Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) is a method allowing in situ visualization of protein transport in porous chromatography resins. CLSM requires labeling a protein with a fluorescent probe. Recent work has shown that conjugation of the protein with fluorescent probes can lead to significant changes in the retention time of the protein-dye conjugate with respect to the unlabeled protein. In this study, we show that common labeling procedures result in a heterogeneous mixture of different variants and that attachment location of the fluorescent probe on the protein surface can have a strong effect on the retention of protein-dye conjugate. Lysozyme was labeled with Cy5 and BODIPY-FL succinimidyl esters, followed by chromatographic separation of the different lysozyme-dye conjugates and subsequent determination of the label position using MALDI-TOF-MS. Finally, homogenously labeled lysozyme-dye conjugates were used in CLSM experimentation and compared to published results arising from heterogeneously labeled feedstocks. The results confirm that the attachment location of the fluorescent probe has a strong effect on chromatographic retention behavior. When addressing the binding affinities of the different labeled protein fractions, it was found that native lysozyme was able to displace lysozyme-dye conjugates when the fluorescent label was attached to lysine-33, but not when attached to lysine-97. Finally, it could be shown that when superimposing the single profiles of the three major fractions obtained during a labeling procedure a qualitative picture of the net profile is obtained. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of processing parameters on the morphology, porosity, and crystallinity
of polymeric polyethylene glycol (PEG) microparticles by spray freezing into liquid (SFL), a new particle engineering technology.
Processing parameters investigated were the viscosity and flow rate of the polymer solution, nozzle diameter, spray time,
pressure, temperature, and flow rate of the cryogenic liquid. By varying the processing parameters and feed composition, atomization
and heat transfer mechanisms were modified resulting in particles of different size distribution, shape, morphology, density,
porosity, and crystallinity. Median particle diameter (M50) varied from 25 μm to 600 μm. Particle shape was spherical or elongated
with highly irregular surfaces. Granule density was between 0.5 and 1.5 g/mL. In addition to producing particles of pure polymer,
drug particles were encapsulted in polymeric microparticles. The encapsulation efficiency of albuterol sulfate was 96.0% with
a drug loading of 2.4%, indicating that SFL is useful for producing polymeric microparticles for drug delivery applications.
It was determined that the physicochemical characteristics of model polymeric microparticles composed of PEG could be modified
for use as a drug delivery carrier. 相似文献

To transfect cells, cationic polymers as well as cationic liposomes are widely investigated as carriers for both oligonucleotides and plasmid DNA. A major step in the successful intracellular delivery of the DNA is the release from its carrier. In this study, dual color fluorescence fluctuation spectroscopy (dual color FFS) was explored in order to characterize the intracellular dissociation of cationic polymer/oligonucleotide complexes. As a model, rhodamine green-labeled oligonucleotides (RhGr-ONs) were complexed with Cy5-labeled polymers of either high molar mass (Cy5-graft-pDMAEMA, 1700 kDa) or low molar mass [Cy5-poly(l-lysine), Cy5-pLL, 30 kDa]. The FFS results were compared with confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) observations. CLSM proved that Cy5-graft-pDMAEMA/RhGr-ON complexes endocytosed by Vero cells dissociate in the cytoplasm: the polymer was only detected in the cytoplasm whereas the (released) RhGr-ONs accumulated in the nucleus. Transfecting Vero cells with Cy5-pLL/RhGr-ON complexes resulted, however, in colocalization of polymer and oligonucleotides in the nucleus. In the latter case, CLSM was not able to prove whether intact Cy5-pLL/RhGr-ON complexes were present in the nucleus or whether both components were located together in the nucleus without being associated. Dual color FFS, which monitors the movement of (dual labeled) fluorescent molecules, was able to answer this question. As a Cy5-pLL/RhGr-ON complex is multimolecular, i.e., it consists of many RhGr-ONs associated with many Cy5-pLL chains, it is both highly green and red fluorescent. Consequently, when Cy5-pLL/RhGr-ON complexes move through the excitation volume, the (green and red) detectors of the FFS instrument detect simultaneously a strong green and red fluorescence peak. Upon transfecting the Vero cells with Cy5-pLL/RhGr-ON complexes, FFS was indeed able to detect simultaneously green and red fluorescence peaks in the cytoplasm but never in the nucleus. From these results we conclude that the Cy5-pLL and RhGr-ONs present in the nucleus after transfection were not associated. 相似文献

