(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2018) Demir, Esra Feyzioglu; Kuru, Cansu Ilke; Uygun, Murat; Uygun, Deniz Aktas; Akgol, Sinan
Herein we describe the synthesis of Concanavalin A-poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-ethylene dimethacrylate) hydrogel membranes (via photopolymerization technique) for antibody separation from aqueous solutions. Different characterization techniques including Scanning Electron Microscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, Elemental Analysis and swelling tests revealed the highly rough morphology and spherical shape of the synthetized membranes. Attached amount of IMEO (salinization agent) onto polymeric structure and Con A binding capacity were found to be 10.85 mol/g and 3.52 mg/g, respectively. Optimum conditions for IgG adsorption such as adsorption capacity, pH and reusability profile of HMs were judiciously characterized. Maximum IgG adsorption capacity of hydrogel membrane was found to be as 26.81 mg/g. Adsorbed IgG was eluted successfully by using 2.0 M of NaCl solution. Reusability profiles of hydrogel membrane in five adsorption-desorption cycles revealed that there was no significant decrease in IgG adsorption capacity at the end of the 5th reuse. The hydrogel membranes reported here hold considerable promise as an effective sorbent system for IgG adsorption with good stability and efficient repeated usage.

(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2017) Kayhan, Ceren Turkcan; Ural, Fulden Zeynep; Koruyucu, Meryem; Salman, Yesim Gul; Uygun, Murat; Uygun, Deniz Aktas; Akgol, Sinan
Isolation of DNA is one of the important processes for biotechnological applications such as investigation of DNA structures and functions, recombinant DNA preparations, identification of genetic factors and diagnosis and treatment of genetic disorders. The aim of this study was to synthesis and characterizes the galactoacrylate based nanopolymers with high surface area and to investigate the usability of these synthesized nanopolymers for DNA isolation studies. Nanopolymers were synthesized by the surfactant free emulsion polymerization technique by using the monomers of 2-hydroxyl ethylmethacrylate and 6-O-(2'-hydroxy-3'-acryloyloxypropyl)-1,2:3,4-di-O-isopropylidene-alpha-D-galactopyranose. Galactoacrylate origin of these newly synthesized nanopolymers increased the interaction between DNA and nanopolymers. Prepared nanopolymers were characterized by SEM, FT-IR and ZETA sizer analysis. Synthesized nanopolymers were spherical, and their average particle size was about 246.8nm. Adsorption of DNA onto galactoacrylate based nanopolymers was investigated by using different pHs, temperatures, ionic strength, DNA concentrations and desorption studies and maximum DNA adsorption was found to be as 567.12 mg/g polymer at 25 degrees C, in pH 5.0 acetate buffer. Reusability was investigated for 5 successive reuse and DNA adsorption capacity decreased only about 10% at the end of the 5th reuse.

Investigation of Controlled Salmeterol Xinafoate and Fluticasone Propionate Release From Double Molecular Imprinted Nanoparticles
(Springer, 2024) Feyzioğlu-Demir, Esra; Akgol, Sinan
Salmeterol xinafoate (SAM) and fluticasone propionate (FLU) are one of the drug combinations used together in the treatment of lung diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The aim of this study is to investigate the usability of novel dual molecular imprinted nanoparticles (poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-N-methacryloyl-(L)-alanine-N-methacryloyl-(L)-histidine) [p(HEMA-MAAL-MAH)], abbr. DMIPNPs) as a controlled drug release systems. In this study, SAM and FLU drugs were chosen as model drugs because they are used in the treatment of these diseases. DMIPNPs were prepared by surfactant-free emulsion polymerization method and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR). In in vitro drug release experiments, drug release conditions were optimized. SAM and FLU release from DMIPNPs experiments were also performed in the simulated lung fluid (SLF). The amount of released SAM and FLU were found as 4.79 and 5.68 mg/g in the SLF medium at the end of 48 h, respectively. The release kinetics of SAM and FLU from DMIPNPs were calculated in the SLF medium. The release of SAM and FLU was determined to be compatible with the Higuchi release models. According to these results, these DMIPNPs, dual-template molecular imprinted nanoparticles with dual monomers, are promising materials that can be used in the controlled release of two different drugs.

