Nové Antibakteriální kolagenové nosiče pro regenerativní medicínu / Novel Antibacterial Collagen Scaffolds for Regenerative MedicineDorazilová, Jana January 2018 (has links)
Tato diplomová práce se zabývá charakterizací 3D porézních kolagenových pěn obsahující vybraná antibakteriální činidla. V literární části jsou shrnuty dosavadní poznatky o biomateriálech a biopolymerech se zaměřením na kolagen a chitosan. Dále jsou v ní popsány antibakteriálních vlastnosti nanočástic v kontextu s využitím selenových nanočástic jako antibakteriální činidla. Pro potřeby této práce byla vybrána antibakteriální aditiva dvojího typu – biopolymerní chitosan a selenové nanočástice. 3D porézní struktury bylo dosaženo metodou lyofilizace. Mechanické vlastnosti biopolymerní matrice byly podpořeny síťováním v prostředí chemického síťovadla na bázi karbodiimidu. K charakterizaci připravených kolagenových pěn byly použity především fyzikálně chemické metody. Na analýzu mikrostruktury a velikosti pórů, vizualizaci nanočástic a jejich distribuci v testovaných materiálech byla využita rastrovací elektronová mikroskopie (SEM) spolu s energiově disperzní analýzou (EDX). Parametry jako je porozita, botnací poměr, úbytek hmotnosti při degradaci ve vodném prostředí a v prostředí enzymů byly zjištěny vhodnými gravimetrickými metodami. Ovlivnění chemické struktury kolagenové matrice před a po přidání antibakteriálních aditiv bylo sledováno za pomocí metody zeslabeného úplného odrazu infračervené spektroskopie s Fourierovou transformací (ATR FTIR). Procentuální uvolnění nanočástic z testovaných vzorků bylo sledováno pomocí optické emisní spektroskopie s indukčně vázanou plazmou (ICP OES). K zhodnocení antibakteriálních vlastností testovaných materiálů byly použity především difúzní agarová disková metoda a makrodiluční bujónová metoda. Provedeným výzkumem jsme zjistili vliv přídavku antibakteriálních činidel na strukturu a některé vlastnosti 3D kolagenových matric. Výsledky antibakteriálních testů ukázaly pozitivní vliv chitosanu i selenových nanočástic na inhibici růstu bakterií v závislosti na koncentraci přidaných aditiv. Navržené materiály mohou být využity pro biomedicínské aplikace především v oblastech zabývající se regenerací měkkých tkání.

Efeito da liofilização sobre a estrutura e a atividade enzimática da L-asparaginase de Escherichia coli / Effect of freeze-drying on the structure and the enzymatic activity of the L-asparaginase de Escherichia coliSilva, Regiane da 15 August 2002 (has links)
As L-asparaginases bacterianas (L-asparaginase amidohidrolase, E.C.3.S.1.1) são enzimas de alto valor terapêutico devido ao seu uso no tratamento de leucemia linfocítica aguda. A L-asparaginase da Escherichia coli por ser uma enzima periplásmica com alta afinidade, é particularmente efetiva em certas terapias de câncer infantil. Muitos agentes terapêuticos recentes são proteínas e peptídeos que surgiram do design molecular de drogas e tecnologia de DNA recombinante. Numerosos estudos têm demonstrado que aditivos preservam a estrutura e a atividade biológica de cada molécula destas proteínas.

O objetivo do presente trabalho é investigar detalhadamente o efeito da liofilização sobre a estrutura e a atividade enzimática da L-asparaginase, tanto em células íntegras de Escherichia coli, como na enzima purificada. Até recentemente a maneira para se avaliar o comportamento de um aditivo e o comportamento da água na estabilização de uma proteína durante a liofilização consistia na medida dos parâmetros de atividade após a reidratação, porém atualmente modernas técnicas de Ressonância Magnética Nuclear (RMN) de baixa resolução são utilizadas para se entender o comportamento da água nas interações com proteínas.

