新的先进材料的抗菌活性可以通过这个易于遵循的协议来分析, 它由2个补充程序组成, 根据2现有的方法: 琼脂盘扩散试验38和测定的抗菌活性材料表面根据 ISO 22196:2007 规范39。
在这一研究领域中, 许多文献中报告的抗菌试验都是高度依赖于检测的。因此, 在实验室中制定详细和一致的协议是非常重要的。这篇文章是朝这个方向迈出的一步。此外, 这可能是非常有益的许多研究员在这一领域经验较少, 并要求深入, 循序渐进的程序, 以获得准确的结果。
该协议可与多种类型的材料切割成10毫米直径的圆盘形状。脆性材料可以在合适的溶剂中膨胀1小时, 使切割过程更容易。因此, 海藻酸盐等亲水性物质可以在蒸压蒸馏水中水合。其他溶剂, 如乙醇, 酮, 和二氯甲烷, 可用于膨胀疏水性材料1小时前切割它们。然而, 一些材料, 如聚 (3-羟基-3-hydroxyvalerate) 不需要肿胀, 他们可以直接削减。之后, 在真空烤箱中干燥样品材料盘, 用乙醇和紫外线照射1小时以避免任何污染风险是非常重要的。
该议定书建议 TSA 和传播媒介作为培养基和使用纯文化的3种微生物, 以达到广泛的微生物: 革兰氏阳性细菌金黄色葡萄球菌, 革兰阴性菌大肠杆菌, 和酵母白色念珠菌。然而, 其他需要不同孵化条件的培养基和其他微生物也可与本议定书一起使用。有时, 只有1种微生物被测试, 对新材料的抗菌活性有初步的认识。
对于推荐的3种不同类型的微生物, 还应对耐药性致病菌 (如耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌(MRSE)) 进行试验, 以证明对这种抗菌活性强的材料,已成功地用于该协议。引起人们关注的其他重要的耐药性微生物有革兰阳性耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌 (MRSA) 和万古霉素耐药肠球菌(VRE), 革兰阴性铜绿假单胞菌40,41。
生物膜抑制和材料对其他类型的微生物 (如病毒和寄生虫) 的抗菌活性不能用这个协议来检验。然而, 这一议定书提供了一个非常有用的出发点, 对新的先进材料的抗菌研究。
在抗菌琼脂盘扩散试验中, 当样品盘必须放在板的中心时, 就会出现一个关键步骤, 因为有些材料一旦接触到琼脂介质就会折叠起来。在这种情况下, 建议使用无菌对镊子仔细展开样品。另一方面, 在接触方法中, 非常重要的是要清洗的控制和样品盘很好地与 PBS 通过吹打他们的四倍, 其次是一个强有力的涡流和超声波, 以确保没有可行的微生物继续坚持材料表面。
该视频协议可用于许多生物工程应用, 如生物工程, 组织工程, 控制药物交付, 包装材料, 废水处理和农业, 其中使用生物材料与高度理想的抗菌能力。
该协议所得到的结果是定性的 (图像) 和定量 (抗菌 "晕" 的归一化宽度和生存能力的丧失), 并对其重现性 (平均标准偏差) 进行了较好的分析。在对不同材料进行比较时, 利用扩散和接触法结果分析得出的这些平均值必须采用单向方差分析, 其次是土耳其的事后分析, 以便研究它们在统计学上是否显著不同 (p < 0.01)。

