An on-line multi-residue qualitative and quantitative analysis method for fluoroquinolones and amantadine using an integrated microfluidic chip was developed prior to directly coupling to triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (QQQ-MS). Six parallel channels consisting of sample filtration units and micro solid phase extraction (micro-SPE) columns were present in the specifically designed microfluidic device. Firstly, the impurities in the sample solution were trapped by the micropillars in the filtration units. The solution passed through the micro-SPE units packed with hydrophilic-lipophilic balanced (HLB) particles, and then the two classes of drugs were enriched. After washing, the targets were eluted and immediately electrosprayed for MS analysis. This approach allowed effective filtration, enrichment, elution, and MS detection without the introduction of an additional separation step after SPE. Direct electrospray ionization (ESI)-MS in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode could not only ensure the high sensitivity of quantitative analysis, but also achieved accurate qualitative analysis towards targets using the MRM ratios, reducing the possibility of false positives. Good linear relationships were obtained by the internal standard (IS) method with a linear range of 1-200 ng mL-1 (R2 > 0.992). The mean recoveries of the eight target analytes were from 85.2% to 122% with the relative standard deviation (RSD) ranging from 5.6% to 20.3%. All this demonstrated that the developed microfluidic device could be a useful tool for rapid detection in the field of food safety.Graphene oxide is currently used in peripheral nerve engineering but has certain limitations, such as cytotoxicity and lack of electrical conductivity, both of which are crucial in regulating nerve-associated cell behaviors. In this work, we engineered reduced graphene oxide-GelMA-PCL nanofiber nerve guidance conduits via electrospinning. rGO incorporated into the GelMA/PCL matrix significantly enhanced the electrical conductivity and biocompatibility of the hybrid materials. In addition, hybrid nanofibers with low concentrations of rGO (0.25 and 0.5 wt%) could significantly improve the proliferation of Schwann cells (RSC96). More importantly, rGO/GelMA/PCL hybrid nanofibers could activate the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related gene expression of Schwann cells (RSC96). From the in vivo study, it was observed that rGO/GelMA/PCL nerve guidance conduits could promote both sensory/motor nerve regeneration and functional recovery in rats. Our composite strategy of combining rGO within a biocompatible nanofiber scaffold is simple but effective in improving tissue engineering outcomes. The rGO/GelMA/PCL hybrid nanofibers have great potential in peripheral nerve tissue engineering. They will also provide an experimental basis for the development of further electrical stimulation in peripheral nerve regeneration.Targeted delivery of chemotherapeutics to cancer cells has the potential to yield high drug concentrations in cancer cells while minimizing any unwanted side effects. However, the development of multidrug resistance in cancer cells may impede the accumulation of chemotherapy drugs within these, decreasing its therapeutic efficacy. Downregulation of multidrug resistance-related proteins such as MRP1 with small interfering RNA (siRNA) is a promising approach in the reversal of drug resistance. The co-delivery of doxorubicin (Dox) and siRNA against MRP1 (siMRP1) by using nanoparticles comprised of biocompatible porous silicon (pSi) presents itself as a novel opportunity to utilize the biomaterial's high loading capacity and large accessible surface area. Additionally, to increase the selectivity and retention of the delivery vehicle at the tumor site, nanobodies were incorporated onto the nanoparticle surface via a polyethylene glycol (PEG) linker directed towards either the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) or the prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA). The nanobody-displaying pSi nanoparticles (pSiNPs) demonstrated effective gene silencing, inhibiting MRP1 expression by 74 ± 6% and 74 ± 4% when incubated with EGFR-pSiNPs and PSMA-pSiNPs, respectively, in prostate cancer cells. The downregulation of MRP1 led to a further increase in cytotoxicity when both siRNA and Dox were delivered in conjunction in both cancer cell monocultures and spheroids when compared to free Dox or Dox and a scrambled sequence of siRNA. Altogether, nanobody-displaying pSiNPs are an effective carrier for the dual delivery of both siRNA and Dox for cancer treatment.Electrospun nanofiber (EN) technology has been used in the past to generate electrostatically charged multilayer-nanofibers. This platform offers versatile applications including in tissue engineering, drug delivery, wound dressings, and high-efficiency particulate air filters. In this study, we synthesized for the first time nanonet-nanofiber electrospun meshes (NNEMs) of polycaprolactone (PCL)-chitosan (CH) using EN technology. The fabricated NNEMs were utilized for high payload delivery and controlled release of a water-soluble drug. Diclofenac Sodium (DS), a hydrophilic anti-inflammatory drug, was selected as a model drug because of its high aqueous solubility and poor compatibility with insoluble polymers. Various compositions of DS drug-loaded NNEMs (DS-NNEMs) were synthesized. The physicochemical properties such as structure, morphology, and aqueous stability and the chemical properties of DS-NNEMs were evaluated. High drug entrapment efficiency and concentration-dependent drug release patterns were investigated for up to 14 days. Furthermore, the biocompatibility of the DS-NNEMs was tested with NIH 3T3 cells. The physicochemical characterization results showed that the DS drug is a key contributing factor in the generation of nanonet-nanofiber networks during electrospinning. DS-NNEMs also enhanced 3T3 cell adhesion, viability, and proliferation in the nanonet-nano fiber network through the controlled release of DS. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/OSI027.html The presented EN technology-based biodegradable NNEM material is not only limited for the controlled release of hydrophilic anti-inflammatory drugs, but also can be a suitable platform for loading and release of antiviral drugs.