Protein stability : impact of formulation excipients and manufacturing processes in protein-based pharmaceuticalsDarkwah, Joseph January 2017 (has links)
Presently, over 300 proteins or peptide based therapeutic medicines have been approved by the FDA owing to advances in protein engineering and technology. However, majority of these protein-based medications are unstable or have limited shelf life when in aqueous form. During pre-formulation and manufacturing, various technological processes including mixing, dissolving, filling (through pipes) can produce strong mechanical stresses on proteins. These stresses may cause the protein molecule to unfold, denature or aggregate. To improve stability upon formulation, they may be manufactured as freeze dried cakes that requires reconstitution with a buffer or water prior to administration. Although it has been successful in improving the stability of protein-based formulations, the freeze drying process itself also contributes to protein aggregation. This process introduces other stresses such as freezing, thawing and drying. In addition to these stresses, the agitation processes used during reconstitution may also destabilize the protein’s native structure. Two key processes used in preparation of protein based formulations were studied in this work; mechanical agitation and freeze drying. The aim of this project was to explore the aggregation of proteins that occur due to the various technological processes typical in the production of protein based formulations. The project has two parts that relates to liquid and solid formulations. In the first part, the effect of different methods of mechanical agitations on BSA protein was investigated. In the second part, the focus was on the effect of formulation (i.e. the application of amino acids) on aggregation of protein (BSA) in freeze dried formulations. Arginine and lysine were added individually into protein-based freeze-dried formulation to study their potential of improving the stability of the proteins during manufacturing, storage and reconstitution. In the formulation development, additional excipients were added to prevent moisture uptake due to the hygroscopic properties of the amino acids and to provide lyo- and cryo- protection for the protein molecule during freeze drying. Without further purification, BSA solutions prepared by using sonication, low shear rotor mixer or high shear tube/pipe mixing were studied using dynamic light scattering (DLS). Thioflavin T assay and turbidimetry analysis were used as complementary studies. In protein-based freeze dried formulations, at accelerated storage conditions, the presence of aggregates were studied in samples containing arginine or lysine using ThT assay and turbidimetry analysis. Characterisation of the freeze dried cakes was performed relative to their moisture sorption, cake shrinkage, mechanical properties and morphology using various analytical techniques. iv In the BSA solution studies, particle size analysis indicated two distributions for non-agitated BSA solution that corresponds to the average particle sizes of BSA molecules and their aggregates. Under mechanical stresses (all types), the intensity of distribution centered ≈ 7.8 nm reduces and broadens as the agitation time increases, indicating a reduction in the amount of “free” BSA macromolecules. The second distribution, as a result of increasing agitation time or shear intensity, reveals a significant shift towards larger sizes, or even splits into two particle size populations. These particle size growths reflect the formation of aggregates due to intensive collisions and, as a result, partial unfolding followed by hydrophobic interactions of exposed non-polar amino acids. UV spectra showed that aggregation in both low shear and mechanical vibration agitations were lower compared to the high shear stress. When compared to non-agitated BSA solution, ThT assay recorded ≈15 times higher fluorescence emission from the high shear samples, ≈2 times fluorescence emission from low shear and ≈6 times fluorescence emission from mechanical vibrations. Thus all the three agitation methods showed a good correlation between the results. The second part of this project was performed in three stages. In the initial 2 stages, 2- and 3-excipients component system were investigated to develop an optimal preliminary formulations which will be used in the final protein based 4-components formulations. From the 1st stage (ArgHCl/LysHCl + sugar/polyol), among 4 tested excipients (polyol and sugar), mannitol was observed to have resisted moisture uptake by the highly hygroscopic ArgHCl/LysHCl amino acids. However, mannitol is considered a good cryoprotector but has poor lyoprotection properties. Therefore, in the following stage, a 3rd excipient (in a 3-excipients component system) sucrose or trehalose, was introduced into the formulation. The formulation was made up of 20% ArgHCl (LysHCl), and various ratios of mannitol and sugar were explored. The criteria for selecting the best systems were based on ideal physicochemical properties i.e. moisture uptake, shrinkage, mechanical properties, matrix structure and appearance, and thermal properties. The final stage was the formulation of a 4-components system comprising the three excipients and combinations selected from the stage 2 studies, and the addition of BSA as the model protein. To study aggregation in this system, a freeze dried 4-components excipient/protein system was reconstituted and incubated at accelerated storage conditions over time. Fluorescence spectroscopy and turbidimetry were used to study aggregation of proteins, moisture uptake kinetics with gravimetric balance, and thermal analytical techniques were used to characterise the freeze dried cakes with and without BSA protein. This study represented a systematic analysis of aggregation of proteins in both liquid and solid formulations. Some of the novel aspects of this study include: v 1. The new experimental results obtained for aggregation of proteins in solution subjected to mechanical agitations. The high shear stress created by syringe agitation, simulated the real situation in post manufacturing process during filling through narrow pipes, and has been shown here to strongly affect the aggregation of protein macromolecules. 2. The development of a methodical approach for optimization of multi component (up to 4 excipients) protein based formulations. 3. The unexpected non-linear behavior of the physicochemical properties of the 3-excipients component system as a function of composition. To the best of my knowledge, this novel aspect has not been previously reported in literature. 4. Application of amino acid in protein based formulations has shown the inhibition of aggregation of BSA, with the highest effect observed with ArgHCl. The results of this study coincide with the conclusions published previously for aggregation of proteins in solution.