种植失败往往是微生物感染的结果, 尽管抗菌预防和无菌工作条件。这个问题造成了很高的医疗成本, 在1患者中令人痛心。重要的细菌, 如金黄色葡萄球菌目前被认为是非常危险的病原体与导管和其他医疗植入物相关的医院感染, 是医疗器械的主要污染物2。因此, 迫切需要制定新的抗菌策略, 以供日常和医疗使用。
抗菌剂包括抗生素3, 季铵盐化合物4, 金属离子/氧化物5, 抗菌肽 (安培)6。由于抗生素过量使用8, 抗生素的效率正逐渐降低, 因为细菌耐药性7。季铵盐化合物是非常有效的短期使用, 因为微生物抗药性9。金属离子/氧化物长期以来被用作非常有效的抗菌剂, 并用于许多常见的商业产品, 包括绷带, 水过滤器, 油漆等10,11,12。然而, 已经证明, 这些类型的化合物可能对某些类型的哺乳动物细胞有毒13。
安培显示优秀的抗菌和免疫调节性能14,15, 和细菌似乎发现很难对他们的抵抗16。然而, 生产纯安培的过程是昂贵的;所以, 大规模生产是行不通的。因此, 制定了对付生产安培的问题的策略 (例如, 小分子抗菌 peptoid 模仿17, peptoids18, α肽19和β肽20)。对21的抗菌和防污涂料合成了甲基丙烯酸酯-端多肽和 polypeptoids。
新型抗菌剂的研制, 如先进材料的纯或混合形式, 能够预防和治疗多药耐药性感染, 越来越有必要。在过去数十年中, 通过几种方法改进了各种生物工程领域的新材料, 如组织和生物工程, 通过多种途径进行了化学和物理性质的改良: 等离子体聚合接枝到疏水性衬底22,23,24, 交联密度25,26, 聚合在溶液27,28,29,30, porogen 溶解31,32, 并且由纳米材料的并网例如石墨烯氧化物 (去)33,34,35,36和碳纳米纤维 (生长)37。
对这些新材料的抗菌能力的研究可以成倍地提高其潜在的生物工程适用性, 因此成为必要的。我们提出了一个易于遵循的协议, 以量化的抗菌活性, 这种新的先进材料。在样品制备后, 采用两种互补的方法: 第一个是基于琼脂盘扩散试验38 (扩散法), 第二种是基于 ISO 22196:2007 规范39来测量抗菌活性的材料表面 (接触法)。

antimicrobial characterization of advanced materials for bioengineering applications

在各种生物工程应用中, 开发具有增强性能的新型新材料越来越重要。因此, 许多新的生物材料正在设计, 以模拟生物医学应用所需的特定环境, 如组织工程和控制药物交付。在生物工程中, 对细胞或酶的固定化性能改善的材料的开发也是目前研究的课题。然而, 在这些应用中, 材料的最可取的属性之一是抗菌能力, 以避免任何不良感染。为此, 我们提出了基于 (i) 琼脂盘扩散试验 (扩散法) 和 (ii) ISO 22196:2007 规范测量材料表面抗菌活性的材料抗菌性能的易于遵循的协议 (接触方法)。该协议必须使用革兰氏阳性和革兰阴性菌和酵母, 以涵盖广泛的微生物。以4种不同化学性质的材料为例, 对金黄色葡萄球菌、大肠杆菌和白色念珠菌进行了试验. 这些试验的结果显示, 第一种材料的非抗菌活性和增加抗菌活性的革兰阳性和革兰阴性菌的其他3种材料。然而, 4 种材料中没有一个能抑制白色念珠菌的生长。

以此为例, 以4种不同化学性质的材料对3推荐微生物的抗菌能力进行了测试:金黄色葡萄球菌、大肠杆菌和白色念珠菌 .琼脂盘扩散试验 (扩散法) 的结果为第一材料 (M1) 在控制盘 (C、图像未显示) 和增加抗菌活性的革兰氏阳性和革兰阴性时的非抗菌活性。其他3材料的细菌 M2、M3 和 M4 (见图 2)。
<img alt="Figure 2" class="xfigimg" src="/files/ftp_upload/57710/57710fig2.jpg"> 图 2: 抗菌扩散方法结果.该面板显示了4种材料 (M1、M2、M3 和 M4) 盘 (10 毫米直径 x 1 毫米厚度) 的抗菌扩散方法, 对金黄色葡萄球菌和大肠杆菌进行了24小时的孵化。<a href="/files/ftp_upload/57710/57710fig2large.jpg" target="_blank">请单击此处查看此图的较大版本.</a>
图 3显示了不同的示例材料 M1、M2、M3 和 M4 的不同规范化宽度的抗菌 "晕" (nw晕), 对革兰氏阳性和革兰阴性菌的计算公式 (1)。然而, 4 种材料中没有一个能抑制酵母白色念珠菌的生长 (图像没有显示)。

