The widely used Aspetyillus niger lipase （ANL） was immobilized on the PD-MNPs （ANL@PD-MNPs） with a protein loading of 138 mg/g and an activity recovery of 83.6% under optimized conditions. For the immobilization, the pH and immobilization time were investigated. The pH and thermal and storage stability of the ANL@PD-MNPs significant- ly surpassed those of free ANL. The ANL@PD-MNPs had better solvent tolerance than free ANL. The secondary structure of free ANL and ANL@PD-MNPs was analyzed by infrared spectroscopy, A kinetic study demonstrated that the ANL@PD-MNPs had enhanced enzyme-substrate affinity and high catalytic efficiency. The ANL@PD-MNPs was applied as a biocatalyst for the regioselective acylation of dihydromyricetin （DMY） in DMSO and gave a conversion of 79.3%, which was higher than that of previous reports. The ANL@PD-MNPs retained over 55% of its initial activity after 10 cycles of reuse. The ANL@PD-MNPs were readily separated from the reaction system by a magnet. The PD-MNPs is an excellent support for ANL and the resulting ANL@PD-MNPs displayed good potential for the efficient synthesis of dihydromyricetin-3-acetate by enzymatic regioselective acylation.展开更多

文摘In this work,a novel electrochemical sensor based on covalent organic framework@carbon black@molecularly imprinted polydopamine(COF@CB@MPDA)was developed for selective recognition and determination of ciprofloxacin(CF).COF@CB@MPDA possessed good water dispersibility and was synthesized by the selfpolymerization of dopamine under alkaline conditions in the presence of the COF,CB and CF.The high surface area COF enhanced the adsorption of CF,whilst CB gave the composites high electrical conductivity to improve the sensitivity of the proposed COF@CB@MPDA/glassy carbon electrode(GCE)sensor.The specific recognition of CF by COF@CB@MPDA involved hydrogen bonding and van der Waals interactions.Under optimized conditions,the sensor showed a good linear relationship with CF concentration over the range of 5.0×10^(–7)and 1.0×10^(–4)mol/L,with a limit of detection(LOD)of 9.53×10^(–8)mol/L.Further,the developed sensor exhibited high selectivity,repeatability and stability for CF detection in milk and milk powders.The method used to fabricate the COF@CB@MPDA/GCE sensor could be easily adapted for the selective recognition and detection of other antibacterial agents and organic pollutants in the environment.

文摘Large-scale bismuth vanadate(BiVO_(4))photoanodes are critical to the practical application of photoelectrochemical water splitting devices.However,the lack of interface-modified coatings with simultaneous low cost,scalability,high hole transport efficiency,low impedance,and photocorrosion resistance is a major challenge that prevents the practical application of large-size photoanodes.Here,we present a scalable nickel-chelated polydopamine conformal coating for modifying BiVO_(4)(BiVO_(4)@PDA-Ni,BPNi),achieving over 500 h of stable water oxidation at 0.6 VRHE.The excellent stability is attributed to the chelated Ni acting as hole oxidation sites for PDA,thereby suppressing the accumulated-holes-induced PDA decomposition.Additionally,the in situ generation of Ni(IV)facilitates the structural reorganization of PDA in the photoelectrochemical system,further enhancing the stability of the PDA matrix.The findings of PDA photodegradation,its autonomous metal ion capture within photoelectrochemical systems,and the rapid deactivation of BPNi photoanodes caused by vanadium(V)ions have all provided significant guidance for the enhancement of PDA.Our study demonstrates that nickel-chelated polydopamine can be applied to large-scale BiVO_(4) photoanodes to facilitate oxygen evolution.This will promote the development of large-scale photoanodes suitable for photoelectrochemical devices.

