    Characterization of Water Solubility and Binding of Spin Labeled Drugs in the Presence of Albumin Nanoparticles and Proteins by Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
    (Wiley-Blackwell, 2022) Sözer, Sümeyra Çiğdem; Akdoğan, Yaşar
    Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy is an advantageous technique to monitor solubility of drugs in an aqueous solution. In the presence of a drug carrier, the bound and unbound drug fractions can be determined in the same sample simultaneously. To enhance the solubility of hydrophobic drugs, a transporter protein of bovine serum albumin (BSA) can be used directly or in the form of nanoparticle. Moreover, a cationic BSA can be used to enhance anionic drug loading. Here, drugs with different water solubility, salicylic acid (high), ibuprofen (low) and chlorambucil (none) were spin labeled and studied with EPR spectroscopy. Remarkably, it has been shown that albumin nanoparticles are much more effective than albumin proteins in dissolving hydrophobic drugs in water. Furthermore, different drug loading methods were compared, and different from other techniques drug release can be monitored directly from the NPs pellet dissolution by EPR spectroscopy.

    Determination of Force-Free Wet Adhesion of Mussel-Inspired Polymers To Spin Labeled Surface
    (Elsevier, 2017) Kırpat, İklima; Göksel, Yaman; Karakuş, Erman; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa; Akdoğan, Yaşar
    Hydration repulsive forces oppose the adhesive interactions, especially in the force-free conditions. Here, we studied spontaneous wet adhesion of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) functionalized poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) polymers inspired by marine mussels. Using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, we can monitor spontaneous adhesion of DOPA containing polymer to suspended spin labeled hydrophobic polystyrene nanobeads at molecular level. The surface coverage up to 82% is obtained from EPR measurements. However, in the force-free condition, EPR measurements do not show any detectable DOPA based adhesion to hydrophilic silica nanobead.