Développement de biomatériaux poreux pour la régénération osseuse : Biomatériaux biphasiques à base de phosphate tricalcique béta (β-TCP) / Development of porous biomaterials for bone regenerationArbez, Baptiste 17 December 2018 (has links)
Avec plus de 2 millions d’interventions chirurgicales par an dans le monde, les actes de chirurgie osseuse sont les plus fréquents, ce qui pousse les entreprises du secteur des biomatériaux pour la régénération osseuse à investir massivement pour sans cesse améliorer leurs produits. Cette thèse est issue d’un contrat CIFRE effectué avec l’entreprise Kasios afin de l’aider dans le développement de céramiques et polymères poreux principalement pour des applications en chirurgie maxillo-faciale. Les travaux réalisés s’articulent autour du développement de biomatériaux biphasiques à base de phosphate tricalcique béta (β-TCP). En premier lieu, des microfibres de polycaprolactone (PCL) incorporant des particules élémentaires de β-TCP ont été fabriquées par électrospinning. Les principales applications des fibres concernent la régénération osseuse guidée pour la préservation alvéolaire ou les opérations de relevés de sinus. L’électrospinning des fibres a utilisé des solvants ne présentant pas de toxicité aiguë. Les fibres ont formé des membranes manipulables qui peuvent être facilement découpées et suturées même en environnement humide. Les études in vitro n’ont révélé aucune cytotoxicité et les membranes ont permis la prolifération de cellules ostéoblastiques. La seconde étude a permis la fabrication d’éponges de gélatine et d’acide hyaluronique saturées ou recouvertes en surface de granules de β-TCP pour le comblement alvéolaire. Les éponges étaient facilement façonnables pour correspondre à l’alvéole du patient. Le chirurgien pourrait alors bénéficier de la nature biphasique du dispositif médical afin de faciliter l’implantation et éviter la manipulation séparée des éponges et des granules. L’utilisation des éponges permettrait par ailleurs d’assurer un positionnement idéal des granules pour la cicatrisation alvéolaire. La troisième étude, plus fondamentale, porte sur l’interaction des cellules osseuses avec le β-TCP et sa résorption. Des études de biomécanique et de biodégradation ainsi que de biodissolution ont également été réalisées sur des biomatériaux produits par l’entreprise. / With more than 2 million surgeries per year, bone tissue is one of the most concerned tissues and biomaterial companies have developed massive investments to continually improve bone regeneration.This thesis was conducted during a CIFRE contract (a tripartite contract linking a student, a university and acompany) and was done in association with the company Kasios for the development of new porous polymers and ceramics. This thesis was specifically centered in the development of biphasic biomaterials based upon beta tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP). First, polycaprolacton (PCL) microfibers incorporating β-TCP elementary particles were produced using electrospinning. These fibers were developed to provide membranes for guided bone regeneration usable in alveolar preservation and sinus lifting. Electrospinning of the fibers did not require any high toxicity solvent. Our fibers formed membranes that could easily be handled, cut and sutured in dry and wet environment. In vitrocytotoxicity studies confirmed the non-toxic nature of the material and showed the ability of the membranes to encourage survival and proliferation of osteoblastic cells. Secondly, freeze-dried gelatin and hyaluronicacid sponges saturated or embedded with β-TCP granules were developed for alveolar filling. Theses ponges could easily be shaped to fit the patient’s dental socket. The biphasic nature of the sponges could make the implantation easier and faster by avoiding surgeons to handle separately the granules and the sponges. This medical device could also insure a correct and optimal positioning of the granules for the patient healing. Lastly, a fundamental study was conducted on resorption of β-TCP and the interaction between bone cells and the biomaterial. Biomechanical and biodegradation/biodissolution studies were also done on different types of biomaterials produced by the company.