Designing a Bio-responsive Robot from DNA Origami

Nucleic acids are astonishingly versatile. In addition to their natural role as storage medium for biological information1, they can be utilized in parallel computing2,3 , recognize and bind molecular or cellular targets4,5 , catalyze chemical reactions6,7 , and generate calculated responses in a biological system8,9. Importantly, nucleic acids can be programmed to self-assemble into 2D and 3D structures10-12, enabling the integration of all these remarkable features in a single robot linking the sensing of biological cues to a preset response in order to exert a desired effect.
Creating shapes from nucleic acids was first proposed by Seeman13, and several variations on this theme have since been realized using various techniques11,12,14,15 . However, the most significant is perhaps the one proposed by Rothemund, termed scaffolded DNA origami16. In this technique, the folding of a long (&gt;7,000 bases) single-stranded DNA 'scaffold' is directed to a desired shape by hundreds of short complementary strands termed 'staples'. Folding is carried out by temperature annealing ramp. This technique was successfully demonstrated in the creation of a diverse array of 2D shapes with remarkable precision and robustness. DNA origami was later extended to 3D as well17,18 .
 
The current paper will focus on the caDNAno 2.0 software19 developed by Douglas and colleagues. caDNAno is a robust, user-friendly CAD tool enabling the design of 2D and 3D DNA origami shapes with versatile features. The design process relies on a systematic and accurate abstraction scheme for DNA structures, making it relatively straightforward and efficient.
In this paper we demonstrate the design of a DNA origami nanorobot that has been recently described20. This robot is 'robotic' in the sense that it links sensing to actuation, in order to perform a task. We explain how various sensing schemes can be integrated into the structure, and how this can be relayed to a desired effect. Finally we use Cando21 to simulate the mechanical properties of the designed shape. The concept we discuss can be adapted to multiple tasks and settings.

DNA origami is a powerful method for fabricating precise nanoscale objects by programming the self-assembly of DNA molecules. Here, we describe how DNA origami can be utilized to design a robotic robot capable of sensing biological cues and responding by shape shifting, subsequently relayed to a desired effect.

Designing Silk-silk Protein Alloy Materials for Biomedical Applications

Fibrous proteins display different sequences and structures that have been used for various applications in biomedical fields such as biosensors, nanomedicine, tissue regeneration, and drug delivery. Designing materials based on the molecular-scale interactions between these proteins will help generate new multifunctional protein alloy biomaterials with tunable properties. Such alloy material systems also provide advantages in comparison to traditional synthetic polymers due to the materials biodegradability, biocompatibility, and tenability in the body. This article used the protein blends of wild tussah silk (Antheraea pernyi) and domestic mulberry silk (Bombyx mori) as an example to provide useful protocols regarding these topics, including how to predict protein-protein interactions by computational methods, how to produce protein alloy solutions, how to verify alloy systems by thermal analysis, and how to fabricate variable alloy materials including optical materials with diffraction gratings, electric materials with circuits coatings, and pharmaceutical materials for drug release and delivery. These methods can provide important information for designing the next generation multifunctional biomaterials based on different protein alloys.

Blending is an efficient approach to generate biomaterials with a broad range of properties and combined features. By predicting the molecular interactions between different natural silk proteins, new silk-silk protein alloy platforms with tunable mechanical resiliency, electrical response, optical transparency, chemical processability, biodegradability, or thermal stability can be designed.

