 of the process variables. The inability of beads to dissolve in acidic environment, with complete dissolution in buffer of pH≥6.8, showed the suitability of beads to release papain into the small intestine. The shelf-life of the capsules prepared using the papain-loaded alginate beads was found to be 3.60 years compared with 1.01 years of the marketed formulation. It can be inferred from the above results that the proposed methodology can be used to prepare papain-loaded alginate beads for stability improvement and site-specific delivery.

Double enzymes (alcalase and trypsin) were effectively immobilized in a composite carrier (calcium alginate–chitosan) to produce immobilized enzyme beads referred to as ATCC. The immobilization conditions for ATCC were optimized, and the immobilized enzyme beads were characterized. The optimal immobilization conditions were 2.5% of sodium alginate, 10:4 sodium alginate to the double enzymes, 3:7 chitosan solution to CaCl2 and 2.5 h immobilization time. The ATCC beads had greatly enhanced stability and good usability compared with the free form. The ATCC residual activity was retained at 88.9% of DH (degree of hydrolysis) after 35 days of storage, and 36.0% of residual activity was retained after three cycles of use. The beads showed a higher zein DH (65.8%) compared with a single enzyme immobilized in the calcium alginate beads (45.5%) or free enzyme (49.3%). The ATCC kinetic parameters Vmax and apparent Km were 32.3 mL/min and 456.62 g−1, respectively. Active corn peptides (CPs) with good antioxidant activity were obtained from zein in the ethanol phase. The ATCC might be valuable for preparing CPs and industrial applications.  相似文献

Background

The objective of this study was to fabricate, characterize and evaluate in vitro, an injectable calcium sulfate bone cement beads loaded with an antibiotic nanoformulation, capable of delivering antibiotic locally for the treatment of periodontal disease.

Methods

Tetracycline nanoparticles (Tet NPs) were prepared using an ionic gelation method and characterized using DLS, SEM, and FTIR to determine size, morphology, stability and chemical interaction of the drug with the polymer. Further, calcium sulfate (CaSO4) control and CaSO4-Tet NP composite beads were prepared and characterized using SEM, FTIR and XRD. The drug release pattern, material properties and antibacterial activity were evaluated. In addition, protein adsorption, cytocompatibility and alkaline phosphatase activity of the CaSO4-Tet NP composite beads in comparison to the CaSO4 control were analyzed.

Results

Tet NPs showed a size range of 130 ± 20 nm and the entrapment efficiency calculated was 89%. The composite beads showed sustained drug release pattern. Further the drug release data was fitted into various kinetic models wherein the Higuchi model showed higher correlation value (R2 = 0.9279) as compared to other kinetic models. The composite beads showed antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The presence of Tet NPs in the composite bead didn't alter its cytocompatibility. In addition, the composite beads enhanced the ALP activity of hPDL cells.

Conclusions

The antibacterial and cytocompatible CaSO4-Tet NP composite beads could be beneficial in periodontal management to reduce the bacterial load at the infection site.

General significance

Tet NPs would deliver antibiotic locally at the infection site and the calcium sulfate cement, would itself facilitate tissue regeneration.  相似文献

Resting cells of the yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides (UOFS Y-0471) were immobilised in calcium alginate beads for the enantioselective kinetic resolution of racemic-1,2-epoxyoctane. The initial activity exhibited by immobilised cells was almost 50% lower than that of the free counterpart but was extremely stable when compared to the free cells. The concentration of the immobilised biomass had no effect on apparent enzyme activity but did lead to a decrease in single cell activity. An increase in both the alginate and CaCl2 concentrations used for bead preparation led to a decrease in enzyme stability. An increase in the alginate concentration led to an increase in bead diameter. The stoichiometric equation for cross-linking of alginate was only obeyed when CaCl2 concentrations higher than 0.4 M were utilised for bead preparation.  相似文献

Summary The dissolution of alginate gel beads in 20 g sodium citrate /l produces a linear decrease in bead diameter. The rate of dissolution is dependent on the concentration of CaCl2 within the gel beads. This method allows the controlled release of Saccharomyces cerevisiae from alginate gel beads and permits the simple and rapid determination of the radial distribution of cell concentration.  相似文献