Contribution à l'étude de la résistance au séchage des bactéries lactiques (lyophilisation)/Contribution to the study of resistance to drying of lactic acid bacteria (lyophilization)Coulibaly, Ibourahema 08 October 2010 (has links)

Résumé
Lutilisation de souches lactiques, à léchelle industrielle, nécessite une sélection sur
base des propriétés technologiques, physiologiques et biochimiques, ainsi que la mise en
oeuvre de procédés biotechnologiques bien maîtrisés pour leur production et leur
conservation. A cet effet, le séchage est une étape importante. Sous forme sèche, le
produit est plus facilement manipulable. Cependant au cours du séchage, les microorganismes
subissent un stress thermique et/ou osmotique qui se traduit par une perte de
viabilité pendant le stockage. Lutilisation dagents protecteurs au cours du stockage a
permis dobtenir une bonne viabilité. En effet, les bactéries sont soumises pendant la
lyophilisation et au cours du stockage à une mortalité liée en grande partie à loxydation
des acides gras membranaires. Lanalyse de ces acides au cours des différents procédés de
fabrication et de stockage permet de noter la présence des hydroperoxydes. Cette
oxydation est engendrée par laction de loxygène sur les acides gras polyinsaturés
principalement lacide linoléique (C18:2) et linolénique (C18:3) ce qui engendre la formation
des hydroperoxydes : acide hydroperoxyoctadecadienoique (HPOD) et acide hydroperoxyoctadecatrienoique
(HPOT) méthylés ou non en position 13- et 9-. Une analyse des
composés secondaires émanant des poudres de bactéries lactiques indique la présence de
composés volatils. Parmi ceux-ci, apparaissent des molécules volatiles (principalement des
aldéhydes), qui modifient la flaveur dorigine des corps gras. Les études menées au niveau
des constituants phospholipidiques de la membrane montrent un lien entre le degré
doxydation et la mortalité cellulaire au cours du stockage. Les différents phospholipides
déterminés au nombre de sept (7) subissent tous cette oxydation à des degrés divers.
Lutilisation dantioxydant au cours du stockage permet dinhiber les phénomènes de
peroxydation des lipides et permet également de maintenir la valeur nutritionnelle (teneur
en AGPI, réduction des dérivés peroxydés nocifs) du produit.

Summary
The use of lactic strains in industrial scale requires selection on the basis of
technological, physiological and biochemical properties, as the implementation of
biotechnological processes under control for their production and conservation. At this
effect drying process is an important step. In dry form, the product is more easily
manipulated. However during the drying process, microorganisms undergo heat stress
and/or osmotic resulting in a loss of viability during storage. The use of protective agents
during storage has resulted in a good viability. In fact, the bacteria are subjected during
lyophilization and during storage to a mortality largely oxidation the membrane fatty
acids. The analysis of these acids during the process helps to note the presence of
hydroperoxydes which are the cause of this mortality. This oxidation is caused by the
action of oxygen on polyunsaturated acids linoleic acid (C18:2) and linolenic (C18:3) mostly,
causing the formation of hydroperoxydes: hydroperoxyoctadecadienoic acid (HPOD) and
hydroperoxyoctadeca-trienoic acid (HPOT) at position 13 - and 9 - methyl or not. An
analysis of secondary compounds from the powders indicates the presence of birds.
These products appear volatile compounds (mainly aldehydes), hydrocarbons, alcohols,
acids etc., which altered the original flavour of fat. Studies in phospholipids constituents
of the membrane show a link between the degree of oxidation and cell death during
storage. The various phospholipids determined, seven (7) are all undergo this oxidation to
various degrees. The use of antioxidants during storage can inhibit the process of lipid
peroxydation and helps also to maintain the nutritional value (PUFA content, reduction
of harmful peroxide-derived) product.

Aislamiento, identificación y conservación de cultivos de bacterias lácticas antagonistas de microbiota contaminante de sangre de mataderoZamora Rodríguez, Lucero M. 20 November 2003 (has links)
La sangre obtenida en el matadero es un producto altamente contaminado que requiere un procesamiento inmediato si se pretende utilizarla como insumo alimentario en la fabricación de productos destinados al consumo humano. Si bien es cierto que los sistemas de higienización podrían ser muy eficientes desde el punto de vista de calidad microbiológica, su instalación en la línea de sacrificio comportaría muchas dificultades desde el punto de vista técnico y en algún caso sería muy costoso. La bioconservación podría ser una alternativa para mejorar la calidad microbiológica de la sangre, alargar su vida útil y reducir las posibilidades de procesamiento inmediato. El presente estudio nos permitiría formular la posibilidad de aplicar la bioconservación en sangre de cerdo procedente de matadero industrial, utilizando bacterias ácido lácticas (BAL) como cultivo bioprotector, para lo cual se aislaron cepas de BAL autóctonas y se confeccionaron dos colecciones una de BAL mesófilas y otra de psicrótrofas.Se evaluó el potencial antagonista de la colección de BAL mesófilas y psicrótrofas a 30ºC y a 15ºC respectivamente