Mechano-activatable Microcapsules for Tunable Drug Delivery
Introduction A particularly desirable feature of controlled drug delivery is self-regulation, wherein physiological feedback actively regulates release kinetics. Extant systems in this domain commonly employ stimuli-responsive vehicles that rely on internal triggers to precipitate release, such as temperature, pH, or chemical reactions. 2 The sensitivity of these triggers can be tuned by biomat...
متن کاملRobust and responsive silk ionomer microcapsules.
We demonstrate the assembly of extremely robust and pH-responsive thin shell LbL microcapsules from silk fibroin counterparts modified with poly(lysine) and poly(glutamic) acid, which are based on biocompatible silk ionomer materials in contrast with usually exploited synthetic polyelectrolytes. The microcapsules are extremely stable in an unusually wide pH range from 1.5 to 12.0 and show a rem...
متن کاملControlling release from pH-responsive microcapsules.
We report a microfluidic approach to produce monodisperse pH-responsive microcapsules with precisely controlled release behavior. The solid microcapsule shells are composed of a biocompatible pH-responsive polymer and robustly encapsulate an active material; however, when exposed to a trigger pH, the shells degrade and ultimately release the microcapsule contents. We control the trigger pH by u...
متن کاملFormation of Uniform Polyaniline Thin Shells and Hollow Capsules Using Polyelectrolyte-Coated Microspheres as Templates
Multilayers of poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) and poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) precoated onto melamine formaldehyde (MF) particles via the layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly procedure were used as templates for the subsequent deposition of polyaniline (PANI). Transmission electron microscopic (TEM) and scanning electron microscopic (SEM) images reveal that the as-prepared PANIcontain...
متن کاملFunctional attributes discriminating mechano-insensitive and mechano-responsive C nociceptors in human skin.
Microneurography was used in healthy human subjects to record action potentials from unmyelinated nerve fibers (C units) in cutaneous fascicles of the peroneal nerve. Activity-dependent slowing (n = 96) and transcutaneous electrical thresholds (n = 67) were determined. Eight units were sympathetic efferents according to their responses to sympathetic reflex provocations. Mechano-heat-responsive...