文摘Two-dimensional materials have been proved to be effective in improving the performance of anticorrosive coatings.However,most of the reported two-dimensional materials only have the ability to passively block corrosive media and cannot effectively inhibit localized corrosion reactions at the metal/coating interface.Herein,we first synthesized a novel polyaniline(PANI)nanosheet with both barrier and passivation functions for metals.In addition,polydopamine(PDA)wrapped PANI nanosheets(PANI@PDA)were obtained by in situ self-polymerization reaction of dopamine on the PANI surface,which enhance its interfacial interaction with polymeric resin.The chemical structure,morphology and corrosion inhibition properties of the nanosheets were systematically analyzed.The incorporated PANI@PDA nanosheets in composite coating provide a longer penetration path for corrosive mediums.Secondly,the uniformly dispersed two-dimensional nanosheets induce the formation of passivation film on the metal substrate.The protective effect of PANI@PDA nanosheets on coatings was verified by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS).Results indicated that the prepared composite coating exhibited excellent corrosion resistance throughout the test cycle.This simple and effective modification strategy based on conductive polymers provides a new insight into the development of environmentally adaptive composite coatings with active and passive protection.

文摘Lignocellulose has the potential to become a bio-based adsorbent due to its biodegradability and renewability.In this study,a novel polydopamine functionalized-lignin(lignin@PDA),prepared via self-polymerization of dopamine(PDA)on lignin,was used as a bio-based adsorbent for rapid scavenging of hexavalent chromium(Cr(VI)).The morphology,functional groups,crystalline structure,and chemical composition of lignin@PDA were characterized with a scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive spectrometer,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,X-ray diffraction,and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.The Cr(VI)adsorption process of lignin@PDA was studied using batch experiments as a function of pH,ionic strength,adsorbent dose,and contact time at room temperature.The adsorption rate of lignin@PDA was five times greater than that of the unmodified lignin,with a maximum adsorption capacity of 102.6 mg/g in an acidic medium.The adsorption of Cr(VI)on lignin@PDA fit the pseudo-secondorder equation and the Freundlich model,indicating that the adsorption process was mainly dominated by chemisorption and surface complexation.The thermodynamic parameters showed that adsorption of Cr(VI)on lignin@PDA was an endothermic and spontaneous process.The X-ray absorption fine structure results showed that sorption and reduction of Cr(VI)into Cr(II)occurred simultaneously on lignin.Moreover,PDA coating not only improved the reactivity of lignin but also promoted the complete reduction of Cr(VI)by lignin.According to these results,polydopamine functionalized-lignin is a promising bio-based adsorbent for immobilization of Cr(VI)from wastewater.

文摘Due to the limitations of conventional chemotherapy including side effects,poor prognosis,and drug resistance,there is an urgent need for the development of a novel multi-functional combined therapy strategy.Dopamine-modified oxaliplatin prodrug(OXA-DA)was successfully synthesized in this study to ameliorate the organ distribution of oxaliplatin for improving the drug efficacy and reducing toxic side effects,and OXA-DA was applied to develop a porous oxaliplatin cross-linked polydopamine nanoparticle for loading siPD-L1 to construct multifunctional nanoplatform.The multifunctional nanoplatform was modified with poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline)(PEOz),which occurred charge reversal in the tumor microenvironment,and exerted the lysosomal escape effect in tumor cells to improve the bioavailability of small interfering RNA targeting programmed cell death-ligand 1(siPD-L1).The pH-responsive charge reversal,photothermal,biodegradation,lysosomal escape ability,PD-L1 protein degradation,toxicity properties and multiple antitumor effects were comprehensively evaluated in vitro and in vivo experiments.The findings indicated that OXA-DA-siPD-L1@PDA-PEOz excellently induced tumor cell necrosis and apoptosis as a result of the synergistic effect of chemo-photothermal therapy,and upregulated CD8+T cells produced interferon-γ(IFN-γ)to further attack the tumor cells.In conclusion,the novel nanoplatform-mediated chemo/photothermal/immunotherapy has promising clinical applications in the treatment of malignant tumors.

