Infrared spectra (IR) revealed that there was a substitution reaction mainly on the amine groups of chitosan (CS). By using paracetamol (PCTM) as a model drug, the balanced release concentration of PCTM in phosphate buffer solution (pH=7.4) can be decreased with the increase of degree of substitution alkyl and can be reduced effectively even under a lower PCTM loading.展开更多

The product is thoroughly characterized with the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FrIR), the electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA), the thermogravimetric (TG) and the scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It is found that chitosan is successfully grafted onto PBTNW. In addition, the water contact angles, hemolysis tests and cytotoxicity evaluation tests show an improvement in wettability and biocompatihility as a result of graft copolymerization of chitosan. So the CS-grafted PBTNW exhibits greater superiority than the original PBTNW. The CS-grafted PBTNW can be a candidate for blood filter materials and other medical applications.展开更多

The review demonstrated the new progress of APG in synthesis technology and their applications in environmental waste disposal, medicine and stockbreeding in recently years. Thus, the future development of APG was also prospected.展开更多

Chloroacetylated 1,2;4,5-di-O-isopropylidene-D-fructopyranose was reacted with a tertiary amine to form the ammonium salt, which was treated with cesium carbonate to give the cyclopropane derivative through ylide intermediate. The described procedure provides an efficient method to synthesize optically pure dior poly-substituded cyclopropanes.展开更多

A series of alkyl rhamnosides with different carbon chain lengths were obtained by a simple and effective synthesis method. The structure was characterized by ~1H NMR spectrum, and their critical micelle concentration(CMC) was measured by fluorescence probe method. The hydrophilic and lipophilic balance(HLB) value was obtained by calculation. The minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC) of Staphylococcus aureus was determined by the broth double dilution method. The effect of biofilm inhibition and biofilm disruption was assayed by crystal violet method. The results showed that with the increase of carbon chain length, the CMC and HLB of alkyl rhamnosides displayed a linear downward trend, indicating that the lipophilicity and surface activity of the alkyl rhamnoside were increased. At the same time, the antibacterial activity in vitro produced the maximum, ie, 12-hydroxydecanoyl rhamnoside had the strongest antibacterial activity in vitro. Similarly, this material also exhibited the strongest antibacterial biofilm activity in vitro. The results of this study demonstrated that the most potent active material was obtained through the structure-activity relationship and it could be applied antibacterial biofilms in clinical practice.展开更多
