In this study the rapid expansion of supercritical solution (RESS) was employed to micronize GF.Carbon dioxide with cosolvent acetone was chosen as a supercritical mixed solvent. The solubility of GF in super-critical CO2 with cosolvent acetone was measured using a dynamic apparatus at pressures between 12 and 32 MPa,temperatures at 313, 323 and 333 K and cosolvent concentration at 1.5, 3.0, 4.5 and 6.0% (by mole). The effect of pre-expansion pressure, extraction temperature, spraying distance, nozzle size and concentration of cosolvent on the precipitated particles was investigated. The results show that the mean particle size of griseofulvin precipitated by RESS was less than 1.2μm. An increase in pre-expansion pressure, extraction temperature, spraying distance and concentration of cosolvent resulted in a decrease in particle size under the operating condition studied. With the decrease of nozzle diameter the particle size reduces. The crystallinity and melting point of the original material and the processed particle by RESS were tested by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).No evident modification in the crystal habit was found under the experimental conditions tested. The morphology of particles precipitated was analyzed bY scanning electron microscopy (SEM).展开更多

In this employed to produce the work, a swirl mixer was micronized curcumin with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) by the supercritical antisolvent process to improve the bioavailability of curcumin. The effects of operating parameters such as curcumin/PVP ratio, feed concentration, temperature, pressure, and CO2 flow rate were investigated. The characterization and solubility of particles were determined by using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy, and ultra-violet-visible spectroscopy. The result shows that the optimal condition for the production of curcumin/PVP particles is at curcumin/PVP ratio of 1:30, feed concentration of 5 mg·mL^-1, temperature of 40 ℃, pressure of 15 MPa, and CO2 flow rate of 15 mL·min^-1. Moreover, the dissolution of curcumin/PVP particles is faster than that of raw curcumin.展开更多

The effects of operational parameters including pressure, temperature, solution concentration, and ratio of flow rate (CO2/solution, r) on particle size (PS), yield, and morphology were investigated. The results showed that microparticles of β-sitosterol (less than 1000 nm size and larger than 70% yield) could be obtained at 10-15 MPa, 35 50℃, 15 mg·ml^-1, 10/1(r); β-sitosterol particles were found to occur as three mophologies: flakes, rods, and spheres by varying ratio of flow rate or solution concentration. In contrast, the crystallinity of β-sitosterol decreased, whereas its molecular structure remained almost unchanged after being ASES-treated. Therefore, ASES was an effective method to produce submicroparticles of β-sitosterol.展开更多

Antioxidant activity was determined, including that of DPPH radicals, hydrogen peroxide and superoxide anion radicals, as well as ABTS radicals of BMC or AMC in grape juice. AMC exhibits stronger scavenging activity toward DPPH radicals, superoxide anion radicals and hydrogen peroxide than BMC. At a concentration of 1.0 mg/mL, AMC in grape juice exhibited 90.0%, 97.3% and 88.7% scavenging activities toward DPPH radicals, hydrogen peroxide and superoxide anion radicals, respectively. The TEAC (Trolox Equivalent Antioxidant Capacity) values of AMC (3.94 ± 0.19) greatly exceeded those of BMC (2.21 ± 0.10) in grape juice. The in vitro results in this investigation suggest the possibility that AMC can increase the antioxidant activity in grape juice. However, comprehensive studies must be performed to ascertain the in vivo safety of AMC in experimental animal models.展开更多

Manually sliced papayas were treated with 0%, 0.25%, 0.5%, and 1% chitosan (non-micronized and micronized) aqueous solutions;placed into plastic trays, and over-wrapped with PVDC film and then stored at 4°C. Color, soluble solid content, water loss, and total plate count of samples were evaluated. Chitosan coating had the ability to maintain the lightness of the sliced papayas. The a* values of the micronized chitosan-coated sliced papayas were significantly lower than those of the-coated. The sliced papayas that had been treated with 1% MC had a higher total soluble solid content and lower b* value after four days of storage. Also, the chitosan coating on the sliced papaya effectively retarded water loss and inhibited the growth of microorganisms. The results reveal that applying a chitosan coating effectively maintained the quality attributes and prolonged the shelf life of the sliced papayas.展开更多