Supercritical fluid technology offers several advantages in preparation of microparticles. These include uniformity in particle size, morphology, and drug distribution without degradation of the product. One of the recent advantages is preparation of porous aerogel carrier with proper aerodynamic properties. In this study, we aimed to prepare chitosan aerogel microparticles using supercritical fluid (SCF) technology and compare that with microparticles produced by freeze drying (FD). Loading the prepared carriers with a model drug (salbutamol) was also performed. Comparisons of the particle properties and physicochemical characterizations were undertaken by evaluating particle size, density, specific surface area, and porosity. In vitro drug release studies were also investigated. The effect of many variables, such as molecular weight of chitosan oligomers, concentrations of chitosan, and concentrations of tripolyphosphate on the release, were also investigated. Chitosan aerogels were efficiently produced by SCF technology with an average particle size of 10 μm with a tapped density values around 0.12 g/mL, specific surface area (73–103) m2/g, and porosity (0.20–0.29) cc/g. Whereas, microparticles produced by FD method were characterized as cryogels with larger particle size (64 microns) with clear cracking at the surface. Sustained release profile was achieved for all prepared microparticles of salbutamol produced by the aforementioned methods as compared with pure drug. The results also demonstrates that chitosan molecular weight, polymer concentration, and tripolyphosphate concentration affected the release profile of salbutamol from the prepared microparticles. In conclusion, SCF technology was able to produce chitosan aerogel microparticles loaded with salbutamol that could be suitable for pulmonary drug delivery system.KEY WORDS: aerodynamic, aerogels, chitosan, salbutamol, supercritical fluid technology 相似文献

A mixed-phase immunoassay based on simultaneous binding of an antibody to its fluorescently tagged peptide epitope and a PNA conjugate of the same peptide has been developed. As a fluorescent marker, a europium(III) chelate allowing time-resolved measurement from a single particle has been employed. The ternary complex formed in solution is immobilized by Watson-Crick base-pairing to a microparticle bearing a PNA sequence complementary to that present in the complex. The concentration of the antibody in the sample may then be determined by a single particle measurement. Accordingly, different antibodies may in principle be addressed by sequence-specific hybridization to different categorized microparticles. 相似文献

Formation of inhalable microparticles containing rifampicin and poly(l-lactide) (L-PLA) by using supercritical anti-solvent process (SAS) was investigated. The solutions of drug and polymer in
methylene chloride were sprayed into supercritical carbon dioxide. The effect of polymer content and operating conditions,
temperature, pressure, carbon dioxide molar fraction, and concentration of solution, on product characteristics were studied.
The prepared microparticles were characterized with respect to their morphology, particle size and size distribution, drug
content, drug loading efficiency, and drug release characteristic. Discrete, spherical microparticles were obtained at high
polymer:drug ratios of 7:3, 8:2, and 9:1. The shape of L-PLA microparticles became more irregular and agglomerated with decreasing
polymer content. Microparticles with polymer content higher than 60% exhibited volumetric mean diameter less than 5 μm, but
percent drug loading efficiency was relatively low. Drug-loaded microparticles containing 70% and 80% L-PLA showed a sustainable
drug release property without initial burst release. Operating temperature level influenced on mean size and size distribution
of microparticles. The operating pressure and carbon dioxide molar fraction in the range investigated were unlikely to have
an effect on microparticle formation. An increasing concentration of feed solution provided larger size microparticles. Rifampicin-loaded
L-PLA microparticles could be produced by SAS in a size range suitable for dry powder inhaler formulation. 相似文献

Microarray technology has brought a paradigmatic change in bioanalytics. However, highly sensitive and accurate assays are still needed for a real breakthrough. We present a simple and generic approach for fluorescent signal amplification with fluorescent microparticle labels. The assay principle was demonstrated using a reverse array model consisting of spots of bovine serum albumin with a small fraction of the proteins biotinylated. Specific binding of streptavidin coated fluorescent microparticles to the spots was promoted by applying a controlled continuous microparticle flow. The surface bound beads were visualized and quantified with confocal microscopy images. Comparison with standard fluorescent and flow discrimination assays has revealed several advantages of our approach. First, non-specific particle binding could be reduced to less than 1 particle/spot making therefore the visualization of single biomolecular bonds possible. Second, the amplification scheme presented here is generic and can be applied to any fluorescent microarray. Furthermore, this assay makes use of a biotin-streptavidin linkage and can therefore be applied to all kind of assays. Finally, single fluorescent microbeads can be easily visualized with standard optical equipments, so that no high performance equipment is required. 相似文献