This work investigates the development, optimization and in vitro evaluation of liquid paraffin-entrapped multiple-unit alginate-based floating system containing cloxacillin by emulsion-gelation method for gastro retentive delivery. The effect of process variables like drug to polymer ratio by weight, and liquid paraffin to water ratio by volume on various physicochemical properties in case of liquid paraffin-entrapped calcium alginate beads containing cloxacillin applicable to drug entrapment efficiency, density and drug release was optimized using 32 factorial design and analyzed using response surface methodology. The observed (actual values) responses were coincided well with the predicted values, given by the optimization technique. The optimized beads showed drug entrapment efficiency of 64.63 ± 0.78%, density of 0.90 ± 0.05 g/cm3, and drug release of 56.72 ± 0.85% in simulated gastric fluid (pH 1.2) after 8 h with floating lag time of 8.45 min and floated well over 12 h in simulated gastric fluid (pH 1.2). The average size of all dried beads ranged from 1.73 ± 0.04 to 1.97 ± 0.08 mm. The beads were characterized by SEM and FTIR for surface morphology and excipients-drug interaction analysis, respectively. All these beads showed prolonged sustained release of cloxacillin over 8 h in simulated gastric fluid (pH 1.2). The cloxacillin release profile from liquid paraffin beads followed Korsmeyer-Peppas model over a period of 8 h with anomalous (non-Fickian) diffusion mechanism for drug release.  相似文献

Abstract

α‐Amylase enzyme was produced by Aspergillus sclerotiorum under SSF conditions, and immobilized in calcium alginate beads. Effects of immobilization conditions, such as alginate concentration, CaCl2 concentration, amount of loading enzyme, bead size, and amount of beads, on enzymatic activity were investigated. Optimum alginate and CaCl2 concentration were found to be 3% (w/v). Using a loading enzyme concentration of 140 U mL?1, and bead (diameter 3 mm) amount of 0.5 g, maximum enzyme activity was observed. Beads prepared at optimum immobilization conditions were suitable for up to 7 repeated uses, losing only 35% of their initial activity. Among the various starches tested, the highest enzyme activity (96.2%) was determined in soluble potato starch hydrolysis for 120 min at 40°C.  相似文献

Streptomyces rimosus Pfizer 18234–2 cells were immobilized in calcium alginate and used for the production of oxytetracycline. The influence of the incubation period, alginate concentration and storage in CaCl2 were investigated. From the results of the repeated batch fermentations of the shake flasks, a good level of antibiotic was maintained for a period of about 28 days using 4% calcium alginate. The cell leakage and cell concentration inside the beads were affected by the alginate concentration and storage in CaCl2 solution.  相似文献

Yeast immobilized on alginate beads produced a higher ethanol yield more rapidly than did free yeast cells under the same batch-fermentation conditions. The optimal fermentation conditions were 30 °C, pH 5.0, and 10% initial glucose concentration with 2% sodium alginate beads. The fermentation time using reused alginate beads was 10-14 h, whereas fresh beads took 24 h, and free cells took 36 h. All bead samples resulted in nearly a 100% ethanol yield, whereas the free cells resulted in an 88% yield. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed that the shortened time and higher yield with the reused beads was due to a higher yeast population per bead as well as a higher porosity. The ultrastructure of calcium alginate beads and the alginate matrix structure known as the “egg-box” model were observed using TEM.  相似文献

Bifidobacterium longum KCTC 3128 and HLC 3742 were independently immobilized (entrapped) in calcium alginate beads containing 2, 3, and 4% sodium alginate. When the bifidobacteria entrapped in calcium alginate beads were exposed to simulated gastric juices and a bile salt solution, the death rate of the cells in the beads decreased proportionally with an increase in both the alginate gel concentration and bead size. The initial cell numbers in the beads affected the numbers of survivors after exposure to these solutions; however, the death rates of the viable cells were not affected. Accordingly, a mathematical model was formulated which expressed the influences of several parameters (gel concentration, bead size, and initial cell numbers) on the survival of entrapped bifidobacteria after sequential exposure to simulated gastric juices followed by a bile salt solution. The model proposed in this paper may be useful for estimating the survival of bifidobacteria in beads and establishing optimal entrapment conditions.  相似文献

