Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Roadmap on Multifunctional Materials for Drug Delivery(IOP Publishing, 2024) Nottelet, Benjamin; Buwalda, Sytze; van Nostrum, Cornelus F.; Zhao, Xiaofei; Deng, Chao; Zhong, Zhiyuan; Cheah, Ernest; Kehr, Nermin SedaThis Roadmap on drug delivery aims to cover some of the most recent advances in the field of materials for drug delivery systems (DDSs) and emphasizes the role that multifunctional materials play in advancing the performance of modern DDSs in the context of the most current challenges presented. The Roadmap is comprised of multiple sections, each of which introduces the status of the field, the current and future challenges faced, and a perspective of the required advances necessary for biomaterial science to tackle these challenges. It is our hope that this collective vision will contribute to the initiation of conversation and collaboration across all areas of multifunctional materials for DDSs. We stress that this article is not meant to be a fully comprehensive review but rather an up-to-date snapshot of different areas of research, with a minimal number of references that focus upon the very latest research developments.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 8Development of a New Electrochemical Sensor Based on Molecularly Imprinted Biopolymer for Determination of 4,4'-methylene Diphenyl Diamine(MDPI, 2023) Ghaani, Masoud; Büyüktaş, Duygu; Carullo, Daniele; Farris, StefanoA new molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor was proposed to determine 4,4' methylene diphenyl diamine (MDA) using molecularly imprinted polymer-multiwalled carbon nanotubes modified glassy carbon electrode (MIP/MWCNTs/GCE). GCE was coated by MWCNTs (MWCNTs/GCE) because of their antifouling qualities and in order to improve the sensor sensitivity. To make the whole sensor, a polymeric film made up of chitosan nanoparticles was electrodeposited by the cyclic voltammetry method on the surface of MWCNTs/GCE in the presence of MDA as a template. Different parameters such as scan cycles, elution time, incubation time, molar ratio of template molecules to functional monomers, and pH were optimized to increase the performance of the MIP sensor. With a detection limit of 15 nM, a linear response to MDA was seen in the concentration range of 0.5-100 mu M. The imprinting factor (IF) of the proposed sensor was also calculated at around 3.66, demonstrating the extremely high recognition performance of a MIP/MWCNT-modified electrode. Moreover, the sensor exhibited good reproducibility and selectivity. Finally, the proposed sensor was efficiently used to determine MDA in real samples with satisfactory recoveries ranging from 94.10% to 106.76%.Article Citation - WoS: 23Citation - Scopus: 27Novel Poss Reinforced Chitosan Composite Membranes for Guided Bone Tissue Regeneration(Springer Verlag, 2018) Tamburacı, Sedef; Tıhmınlıoğlu, FundaIn this study, novel composites membranes composed of chitosan matrix and polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) were fabricated by solvent casting method. The effect of POSS loading on the mechanical, morphological, chemical, thermal and surface properties, and cytocompatibility of composite membranes were investigated and observed by tensile test, atomic force microscopy (AFM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), protein adsorption assay, air/water contact angle analysis and WST-1 respectively. Swelling studies were also performed by water absorption capacity determination. Results showed that incorporation of Octa-TMA POSS® nanofiller to the chitosan matrix increased the surface roughness, protein adsorption and swelling capacity of membranes. The addition of POSS enhanced significantly the ultimate tensile strength and strain at break of the composite membranes up to 3 wt% POSS loaded samples. An increase of about 76% in tensile strength and of strain at break 1.28% was achieved for 3 wt% POSS loaded nanocomposite membranes compared with chitosan membranes. The presence of POSS filler into polymer matrix increased the plasma protein adsorption on the surface. Maximum protein capacity and swelling was obtained for 10 wt% loaded samples. High cell viability results were obtained with indirect extraction of chitosan/POSS composites. Besides, cell proliferation and ALP activity results showed that POSS incorporation significantly increased the ALP activity of Saos-2 cells cultured on chitosan membranes. This novel composite membranes with tunable properties could be considered as a potential candidate for guided bone regeneration applicationsArticle Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 14Polythiophene Derivative on Quartz Resonators for Mirna Capture and Assay(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015) Palaniappan, Al.; Cheema, Jamal Ahmed; Rajwar, Deepa; Ammanath, Gopal; Xiaohu, Liu; Seng Koon, Lim; Yi, Wang; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Liedberg, BoA novel approach for miRNA assay using a cationic polythiophene derivative, poly[3-(3′-N,N,N-triethylamino-1′-propyloxy)-4-methyl-2,5-thiophene hydrobromide] (PT), immobilized on a quartz resonator is proposed. The cationic PT enables capturing of all RNA sequences in the sample matrix via electrostatic interactions, resulting in the formation of PT-RNA duplex structures on quartz resonators. Biotinylated peptide nucleic acid (b-PNA) sequences are subsequently utilized for the RNA assay, upon monitoring the PT-RNA-b-PNA triplex formation. Signal amplification is achieved by anchoring avidin coated nanoparticles to b-PNA in order to yield responses at clinically relevant concentration regimes. Unlike conventional nucleic acid assay methodologies that usually quantify a specific sequence of RNA, the proposed approach enables the assay of any RNA sequence in the sample matrix upon hybridization with a PNA sequence complementary to the RNA of interest. As an illustration, successful detection of mir21, (a miRNA sequence associated with lung cancer) is demonstrated with a limit of detection of 400 pM. Furthermore, precise quantification of mir21 in plasma samples is demonstrated without requiring PCR and sophisticated instrumentation.Article Citation - WoS: 33Citation - Scopus: 33Folic Acid Modified Clay/Polymer Nanocomposites for Selective Cell Adhesion(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014) Barlas, Fırat Barış; Ağ Şeleci, Didem; Özkan, Melek; Demir, Bilal; Şeleci, Muharrem; Aydın, Muhammed; Taşdelen, M. A.; Zareie, Hadi M.; Timur, Suna; Özçelik, Serdar; Yağcı, YusufA folic acid (FA) modified poly(epsilon-caprolactone)/clay nanocomposite (PCL/MMT-(CH2CH2OH)2-FA) resulting in selective cell adhesion and proliferation was synthesized and characterized as a cell culture and biosensing platform. For this purpose, first the FA modified clay (MMT-(CH2CH2OH)2-FA) was prepared by treating the organo-modified clay, Cloisite 30B [MMT-(CH2CH 2OH)2] with FA in chloroform at 60°C. Subsequent ring opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone in the presence of tin octoate (Sn(Oct)2) using MMT-(CH2CH2OH)2-FA at 110°C resulted in the formation of MMT-(CH2CH 2OH)2-FA with an exfoliated clay structure. The structures of intermediates and the final nanocomposite were investigated in detail by FT-IR spectral analysis and DSC, TGA, XRD, SEM and AFM measurements. The combination of FA, PCL and clay provides a simple and versatile route to surfaces that allows controlled and selective cell adhesion and proliferation. FA receptor-positive HeLa and negative A549 cells were used to prove the selectivity of the modified surfaces. Both microscopy and electrochemical sensing techniques were applied to show the differences in cell adherence on the modified and pristine clay platforms. This approach is expected to be adapted into various bio-applications such as 'cell culture on chip', biosensors and design of tools for targeted diagnosis or therapy.