Fabricating Superhydrophobic Polymeric Materials for Biomedical Applications

Superhydrophobic materials, with surfaces possessing permanent or metastable non-wetted states, are of interest for a number of biomedical and industrial applications. Here we describe how electrospinning or electrospraying a polymer mixture containing a biodegradable, biocompatible aliphatic polyester (e.g., polycaprolactone and poly(lactide-co-glycolide)), as the major component, doped with a hydrophobic copolymer composed of the polyester and a stearate-modified poly(glycerol carbonate) affords a superhydrophobic biomaterial. The fabrication techniques of electrospinning or electrospraying provide the enhanced surface roughness and porosity on and within the fibers or the particles, respectively. The use of a low surface energy copolymer dopant that blends with the polyester and can be stably electrospun or electrosprayed affords these superhydrophobic materials. Important parameters such as fiber size, copolymer dopant composition and/or concentration, and their effects on wettability are discussed. This combination of polymer chemistry and process engineering affords a versatile approach to develop application-specific materials using scalable techniques, which are likely generalizable to a wider class of polymers for a variety of applications.

Two- and three-dimensional superhydrophobic polymeric materials are prepared by electrospinning or electrospraying biodegradable polymers blended with a lower surface energy polymer of similar composition.

Fabrication of Mechanically Tunable and Bioactive Metal Scaffolds for Biomedical Applications

Biometal systems have been widely used for biomedical applications, in particular, as load-bearing materials. However, major challenges are high stiffness and low bioactivity of metals. In this study, we have developed a new method towards fabricating a new type of bioactive and mechanically reliable porous metal scaffolds-densified porous Ti scaffolds. The method consists of two fabrication processes, 1) the fabrication of porous Ti scaffolds by dynamic freeze casting, and 2) coating and densification of the porous scaffolds. The dynamic freeze casting method to fabricate porous Ti scaffolds allowed the densification of porous scaffolds by minimizing the chemical contamination and structural defects. The densification process is distinctive for three reasons. First, the densification process is simple, because it requires a control of only one parameter (degree of densification). Second, it is effective, as it achieves mechanical enhancement and sustainable release of biomolecules from porous scaffolds. Third, it has broad applications, as it is also applicable to the fabrication of functionally graded porous scaffolds by spatially varied strain during densification.

The Synthesis of RGD-functionalized Hydrogels as a Tool for Therapeutic Applications

The use of polymers as biomaterials has provided significant advantages in therapeutic applications. In particular, the possibility to modify and functionalize polymer chains with compounds that are able to improve biocompatibility, mechanical properties, or cell viability allows the design of novel materials to meet new challenges in the biomedical field. With the polymer functionalization strategies, click chemistry is a powerful tool to improve cell-compatibility and drug delivery properties of polymeric devices. Similarly, the fundamental need of biomedicine to use sterile tools to avoid potential adverse-side effects, such as toxicity or contamination of the biological environment, gives rise to increasing interest in the microwave-assisted strategy.
The combination of click chemistry and the microwave-assisted method is suitable to produce biocompatible hydrogels with desired functionalities and improved performances in biomedical applications. This work aims to synthesize RGD-functionalized hydrogels. RGD (arginylglycylaspartic acid) is a tripeptide that can mimic cell adhesion proteins and bind to cell-surface receptors, creating a hospitable microenvironment for cells within the 3D polymeric network of the hydrogels. RGD functionalization occurs through Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition. Some PAA carboxyl groups are modified with an alkyne moiety, whereas RGD is functionalized with azido acid as the terminal residue of the peptide sequence. Finally, both products are used in a copper catalyzed click reaction to permanently link the peptide to PAA. This modified polymer is used with carbomer, agarose and polyethylene glycol (PEG) to synthesize a hydrogel matrix. The 3D structure is formed due to an esterification reaction involving carboxyl groups from PAA and carbomer and hydroxyl groups from agarose and PEG through microwave-assisted polycondensation. The efficiency of the gelation mechanism ensures a high degree of RGD functionalization. In addition, the procedure to load therapeutic compounds or biological tools within this functionalized network is very simple and reproducible.