This filler is considered as chemically inert material,which can not react with water or hydration products,but still indirectly influences the hydration in a positive way. In the experimental program,non-evaporable water test was carried out to determine the degree of hydration of cement paste with and without micronized sands. The influence of different finenesses of sand particles,240 m2/kg,400 m2/kg and 1 300 m2/kg,and different curing ages were investigated. The SEM image analysis was used to characterize the morphological changes of microstructure by the presence of the micronized sand during the cement hydration process. Hydration reaction is enhanced by the use of inert micronized sands. The fineness of micronized sands influences the degree of hydration a lot. The fineness factor has been taken into account in the simulation. There is a clear interface area between sand particle and hydration products.展开更多

文摘Griseofulvin (GF) is an antifungal drug whose pharmaceutical activity can be improved by reducing particle size. In this study the rapid expansion of supercritical solution (RESS) was employed to micronize GF.Carbon dioxide with cosolvent acetone was chosen as a supercritical mixed solvent. The solubility of GF in super-critical CO2 with cosolvent acetone was measured using a dynamic apparatus at pressures between 12 and 32 MPa,temperatures at 313, 323 and 333 K and cosolvent concentration at 1.5, 3.0, 4.5 and 6.0% (by mole). The effect of pre-expansion pressure, extraction temperature, spraying distance, nozzle size and concentration of cosolvent on the precipitated particles was investigated. The results show that the mean particle size of griseofulvin precipitated by RESS was less than 1.2μm. An increase in pre-expansion pressure, extraction temperature, spraying distance and concentration of cosolvent resulted in a decrease in particle size under the operating condition studied.

Color, soluble solid content, water loss, and total plate count of samples were evaluated. Chitosan coating had the ability to maintain the lightness of the sliced papayas. The a* values of the micronized chitosan-coated sliced papayas were significantly lower than those of the-coated. The sliced papayas that had been treated with 1% MC had a higher total soluble solid content and lower b* value after four days of storage. Also, the chitosan coating on the sliced papaya effectively retarded water loss and inhibited the growth of microorganisms. The results reveal that applying a chitosan coating effectively maintained the quality attributes and prolonged the shelf life of the sliced papayas.
文摘In this study,micronized sand is selected as a kind of filler to partially replace cement in cementitious materials. This filler is considered as chemically inert material,which can not react with water or hydration products,but still indirectly influences the hydration in a positive way. In the experimental program,non-evaporable water test was carried out to determine the degree of hydration of cement paste with and without micronized sands. The influence of different finenesses of sand particles,240 m2/kg,400 m2/kg and 1 300 m2/kg,and different curing ages were investigated. The SEM image analysis was used to characterize the morphological changes of microstructure by the presence of the micronized sand during the cement hydration process. Hydration reaction is enhanced by the use of inert micronized sands. The fineness of micronized sands influences the degree of hydration a lot. The fineness factor has been taken into account in the simulation. There is a clear interface area between sand particle and hydration products.

文摘Micron/nano scale topographic modification has been a significant focus of interest in current titanium(Ti)surface design.However,the influence of micron/nano structured surface on cell or bacterium behavior on the Ti implant has rarely been systematically evaluated.Moreover,except for popular microgrooves,little work has been carried out on the reaction of cells to the bionic structure.In this study,several micro-pillars mimicking cell morphology were prepared on Ti surfaces by lithography and contact printing(ICP)method,and they were further decorated with nanotube arrays by anodization technology.These surface modifications remarkablly increased the surface roughness of pristine Ti surface from 91.17 nm±5.57 nm to be more than 1000 nm,and reduced their water contact angles from 68.3°±0.7°to be 16.9°±2.4°.Then,the effects of these hierarchical micron/nano scale patterns on the behaviors of MG63 osteoblasts,L929 fibroblasts,SCC epithelial cells and P.gingivalis were studied,aiming to evaluate their performance in osseointegration,gingival epithelial sealing and antibacterial ability.Through an innovative scoring strategy,our findings showed that square micro-pillars with 6μm width and 2μm height combined with 85 nm diameter nanotubes was suitable for implant neck design,while square micro-pillars with 3μm width and 3.6μm height combined with 55 nm diameter nanotubes was the best for implant body design.Our study reveals the synergistic effect of the hierarchical micron/nano scale patterns on MG63 osteoblasts,L929 fibroblasts,SCC epithelial cells and P.gingivalis functions.It provides insight into the design of biomedical implant surfaces.