文摘Magnesium-doped calcium silicate(CS)bioceramic scaffolds have unique advantages in mandibular defect repair;however,they lack antibacterial properties to cope with the complex oral microbiome.Herein,for the first time,the CS scaffold was functionally modified with a novel copper-containing polydopamine(PDA(Cu^(2+)))rapid deposition method,to construct internally modified(*P),externally modified(@PDA),and dually modified(*P@PDA)scaffolds.The morphology,degradation behavior,and mechanical properties of the obtained scaffolds were evaluated in vitro.The results showed that the CS*P@PDA had a unique micro-/nano-structural surface and appreciable mechanical resistance.During the prolonged immersion stage,the release of copper ions from the CS*P@PDA scaffolds was rapid in the early stage and exhibited long-term sustained release.The in vitro evaluation revealed that the release behavior of copper ions ascribed an excellent antibacterial effect to the CS*P@PDA,while the scaffolds retained good cytocompatibility with improved osteogenesis and angiogenesis effects.Finally,the PDA(Cu^(2+))-modified scaffolds showed effective early bone regeneration in a critical-size rabbit mandibular defect model.Overall,it was indicated that considerable antibacterial property along with the enhancement of alveolar bone regeneration can be imparted to the scaffold by the two-step PDA(Cu^(2+))modification,and the convenience and wide applicability of this technique make it a promising strategy to avoid bacterial infections on implants.

文摘Biodegradable magnesium(Mg)and its alloys exhibit excellent biocompatibility and mechanical compatibility,demonstrating tremendous potential for applications in orthopedics.However,the rapid degradation rate has limited their clinical application.Polycaprolactone(PCL)is commonly employed as a polymer coating to impede the rapid degradation of Mg.Unfortunately,its long-term anti-corrosion capability and bioactivity are inadequate.To address these issues,polydopamine(PDA)-modified zeolitic imidazolate framework-8(PZIF-8)bioactive nanoparticles are fabricated and incorporated into the PCL coating.The PZIF-8 particles,featuring catechol motifs,can enhance the compactness of the PCL coating,reduce its defects,and possess biomineralization ability,thereby effectively improving its anti-corrosive and bioactive properties.Moreover,the active substances released from the degradation of the PZIF-8 particles such as Zn^(2+)and PDA are beneficial for osteogenesis.The corrosion tests indicate that the corrosion current density of PCL-treated sample decreases by more than one order of magnitude and the amount of H_(2)released decreases from 0.23±0.12 to 0.08±0.08 ml cm^(-2)after doping with the PZIF-8.Furthermore,the improved corrosion resistance and released PDA and Zn^(2+)from the coating can promote osteogenic differentiation by up-regulating the expression of alkaline phosphatase activity,related osteogenic genes,and proteins.In addition,in vivo implantation experiments in rabbit femur defects further offer strong evidence that the doping of PZIF-8 nanoparticles accelerates bone reconstruction of the PCL coating.In summary,this work implies a new strategy to fabricate a PCL-based coating on Mg-based implants by introducing the PZIF-8 particles for orthopedic applications.