We present a protocol for the synthesis of RGD-functionalized hydrogels as devices for cell and drug delivery. The procedure involves copper catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition (CuAAC) between alkyne-modified polyacrylic acid (PAA) and a RGD-azide derivative. The hydrogels are formed using microwave-assisted polycondensation and their physicochemical properties are investigated.

Light-mediated Formation and Patterning of Hydrogels for Cell Culture Applications

Click chemistries have been investigated for use in numerous biomaterials applications, including drug delivery, tissue engineering, and cell culture. In particular, light-mediated click reactions, such as photoinitiated thiol&#8722;ene and thiol&#8722;yne reactions, afford spatiotemporal control over material properties and allow the design of systems with a high degree of user-directed property control. Fabrication and modification of hydrogel-based biomaterials using the precision afforded by light and the versatility offered by these thiol&#8722;X photoclick chemistries are of growing interest, particularly for the culture of cells within well-defined, biomimetic microenvironments. Here, we describe methods for the photoencapsulation of cells and subsequent photopatterning of biochemical cues within hydrogel matrices using versatile and modular building blocks polymerized by a thiol&#8722;ene photoclick reaction. Specifically, an approach is presented for constructing hydrogels from allyloxycarbonyl (Alloc)-functionalized peptide crosslinks and pendant peptide moieties and thiol-functionalized poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) that rapidly polymerize in the presence of lithium acylphosphinate photoinitiator and cytocompatible doses of long wavelength ultraviolet (UV) light. Facile techniques to visualize photopatterning and quantify the concentration of peptides added are described. Additionally, methods are established for encapsulating cells, specifically human mesenchymal stem cells, and determining their viability and activity. While the formation and initial patterning of thiol-alloc hydrogels are shown here, these techniques broadly may be applied to a number of other light and radical-initiated material systems (e.g., thiol-norbornene, thiol-acrylate) to generate patterned substrates.

We describe a sequential process for light-mediated formation and subsequent biochemical patterning of synthetic hydrogel matrices for three-dimensional cell culture applications. The construction and modification of hydrogels with cytocompatible photoclick chemistry is demonstrated. Additionally, facile techniques to quantify and observe patterns and determine cell viability within these hydrogels are presented.

Extraction of Plant-based Capsules for Microencapsulation Applications

Microcapsules derived from plant-based spores or pollen provide a robust platform for a diverse range of microencapsulation applications. Sporopollenin exine capsules (SECs) are obtained when spores or pollen are processed so as to remove the internal sporoplasmic contents. The resulting hollow microcapsules exhibit a high degree of micromeritic uniformity and retain intricate microstructural features related to the particular plant species. Herein, we demonstrate a streamlined process for the production of SECs from Lycopodium clavatum spores and for the loading of hydrophilic compounds into these SECs. The current SEC isolation procedure has been recently optimized to significantly reduce the processing requirements which are conventionally used in SEC isolation, and to ensure the production of intact microcapsules. Natural L. clavatum spores are defatted with acetone, treated with phosphoric acid, and extensively washed to remove sporoplasmic contents. After acetone defatting, a single processing step using 85% phosphoric acid has been shown to remove all sporoplasmic contents. By limiting the acid processing time to 30 hr, it is possible to isolate clean SECs and avoid SEC fracturing, which has been shown to occur with prolonged processing time. Extensive washing with water, dilute acids, dilute bases, and solvents ensures that all sporoplasmic material and chemical residues are adequately removed. The vacuum loading technique is utilized to load a model protein (Bovine Serum Albumin) as a representative hydrophilic compound. Vacuum loading provides a simple technique to load various compounds without the need for harsh solvents or undesirable chemicals which are often required in other microencapsulation protocols. Based on these isolation and loading protocols, SECs provide a promising material for use in a diverse range of microencapsulation applications, such as, therapeutics, foods, cosmetics, and personal care products.