Streptococcus thermophilusand Lactobacillus bulgaricus were co-immobilized in different systems with varying calcium (0.1–1.5M) and alginate (1–2<><>, w/v) concentrations. Highest lactic acid production was 35 g l1 when both bacteria were in high viscosity beads (1<><>, w/v alginate) hardened in 0.1 M CaCl2 .The gel bead composition affected size and distribution of entrapped lactic acid bacteria.  相似文献

Microalgae immobilization in alginate matrixes has been recently used to perform in situ experiments. However, the susceptibility of alginate matrixes to cation chelating agents and to antigelling cations, which can cause bead disruption or dissolution, is a major limitation for in situ exposures in estuarine and marine systems. The ultimate goal of this study was to produce alginate beads stable in seawater and suited for Phaeodactylum tricornutum growth. For this, different concentrations of alginate isolated from Macrocystis pyrifera (1.5, 1.9 and 2.3% [w/v]) and Laminaria hyperborea (4.0, 4.9 and 5.8% [w/v]), two concentrations of the hardening cations calcium and strontium (2.0 and 4.0% [w/v]), and the use of the polycation chitosan were investigated. Only beads found to be more stable after 16 days of exposure in seawater were inoculated with the microalga. P. tricornutum immobilized in beads prepared from 5.8% L. hyperborea alginate and in all beads in which a chitosan hardening treatment was applied showed a weak microalgal growth. Beads prepared using 4.9% of L. hyperborea alginate and a 4% (w/v) strontium solution were found to be the most stable and the most suitable for microalgal growth, and were exposed in the field, under natural fluctuating conditions of light and temperature. In situ growth rates of immobilized P. tricornutum cells demonstrated the potential of these beads for future use in in situ experiments in estuarine and marine systems.  相似文献

A novel halophilic alginate-degrading microorganism was isolated from rotten seaweed and identified as Isoptericola halotolerans CGMCC5336. The lyase from the strain was purified to homogeneity by combining of ammonium sulfate fractionation and anion-exchange chromatography with a specific activity of 8409.19 U/ml and a recovery of 25.07%. This enzyme was a monomer with a molecular mass of approximately 28 kDa. The optimal temperature and pH were 50 °C and pH 7.0, respectively. The lyase maintained stability at neutral pH (7.0–8.0) and temperatures below 50 °C. Metal ions including Na+, Mg2+, Mn2+, and Ca2+ notably increased the activity of the enzyme. With sodium alginate as the substrate, the Km and Vmax were 0.26 mg/ml and 1.31 mg/ml min, respectively. The alginate lyase had substrate specificity for polyguluronate and polymannuronate units in alginate molecules, indicating its bifunctionality. These excellent characteristics demonstrated the potential applications in alginate oligosaccharides production with low polymerisation degrees.  相似文献

Floating famotidine loaded mineral oil-entrapped emulsion gel (MOEG) beads were prepared by the emulsion–gelation method. Different polysaccharides (sodium alginate and pectin), oil concentrations (10%, 20% and 30% w/w) and drug:polymer (D:P) ratios (1:1, 2:1 and 3:1) were used and their influence on beads uniformity, drug entrapment efficiency (DEE) and in vitro drug release, was studied. The results clearly indicated that retardation of drug release for 4 h was achieved by the oil hydrophobic diffusional barrier, especially in the presence of the compact network of alginate beads. Calcium alginate beads containing 20% oil and 2:1 D:P ratio, showed an optimum DEE of 88.32%. When evaluated in vivo, this formula displayed superior antiulcer activity (>2) over drug suspension or marketed conventional tablets.  相似文献

The effective system of reusing mycelial fructosyltransferase (FTase) immobilized with two polymers, chitosan and alginate were evaluated for continuous production of fructooligosaccharides (FOS). The alginate beads were successfully developed by maintaining spherical conformation of using 0.3% (w/v) sodium alginate with 0.1% (w/v) of CaCl2 solution for highest transfructosylating activity. The characteristics of free and immobilized FTase were investigated and results showed that optimum pH and temperature of FTase activity were altered by immobilized materials. A successive production of FOS by FTase entrapped alginate beads was observed at an average of 62.96% (w/w) up to 7 days without much losing its activity. The data revealed by HPLC analysis culminate 67.75% (w/w) of FOS formation by FTase entrapped alginate beads and 42.79% (w/w) by chitosan beads in 36 h of enzyme substrate reaction.  相似文献