文摘Polydopamine(PDA)and metal-organic skeleton HKUST-1 were co-deposited on the base membrane of hexamethylenediamine(HDA)-crosslinked polyetherimide(PEI)ultrafiltration membrane as the interlayer,and high-throughput organic solvent nanofiltration membrane(OSN)was prepared by interfacial polymerization and solvent activation reaction.The polyamide(PA)layer surface roughness from 28.4 nm in PA/PEI to 78.3 nm in PA/PDA-HKUST-10.6/PEI membrane,reduced the thickness of the separation layer from 79 to 14 nm,and significantly improved the hydrophilic,thermal and mechanical properties.The flux of the PA/PDA-HKUST-10.6/PEI membrane in a 0.1 g/L Congo Red(CR)ethanol solution at 0.6 MPa test pressure reached 21.8 L/(m^(2)·hr)and the rejection of CR was 92.8%.Solvent adsorption test,N,N-dimethylformamide(DMF)immersion experiment,and long-term operation test in ethanol showed that the membranes had high solvent tolerance.The solvent flux test demonstrated that,under the test pressure of 0.6 MPa,the flux of different solvents ranked as follows:methanol(56.9 L/(m^(2)·hr))>DMF(39.6 L/(m^(2)·hr))>ethanol(31.2 L/(m^(2)·hr))>IPA(4.5 L/(m^(2)·hr))>N-hexane(1.9 L/(m^(2)·hr)).The ability of the membranes to retain dyes in IPA/water dyes solution was also evaluated.The flux of the membrane was 30.4 L/(m^(2)·hr)and the rejection of CR was 91.6%when the IPA concentration reached 50%.This OSN membrane-making strategy is economical,environment-friendly and efficient,and has a great application prospect in organic solvent separation systems.

文摘Two-dimensional(2D)mesoporous pseudocapacitive polymer/graphene heterostructures combine the advanced merits of 2D materials and mesoporous materials,possessing unique nanosheet structure,large specific surface area(SSA),abundant oxygen/nitrogen-containing groups,desirable electrical conductivity and admirable electrochemical redox activity,and hold great potential for constructing high-performance planar micro-supercapacitors(MSCs).Herein,we demonstrate the interfacial assembly of 2D mesoporous polydopamine/graphene(mPDG)heterostructures with well-defined mesopore structure(12 nm)and adjustable thickness(7.5–14.1 nm)for planar high-energy pseudocapacitive MSCs.Attributed to medium thickness,exposed mesopore of 12 nm and large SSA of 108 m^(2)/g,the m PDG with 10.8 nm thickness reveals prominent mass capacitance of 419 F/g and impressive cycling stability with~96%capacitance retention after 5000 cycles.Furthermore,the symmetric mPDG-based MSCs with“water-in-salt”gel electrolyte present wide voltage window of 1.6 V,superior volumetric energy density of 11.5 mWh/cm^(3),outstanding flexibility and self-integration ability.Therefore,this work offers a new platform of controllably synthesizing 2D mesoporous heterostructures for high-performance MSCs.
文摘Amultifunctional liposomal polydopamine nanoparticle(MPM@Lipo)was designed in this study,to combine chemotherapy,photothermal therapy(PTT)and oxygen enrichment to clear hyperproliferating inflammatory cells and improve the hypoxic microenvironment for rheumatoid arthritis(RA)treatment.MPM@Lipo significantly scavenged intracellular reactive oxygen species and relieved joint hypoxia,thus contributing to the repolarization of M1 macrophages into M2 phenotype.Furthermore,MPM@Lipo could accumulate at inflammatory joints,inhibit the production of inflammatory factors,and protect cartilage in vivo,effectively alleviating RA progression in a rat adjuvant-induced arthritis model.Moreover,upon laser irradiation,MPM@Lipo can elevate the temperature to not only significantly obliterate excessively proliferating inflammatory cells but also accelerate the production of methotrexate and oxygen,resulting in excellent RA treatment effects.Overall,the use of synergistic chemotherapy/PTT/oxygen enrichment therapy to treat RA is a powerful potential strategy.

文摘A support made of mussel-inspired polydopamine-coated magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles （PD-MNPs） was prepared and characterized. The widely used Aspetyillus niger lipase （ANL） was immobilized on the PD-MNPs （ANL@PD-MNPs） with a protein loading of 138 mg/g and an activity recovery of 83.6% under optimized conditions. For the immobilization, the pH and immobilization time were investigated. The pH and thermal and storage stability of the ANL@PD-MNPs significant- ly surpassed those of free ANL. The ANL@PD-MNPs had better solvent tolerance than free ANL. The secondary structure of free ANL and ANL@PD-MNPs was analyzed by infrared spectroscopy, A kinetic study demonstrated that the ANL@PD-MNPs had enhanced enzyme-substrate affinity and high catalytic efficiency. The ANL@PD-MNPs was applied as a biocatalyst for the regioselective acylation of dihydromyricetin （DMY） in DMSO and gave a conversion of 79.3%, which was higher than that of previous reports. The ANL@PD-MNPs retained over 55% of its initial activity after 10 cycles of reuse. The ANL@PD-MNPs were readily separated from the reaction system by a magnet. The PD-MNPs is an excellent support for ANL and the resulting ANL@PD-MNPs displayed good potential for the efficient synthesis of dihydromyricetin-3-acetate by enzymatic regioselective acylation.