frente a bacterias contaminantes habituales de este subproducto. Las BAL que demostraron antagonismo en placa (7,1% a 30ºC y 11% a 15ºC) fueron seleccionadas para evaluar el potencial antagonista en sangre, donde el efecto inhibitorio se vio favorecido por la adición de un 2% glucosa. S.aureus y P. fluorescens fueron los indicadores más inhibidos por las cepas mesófilas, en algunos casos con reducciones superiores a 7 unidades logarítmicas. En condiciones psicrótrofas la bacteria más sensible a la presencia de BAL fue Bacillus sp., donde 8 de las 11 BAL ensayadas permitieron reducciones superiores a 4 logs y 1cepa incluso superiores a 7 logs; se obtuvieron reducciones máximas de 3 logs de E.coli y Pseudomonas fue inhibida por todas las BAL ensayadas, en algún caso con reducciones superiores a 5 logs.Las 5 que cepas que presentaron el espectro de inhibición más amplio en condiciones mesófilas y 7 en condiciones psicrótrofas frente a los microorganismos indicadores contaminantes de sangre de matadero se identificaron mediante técnicas moleculares por comparación de la secuencias correspondientes al gen que codifica la síntesis de 16S ARNr (16S ADNr) con las secuencias publicadas en las bases de datos. De las 7 cepas antagonistas en condiciones psicrótrofas 5 se identificaron como Lactococcus garvieae y 2 como Enterococcus malodoratus/gilvius raffinosus. Todas las BAL con potencial antagonista en condiciones mesófilas pertenecían al género Lactobacillus, 3 de elllas se identificaron como Lactobacillus murinus/animalis y una se identificó como Lactobacillus reuteri. TA20 que tuvo un gran espectro de inhibición a ambas temperaturas se identificó como Lactococcus garvieae.En este estudio se evaluaron tres métodos de conservación a largo plazo de las cepas que mostraron potencial antagonista. Se comparó la liofilización, la atomización frente a la congelación a -80ºC que era método que se había utilizado hasta el momento para conservar ambas colecciones de BAL. En general, los métodos de deshidratación (atomización y liofilización) y mantenimiento en refrigeración a 5ºC de los cultivos deshidratados se han mostrado más eficaces que la congelación. / Blood from slaughtered animals is a product with a high contamination level that requires an immediately processing after collection if the object is to use it as a food ingredient destined to human consumption. Nevertheless, even if hygienic collection systems used in abattoirs were be efficient enough to control the microbiological quality, their installation in the slaughtered line would be technically complicate and in some case would be so expensive.Bioconservation is an alternative to improve microbiological quality, to extend its shelf life and reducing the possibility of immediate processing after collection.The present study would permit us to formulate the possibility to applicate bioconservation in porcine blood from industrial abattoirs, using lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains as biopreservative cultures. So a mesophylic and a psicrotrophyc LAB strains collections were confectioned.The antagonistic capacity toward usual contaminant bacteria in blood of the mesophylic and psicrotrophyc collections at 30ºC and 15ºC respectively were investigated. The LAB that demonstrated the widest inhibitory spectrum in agar plate evaluation (7,1% at 30ºC and 11% at 15ºC) were screened in order to evaluate their inhibitory activity in blood, where was observed that the addition of glucose at 2% had a positive effect in the inhibitory levels. The most sensible indicators to the mesophylic LAB were S. aureus and P. fluorescens. In some cases it was obtained reductions of 7 logarithmic units. In psicotrophic conditions the most sensible bacteria to LAB presence was Bacillus spp. where 8 of the 11 strains assayed inhibited in more than 4 logarithmic units and 1 of them inhibited this indicator in 7 logarithmic units..It was obtained maxim reductions of 3 logs versus E. coli. P. fluorescens was inhibited by all the assayed strains and in some case it was obtained reductions superior to 5 logs.The 5 mesophylic and 7 psictrophyc strains that demonstrated the widest inhibitory spectrum toward the indicators microorganisms from abattoir blood were identified using molecular techniques though comparison of the gene sequences that codify the synthesis of 16S RNAr (16S DNAr) with the sequences in the data base.5 from the 7 strains with antagonistic capacity in psicotrophyc conditions were identified like Lactococcus garvieae and the other two strains were identified like Enterococcus malodoratus/gilvius/raffinosus. All the antagonistic LAB in mesophylic conditions belonged to genus Lactobacillus, 3 of them were identified like Lactobacillus murinus/animalis and one of them as Lactobacillus reuteri. TA20 that had a widest spectrum at both assay temperatures was identified as Lactococcus garvieae.In this study there were evaluated three methods of conservation of cultures belonged to those LAB that demonstrated antagonistic capacity. It was compared freeze-drying, spray drying against freezing at -80ºC, that is the method used to conserve both LAB collections. Generally, the dehydration methods (freeze-drying and spray drying) and maintaining in refrigeration at 5ºC of dehydrated cultures showed to be better than freezing at -80ºC.