The supercritical assisted atomization (SAA) was proposed as a new technique to produce composite microparticles for drug controlled release. Ampicillin trihydrate and chitosan were selected as model drug and carrier, respectively, and 1% v/v acetic acid aqueous solution was used as solvent. The effect of the polymer/drug ratio on particle morphology and drug release rate was evaluated. SEM analysis indicated that non-coalescing spherical microparticles formed by chitosan/ampicillin were produced by SAA. All coprecipitates produced have a sharp particle distribution, with diameters ranging between about 0.1 and 6 microm. SAA composite microparticles were characterized by X-ray, DSC, EDX and UV-vis analysis. A solid solution of the chitosan and ampicillin was produced and a stabilizing effect of the polymer on the drug has resulted that protects ampicillin from thermal degradation. A prolonged release from SAA coprecipitates with respect to raw drug and physical mixtures of chitosan and ampicillin was obtained; moreover, the polymer/drug ratio has revealed to be a controlling parameter for drug release. Drug release mechanisms characteristic of swelling-controlled systems were observed, with ampicillin release depending on both relaxation and diffusive mechanisms. An empirical binomial equation was used to describe experimental data, showing a fair good agreement with ampicillin release data if both the relaxational and the diffusional parameters are function of the polymer/drug ratio. 相似文献

Understanding the architecture of mammalian brain at single-cell resolution is one of the key issues of neuroscience. However, mapping neuronal soma and projections throughout the whole brain is still challenging for imaging and data management technologies. Indeed, macroscopic volumes need to be reconstructed with high resolution and contrast in a reasonable time, producing datasets in the TeraByte range. We recently demonstrated an optical method (confocal light sheet microscopy, CLSM) capable of obtaining micron-scale reconstruction of entire mouse brains labeled with enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP). Combining light sheet illumination and confocal detection, CLSM allows deep imaging inside macroscopic cleared specimens with high contrast and speed. Here we describe the complete experimental pipeline to obtain comprehensive and human-readable images of entire mouse brains labeled with fluorescent proteins. The clearing and the mounting procedures are described, together with the steps to perform an optical tomography on its whole volume by acquiring many parallel adjacent stacks. We showed the usage of open-source custom-made software tools enabling stitching of the multiple stacks and multi-resolution data navigation. Finally, we illustrated some example of brain maps: the cerebellum from an L7-GFP transgenic mouse, in which all Purkinje cells are selectively labeled, and the whole brain from a thy1-GFP-M mouse, characterized by a random sparse neuronal labeling. 相似文献

Several approaches have been used to study the determinants of phagosome-lysosome fusion in intact mouse macrophages. Lysosomes were labeled with the fluorescent vital dye acridine orange and the rate and extent of their fusion with yeast-containing phagosomes was monitored by fluorescence microscopy. Fusion was also assayed by electron microscopy, using horseradish peroxidase or thorium dioxide as a marker for secondary lysosomes. Good agreemen samples with an enzymatic marker, and thorium dioxide-labeled samples evaluated by stereology. The rate of usion as assayed by fluorescence was not affected by the number of particles ingested, serum concentration, or prior uptake of digestible or nondigestible substances. With this assay it was possible to observe the rate of fusion separate from and uninfluenced by the phagocytic rate. Both the rate and extent of fusion were dramatically increased after several days in culture and similar changes were found by use of the EM assays. Fusion was strongly affected by incubation temperature, having a Q10 of 2.5 No detectable fusion occurred below 15 degrees C, and this inhibition was rapidly reversed when cells were returned to 37 degrees C. 相似文献

We report on far-field fluorescence imaging of single molecules in spherical polymer microparticles produced from solution by using microdroplet techniques. The fluorescence photobleaching quantum yields of rhodamine 6G in a common water-soluble polymer (polyvinyl alcohol) are at least five times smaller, corresponding to proportionally larger average fluorescence signals, than those in ethanolic solvents. This allows for acquisition of multiple images from a single molecule on a time scale of several minutes. We also show that fluorescent images of single molecules in microspheres can be calculated from semiclassic electrodynamics, which may ultimately be useful in retrieving dynamical information from experimental images. 相似文献

