In wastewater treatment, the removal of heavy metals is difficult due to the limited affinity of heavy metal ions to ion exchange resins. Here imprinting polymerization is used to develop resins with high capacity and selectivity for heavy metal ions for water treatment. A random copolymer of methacrylate and methacrylamide was found to be most effective for the removal of hydrophilic metal complexes, like CdCl2, ZnCl2, and the metalloid NaH2AsO4, particularly when the porosity of these resins is increased. For hydrophobic complexes imprinting emulsion polymerization was developed and data for the effective removal of mercury dithizonate will be described. Complete removal for up to 80 ppm of cadmium and mercury with only 200 mg of imprinted resin was obtained; competition and co-imprinting experiments are described as well.

Abstract The nitrate electrode has been utilized in the determination of nitrate content in food products. The AOAC xylenol method was employed for comparative results. A reasonable correlation (r = 0.91) was found between the 2 methods in the analysis of 49 samples containing 30–350 ppm nitrate. At the average nitrate content (100 ppm) of these foods, the standard error was 4.3 ppm. The electrode responds directly to the ionic activity of the nitrate ion. It has a linear concentration range of 1–6000 ppm nitrate and can be used over a wide pH range. The electrode does respond to some extent to anions other than nitrate, and some interferences do occur. These interferences are easily controlled by the use of cation exchange resins. The Corning known addition (spiking) method is used on all samples to insure correct electrode response in solutions containing variable background ionic composition. The electrode has the advantage of simplicity, speed, reproducibility, and accuracy. Work time saved using the electrode as opposed to the xylenol method is about 7 hr for the analysis of 20 samples. Error, and the need for repeating analysis, is much less frequent.

Iron is an essential element for the growth and survival of nearly all living organisms. However, it is difficult for most organisms to get enough iron from the environment, because of the extremely low solubility of ferric ion. One of the strategies for iron acquisition is to use the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transport system. In Gram-negative bacteria, a typical iron uptake ABC transporter consists of a ferric ion-binding protein (Fbp) located in periplasm (FbpA), two transmembrane proteins that form a pathway for ferric ions (FbpB), and two peripheral ATP-binding proteins located at the cytoplasm side of the inner membrane (FbpC). TtFbpA is a ferric ion-binding protein of a putative iron uptake ABC transporter from Thermus thermophilus HB8. Here we report the crystal structures of the apo-form and ferric ion-bound form of TtFbpA at 1.8-Å and 1.7-Å resolutions, respectively [1]. The crystal structure of the ferric ion-bound TtFbpA shows that a ferric ion binds to a specific site of TtFbpA to form a six-coordinated complex by three tyrosine residues, two bicarbonates and a water molecule, revealing a novel mode of coordination to a ferric ion. Another crystal structure of ferric ion-bound TtFbpA reported earlier showed the bound ferric ion is five-coordinated by three tyrosine residues and a carbonate bound in the bidentate manner [2]. The different modes of the coordination would probably result from the different pHs used for crystallization: pH 5.5 (six-coordinated) vs. pH 7.5 (five-coordinated). The Gram negative bacterium T. thermophilus HB8 can live in a wide pH range of 3.4–9.6. We propose that TtFbpA, a periplasmic protein of T. thermophilus HB8, can act as a ferric ion-binding protein over the wide pH range by taking at least two different coordination manners to a ferric ion depending on pH. This is the first example of a periplasmic ferric iron-binding protein that can coordinate a ferric ion via multiple types of coordination complex formation.

