    Sodium alginate and nanocellulose hydrogel as scaffold to in vitro 3D prostate cancer irradiated model
    2023 - SILVA, G.D.; SAKATA, S.K.; ASSIS, J.V.A.; VIEIRA, D.P.
    Introdução: Recently, traditional cell culture systems structured in 2 dimensions using monolayers of cells in culture media are being replaced by 3D structures, in which cells can be organized in spheroids. To obtain these structures, hydrogels can be used as permeable to gas and nutrients scaffolds, also providing physical support to cells. This work aimed to produce a double network hydrogel containing sodium alginate (SA) and nanocellulose (NC), obtained by irradiation of microcrystalline cellulose, and its ability to maintain in culture of human prostate adenocarcinoma. Objetivos: To analyze whether SA+NC gels can keep viable 3D LNCap (prostatic carcinoma) in vitro, with and without exposure to radiation (0 and 2Gy gamma). Métodos: 0.75g of microcrystalline cellulose (Sigma-Aldrich, 435236) dispersed in water were irradiated (300 kGy) (25 mm column height) in an electron beam source (Dynamitron® Job 188 ,RDI- Radiation Dynamics Inc.). The precipitated powder was washed in water by centrifugation. Nanocellulose pellet was added to a sodium alginate (2.5%) dissolved in PBS. LNCaP cells were maintained in RPMI 1640 medium in monolayers in culture flasks and controlled atmosphere (37º, 5% CO2). 24-well plates were used, pre-treated with Pluronic® F-127 solution (0.5g/mL in 2-propanol). The hydrophobic portions of Pluronic molecules were directed towards the center of the well, thus preventing cell adhesion to the culture plastic. In each well 1x105 cells were added, forming clusters of cells after 3 days. Clusters were removed and added to the hydrogel seeded in 96-well plates. Crosslinking was achieved using 100 μL of 2mM CaCl2 solution on top of the gels. After gelation, the saline solution was removed and the wells received 100μL of culture medium and were submitted to gamma irradiation with doses of 0 and 2 Gy (GammaCell, Canada), and further kept in incubator for 24h. Medium was replaced by fresh medium with Hoescht 33342 (10mg/mL) and SYTOX? Green (5mM) and kept in an incubator for 30 minutes. Plates were imaged in an INCell Analyzer 2500HS and images were obtained to determine the dead cell count. Resultados: Visual evidence of spheroids enclosed in gels showed increased cell viability in SA+NC comparing to SA gels only. No visual differences were observed in irradiated (2Gy) spheroids. Conclusão: SA+NC gels can sustain cell viability and cause no changes in cell radioresistance, being a suitable model to in vitro studies.

    Production of a double-network hydrogel using sodium alginate and nano-structured cellulose to 3D cell cultures
    2023 - SILVA, GIOVANA D. da; SAKATA, SOLANGE K.; ASSIS, JOAO V.A. de; SANTOS, ESTHER C. dos; PRUDENTE, SULEYNA R.; RODRIGUES, ALEX A.; FALCAO, PATRICIA L.; VIEIRA, DANIEL P.
    Introduction and objective 2D cell cultures have limitations regarding on tissue representativity. 3D cell cultures can use hydrogels of alginate with cellulose with adequate viscoelasticity properties for cell growth, being from plant sources, abundant and low cost. This work consisted of producing a biocompatible gel from plant sources for threedimensional cultures, promoting polymeric matrices for cells, helping in cell interactions and nutrient transport, providing mechanical support, self-assembly capacity, biodegradation, ability to reticulation, stability control and mechanical resistance. Methodology Transformation of microcrystalline cellulose into nanofibers was achieved freezing aqueous suspensions on presence of 4M NaOH to proper dissociation of fibers. To obtain suitable dispersion, sodium citrate was added to prevent aggregation. Suspensions were analyzed by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Zeta Potential. For cell viability analysis, murine fibroblastic cell lines (NIH/3T3) were plated (2.5 x 105 cells per well) 24-well plate embedded in gel (100µL). Results and discussion The analysis of cellulose suspensions through SEM, showed a significant change in the size and shape of the structures after hydrolysis, indicating the obtention of structures on a nanometric scale. For the analysis of cellulose aggregation, the zeta potential values indicated that after the addition of sodium citrate, greater dispersion was obtained between the cellulose structures, enabling resistance to the structure in a uniform way. FTIR analysis showed changes in the covalent bonds of the products. Cell viability assay showed structures containing fibroblast cells, alginate and cellulose with 1 cycle of freezing with citrate showed an intact gel structure, with cell aggregates indicating possible cell growth, while the one with only alginate showed dead cells and showed that the hydrogel did not induce cellular toxicity. These results suggest that the hydrolysis of microcrystalline cellulose can lead to obtaining cellulose nanofibers with potential for applications in tissue engineering. Conclusions Hydrogels, they have potential for applications in tissue engineering, since they have mechanical resistance and cell viability. In addition, hydrogels from exclusively vegetable sources, since these are in large quantity, low cost and environmental impact, given that the alginate comes from brown algae found in several coastal regions and the cellulose can be extracted from renewable sources or various vegetable waste from agroindustry.

