AB  - Due to tunable opto-electronic properties ZnO-based nanoparticles (ZnONPs) have been used for application in electronics, optoelectronics, photo(electro)catalysis, etc. Besides, as bio-inert, ZnONPs have a great potential in medicine for biosensing, bioimaging, drug and gene delivery, implants or as antimicrobial and anticancer agents. One of suggested governing mechanism of the biological activities of ZnONPs is based on the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Actually, when ZnONP absorb photon with energy equal or greater than its band gap, electrons (e−) are excited from the valence band (VB) to the conduction band (CB) leaving the holes (h+) in VB. In following, the photogenerated h+ and e− migrate from bulk to surface. The photogenerated h+ at the VB react with water molecules adsorbed at the particle surface to produce hydroxyl radicals (OH•), while e− in CB react with oxygen molecules generating anionic superoxide radicals (O2−•). Radicals can be transformed in highly reactive hydroxyl radicals and so on. Derivatives of this active oxygen can damage the bacterial/tumor cells. However, in sufficiency ROS can damage normal cells as well. Thus, an understanding of ZnONPs crystal structure-activity relationship is crucial for the design of materials safe for application in treating diseases like cancer. In this study we established correlation between the surface-to-bulk defects ratio in ZnONPs and ROS formation. To vary surface-to-bulk defects ratio, series of ZnONP samples were synthesized by microwave processing of precipitate in the presence of a different amount (5, 10 and 20 wt.%) of surfactants, precisely, CTAB and citric acid. The particles crystallinity and phase purity were investigated by X-ray diffraction, Raman and FTIR spectroscopy. The particles morphology and texture properties were observed with FE–SEM and BET, respectively. The optical properties were studied using UV–Vis DRS and PL spectroscopy. ZnONP samples with different surface-to-bulk defect ratio were examined on ROS formation. Surface-to-bulk defect ratio in ZnONP was correlated with ROS formation, besides; their influence on cytotoxicity to normal and cancerous cells was comprehended.

AB  - Slaughterhouse blood represents a valuable source of hemoglobin, which can be used in the production of heme-iron based supplements for the prevention/treatment of iron-deficiency anemia. In order to obtain a stable solid-state formulation, the effect of maltose addition (30 %) on the stability and storage of bovine and porcine hemoglobin in powders obtained by spray- and freeze-drying (without maltose: Hb; with maltose: HbM) were inves­tigated. Differential scanning calorimetry of spray- and freeze-dried powders indicated satisfying quality of the formulation prepared with maltose on dissol­ving back into solution. After two-year storage at room temperature (20±5 °C) in solid forms, protected from moisture and light, rehydrated spray- and freeze-dried HbM were red, while Hb were brown. Dynamic light scattering showed the presence of native hemoglobin monomers in rehydrated spray- and freeze-dried HbM, but their agglomerates in Hb samples. UV–Vis spectrophotometry confirmed an absence of significant hemoglobin denaturation and methemoglobin formation in HbM freeze-dried powders. In spray-dried HbM, an inc­reased level of methemoglobin was detected. The results confirmed the stabil­izing effect of maltose, and suggested its use in the production of long-term stable solid-state formulations of hemoglobin, along with drying processes optimization.

AB  - Owing to a wide band gap energy (3.37 eV at RT) and a large exciton binding energy (60 meV), ZnO nanoparticles (ZnONP) have a diverse application, e.g. in electronics, optoelectronics, photocatalysis. Besides, ZnONP have a great potential in medicine for bioimaging, drug/gene delivery or as antimicrobial and anticancer agents. One of suggested governing mechanisms of the mentioned biological activities of ZnONP is based on formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). When ZnONP absorb photon with energy equal or greater than its band gap, electrons are excited from the valence band (VB) to the conduction band (CB) leaving the holes in VB. Furthermore, the photogenerated holes (h+) and electrons (e-) migrate from bulk to surface. The photogenerated holes at the VB react with water molecules adsorbed at the particle surface to produce hydroxyl radical, while electrons in CB react with oxygen molecules generating anionic superoxide radical O2 -•. Superoxide radicals can be transformed in highly reactive OH• and so on [1]. Derivatives of this active oxygen can damage the bacterial/tumor cells [2]. However, in sufficiency ROS can damage normal cells as well. Thus, an understanding of ZnONP crystal structure-activity relationship and mechanism of ZnONP-related products formation and their consequent activity is crucial for the design of safe ZnONP based biomaterial for application in treating diseases like cancer. A series of ZnONP samples were synthesized by microwave processing of precipitate in the presence of a small amount (5 wt.%) of surfactants CTAB and citric acid. The particles crystallinity and purity were investigated by X-ray diffraction, Raman and ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. The particles morphology and texture properties were observed with field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE–SEM) and nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherm, respectively. The optical properties were studied using UV–Vis diffuse reflectance and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. ZnONP samples with different surface-to-bulk defect ratio were examined on ROS formation and antimicrobial activity. Future studies will be conducted with an aim to correlate surface-to-bulk defect ratio in ZnONP with mechanism of ROS formation and their cytotoxicity to normal and cancerous cells.