The renewable, proteinaceous, marine biopolymer spongin is yet the focus of modern research. The preparation of a magnetic three-dimensional (3D) spongin scaffold with nano-sized Fe3O4 cores is reported here for the first time. The formation of this magnetic spongin–Fe3O4 composite was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential thermal analysis (DTA) (TGA-DTA), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and zeta potential analyses. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) confirmed the formation of well-dispersed spherical nanoparticles tightly bound to the spongin scaffold. The magnetic spongin–Fe3O4 composite showed significant removal efficiency for two cationic dyes (i.e., crystal violet (CV) and methylene blue (MB)). Adsorption experiments revealed that the prepared material is a fast, high-capacity (77 mg/g), yet selective adsorbent for MB. This behavior was attributed to the creation of strong electrostatic interactions between the spongin–Fe3O4 and MB or CV, which was reflected by adsorption mechanism evaluations. The adsorption of MB and CV was found to be a function of pH, with maximum removal performance being observed over a wide pH range (pH = 5.5–11). In this work, we combined Fe3O4 nanoparticles and spongin scaffold properties into one unique composite, named magnetic spongin scaffold, in our attempt to create a sustainable absorbent for organic wastewater treatment. The appropriative mechanism of adsorption of the cationic dyes on a magnetic 3D spongin scaffold is proposed. Removal of organic dyes and other contaminants is essential to ensure healthy water and prevent various diseases. On the other hand, in many cases, dyes are used as models to demonstrate the adsorption properties of nanostructures. Due to the good absorption properties of magnetic spongin, it can be proposed as a green and uncomplicated adsorbent for the removal of different organic contaminants and, furthermore, as a carrier in drug delivery applications.

In this work, an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) sensor for the detection of Fe3+ ions was fabricated through the electrostatic interaction between 1,1,2-triphenyl-2-[4-(3-sulfonatopropoxyl)-phenyl]-ethene sodium salt (SPOTPE) and quaternized cellulose (QC). The structure and properties of the SPOTPE/QC nanocomplex were studied by using 1H NMR, spectrofluorophotometer, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and dynamic laser light scattering (DLS). An aqueous solution of SPOTPE and QC resulted in a remarkably enhanced cyan fluorescence in comparison to that of the SPOTPE solution. Strong through-space electrostatic interaction between SPOTPE and QC is the main cause for the fluorescence emerging. The fluorescence of the SPOTPE/QC solutions show good stability over a wide pH range of 5.0–10.0. When introducing Fe3+ ions into the SPOTPE/QC solution, the fluorescence quenched within 5 s. SPOTPE/QC solutions exhibited high selectivity and sensitivity for the detection of Fe3+ ions with ignored interferences from other ions, and the detection limit was determined to be 2.92 × 10−6 M. The quenching mechanism was confirmed to be the consequence of the binding interactions between Fe3+ ions and SPOTPE/QC complex.

Those samples which swell rapidly when exposed to water are, at best, difficult to section for transmission electron microscopy. Some materials literally burst out of the embedding block with the first pass by the knife, and even the most rapid cutting cycle produces sections of limited value. Many ion exchange resins swell in water; some undergo irreversible structural changes when dried. We developed our embedding procedure to handle this type of sample, but it should be applicable to many materials that present similar sectioning difficulties.The purpose of our embedding procedure is to build up a cross-linking network throughout the sample, while it is in a water swollen state. Our procedure was suggested to us by the work of Rosenberg, where he mentioned the formation of a tridimensional structure by the polymerization of the GMA biproduct, triglycol dimethacrylate.

Oral Drug Delivery Systems

Ion Exchange Resins (IER) are insoluble polymers having styrene divinylbenzene copolymer backbone that contain acidic or basic functional groups and have the ability to exchange counter ions with the surrounding aqueous solutions. From the past many years they have been widely used for purification and softening of water and in chromatographic columns, however recently their use in pharmaceutical industry has gained considerable importance. Due to the physical stability and inert nature of the resins, they can be used as a versatile vehicle to design several modified release dosage forms The ionizable drug is complexed with the resin owing to the property of ion exchange. This resin complex dissociatesin vivo to release the drug. Based on the dissociation strength of the drug from the drug resin complex, various release patterns can be achieved. Many formulation glitches can be circumvented using ion exchange resins such as bitter taste and deliquescence. These resins also aid in enhancing disintegrationand stability of formulation. This review focuses on different types of ion exchange resins, their preparation methods, chemistry, properties, incompatibilities and their application in various oral drug delivery systems as well as highlighting their use as therapeutic agents.
