The whole cell PVA activity was improved by permeabilization with various organic solvents. The cell-bound PVA activity showed an eightfold increase upon treatment with chloroform (5 mu L/mg(dry) (biomass)) for 10 min and diethyl ether (10 mu L/mg(dry) (biomass)) for 45 min. Hexane, toluene, ethyl acetate and dichloromethane enhanced the enzyme activity up to two-, six-, four- and two-fold, respectively; whereas, PVA activity declined drastically on permeabilization with acetone, pyridine and alcohols. The physicochemical properties of the organic solvents used for permeabilization were correlated with the change in activity. It was found that solvents with high hydrophobicity (log P &amp;gt; 0.68) and lower dielectric constant (&amp;lt; 9) were relatively effective in increasing PVA activity. These results allow systematic selection of suitable solvent for best performance. (c) 2008 Elsevier B.V.

These new benzoxazine monomers exhibited better processability with lower peak cure temperature and a wide cure controllable window (CCW) as manifested in differential scanning calorimetric analysis. The cure analysis was performed by FT-IR spectroscopy. Glass transition temperature of new polybenzoxazines varied from 170 to 205 degrees C. The cyclohexyl bridge groups facilitated ring opening, resulting in polymer with improved thermal stability in comparison to bisphenol A-based benzoxazine as assessed by the various thermal analyses. The water contact angles of polybenzoxazines containing (substituted) cyclohexyl moieties were higher than that of bisphenol A-based polybenzoxazine, implying their higher hydrophobicity.

Despite these advancements, achieving self-healing in permanently cross-linked hydrogels has remained elusive because of the presence of water and irreversible cross-links. Here, we demonstrate that permanently cross-linked hydrogels can be engineered to exhibit self-healing in an aqueous environment. We achieve this feature by arming the hydrogel network with flexible-pendant side chains carrying an optimal balance of hydrophilic and hydrophobic moieties that allows the side chains to mediate hydrogen bonds across the hydrogel interfaces with minimal steric hindrance and hydrophobic collapse. The self-healing reported here is rapid, occurring within seconds of the insertion of a crack into the hydrogel or juxtaposition of two separate hydrogel pieces. The healing is reversible and can be switched on and off via changes in pH, allowing external control over the healing process. Moreover, the hydrogels can sustain multiple cycles of healing and separation without compromising their mechanical properties and healing kinetics. Beyond revealing how secondary interactions could be harnessed to introduce new functions to chemically crosslinked polymeric systems, we also demonstrate various potential applications of such easy-to-synthesize, smart, self-healing hydrogels.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.66

The copolymer with 25% crosslink density was reacted with different amines with alkyl/aryl side chains to obtain a series of copolymers with 1,2-amino alcohol functional groups and varying hydrophobicity. Trypsin binding capacity again increases with hydrophobicity of the reacting amine and a good correlation between logP(octanol) of the amine and protein binding is observed. The bound trypsin is denatured to the extent of 90% in spite of the presence of hydrophilic hydroxyl and amino groups. The behavior was comparable to that in mixtures of aqueous buffer and water-miscible organic co-solvents where the solvent concentration required to deactivate 50% of the enzyme (C-50) is dependent on logP(octanol) of the co-solvent.

	Aspergillus fumigatus is one of the major pathogenic fungal species, causing life-threatening infections. Due to a limited spectrum of available antifungals, exploration of new drug targets as well as potential antifungal molecules has become pertinent. Rodlet layer plays an important role in adherence of fungal conidia to hydrophobic cell surfaces in host, which also leads to A. fumigatus biofilm formation, contributing factor to fungal pathogenicity. From decades, natural sources have been known for the development of new active molecules. The present study investigates effect of isoeugenol on genes responsible for hydrophobins (RodA), adhesion as well as biofilm formation (MedA and SomA) of A. fumigatus. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC and IC50) of isoeugenol against A. fumigatus were determined using broth microdilution assay. The IC50 results showed reduced hydrophobicity and biofilm formation as well as eradication after treatment with the compound and electron micrograph data corroborated these findings. The qRT-PCR showed a significant downregulation of genes RodA, MedA, SomA and pksP involved in hydrophobicity and biofilm formation. SwissADME studies potentiated drug-like propensity for isoeugenol which formed four hydrogen bonds with low binding energy (- 4.54 kcal/mol) at the catalytic site of RodA protein studied via AutoDock4. Hence, the findings conclude that isoeugenol inhibits conidial hydrophobicity and biofilm formation of A. fumigatus and further investigations are warranted in this direction.&lt;/p&gt;