The aim of this work is to synthesize the original, new polymeric nanoparticles for concanavalin A (Con A) purification. Nanoparticles were synthesized by surfactant free emulsion polymerization. In the polymerization prosedure, 1-O-(2'-hydroxy-3'-acryloyloxypropyl)-2,3:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-alpha-D-mannofuranose (Man-OPA) was used as co-monomer and 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate (HEMA) was used as a monomer. Man-OPA was characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), nuclear magnetic resonance and elemental analysis techniques. Poly(HEMA-Man-OPA) nanoparticles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, FTIR and Zeta Sizer. In adsorption-desorption experiments, maximum Con A adsorption capacity of poly(HEMA-Man-OPA) nanoparticles was found 630.6 mg/g nanoparticle (pH 7.5, 1.0 mg/mL). Adsorption-desorption experiments were repeated in four times. According to results, these nanoparticles could be used several times without significant decrease in Con A adsorption capacity.

Swelling and Diffusion Behaviour of Spherical Morphological Polymeric Hydrogel Membranes (smphms) Containing Epoxy Groups and Their Application as Drug Release Systems
(Springer, 2023) Feyzioglu-Demir, Esra; Uzum, Omer Baris; Akgol, Sinan
The aim of the study is to characterize synthesized spherical morphological polymeric hydrogel membranes (SMPHMs), especially their swelling properties, and to show the usability of these SMPHMs in the biomedical applications such as drug delivery systems. Insulin used in the treatment of diabetes mellitus disease was chosen as a model drug to demonstrate the usability of these SMPHMs as a drug delivery system. For this purpose, poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-glycidyl methacrylate) [P(HEMA-GMA)] SMPHMs were prepared by photopolymerization technique using different monomers mole ratios. Characterization of SMPHMs was carried out with SEM and FTIR analyses. Swelling experiments were conducted in water. Equilibrium percentage swelling values of SMPHMs were calculated and found as in the range of 40-122%, depending on hydrophilic structure of SMPHMs. Swelling kinetic parameters were determined, and the diffusion behaviour of water was also investigated. Water diffusion into the SMPHMs was found to shift from non-Fickian diffusion to Fickian diffusion when HEMA/GMA mole ratio was decreased in the structure of SMPHMs. In the final part of study, insulin release conditions from SMPHMs were optimized. For this purpose, insulin release studies were carried out to investigate the effect of monomer ratios, pH, temperature, and initial insulin concentration. The amount of maximum cumulative insulin release was found as 3747.73 mu g/g in pH 7.4, at 25 degrees C, in the 0.5 mg/mL insulin concentration from SMPHMs-3 in seven hours. According to these obtained results, these SMPHMs can be used as alternative systems for biotechnological applications such as swelling-controlled drug delivery systems.

In this presented study, a novel molecularly imprinted polymeric hydrogel membranes (PHMs) were developed to use for the albumin depletion studies. For this, albumin imprinted poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-N-methacryloyl-(L)-phenylalanine methyl ester) polymeric hydrogel membranes [p(HEMA-MAP) PHMs] were synthesized by the photopolymerization technique, and then characterized by SEM, EDX, FT-IR and swelling studies. Synthesized PHMs had spherical structure and the MAP monomer incorporation onto the PHMs was determined by EDX analysis by using nitrogen stoichiometry. Also, the swelling ratio of the albumin imprinted p(HEMA-MAP) PHMs was determined as 215%. The optimum albumin adsorption condition (adsorption capacity, medium pH, adsorption rate, temperature, ionic strength) were studied and the maximum albumin adsorption capacity was found to be as 34.28mg/g PHMs. Selectivity experiments were also carried out with the presence of the competitive proteins such as lysozyme and amylase, and the results demonstrated that the albumin imprinted p(HEMA-MAP) PHMs showed high affinity towards the BSA molecules than the competitive proteins of lysozyme and amylase. Adsorbed albumin was desorbed from the PHMs by 1.0M of NaCl, and the reusability of the imprinted PHMs was also demonstrated for five successive adsorption-desorption cycles without any significant loss in the albumin adsorption capacity. As an application, sodium-dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to indicate the albumin depletion efficiency of albumin imprinted p(HEMA-MAP) PHMs. This presented study showed that, these imprinted membranes are promising for proteomic studies and applications, and can be used for the investigations for human diagnostics.