文摘Zirconium-based metal-organic frameworks(Zr-MOFs)have attracted widespread attention due to their high specific surface area,high porosity,abundant metal active sites and excellent hydrothermal stability.However,Zr-MOFs materials are mostly powdery in nature and thus difficult to separate from aqueous media,which limits their application in wastewater treatment.In this study,PDA/Zr-MOFs/PU foam was constructed by growing Zr-MOFs nanoparticles on a dopamine-modified polyurethane foam substrate by in-situ hydrothermal synthesis as an adsorbent for removing dyes from wastewater.The results demonstrated that the polydopamine coating improves the dispersion of the Zr-MOFs nanoparticles on the substrate and enhances the interaction between the Zr-MOFs nanoparticles and the PU foam substrate.As a result,compared with Zr-MOFs/PU foam,the prepared PDA/ZrMOFs/PU foam exhibits higher adsorption capacity for crystal violet(CV)(63.38 mg/g)and rhodamine B(RB)(67.73 mg/g),with maximum adsorption efficiencies of CV and RB of 98.4%(pH=11)and 93.5%(pH=7),respectively,at a concentration of 10 mg/L.The PDA/Zr-MOFs/PU foam can simultaneously remove CV and RB from the mixed solution.Moreover,the PDA/ZrMOFs/PU foam still exhibits high stability and reusability after five cycles.

文摘Exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells are of therapeutic interest because of their important role in intracellular communication and biological regulation.On the basis of previously studied nerve conduits,we designed a polydopamine-modified chitin conduit loaded with mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes that release the exosomes in a sustained and stable manner.In vitro experiments revealed that rat mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes enhanced Schwann cell proliferation and secretion of neurotrophic and growth factors,increased the expression of Jun and Sox2 genes,decreased the expression of Mbp and Krox20 genes in Schwann cells,and reprogrammed Schwann cells to a repair phenotype.Furthermore,mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes promoted neurite growth of dorsal root ganglia.The polydopamine-modified chitin conduits loaded with mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes were used to bridge 2 mm rat sciatic nerve defects.Sustained release of exosomes greatly accelerated nerve healing and improved nerve function.These findings confirm that sustained release of mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes loaded into polydopamine-modified chitin conduits promotes the functional recovery of injured peripheral nerves.

文摘Because of the impressive evolution of the drugresistant bacteria,the development of efficient,antibioticfree agent is in great urgency.Herein,an efficient antibacterial agent,CuS@HKUST-polydopamine(PDA),was exquisitely designed,where the Cu-based metal-organic framework(MOF)—HKUST nanoparticles served as the porous frame,and the CuS was synthesized within the structure of the MOF through the process of in situ sulfuration,followed with polydopamine(PDA)covering the nanoparticles.The structure of the HKUST preventing the aggregation of the CuS nanoparticles,which improved their photothermal and photocatalytic properties.After covering with PDA,the nanoparticles’abilities to produce heat and free radicals were further enhanced.This was because that the PDA itself could transform light into heat,which not only benefited the photothermal property,but also improved the photocatalytic property of the nanoparticles by accelerating the charge mobility.Moreover,the PDA could also transfer the photo-induced electrons fast and thus prevented the recombination of the photo-generated electron–hole pairs,which resulted in the enhanced ability to produce free radicals.As a result,under light irradiation,the antibacterial efficiency of the CuS@HKUST-PDA against Staphylococcus aureus(S.aureus)and Escherichia coli(E.coli)could reach 99.77%and 99.57%.Hence,the synthesized CuS@HKUST-PDA can be promising for anti-infection and sterilization application without using antibiotics.

