        Preserving the inflated structure of lyophilized sporopollenin exine capsules with polyethylene glycol osmolyte

        <P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>Extracted from natural pollen grains, sporopollenin exine capsules (SECs) are robust, chemically inert biopolymer shells that posess highly uniform size and shape characteristics and that can be utilized as hollow microcapsules for drug delivery applications. However, it is challenging to extract fully functional SECs from many pollen species because pollen grains often collapse, causing the loss of architectural features, loading volume, and bulk uniformity. Herein, we demonstrate that polyethylene glycol (PEG) osmolyte solutions can help preserve the native architectural features of extracted SECs, yielding inflated microcapsules of high uniformity that persist even after subsequent lyophilization. Optimal conditions were first identified to extract SECs from cattail (<I>Typhae angustfolia</I>) pollen <I>via</I> phosphoric acid processing after which successful protein removal was confirmed by elemental (CHN), mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF), and confocal laser canning microscopy (CLSM) analyses. The shape of SECs was then assessed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and dynamic image particle analysis (DIPA). While acid-processed SECs experienced high degrees of structural collapse, incubation in 2.5% or higher PEG solutions significantly improved preservation of spherical SEC shape by inducing inflation within the microcapsules. A theoretical model of PEG-induced osmotic pressure effects was used to interpret the experimental data, and the results show excellent agreement with the known mechanical properties of pollen exine walls. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that PEG osmolyte is a useful additive for preserving particle shape in lyophilized SEC formulations, opening the door to broadly applicable strategies for stabilizing the structure of hollow microcapsules.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> Identified that polyethylene glycol (PEG) osmolyte can prevent SEC particle collapse. </LI> <LI> Chemical route to extract SECs from cattail pollen was achieved successfully. </LI> <LI> Model of PEG-induced osmotic pressure effects agrees with experimental data. </LI> </UL> </P> <P><B>Graphical abstract</B></P> <P>[DISPLAY OMISSION]</P>

        Characterization of opto-electrical enhancement of tandem photoelectrochemical cells by using photoconductive-AFM

        Park, Sun-Young,Elbersen, Rick,Huskens, Jurriaan,Gardeniers, Han,Lee, Joo-Yul,Mul, Guido,Heo, Jinhee IOP 2017 Nanotechnology Vol.28 No.29

        <P>Solar-to-hydrogen conversion by water splitting in photoelectrochemical cells (PECs) is a promising approach to alleviate problems associated with intermittency in solar energy supply and demand. Several interfacial resistances in photoelectrodes limit the performance of such cells, while the properties of interfaces are not easy to analyze <I>in situ</I>. We applied photoconductive-AFM to analyze the performance of WO<SUB>3</SUB>/p<SUP>+</SUP>n Si photoanodes, containing an ultra-thin metal interface of either Au or Pt. The Au interface consisted of Au nanoparticles with well-ordered interspacing, while Pt was present in the form of a continuous film. Photoconductive-AFM data show that upon illumination significantly larger currents are measured for the WO<SUB>3</SUB>/p<SUP>+</SUP>n Si anode equipped with the Au interface, as compared to the WO<SUB>3</SUB>/p<SUP>+</SUP>n Si anode with the Pt interface, in agreement with the better performance of the former electrode in a photoelectrochemical cell. The remarkable performance of the Au-containing electrode is proposed to be the result of favorable electron-hole recombination rates induced by the Au nanoparticles in a plasmon resonance excited state.</P>