    Aptasensing of beta-amyloid (Aβ(1− 42)) by a 3D-printed platform integrated with leaf-shaped gold nanodendrites
    2023 - NEGAHDARY, MASOUD; VELOSO, WILLIAM B.; BACIL, RAPHAEL P.; BUORO, RAFAEL M.; GUTZ, IVANO G.R.; PAIXAO, THIAGO R.L.C.; LAGO, CLAUDIMIR L. do; SAKATA, SOLANGE K.; MELONI, GABRIEL N.; FRANCA, MESAQUE C.; OLIVEIRA, THAWAN G. de; AMEKU, WILSON A.; DURAZZO, MICHELANGELO; ANGNES, LUCIO
    In this study, beta-amyloid (Aβ(1− 42)), an essential biomarker for diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease (AD), was detected via an electrochemical aptasensing platform. Here, an innovative signal transducer was developed using a CO2 laser-ablated 3D-printed electrode modified with leaf-shaped gold nanodendrites (LSG NDs, mean diameter: ~ 92 nm), which could provide an efficient interface for immobilizing aptamer strands. The modified electrode with LSG NDs exhibited an enhancement in its electrochemically active surface area about 7 times, compared with the bare electrode. This modification showed that the size, morphology, and distributions of LSG NDs in amplifying electrochemical signals might effectively provide a highly sensitive infrastructure for analyte detection. The strands of a thiol-functionalized aptamer sequence interacted with the gold surface, which created an optimized biointerface to detect Aβ(1− 42) in a linear range from 0.1 pg mL− 1 to 10 ng mL− 1 (limit of detection (LOD): 84 fg mL− 1 , (S/N = 3)). The developed aptasensor confirmed satisfactory stability, desired reproducibility and regeneration, and minimal impact of interfering agents. In addition, the application of this aptasensor was monitored via an assay of spiked analyte concentrations in 20 samples, including cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and human serum.

    2023 - NEGAHDARY, MASOUD; HIRATA, MARIO H.; SAKATA, SOLANGE K.; CICONELLI, ROZANA M.; BASTOS, GISELE M.; BORGES, JESSICA B.; THUROW, HELENA S.; SILVEIRA JUNIOR, ALCEU T.; SAMPAIO, MARCELO F.; GUIMARAES, LARISSA B.; MAEDA, BRUNO S.; ANGNES, LUCIO
    In this research, by using aptamer-conjugated gold nanoparticles (aptamer-AuNPs) and a modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and Acropora-like gold (ALG) nanostructure, a sandwich-like system provided for sensitive detection of heat shock protein 70 kDa (HSP70), which applied as a functional biomarker in diagnosis/prognosis of COVID-19. Initially, the surface of the GCE was improved with rGO and ALG nanostructures, respectively. Then, an aptamer sequence as the first part of the bioreceptor was covalently bound on the surface of the GCE/rGO/ALG nanostructures. After adding the analyte, the second part of the bioreceptor (aptamer-AuNPs) was immobilized on the electrode surface to improve the diagnostic performance. The designed aptasensor detected HSP70 in a wide linear range, from 5 pg mL−1 to 75 ng mL−1, with a limit of detection (LOD) of ∼2 pg mL−1. The aptasensor was stable for 3 weeks and applicable in detecting 40 real plasma samples of COVID-19 patients. The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were 90% and 85%, respectively, compared with the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method.