Melt Electrospinning Writing of Three-dimensional Poly(&#949;-caprolactone) Scaffolds with Controllable Morphologies for Tissue Engineering Applications

This tutorial reflects on the fundamental principles and guidelines for electrospinning writing with polymer melts, an additive manufacturing technology with great potential for biomedical applications. The technique facilitates the direct deposition of biocompatible polymer fibers to fabricate well-ordered scaffolds in the sub-micron to micro scale range. The establishment of a stable, viscoelastic, polymer jet between a spinneret and a collector is achieved using an applied voltage and can be direct-written. A significant benefit of a typical porous scaffold is a high surface-to-volume ratio which provides increased effective adhesion sites for cell attachment and growth. Controlling the printing process by fine-tuning the system parameters enables high reproducibility in the quality of the printed scaffolds. It also provides a flexible manufacturing platform for users to tailor the morphological structures of the scaffolds to their specific requirements. For this purpose, we present a protocol to obtain different fiber diameters using melt electrospinning writing (MEW) with a guided amendment of the parameters, including flow rate, voltage and collection speed. Furthermore, we demonstrate how to optimize the jet, discuss often experienced technical challenges, explain troubleshooting techniques and showcase a wide range of printable scaffold architectures.

This protocol serves as a comprehensive guideline to fabricate scaffolds via electrospinning with polymer melts in a direct writing mode. We systematically outline the process and define the appropriate parameter settings for achieving targeted scaffold architectures.

Three-dimensional Printing of Thermoplastic Materials to Create Automated Syringe Pumps with Feedback Control for Microfluidic Applications

Microfluidics has become a critical tool in research across the biological, chemical, and physical sciences. One important component of microfluidic experimentation is a stable fluid handling system capable of accurately providing an inlet flow rate or inlet pressure. Here, we have developed a syringe pump system capable of controlling and regulating the inlet fluid pressure delivered to a microfluidic device. This system was designed using low-cost materials and additive manufacturing principles, leveraging three-dimensional (3D) printing of thermoplastic materials and off-the-shelf components whenever possible. This system is composed of three main components: a syringe pump, a pressure transducer, and a programmable microcontroller. Within this paper, we detail a set of protocols for fabricating, assembling, and programming this syringe pump system. Furthermore, we have included representative results that demonstrate high-fidelity, feedback control of inlet pressure using this system. We expect this protocol will allow researchers to fabricate low-cost syringe pump systems, lowering the entry barrier for the use of microfluidics in biomedical, chemical, and materials research.

Here we present a protocol to construct a pressure-controlled syringe pump to be used in microfluidic applications. This syringe pump is made from an&#160;additively manufactured body, off-the-shelf hardware, and open-source electronics. The resulting system is low-cost, straightforward to build, and delivers well-regulated fluid flow to enable rapid microfluidic research.

Magnetic-, Acoustic-, and Optical-Triple-Responsive Microbubbles for Magnetic Hyperthermia and Pothotothermal Combination Cancer Therapy

The precision delivery of anti-cancer agents which aim for targeted and deep-penetrated delivery as well as a controlled release at the tumor site has been challenged. Here, we fabricate iron oxide nanoparticle shelled microbubbles (NSMs) through self-assembly, synergizing magnetic, acoustic, and optical responsiveness in one nanotherapeutic platform. Iron oxide nanoparticles serve as both magnetic and photothermal agents. Once intravenously injected, NSMs can be magnetically guided to the tumor site. Ultrasound triggers the release of iron oxide nanoparticles, facilitating the penetration of nanoparticles deep into the tumor due to the cavitation effect of microbubbles. Thereafter, magnetic hyperthermia and photothermal therapy can be performed on the tumor for combinational cancer therapy, a solution for cancer resistance due to the tumor heterogeneity. In this protocol, the synthesis and characterization of NSMs including structural, chemical, magnetic and acoustic properties were performed. In addition, the anti-cancer efficacy by thermal therapy was investigated using in vitro cell cultures. The proposed delivery strategy and combination therapy holds great promise in cancer treatment to improve both delivery and anticancer efficacies.