文摘Epoxy resin powder coating has been successfully applied on the corrosion protection of magnesium lithium alloys.However,poor wear resistance and microcracks formed during the solidification have limited it extensive application.There are limited approaches to exploit such anti-corrosion and mechanical properties of magnesium lithium alloys.Herein,the epoxy resin powder coating with polydopamine modified molybdenum disulfide(MoS_(2)@PDA-EP powder coating with 0,0.1,0.2,0.5,1.0 wt.%loading)was well prepared by melt extrusion to investigate its anticorrosion performance and wear resistance.The results revealed that the addition of MoS_(2)@PDA enhanced the adhesion strength between coatings and alloys,wear resistance and corrosion protection of the powder coatings.Among them,the optimum was obtained by 0.2 wt.%MoS_(2)@PDA-EP powder coating which could be attributed to well dispersion and efficient adhesion with coating matrix.To conclude,MoS_(2)@PDA-EP powder coating is meaningfully beneficial for the anticorrosive and wear performance improvement of magnesium lithium alloys.

文摘The introduction of neurotrophic factors into injured peripheral nerve sites is beneficial to peripheral nerve regeneration.However,neurotrophic facto rs are rapidly degraded in vivo and obstruct axonal regeneration when used at a supraphysiological dose,which limits their clinical benefits.Bioactive mimetic peptides have been developed to be used in place of neurotrophic factors because they have a similar mode of action to the original growth fa ctors and can activate the equivalent receptors but have simplified sequences and structures.In this study,we created polydopamine-modified chitin conduits loaded with brain-derived neurotrophic factor mimetic peptides and vascular endothelial growth fa ctor mimetic peptides(Chi/PDA-Ps).We found that the Chi/PDA-Ps conduits were less cytotoxic in vitro than chitin conduits alone and provided sustained release of functional peptides.In this study,we evaluated the biocompatibility of the Chi/P DA-Ps conduits.Brain-derived neurotrophic factor mimetic peptide and vascular endothelial growth fa ctor mimetic peptide synergistically promoted prolife ration of Schwann cells and secretion of neurotrophic factors by Schwann cells and attachment and migration of endothelial cells in vitro.The Chi/P DA-Ps conduits were used to bridge a 2 mm gap between the nerve stumps in rat models of sciatic nerve injury.We found that the application of Chi/PDA-Ps conduits could improve the motor function of rats and reduce gastrocnemius atrophy.The electrophysiological results and the microstructure of regenerative nerves showed that the nerve conduction function and re myelination was further resto red.These findings suggest that the Chi/PDA-Ps conduits have great potential in peripheral nerve injury repair.

文摘An ultrasensitive electrochemical sensor based on polydopamine/carboxylic multi-walled carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs à COOH) nanocomposites modified glassy carbon electrode(GCE) was presented in this work, which has been developed for highly selective and highly sensitive determination of an antimicrobial drug, metronidazole. The preparation of polydopamine/MWCNTs–COOH nanocomposites/GCE sensor is simple and possesses high reproducible, where polydopamine can be coated on the surface of MWCNTs–COOH via a simple electropolymerization process. Under optimized conditions, the proposed sensor showed ultrasensitive determination for metronidazole with a wide linear detection range from5 to 5000 mmol/dm^3 and a low detection limit of 0.25 mmol/dm^3(S/N=3). Moreover, the proposed sensor has been successfully applied for the quantitative determination of metronidazole in real drug samples. This work may provide a novel and effective analytical platform for determination of metronidazole in application of real pharmaceutical and biological samples analysis.
