In this work, polyelectrolyte microcapsules containing gold nanoparticles were prepared via layer by layer assembly. Gold nanoparticles and poly (allyamine hydrochloride) (PAH) were coated on the CaCO3 microparticles. And then EDTA was used to remove the CaCO3 core. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to characterize the surface of microcapsules. SEM images indicate that the microcapsules and the polyelectrolyte multilayer were deposited on the surface of CaCO3 microparticles. FITC-bovine serum albumin (FITC-BSA, 2 mg) was incorporated in the CaCO3 microparticles by co-precipitation. Fluorescence microscopy was used to observe the fluorescence intensity of microcapsules. The encapsulation efficiency was (34.31 +/- 2.44) %. The drug loading was (43.75 +/- 3.12) mg g(-1).

In this study, polyelectrolyte microcapsules have been fabricated by biocompatible ferrosoferric oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs) and poly allyamine hydrochloride (PAH) using layer by layer assembly technique. The Fe3O4 NPs were prepared by chemical co-precipitation, and characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and infrared spectrum (IR). Quartz cell also was used as a substrate for building multilayer films to evaluate the capability of forming planar film. The result showed that Fe3O4 NPs were selectively deposited on the surface of quartz cell. Microcapsules containing Fe3O4 NPs were fabricated by Fe3O4 NPs and PAH alternately self-assembly on calcium carbonate microparticles firstly, then 0.2 molL(-1) EDTA was used to remove the calcium carbonate. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Zetasizer and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) were used to characterize the microcapsule's morphology, size and magnetic properties. The result revealed that Fe3O4 NPs and PAH were successfully deposited on the surface of CaCO3 microparticles, the microcapsule manifested superparamagnetism, size and saturation magnetization were 4.9 +/- 1.2 microm and 8.94 emu x g(-1), respectively. As a model drug, Rhodamin B isothiocyanate labeled bovine serum albumin (RBITC-BSA) was encapsulated in microcapsule depended on pH sensitive of the microcapsule film. When pH 5.0, drug add in was 2 mg, the encapsulation efficiency was (86.08 +/- 3.36) % and the drug loading was 8.01 +/- 0.30 mg x m(L-1).

BACKGROUND: Based on previous studies, the combination of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) with graft may accelerate the procedure of vascular invasion of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) graft. The antigenicity of graft could be inhibited by the destruction of major histolocompatibility complex (MHC) through the treatment of allogenous tendon by freeze. The freeze. dried tendon showed advantages including prolonged storage time. availability for transport and possibility of commercial application. There is no experimental and clinical study on the graft substance of bFGF combined tendon in ACL reconstruction in animal model so far. OBJECTIVE: To observe histologically the effect of exogenous application or bFGF combined to freeze-dried tendon on angiogenic enhancement in early ACL reconstruction. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Controlled animal study, which was performed in the Department of Orthopeadics, Xijing Hospital. Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA between June 2006 and June 2007.MATERIALS: Fourteen dogs were used in the experiment. METHODS: Extensor digitorum longus tendon was harvested from the rest 2 dogs and treated by freeze-dry as graft for other experimental dogs. bFGF(100 u g/L)was combined to freeze-dried tendon and then transplanted into one side knee to substitute the original ACL. While only freeze-dried tendon was used in the transplantation at the other side as control. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Twelve of them were randomly divided into 6 groups according to the 6 time points,i,e.,1,2,3,4,5,6 weeks after surgery(2 dogs in each group).The histological observation with HE staining was done under microscope to mainly observe the angiogenesis in the transplanted ACL. RESULTS: Neovascularization occurred at the 2nd to 3rd weeks and reached the peak at the 4th to 5th weeks postoperatively at the experimental sides. By contrast. The neovascularization occurred at the 4th to 5th weeks postoperatively at the control sides. Neovascularization in the combined group was longer and deeper than that in the control group. CONCLUSION: The time of neovascular formation and the depth of vascular penetration into the tendon in the group of bFGF combined to freeze-dried tendon are superior to those in the control group.

The study is to design chitosan-coated pilocarpine nitrate submicro emulsion (CS-PN/SE) for the development of a novel mucoadhesive submicro emulsion, aiming to prolong the precorneal retention time and improve the ocular absorption. CS-PN/SE was fabricated in two steps: firstly, pilocarpine nitrate submicro emulsion (PN/SE) was prepared by high-speed shear with medium chain triglycerides (MCT) as oil phase and Tween 80 as the main emulsifier, and then incubated with chitosan (CS) acetic solution. The preparation process was optimized by central composite design-response surface methodology. Besides the particle size, zeta potential, entrapment efficiency and micromorphology were investigated, CS-PN/SE's precorneal residence properties and miotic effect were especially studied using New Zealand rabbits as the animal model. When CS-PN/SE was administered topically to rabbit eyes, the ocular clearance and the mean resident time (MRT) of pilocarpine nitrate were found to be dramatically improved (P < 0.05) compared with PN/SE and pilocarpine nitrate solution (PNs), since the K(CS-PN/SE) was declined to 0.006 4 +/- 0.000 3 min(-1) while MRT was prolonged up to 155.4 min. Pharmacodynamics results showed that the maximum miosis of CS-PN/SE was as high as 46.3%, while the miotic response lasted 480 min which is 255 min and 105 min longer than that of PNs and PN/SE, respectively. A larger area under the miotic percentage vs time curve (AUC) of CS-PN/SE was exhibited which is 1.6 folds and 1.2 folds as much as that of PNs and PN/SE, respectively (P < 0.05). Therefore, CS-PN/SE could enhance the duration of action and ocular bioavailability by improving the precorneal residence and ocular absorption significantly.
