Additives, incorporated in film coating formulations, and their process parameters are generally selected using a trial-and-error approach. However, coating problems and defects, especially those associated with aqueous coating systems, indicate the necessity of embracing a quality-by-design approach to identify the optimum coating parameters. In this study, the feasibility of using thermal and rheological measurements to help evaluate and design novel coating formulations has been investigated. Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (HPMCAS), an enteric coating polymer, was used as the film forming polymer. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA), and Parallel Plate Shear Rheometery (PPSR) were used to evaluate the effect of different plasticisers on the performance of HPMCAS. The results illustrate that, for identical formulations, the DSC and DMA methods yielded up to 40% differences in glass transition temperature (Tg) values. Moreover, Tg measured using loss modulus signals were always 20-30 oC less than those measured using tan delta results in DMA testing. Absolute and relative Tg values can significantly vary depending on the geometry of the samples, clamp size, temperature ramping rate and the frequency of the oscillations. Complex viscosity data for different formulations demonstrated a variable shear thinning behaviour and a Tg independent ranking. It is, therefore, insufficient to rely purely on Tg values to determine the relative performance of additives. In addition, complex viscosity results, obtained using both the DMA and PPSR techniques at similar temperatures, are shown to be comparable. The results from both techniques were therefore used to produce continuous master curves for the HPMCAS formulations. Additionally, step strain tests showed that HPMCAS chains do not fully III disentangle after 105 seconds as predicted by the Maxwell model. Finally, in situ aqueous-based coating experiments proved that mixtures of triethyl acetyl citrate and acetylated monoglyceride (TEAC/AMG), even without cooling of the suspension, do not cause blocking of the spray nozzle whereas triethyl citrate (TEC) based formulae did. TEAC (alone or in a combination with AMG) exhibits superior wettability to HPMCAS than TEC/AMG formulations and can be used to enhance the efficiency and film quality of the dry coating process.

Les polynucléaires neutrophiles représentent 50-70% des leucocytes sanguins et possèdent un rôle majeur dans la défense de l'organisme contre les pathogènes. Le Ca2+ est un second messager qui joue un rôle primordial dans le chimiotactisme, la phagocytose, la dégranulation et la production de formes réactives de l'oxygène (FRO) afin de neutraliser l'agent pathogène. Dans ces cellules, l'influx calcique de type SOCE est essentiel pour l'homéostasie calcique. Il est peu étudié en raison du manque d'outils pharmacologiques spécifiques d'où l'importance dans un premier temps de chercher de nouvelles molécules. Les cellules T Jurkat dont le SOCE est largement caractérisé servent de modèle pour la caractérisation initiale de ces molécules. Le 2-APB est parmi les molécules les plus largement utilisées dans la caractérisation du SOCE en raison de sa double activité sur le SOCE avec une potentialisation à [1-10 μM] et une inhibition à [> 20 μM]. En revanche, ce produit manque de spécificité et agit sur d'autres cibles cellulaires comme les récepteurs à l'inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate (InsP3Rs). La 1ère étape est de sélectionner à partir d'analogues commerciaux du 2-APB (Methoxy-APB, Dimethoxy-APB, Cyclic-APB, Benzothienyl-APB, Thienyl-APB et MDEB), des composés plus spécifiques et également plus efficaces que la molécule mère. Deux molécules se sont distinguées : le MDEB comme uniquement potentialisant du SOCE et le Benzothienyl-APB comme un puissant inhibiteur. En revanche, tous les analogues du 2-APB inhibent les InsP3Rs à l'exception du MDEB qui semble plus spécifique du SOCE. L'effet du MDEB sur le courant calcique, ICRAC, a été étudié grâce à la technique du patch-clamp. Il augmente d'environ 4 fois l'amplitude de ICRAC par rapport à celle enregistrée dans les cellules contrôle. Par ailleurs, le MDEB ralentie l'inactivation rapide de ICRAC due au Ca2+. Sur le plan physiologique, le MDEB à des concentrations croissantes inhibe la synthèse de l'IL-2 dans les cellules Jurkat stimulées et ceci malgré son effet potentialisant du SOCE. Cette activité est liée à son effet pro-apoptotique dans les cellules Jurkat stimulées. Le MDEB et le Benzothienyl-APB caractérisés dans la 1ère partie nous ont servi d'outils potentiels afin d'étudier le SOCE des cellules PLB-985 différenciées en cellules proches de neutrophiles. Le SOCE a été induit soit par un traitement des cellules avec la thapsigargine (Tg) soit de manière physiologique avec les peptides fMLF et le WKYMVm deux chimioattractants, ligands des récepteurs aux peptides formylés FPR et FPRL1 respectivement. En plus, le SOCE induit par la Tg est modulable par le 2-APB, potentialisé par le MDEB et inhibé par le Benzothienyl-APB. La phagocytose des levures par les cellules PLB-985 différenciées ainsi que la production de FRO intraphagosomales ont été inhibées par le MDEB et le Benzothienyl-APB. Les FRO extracellulaires ont été également inhibées par Benzothienyl-APB en revanche à cause de la forte interférence du MDEB avec la technique de mesure nous n'avons pas pu étudier ses activités. En conclusion, le MDEB et le Benzothienyl-APB sont de nouveaux outils pharmacologiques potentialisant ou inhibant le SOCE des leucocytes, qui nous permettront dans l'avenir une meilleure compréhension de l'entrée calcique et ses rôles dans ces cellules.