DESENVOLVIMENTO TECNOLÓGICO DE SUSPENSÕES E LIOFILIZADOS DE NANOCÁPSULAS POLIMÉRICAS PARA A VEICULAÇÃO DO NEUROPROTETOR IDEBENONA / TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT OF POLYMERIC NANOCAPSULES SUSPENSIONS AND FREEZE-DRIED POWDERS FOR RELEASE OF NEUROPROTECTIVE IDEBENONEBrendle, Martina Gehrke 30 October 2013 (has links)
Idebenone is an antioxidant, a synthetic derivative of coenzyme Q10, with several applications, such as neuroprotection. However, this drug has low solubility in water, besides is irritant substance and has chemical instability. Hence, idebenone-loaded nano-organized systems have been developed, such as polymeric nanocapsules (NC). Vegetable oils containing antioxidants such as coconut oil and palm oil can be interesting for the composition of these particles. In this way, the aim of this work was to develop NC suspensions containing different oils as core (palm, coconut or medium chain triglycerides) for delivery of neuroprotective agent idebenone in order to compare the behavior of these systems concerning physico-chemical stability, photostability, controlled release, and conversion to redispersible solid dosage forms (lyophilized products). The nanocapsules were prepared by interfacial deposition of preformed polymer. As the results, it was possible to prepare poly(Ɛ-caprolactone) NC suspensions and palm oil (PO/PCL) or Eudragit® RS100 and coconut oil (OC/EUD) containing idebenone (1.0 mg/mL) with appropriate physico-chemical characteristics. Parameters such as the proportion of aqueous phase/organic phase, type of both surfactant (low HLB) and polymer influenced the optimization of these systems. For comparison, corresponding formulations were prepared with medium chain triglycerides (TCM/PCL or TCM/EUD), using the same conditions. The suspensions had an average diameter between 166 and 216nm, low polydispersity index (0.085 to 0.142), positive or negative zeta potential, depending on the characteristics of the polymer, and high encapsulation efficiency. The maintenance of average particle diameter and low polydispersity index have be verified during stability study (room temperature and exposed or not to light) for 75 days. However, the idebenone content significantly decreased in this period, with influence on the type of polymer. Thereafter, photostability study has shown that the suspensions NC OP/PCL (UVC/UVA) and TCM/PCL (UVA) were able to significantly reduce the degradation of idebenone (content: 53,7-76,1%) compared to an aqueous micellar (content: 31,2-63,1%) dispersion containing the drug. In addition, these systems were able to promoting drug controlled release (t1/2 26 h), without burst effect, showing monoexponential profile (t1/2< 3.0 h for free drug). The lyophilization of suspensions, employing trehalose as soluble carbohydrate, resulted in suitable and redispersible products (content of 96-100%, less than 3.6% moisture; 0.8-1.2 index), presenting several spherical structures, including in colloidal range, featuring the presence of NC in these dried products. In the stability study (room temperature/protection from light and moisture), it was observed that the lyophilized products were able to delay or decrease the degradation of idebenone compared to suspensions of origin, regardless of the both type of polymer (PCL/EUD) and oil (OP/OC/TCM). In conclusion, the developed systems are promising for the controlled release of neuroprotective drug idebenone. / A idebenona é um antioxidante, derivado sintético da coenzima Q10, com várias aplicações, como em neuroproteção. No entanto, este fármaco possui baixa solubilidade em água, potencial irritativo e instabilidade química, fato que tem despertado o interesse em sua associação a sistemas nano-organizados. Dentre estes, destacam-se as nanocápsulas poliméricas (NC). Óleos vegetais, contendo compostos antioxidantes, como óleo de coco e de palma, podem ser interessantes para a composição destas partículas. Neste sentido, o objetivo deste trabalho foi desenvolver suspensões de NC contendo diferentes óleos como núcleo (palma, coco ou triglicerídeos de cadeia média), almejando à veiculação do neuroprotetor idebenona, de forma a comparar o comportamento dos sistemas quanto à estabilidade físico-química, fotoestabilidade, controle de liberação, além da conversão em formas farmacêuticas sólidas redispersíveis (liofilizados). As NC foram preparadas pelo método de deposição interfacial de polímero pré-formado. Conforme os resultados, foi possível preparar suspensões de NC de poli(ε-caprolactona) e óleo de palma (OP/PCL) ou de Eudragit® RS100 e óleo de coco (OC/EUD), contendo idebenona (1,0 mg/mL), com características físico-químicas adequadas, sendo que fatores como proporção das fases aquosa/orgânica, tipo