Food grade liposome systems: Effect of solvent, homogenization types and storage conditions on oxidative and physical stability

2017-01-05
Liposomes are the form of phospholipids which could inherently form spherical capsules in aqueous solution by energy. In this study, egg and soy lecithin were used to form liposomes by probe type ultrasonication and high pressure homogenization (microfluidization-MF) methods. To detect physical and chemical changes during storage of liposomes; particle size, zeta potential, transmission electron microscopy, optical microscopy and hydroperoxide formation experiments were conducted for one month. Microfluidization was found to be more efficient than ultrasonication in particle size reduction. When compared with egg lecithin, soy lecithin was found to oxidize less at refrigeration temperature while egg lecithin was better at room temperature, forming less hydroperoxide. Increase in unbound water resulted an increase in hydroperoxide formation with ultrasonication. Disruption of the spherical unity of the liposomes detected by particle size measurements was proposed to increase hydroperoxide formation due to exposure of hydrophobic compartments to the environment while presence of dihydrogen phosphate drastically decreased it.

GUEST HOST INTERACTIONS IN SODIUM ZEOLITE-Y - STRUCTURAL AND DYNAMIC NA-23 DOUBLE-ROTATION NMR-STUDY OF H2O, PME3, MO(CO)6, AND MO(CO)4(PME3)2 ADSORPTION IN NA56Y
JELINEK, R; Özkar, Saim; PASTORE, HO; MALEK, A; OZIN, GA (American Chemical Society (ACS), 1993-01-01)
Na-23 double-rotation NMR (DOR) provides site-specific structural and dynamical information on guest-host interactions within sodium zeolite Y pores. Quantitative adsorption of H2O, PMe3, and Mo(CO)6 guests affects both the positions and line shapes of the N-23 resonances from specific extraframework Na+ sites. The evolution of the Na-23 DOR spectra with the progressive introduction of guest molecules allows one to probe direct ''solvation'' effects involving the Na+ cations in the larger supercages, as wel...
Signal ratio amplification via modulation of resonance energy transfer: Proof of principle in an emission ratiometric Hg(II) sensor
Coskun, Ali; Akkaya, Engin U. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2006-11-15)
Boradiazaindacene dyads designed as energy transfer casettes can be modified to signal cation concentrations ratiometrically. If the energy transfer efficiency is increased via changing spectral overlap on cation binding, an enhancement of emission signal ratios can be obtained. A larger range of ratios results in highly improved sensitivity to analyte concentrations. We demonstrate this approach in a de novo design of a novel and highly selective ratiometric chemosensor for Hg(II) ions.

Condensation reactions such as Guerbet and aldol are important since they allow for C-C bond formation and give higher molecular weight oxygenates. An initial study identified Pd-supported on hydrotalcite as an active catalyst for the, transformation, although this catalyst showed extensive undesirable decarbonylation. A catalyst containing Pd and Cu in a 3:1 ratio dramatically decreased decarbonylation, while preserving the high catalytic rates seen with Pd-based catalysts. A combination of XRD, EXAFS, TEM...
Magnetically separable rhodium nanoparticles as catalysts for releasing hydrogen from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane
Tonbul, Yalcin; Akbayrak, Serdar; Özkar, Saim (Elsevier BV, 2019-10-01)
Magnetically separable catalysts attract considerable attention in catalysis due to their facile separation from the reaction medium. This propensity is crucial for efficient multiple use of precious noble metal nanoparticles in catalysis. In fact, the isolation of catalysts from the reaction medium by filtration and washing results usually in the loss of huge amount of activity in the subsequent run of catalysis. Although many transition metal nanoparticle catalysts have been reported for the H-2 generatio...
Kinetics of methyl lactate formation over the ion exchange resin catalysts
Özen, Serap Akbelen; Karakaş, Gürkan; Department of Chemical Engineering (2004)
The recovery of lactic acid from its dilute aqueous solutions is a major problem. The ester of lactic acid, namely, methyl lactate has a wide range of applications. The esterification of an aqueous solution of lactic acid with methanol is a reversible reaction. As excess of amount water is present in the reaction mixture, the conversion is greatly restricted by the chemical reaction equilibrium limitations. In this study the esterification kinetics of lactic acid with methanol both in the absence and presen...