O esgotamento das fontes de energia, especialmente energia fóssil, sobretudo sua impossibilidade de renovação, tem motivado o desenvolvimento de tecnologias que permitam utilizar fontes renováveis de energia. O biodiesel é biodegradável, renovável e obedece ao ciclo de carbono, sendo definido como mono-alquil éster de ácidos graxos derivado de fontes renováveis, como óleos vegetais e gorduras animais, o mesmo pode ser obtido através de um processo de transesterifícação, no qual ocorre a transformação de triacilglicerídeos em moléculas menores de ésteres de ácidos graxos e apresenta características físico-químicas semelhantes às do diesel fóssil. Este trabalho apresenta a obtenção de biodiesel a partir da mistura dos óleos de milho e algodão obtido por transesterifícação sob uso do catalisador homogéneo (KOH) e heterogéneo (MCM-41 e 1% Mo/MCM-41). A mistura dos óleos vegetais e o biodiesel etílico foram caracterizados em função das propriedades físicoquímicas, reologia, cromatografia gasosa (CG), espectroscopia de infravermelho (IV) e termogravimetria (TG). Mediante os resultados obtidos pode-se observar que a rota homogênea promoveu uma conversão em ésteres etílicos de 81,23%, já a rota heterogênea não se obteve resultados satisfatórios o que foi observado pelo elevado teor de triacilglicerídeos. As análises no infravermelho e por cromatografia gasosa permitiram a análise química do processo. Nas análises termogravimétricas, observou-se que o biodiesel apresentou uma temperatura de decomposição inicial menor que a do óleo, demonstrando ser mais volátil e aproximando-se do diesel. / Most of the world energy consumption derives from oil, coal and natural gas. The shortage of the energy sources, especially the energy from fóssil fuels, and moreover the impossibility of its renewal has motivated the development of technologies that allow the usage of renewable energy sources. Biodiesel is biodegradable, renewable and it obeys the cycle of carbon, it is defined as a blend of mono-alkyl esters of fatty acids derived from renewable sources, as vegetable oils and animal fats. It can be obtained by means of a transesterification process, in which the transformation of triacylglycerides into smaller molecules of fatty acid esters takes place, and it displays physical and chemical characteristics similar to the ones of a fóssil fuelderived diesel oil. This paper presents the production of biodiesel from a mixture of corn and cotton oils transesterified with homogeneous (KOH) and heterogeneous (MCM-41 and 1% Mo/MCM-41) catalysts. The mixture of vegetable oils and the ethanol biodiesel were characterized in terms of physical and chemical properties, rheology, gas chromatography (GC), infrared spectroscopy (IR) and thermal analysis (TG). The results showed that the homogeneous route promoted a 81,23% conversion into ethyl esters conversely, the heterogeneous route did not show satisfactory results, as a the high levei of triacylglycerides was observed. The infrared spectroscopy and gas chromatography analyses were used for the chemical analysis of the products. In thermogravimetric analyses, it was observed that the Biodiesel samples presented a lower initial decomposition temperature than that of the vegetable oil, suggesting that these samples are more volatile than the oil and closer to diesel.

