Mucin/poly(acrylic acid) interactions: a spectroscopic investigation of mucoadhesion.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Studies using infrared, (1)H and (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies and differential scanning calorimetry support the hypothesis that hydrogen bonds, formed between the carboxylic acid functionality of the mucoadhesive material poly(acrylic acid) and the glycoprotein component of mucus, play a significant role in the process of mucoadhesion. There are fewer H-bonded interactions between the components than within the bulk of the pure mucoadhesive agent. The pH of the medium influences the structures of both the poly(acrylic acid) and the mucus, which, in turn, determine the nature and the extent of mucoadhesive interactions.

Adhesion of polyether-modified poly(acrylic acid) to mucin.
Pluronic-PAA, a thermogelling copolymer composed of side chains of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) grafted onto a backbone of Pluronic copolymer, is of interest as a vehicle for the controlled release of compounds. An important feature of such a vehicle is its bioadhesive/mucoadhesive properties, which in the case of Pluronic-PAA are significant due to the presence of the PAA side chains. An atomic fo...

A novel pH-responsive superabsorbent hydrogel based on gelatin was prepared through crosslinking copolymerization of poly (acrylic acid) and poly (itaconic acid). The copolymerization conditions including monomers, initiator, gelatin and crosslinker concentration, reaction temperature, and neutralization percent were systematically optimized to achieve a hydrogel with swelling capacity as high ...

10 11 Both visible and infrared (IR) spectroscopic ellipsometry have been employed to study the 12 structure of thin layers of bovine submaxillary mucin (BSM) adsorbed on poly(acrylic acid13 block-methyl methacrylate) (PAA-b-PMMA) copolymer and poly(methyl methacrylate) 14 surfaces at three pH values (3, 7 and 10). The adsorbed mucin layer on the copolymer surface 15 had the greatest thickness ...
متن کاملDesign of poly(ethylene glycol)-tethered copolymers as novel mucoadhesive drug delivery systems.
We developed novel acrylic-based polymers that can be used as mucoadhesive delivery systems. Poly(acrylic acid) hydrogels were modified by grafting adhesion promoter chains such as poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) onto their back-bone chains, thus promoting the adhesive process by interpenetration. The copolymers synthesized were designated as P(AA-g-EG). Hydrogels were synthesized using PEG of two ...
متن کاملSynthesis of pH Sensitive Hydrogels Based on Poly Vinyl Alcohol and Poly Acrylic Acid
In this research, hydrogels based on poly vinyl alcohol and poly acrylic acid blend were prepared which were cross-linked by applied thermal conditions. Afterward, effects of time and heating on water uptake were investigated. The highest water uptake value exhibited by the sample that was heated for 20 min. at 110 ºC was about 2129% after 4 days at equilibrium state. Hydrogels exhibited p...