A study was conducted to rapidly fractionate bovine spermatozoa on the basis of cell-surface H-Y antigen (i.e., Y chromosome-bearing spermatozoa). A novel, rapid immunomagnetic method was developed for removal of spermatozoa that bound to anti-H-Y IgG. Fluorescent labeling and flow cytometry were used to measure the efficiency with which spermatozoa binding to anti-H-Y were removed by the immunomagnetic technique. Washed bovine spermatozoa (n=7 bulls) were treated with a mouse monoclonal IgG antibody to H-Y antigen (MoAb 12/49). Fluorescent labeled goat antibody against mouse IgG was added to label those spermatozoa with cell-surface H-Y antigens. Supermagnetized polymer beads coated with an anti-antibody to the MoAb 12/49 were then added to the spermatozoa. After 20 min of incubation, spermatozoa were exposed for 2 min to a magnet, causing the magnetized particles to adhere to the sides of the tube. Nonmagnetized spermatozoa in the supernatent were aspirated and analyzed for fluorescent label by flow cytometry. Approximately 50% of spermatozoa not subjected to immunomagnetic separation were fluorescent labeled, and about one-half of the spermatozoa were observed microscopically to be bound to the magnetized polymer beads prior to magnetic separation (P<0.05). Following magnetic separation, only 1.2% (P<0.05) of the spermatozoa in the magnetic supernatent were fluorescent labeled. Assuming that only Y chromosome-bearing spermatozoa have cell-surface H-Y antigens, the present immunomagnetic fractionation removed almost all of the Y chromosome-bearing spermatozoa, leaving a population that was greater than 98% X chromosome-bearing spermatozoa. 相似文献

The formation of intricate and functional biological structures depends on the dynamic changes of cellular morphology. Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) is a widely used method to reveal the three-dimensional (3-D) structure of cells during the development of Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) and other model organisms. Improving the efficiency and image quality of CLSM would benefit studies using this method. We found that CED-10::GFP::CED-10, a green fluorescent protein (GFP) marker, is intensely expressed beneath the cell surface, facilitating visualization of cellular morphology in C. elegans embryos. By combining the unique properties of this marker, and with the help of direct 3-D rendering of images obtained by CLSM, we developed a simple but powerful method for investigating cellular morphology in developing embryos. Using this method we, for the first time, document the dynamic changes in the morphology of ventral neuroblasts in vivo during ventral cleft closure. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the nature of film formation on tablets with different compositions, using confocal
laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), and to measure film adhesion via the application of a novel “magnet probe test”. Three excipients,
microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), spray-dried lactose monohydrate, and dibasic calcium phosphate dihydrate, were individually
blended with 0.5% magnesium stearate, as a lubricant, and 2.5% tetracycline HCl, as a fluorescent marker, and were compressed
using a Carver press. Tablets were coated with a solution consisting of 7% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) phthalate
(HP-55), and 0.5% cetyl alcohl in acetone and isopropanol (11:9). The nature of polymer interaction with the tablets and coating
was evaluated using CLSM and a designed magnet probe test. CLSM images clearly showed coating efficiency, thickness, and uniformity
of film formation, and the extent of drug migration into the film at the coating interfaces of tablets. Among the excipients,
MCC demonstrated the best interface for both film formation and uniformity in thickness relative to lactose monohydrate and
dibasic calcium phosphate dihydrate. The detachment force of the coating layers from the tablet surfaces, as measured with
the developed magnet probe test, was in the order of MCC>lactose monohydrate>dibasic calcium phosphate dihydrate. It was also
shown that the designed magnet probe test provides reliable and reproducible results when used for measurement of film adhesion
and bonding strength. 相似文献

Cellular resolution expression profiling using confocal detection of NBT/BCIP precipitate by reflection microscopy 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The determination of gene expression patterns in three dimensions with cellular resolution is an important goal in developmental biology. However the most sensitive, efficient, and widely used staining technique for whole-mount in situ hybridization (WMISH), nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT)/5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate (BCIP) precipitation by alkaline phosphatase, could not yet be combined with the most precise, high-resolution detection technique, confocal laser-scanning microscopy (CLSM). Here we report the efficient visualization of the NBT/BCIP precipitate using confocal reflection microscopy for WMISH samples of Drosophila, zebrafish, and the marine annelid worm, Platynereis dumerilii. In our simple WMISH protocol for reflection CLSM, NBT/BCIP staining can be combined with fluorescent WMISH, immunostainings, or transgenic green fluorescent protein (GFP) marker lines, allowing double labeling of cell types or of embryological structures of interest. Whole-mount reflection CLSM will thus greatly facilitate large-scale cellular resolution expression profiling in vertebrate and invertebrate model organisms. 相似文献