Poliuretana (PUR) é uma classe de polímeros que possui grupos uretânicos [-O-C(=O)-NH-] em sua estrutura e encontra diversas aplicações, inclusive na área biomédica. Esta versatilidade é devida ao uso de diferentes monômeros em sua síntese. O uso de isocianatos cicloalifáticos, um dos monômeros da PUR, é mais vantajoso em aplicações que requeiram uma maior estabilidade térmica e à radiação ultravioleta e maior resistência à hidrólise. Quando processadas inapropriadamente, as PUR baseadas em isocianatos aromáticos produzem compostos carcinogênicos, fato não observado para as PUR com isocianatos cicloalifáticos. Visando a aplicação biomédica, a PUR tem sido modificada através da incorporação de grupos iônicos à cadeia polimérica, formando ionômeros. A esterilização de materiais de uso biomédico é feita pelo emprego de óxido de etileno ou da radiação gama. Neste trabalho, visou-se a síntese e caracterização da PUR e do ionômero sultanado desta, baseadas em isocianato cicloalifático, além do estudo do efeito da radiação gama nos polímeros. Foi observado através da espectroscopia vibracional e análise elementar que se formam ligações de alofanato, uma ramificação da PUR linear. Comparando-se a PUR sintetizada com uma amostra comercial de PUR linear de uso biomédico, amorfa, verificou-se que a primeira apresentava cristalinidade. O estudo da cinética de decomposição térmica da PUR permitiu estabelecer o mecanismo com o qual acontece a decomposição. A estabilidade térmica e cristalinidade da PUR sulfonada são maiores que para a PUR, devendo estar relacionadas à contribuição dos grupos sulfonato. A PUR sulfonada tem um maior tempo de vida estimado que a PUR, nas temperaturas estudadas. A irradiação das amostras permitiu a verificação da oxidação do segmento do poliol e/ou extensor de cadeia, por meio da diminuição de intensidade das bandas relacionadas a este segmento nos espectros vibracionais e diminuição da cristalinidade por DSC. / Polyurethane (PUR) is a class of polymers that possesses urethane groups [O-C(=O)-NH-] in its structure and that find many applications, including biomedical ones. This variety is due to the use of different monomers in its synthesis. The use of aliphatic isocyanates, one of PUR monomers, is more valuable in applications that demand stability to UV radiation, resistance to hydrolysis, and a greater thermal stability. The aromatic isocyanate-based PUR produces, when processed incorrectly, carcinogenic compounds, a fact that is not observed in the cycloaliphatic isocyanate-based PUR. The PUR modification to use it in biomedical artifacts has been made, among some procedures, through the incorporation of ionic groups into the polymer chain, forming ionomers. The biomedical materials sterilization is made employing ethylene oxide or gamma radiation. The objectives of this work are the synthesis and characterization of PUR and its sulfonated ionomer, both based on a cycloaliphatic isocyanate, as well as the study of the effect of gamma radiation in the polymers. It has been observed the formation of allophanate linkages through the analysis of vibrational spectra and elemental analysis data. Comparing the synthesized PUR and a commercial, amorphous, linear PUR used in biomedical artifacts, it has been noted that the former has crystallinity. The kinetic study of thermal decomposition of PUR allowed to establish the decomposition mechanism of PUR. The thermal stability and crystallinity of sulfonated PUR are greater than of PUR, probably due to the contribution of sulfonic groups. The lifetime of sulfonated PUR is greater than that of PUR, in the temperature range studied. The samples irradiation has permitted the observation of poliol and/or chain extender oxidation, by means of the decreasing of the intensity of the vibrational bands related to these groups and the decreasing of crystallinity in DSC.

Calcium is a second messenger which plays an important role in chemotaxis, phagocytosis, degranulation and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in order to eliminate microbes. In neutrophils, the mechanism of store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) is essential for calcium homeostasis. However, neutrophil SOCE is not well understood because of the lack of specific pharmacological tools. It is necessary to first identify and characterize new molecules using a model of Jurkat T cells in which SOCE was the best characterized. 2-APB is the most widely used molecule in SOCE characterization due to its dual activity with a potentiation at lower concentrations [1-10 μM] and an inhibition at higher concentrations [> 20 μM]. However, this molecule lacks specificity because it acts on other cellular targets such as inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate receptors (InsP3Rs). The first step is to select from a library of 8 commercial 2-APB analogues (Methoxy-APB, Dimethoxy-APB, Cyclic-APB, Benzothienyl-APB, Thienyl-APB and MDEB) those that are more specific and also more efficient molecules than 2-APB. Two interesting molecules were identified, MDEB as the only SOCE potentiating product currently known and the Benzothienyl-APB, which is a strong inhibitor. Like 2-APB, all these analogues inhibit InsP3Rs except MDEB, which seems to be more specific. The effect of MDEB on the calcium current, ICRAC, was also studied using the patch-clamp technique. MDEB increases ~4 times the ICRAC amplitude in comparison with control. Otherwise, MDEB slows down the fast Ca2 +-dependent inactivation of ICRAC. Functionally, MDEB at increasing concentrations inhibits IL-2 synthesis in stimulated Jurkat T cells despite its potentiating activity on SOCE. The inhibition is due to MDEB induced apoptosis in stimulated Jurkat T cells. MDEB and Benzothienyl-APB were then used as tools to study SOCE in a neutrophil-like cell model, the differentiated PLB-985 cells. SOCE was induced either by treatment of cells with thapsigargin (Tg) or physiologically with the chemotactic peptides fMLF and WKYMVm, ligands of formyl peptide receptors FPR and FPRL1 respectively. In addition, Tg-induced SOCE was modulated by 2-APB, potentiated by MDEB and inhibited by Benzothienyl-APB. The consequences of these analogues on neutrophil functions were also studied. Phagocytosis of yeasts by PLB-985 cells and intraphagosomal ROS production were inhibited by MDEB and Benzothienyl-APB. Furthermore, extracellular ROS were also inhibited by Benzothienyl-APB. However, because of the high interference of MDEB with our techniques, its activities could not be studied. In conclusion, MDEB and Benzothienyl-APB are new analogues of 2-APB potentiating and inhibiting SOCE, which allow us in the future a better understanding of leukocyte SOCE and its cellular roles.