The kinetic, thermodynamic and isotherm modeling studies were carried out on adsorptive removal of Victoria blue (VB) dye using activated carbon, Ba/alginate and modified carbon/Ba/alginate polymer beads. The feasibility of sorption process was determined by varying the experimental parameters viz., dye concentration (4–20 mg L−1), contact time (10–90 min), pH (3–10), adsorbent dose (0.5–2.5 g) and temperature (303–343 K). Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms were determined and ascertained with the dimensionless separation factor (RL). Lagergren's pseudo-first order, pseudo-second order and intraparticle diffusion model equations were used to analyze the kinetics of the adsorption process. The thermodynamic consistency of adsorption was found with Gibbs free energy (ΔG°), changes in enthalpy (ΔH°) and entropy (ΔS°) were calculated using the Van’t Hoff plot. The polymer beads were characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and their morphology was determined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).  相似文献

The objective of this study was to identify polysaccharides with antioxidant properties for use as potential antioxidative compounds for extended-release matrix tablets. The antioxidant properties of five different polysaccharides, high molecular weight alginate (H-ALG), low molecular weight alginate (L-ALG), high molecular weight chitosan (H-chitosan), low molecular weight chitosan (L-chitosan), and pectic acid (PA) were examined using N-centered radicals from 1,1′-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2′-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) and reducing power, based on their ability to reduce Cu2+. L-chitosan and PA had acceptable scavenging abilities and were good radical scavengers, with good reducing power, but the H-chitosan and alginate derivatives were much less effective. The results suggest that L-chitosan and PA could be useful in combating oxidative stress. A PA and L-chitosan interpolymer complex (IPC) tablet was prepared and evaluated as an extended-release tablet matrix using theophylline (TPH) as a model drug. The release of TPH from the matrix tablet (TPH/PA/L-chitosan = 200 mg:150 mg:50 mg) was slower than that from PA only (TPH/PA/chitosans = 200 mg:200 mg:0 mg) or L-chitosan only (TPH/PA/L-chitosan = 200 mg:0 mg:200 mg) tablet. Turbidity measurements also indicated the optimum complexation ratio for IPC between PA/L-chitosan to be 1/3, indicating an acceptable relationship between the turbidity of the complex and the release ratio of TPH. These results suggest that an L-chitosan/PA complex would be potentially useful in an extended-release IPC tablet with high antioxidant activity.  相似文献

Summary A procedure which does not involve the use of an immiscible organic solvent phase is described for the entrapment of yeast cells in porous beads of polyacrylamide gel. The cells are rapidly dispersed at 4° C in an aqueous solution containing sodium alginate and acrylamide-N,Nmethylene-bis-acrylamide monomer, and the suspension is immediately dropped into a solution of calcium formate to give calcium alginate coated beads. Polyacrylamide gel forms within the bead. The calcium alginate is subsequently leached out of the composite bead with either sodium citrate or potassium phosphate buffer solution. Cells of Saccharomyces uvarum ATCC 26 602 entrapped in such polyacrylamide beads ferment cane molasses in batch mode at higher specific ethanol productivity than a free cell suspension. Their volumetric productivity in continuous fermentation is higher than that of Ca2+-alginate immobilized cells.NCL Communication No. 4383  相似文献

Bacillus subtilis PE-11 cells were immobilized in calcium alginate and used for the production of alkaline protease. The influence of alginate concentration, different cations, concentration of cation, curing time, bead diameter and nutrient strength on alkaline protease production and stability of biocatalyst were investigated. Repeated batch fermentations of immobilized cells in shake flasks were carried out with the optimized parameters such as; 3% alginate, 0.25 M calcium chloride with 1 h curing time, 3.24 mm bead diameter and 0.75% glucose and 0.75% peptone as nutrients. The results indicated that, a good level of enzyme was maintained for a period of about 9 days. The immobilized cells of B. subtilis PE-11 in calcium alginate are more efficient for the production of alkaline protease with repeated batch fermentation.  相似文献