Mass transport of drug delivery vehicles is guided by particle properties, such as size, shape, composition, and surface chemistry, as well as biomolecules and serum proteins that adsorb to the particle surface. In an attempt to identify serum proteins influencing cellular associations and biodistribution of intravascularly injected particles, we used two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry to identify proteins eluted from the surface of cationic and anionic silicon microparticles. Cationic microparticles displayed a 25-fold greater abundance of Ig light variable chain, fibrinogen, and complement component 1 compared to their anionic counterparts. Anionic microparticles were found to accumulate in equal abundance in murine liver and spleen, whereas cationic microparticles showed preferential accumulation in the spleen. Immunohistochemistry supported macrophage uptake of both anionic and cationic microparticles in the liver, as well as evidence of association of cationic microparticles with hepatic endothelial cells. Furthermore, scanning electron micrographs supported cellular competition for cationic microparticles by endothelial cells and macrophages. Despite high macrophage content in the lungs and tumor, microparticle uptake by these cells was minimal, supporting differences in the repertoire of surface receptors expressed by tissue-specific macrophages. In summary, particle surface chemistry drives selective binding of serum components impacting cellular interactions and biodistribution. 相似文献

This paper describes the process by which the cell wall of Proteus mirabilis, as measured by the presence of the O antigen, develops during the differentiation of swarmers from short cells on an agar surface. The sequence was followed by fluorescent-antibody staining, with both the direct and reverse methods. When the organisms were labeled with fluorescent antibody by the direct method, they showed a progressive diminution of the marker along the cell surface and some increase in the length of the bacteria. However, the label had become completely diluted out before typical swarmers developed. When the bacteria were exposed initially to unlabeled antibody by the reverse technique, and then incubated with fluorescent antibody, they showed a progressive increase both in the intensity of the label along their entire periphery and in cellular length, culminating in the formation of swarmers. It is concluded that in P. mirabilis, as in the few other gram-negative bacteria examined so far, cell wall synthesis takes place diffusely, i.e., by intercalation of new with old components along the length of the cell wall. 相似文献

Fluorescent tagging of viral particles by genetic means enables the study of virus dynamics in living cells. However, the study of beta-herpesvirus entry and morphogenesis by this method is currently limited. This is due to the lack of replication competent, capsid-tagged fluorescent viruses. Here, we report on viable recombinant MCMVs carrying ectopic insertions of the small capsid protein (SCP) fused to fluorescent proteins (FPs). The FPs were inserted into an internal position which allowed the production of viable, fluorescently labeled cytomegaloviruses, which replicated with wild type kinetics in cell culture. Fluorescent particles were readily detectable by several methods. Moreover, in a spread assay, labeled capsids accumulated around the nucleus of the newly infected cells without any detectable viral gene expression suggesting normal entry and particle trafficking. These recombinants were used to record particle dynamics by live-cell microscopy during MCMV egress with high spatial as well as temporal resolution. From the resulting tracks we obtained not only mean track velocities but also their mean square displacements and diffusion coefficients. With this key information, we were able to describe particle behavior at high detail and discriminate between particle tracks exhibiting directed movement and tracks in which particles exhibited free or anomalous diffusion. 相似文献

Microparticles of naproxen with Eudragit L100 and Aerosil were prepared by the emulsion solvent diffusion method in order
to avoid local gastrointestinal irritation, one of the major side effects of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs after oral
ingestion. The process of preparation involved the use of ethanol as good solvent, dichloromethane as a bridging liquid, water
as poor solvent, Aerosil as anti-adhesion agent, and sodium dodecyl sulfate to aid in the dispersion of the drug and excipients
into the poor solvent. The obtained microparticles were evaluated for micromeritic properties, yield, encapsulation efficiency,
drug physical state, and drug release properties. The influence of formulation factors and preparation condition (polymer/naproxen
ratio, Aerosil/polymer ratio, and the initial difference of temperature between the solvent and nonsolvent) on the properties
of the microparticles were also examined. The resultant microparticles were finely spherical and uniform with high incorporation
efficiency (>79%) and yield (>71%). The incorporation efficiency was enhanced with increasing the ratio of excipients to drug
and the initial difference of temperature between the solvent and nonsolvent. The mean diameter of the microparticles was
influenced by all of the manufacturing parameters. Studies carried out to characterize the micromeritic properties of formulations,
such as flowability and packability, showed that microparticles were suitable for further pharmaceutical manipulation (e.g.,
capsule filling). Drug release studies of the microparticles confirmed the gastroresistance, and mathematical studies showed
that the drug released followed a Hixon and Crowell kinetic. These microparticles represent a simple method for the preparation
of drug-loaded enteric microparticles with desired micromeritic properties and gastroresistance release. 相似文献