de tensoativo de baixo EHL e de polímero influenciaram a otimização dos sistemas. Para fins comparativos, formulações correspondentes foram preparadas com triglicerídeos de cadeia média (TCM/PCL ou TCM/EUD), empregando as mesmas condições. As suspensões apresentaram diâmetros médios entre 166 e 216 nm, baixos índices de polidispersão (0,085-0,142), potencial zeta positivo ou negativo, dependendo das características do polímero e elevada eficiência de encapsulamento. Quando estas suspensões foram submetidas a estudo de estabilidade, à temperatura ambiente e expostas ou não à luz, durante 75 dias, verificou-se manutenção dos diâmetros médios de partículas e baixos índices de polidispersão. Entretanto, o teor de idebenona decaiu significativamente neste período, com influência significativa do tipo de polímero. Após, estudo de fotoestabilidade demonstrou que as suspensões de NC OP/PCL (UVC/UVA) e TCM/PCL (UVA) foram capazes de reduzir significativamente a degradação da idebenona (teor remanescente: 53,7-76,1%) em comparação a uma dispersão micelar aquosa contendo o fármaco (teor remanescente: 31,2-63,1%), além de promoverem liberação controlada da mesma (t1/2 26 h), sem efeito burst, com perfil ajustado ao modelo monoexponencial (t1/2<3,0 h para fármaco livre). A liofilização das suspensões, empregando trealose, um carboidrato solúvel, resultou em produtos adequados (teor entre 96-100 %; umidade inferior a 3,6 %), redispersíveis (índice de ressuspensão entre 0,8-1,2) e com a presença de inúmeras estruturas esféricas, inclusive na faixa coloidal, caracterizando a presença das NC nestes produtos secos. No estudo de estabilidade (temperatura ambiente/proteção da luz e da umidade), observou-se que os produtos liofilizados foram capazes de retardar ou diminuir significativamente a degradação da idebenona em comparação às suspensões de origem, independentemente do tipo de polímero (PCL/EUD) e de óleo (OP/OC/TCM). Sendo assim, os sistemas desenvolvidos são promissores para a liberação controlada do neuroprotetor idebenona.

Previous issue date: 2012-03-30 / Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior / Brazil, one of the largest agricultural producers in the world, has managed in recent years to significantly improve its production. However, in response to this advance in the agro-industrial sector, the generation of agro-industrial residues has also increased. New technological alternatives have to be implemented in order to bring economic and rational use of this material and drying is one of the possible choices. Considering the great importance that bioactive compounds present for food science and technology, this research aims to evaluate the air-drying process of acerola residue in a tray convective drier under controlled temperature (60, 70 e 80?C), air velocity (4.0, 5.0 e 6.0 m/s) and material width (0.5, 0.62 e 0.75 cm) by applying an experimental planning 23 + 3. Based on that, the impact on physical-chemical characteristics, color, bioactive compounds concentration and antioxidant activity of dried acerola waste was evaluated, having the in natura and freeze dried waste as control groups. Dried acerola residue presented natural pigments, mainly carotenoids (143.68 - 68.29 mg/g) and anthocyanins (290.92 - 90.11 mg/100 g), which explain the red and yellow instrumental color parameters observed. The acerola residue powder is also rich in phenolic compounds (3261.11 -2692.60 mgGAEeq/100g), proanthocyanidins (61.33-58.46 eq/100g), ascorbic acid (389.44 739.29 mg/100 g) and DPPH antioxidant activity (20.91 24.72 ?g Trolox eq/g). Results show decreased concentration of phenolic compounds, anthocyanins, carotenoids, proanthocyanidins and ascorbic acid caused by the air-drying process. However, even after the observed drying losses, the acerola residue powder can be considered a high value food ingredient, considering the high bioactive compounds concentration found in the final product, as well as the colorimetric characterization and microbiological stability of the dried powder / O Brasil, um dos maiores produtores agr?colas atuais, tem conseguido aumentar sua produ??o agroindustrial nos ?ltimos anos. Em conseq??ncia a isso a gera??o de res?duos tamb?m aumentou. Dessa forma, torna-se relevante a pesquisa de alternativas de uso racional e econ?mico para esse tipo de mat?ria prima, incluindo opera??es unit?rias de transforma??o como a secagem. Diante da import?ncia que os compostos bioativos apresentam para a ?rea de ci?ncia e tecnologia de alimentos, esta pesquisa objetivou avaliar a secagem do res?duo agroindustrial da acerola em secador convectivo de bandejas sob condi??es controladas de temperatura de trabalho (60; 70 e 80?C), velocidade do ar (4,0; 5,0 e 6,0 m/s) e espessura do material (0,5; 0,62 e 0,75 cm), mediante aplica??o de planejamento experimental do tipo fatorial 23 + 3 pontos centrais. A partir disso, o impacto da secagem sobre as caracter?sticas f?sico-qu?micas, cor, concentra??o de compostos bioativos selecionados e atividade antioxidante do res?duo da acerola s?o abordados, tomando os res?duos in natura e liofilizado como grupos-controle. Os p?s do res?duo desidratado de acerola apresentaram presen?a de pigmentos naturais, com colora??o vermelha e amarela, sobretudo caroten?ides (143,68 a 68,29 mg/g), antocianinas (290,92 a 90,11 mg/100 g), al?m de elevado teor de compostos fen?licos (3261,11 a 2692,60 mg GAE eq/100 g amostra), proantocianidinas (61,33 a 58,46 eq/100 g amostra) e ?cido asc?rbico (389,44 a 739,29 mg/100 g), bem como expressiva atividade antioxidante obtida pelo m?todo DPPH (20,91 a 24,72 ?g Trolox eq/g amostra). Os dados experimentais mostraram diminui??o da concentra??o de compostos fen?licos, antocianinas, caroten?ides, proantocianidinas e ?cido asc?rbico ocasionada pela secagem nas condi??es estudadas. No entanto, a concentra??o final desses compostos detectada no produto desidratado, bem como a caracteriza??o colorim?trica e a estabilidade microbiol?gica alcan?ada, caracteriza o p? do res?duo de acerola como ingrediente com elevado potencial bioativo

Élaboration d'un biomatériau poreux à base d'une matrice vitreuse induisant un phénomène d'ostéoconduction / Elaboration of a porous biomaterial based on glass matrix inducing a phenomenon of osteoconductionWers, Éric 24 October 2014 (has links)
Ce travail de thèse concerne les verres bioactifs purs et dopés pour des applications en tant que biomatériaux en site osseux. Ils sont synthétisés par fusion dans le système SiO₂-CaO-Na₂O-P₂O₅. Quatre éléments métalliques (Zn, Ti, Cu et Ag), présentant des caractéristiques chimiques et physiologiques intéressantes, ont été introduits dans la matrice vitreuse. Leur réactivité chimique et leur cytotoxicité ont été évalués lors de tests in vitro. L'introduction de ces éléments métalliques influe sur les caractéristiques thermiques des verres ainsi que sur la dissolution de la matrice vitreuse, la cinétique et la cristallisation de la couche d'hydroxyapatite. Une bonne prolifération cellulaire a été mise en évidence. En parallèle, une méthode de synthèse d'une vitrocéramique, présentant une microporosité, a été développée par réaction entre TiN et ZnO. Des essais in vitro ont montré un caractère bioactif après 60 jours d'immersion et une absence de cytotoxicité. Ce biomatériau a ensuite été implanté au niveau de la diaphyse fémorale de lapins. Différentes études structurales ont montré la résorption progressive du biomatériau jusqu'à 6 mois d'implantation. Des scaffolds chitosan / verre bioactif ont également été synthétisés et obtenus par lyophilisation. Ils ont été étudiés lors d'essais in vitro. Ils ont servi de support pour la vectorisation de gentamicine. Les résultats obtenus montrent que les teneurs en chitosan et en verre bioactif ont une influence sur la cristallisation de l'hydroxyapatite et le relargage du médicament. Les modèles mathématiques établis montrent que le temps de relaxation des scaffolds dépend de la concentration de départ en gentamicine. / This research work focuses on the pure and doped bioactive glasses for use as bone biomaterial. They are synthesized by the melting method in the system SiO₂-CaO-Na₂O-P₂O₅. Four metallic elements, presenting interesting chemical and physiological properties, have been introduced in the amorphous matrix. Their chemical reactivity and their cytotoxicity have been evaluated during in vitro assays in simulated body fluid and cell culture media. The introduction of these metallic elements influences their thermal characteristics, the glass matrix dissolution, the kinetic and the crystallization of the hydroxyapatite layer. A good cells proliferation have been showed. In parallel, a method of synthesis of a glass-ceramic, having a microporosity, have been developed by reaction between TiN and ZnO. In vitro assays have showed a bioactive character after 60 days of immersion and a non-cytotoxicity. This biomaterial was implanted in the femoral dyaphisis of rabbits. Different structural studies have showed the gradual resorption of the biomaterial up to 6 months of implantation. Finally, scaffolds chitosan/bioactive glass, obtained by freeze-drying, have also been studied during in vitro assays. They were used as support for the vectorization of gentamicin. The obtained results show that the content of chitosan and bioactive glass have an impact on the crystallization of hydroxyapatite et the release of drug. Mathematic models show that the relaxation time depend on the starting concentration of gentamicin.
