Nanoparticle Production and Lipid Loading

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Nanoparticles (NPLs) were produced as described by Paillard et al. (34 (link)). Briefly, maltodextrin (Roquette, France) was dissolved in 2N sodium hydroxide by magnetic stirring at room temperature. A mixture of epichlorohydrin and glycidyltrimethylammonium chloride (GTMA, a cationic ligand; both from Sigma-Aldrich, France) was added to the polysaccharide leading to the formation of a gel. After neutralization by means of acetic acid, the gel was crushed with a high pressure homogenizer (Emulsiflex C3, Avestin, Germany). The newly obtained NPLs were purified by tangential flow ultra-filtration (Centramate Minim II PALL, France) using a 300 kDa membrane (PALL, France) to remove oligosaccharides, low-molecular weight reagents and salts. Purified NPLs were freeze dried. Lyophilized NPLs were dissolved in water and a 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylglycerol (DPPG) lipid (Lipoid, Germany) was loaded into NPLs at a temperature above the liquid phase transition temperature of the lipid.

Preparation of Amorphous Maltodextrin and Sucrose Solutions

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The model substances maltodextrin (Glucidex 12D, Roquette, France) and sucrose (Südzucker, Germany), both in an amorphous state, were used. Solutions with a solid concentration of c1 = 0.05 w/w and c2 = 0.15 w/w of maltodextrin and sucrose were prepared by mixing them with demineralized water. To ensure full solution, the sample solutions were gently stirred by a magnet stirrer at 300 rpm for 1 h at ambient temperature. Afterwards, the samples were stored inside a fridge at 4 °C until further use.

Spray-Drying of Chokeberry Juice with Maltodextrin

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Drying was performed using a semi-industrial spray dryer—Niro Atomiser type FU 11 DA (Denmark)—which allowed to perform a full equivalent of the industrial process. Commercial, concentrated chokeberry juice (SVZ International B.V., Holland) (65 Brix) was used in the study. Maltodextrin, with two degrees of crystallization, was used as a carrier DE: 8 and 22 (Roquette Freres—France). The content of all powders that were received was identical: 30% of fruit and 70% of the carrier in dry powder mass. The process was performed for the following inlet air temperature: 150, 160, 170 °C, and with the following values of the rotary atomizer’s rotational speed: 12,000, 13,000, 14,000 rpm. Table 1 presents the experimental conditions used for the spray-drying of chokeberry juice with the carrier.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
