Configurational biomimetic imprinting for protein recognition / Nicole M. Bergmann in Industrial & engineering chemistry research, Vol. 47 N° 23 (Décembre 2008) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Industrial & engineering chemistry research > Vol. 47 N° 23 (Décembre 2008) . - p. 9099–9107 Titre : Configurational biomimetic imprinting for protein recognition : structural characteristics of recognitive hydrogels Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Nicole M. Bergmann, Auteur ; Nicholas A. Peppas, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p. 9099–9107 Note générale : Chemistry engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Biomimetic  Hydrogels  Structural  Characteristics  of  Recognitive Résumé : Using a configurational biomimetic imprinting technique, we prepared a family of molecularly imprinting polyacrylamide polymers with recognition for the template protein chicken egg white lysozyme in aqueous solution. We showed the formation of a network with specific recognitive sites for the template. To determine the overall macroscopic properties of protein-imprinted gel, we utilized a variety of tools. When gels were examined using scanning electron microscopy, definite morphological differences were observed between the CBIP polymers and the controls. Additionally, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy determined that the presence of template had no effect upon the overall gel composition, whereas differential scanning calorimetry showed no significant change in the molecular weight between cross-links between CBIP polymers and nonimprinted polymers. Using these results, a theory of gel formation was proposed to try to elucidate gel formation in the presence of a macromolecule.

Effectiveness of intravenous infusion algorithms for glucose control in diabetic patients using different simulation models / Terry G. Farmer Jr. in Industrial & engineering chemistry research, Vol. 48 N° 9 (Mai 2009) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Industrial & engineering chemistry research > Vol. 48 N° 9 (Mai 2009) . - pp. 4402–4414 Titre : Effectiveness of intravenous infusion algorithms for glucose control in diabetic patients using different simulation models Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Terry G. Farmer Jr., Auteur ; Thomas F. Edgar, Auteur ; Nicholas A. Peppas, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : pp. 4402–4414 Note générale : Chemical engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Insulin  infusion  algorithms  Glucose  dynamics  Diabetes  patient  Proportional  integral  derivative  control Résumé : The effectiveness of closed-loop insulin infusion algorithms is assessed for three different mathematical models describing insulin and glucose dynamics within a type I diabetes patient. Simulations are performed to assess the effectiveness of proportional plus integral plus derivative (PID) control, feedforward control, and a physiologically based control system with respect to maintaining normal glucose levels during a meal and during exercise. Control effectiveness is assessed by comparing the simulated response to a simulation of a healthy patient during both a meal and exercise and establishing maximum and minimum glucose levels and insulin infusion levels, as well as maximum duration of hyperglycemia. Controller effectiveness is assessed within the minimal model, the Sorensen model, and the Hovorka model. Results showed that no type of control was able to maintain normal conditions when simulations were performed using the minimal model. For both the Sorensen model and the Hovorka model, proportional control was sufficient to maintain normal glucose levels. Given published clinical data showing the ineffectiveness of PID control in patients, the work demonstrates that controller success based on simulation results can be misleading, and that future work should focus on addressing the model discrepancies.

In Vivo Simulations of the Intravenous Dynamics of Submicrometer Particles of pH-Responsive Cationic Hydrogels in Diabetic Patients / Terry G. Farmer Jr. ; Thomas F. Edgar ; Nicholas A. Peppas in Industrial & engineering chemistry research, Vol. 47 n°24 (Décembre 2008) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Industrial & engineering chemistry research > Vol. 47 n°24 (Décembre 2008) . - p. 10053–10063 Titre : In Vivo Simulations of the Intravenous Dynamics of Submicrometer Particles of pH-Responsive Cationic Hydrogels in Diabetic Patients Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Terry G. Farmer Jr., Auteur ; Thomas F. Edgar, Auteur ; Nicholas A. Peppas, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p. 10053–10063 Note générale : Industrial chemistry Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Dynamics  Submicrometer  Simulations Résumé : A mathematical model describing glucose-dependent pH swelling and insulin release is developed for pH-sensitive cationic hydrogels in which glucose oxidase and catalase have been immobilized and insulin imbibed. Glucose-based swelling and insulin release are simulated for intravenously injected particles at various design conditions. The effects of particle size, the number of injected particles, insulin loading, enzyme loading, monomer functional group loading and pKa, and hydrogel cross-linking ratio on insulin release and glucose sensitivity are investigated to optimally design the device for use. Increased insulin infusion is shown to result from increasing the number of circulating gels, increasing the collapsed particle size, or decreasing the cross-linking ratio of the system. Release duration is shown to be dependent only upon the particle size and the achievable diffusion coefficient of the system. Glucose sensitivity, as measured by gluconic acid production and by the system pH, is a function of glucose oxidase loading and the concentration and pKa of the monomer used in the hydrogel. The necessary submicrometer particle size results in very rapid device insulin depletion. When the device is designed without considering constraints, the resulting release profile resembles that of an on/off switching mechanism. Future work will focus on simulations of swelling and release when the device is implanted in an alternative administration site.

Protein imprinting by means of Aaginate - based polymer microcapsules / Edgar P. Herrero in Industrial & engineering chemistry research, Vol. 49 N° 20 (Octobre 2010) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Industrial & engineering chemistry research > Vol. 49 N° 20 (Octobre 2010) . - pp. 9811-9814 Titre : Protein imprinting by means of Aaginate - based polymer microcapsules Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Edgar P. Herrero, Auteur ; Eva M. Martín Del Valle, Auteur ; Nicholas A. Peppas, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : pp. 9811-9814 Note générale : Chimie industrielle Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Microcapsule Résumé : Molecular imprinting is a promising technology that, although successfully used to recognize small molecules, has had many difficulties in recognizing macromolecules such as peptides and proteins. The current technologies used to achieve the macromolecular imprinting are incompatible with diagnosis and recognition in many life sciences applications such as medical devices, food additives, or drug delivery systems that require biocompatible products. We present here a new, biocompatible technology of protein imprinting by means of calcium alginate-based polymer capsules using ionic gelation and without toxic chemicals other than sodium alginate and calcium chloride. These molecular imprinting capsules are capable of recognizing higher quantities of protein than the existing technologies developed until now, with a simple formulation.