    Reduced graphene oxide obtained by gamma radiation to produce screen printed glucose biosensor
    2022 - SAKATA, SOLANGE; JACOVONE, RAYNARA M.S.; DUARTE, MIGUEL; GARCIA, RAFAEL; ANGNES, LUCIO
    Screen printed biosensor has attracted attention as point care device due to its fast and accurate response in a compact portable platform. Due the high electrical carrier mobility, reduced graphene oxide (rGO) has been used to modify the working electrode surface and increase the biosensor sensibility. However, there are some disadvantages during the reduction of graphene oxide that include the use of chemical reductants that need to be removed after the reaction and the toxic residues. The purification usually requires tedious steps and a lot of efforts to recover the nanomaterial. In this work screen printed carbon electrode (SPCE) was modified using rGO produced by gamma radiation. Graphene oxide (GO) was prepared by modified Hummers and the reduction was performed in a water/isopropanol solution and inert medium. Sample was irradiated in the Multipurpose Gamma Irradiation Facility at Radiation Technology Center from Nuclear and Energy Research Institute (IPEN/CNEN-SP), a category IV gamma irradiator by the IAEA classification under the radiation dose at 80,0 kGy. rGO characterization was performed by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). From the XRD patterns: the 2θ the peak located at 11o shift to 23o, demonstrating the reduction of GO to rGO. The decrease of the distance between layers was attributed on partial remove of the oxygen groups from GO. For the glucose biosensor preparation, first of all, the SPCE (Metrohm, model 6. 1208. 110) was modified by drop-coating rGO solution and dried at room temperature for 24h. Then, for Glucose Oxidase (GOx) immobilization, the carboxylic groups from rGO were activated using N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) and 1-Ethyl-3-(3-dimethyalaminopropyl) carbodiimide (EDC) for 30 min at room temperature, followed by adding GOx 10KU from A. niger Type II (5mg/mL). The solution was incubated at 4oC overnight. SEM images showed GOx onto SPCE surface and the electrocatalysis of GOx toward glucose was measured to confirm the enzymatic activity. For electrochemical studies, cyclic voltammetry was carried out in a Portable Potentiostat model 910 PSTAT mini, Metrohm and PSTAT software. The fabricated amperiometric biosensor detects glucose ranged from 1mM to 5mM with LOD of 0.9 mM at 0.70V. Moreover, the biosensor exhibited repeatability, reproducibility and practicability. This study showed that rGO synthesized by gamma radiation without any further purification is a simple and sustainable approach to fabricate electrode for biosensors.

    The influence of gamma radiation doses on rGO/Ni for energy storage applications
    2022 - GARCIA, RAFAEL H.L.; CARNEIRO, FELIPE W.; JACOVONE, RAYNARA M.S.; SAKATA, SOLANGE K.; ANGNES, LUCIO
    Metallic nanoparticles (MN) have been the subject of intense research in the last decades because of their high catalytic activity, associated with its large surface-to-volume ratio. However, it is difficult to obtain pure active metal nanoparticles surfaces, since its contamination and aggregation frequently result in deactivation and loss of catalytic activities. MN immobilization can minimize these effects. Thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) make this material an excellent candidate for MN support for batteries and supercapacitors. The production of metallic nanoparticles on rGO surface based on gamma radiation allows less formation of residual impurities, absence of reducing agents, uniform mass production, no aggregation and low costs. Herein, we demonstrated a green and efficient one-step, gamma radiation-based method for Ni/rGO production. Graphene oxide (GO) was prepared by modified Hummers method. Ni+2 and graphene oxide reduction were performed in water/isopropanol solution (1:1) under inert medium. Samples were irradiated in the Multipurpose Gamma Irradiation Facility at CETER/IPEN/CNEN-SP, a category IV gamma irradiator by the IAEA classification, in radiations doses of 20, 40, and 80 kGy, at 10 kGy/h. From X-ray diffraction, the correlation between radiation doses and crystallite size was evaluated. For supercapacitor studies, cyclic voltammetry was carried out in a screen printed carbon electrode (SPCE) in K₄[Fe(CN)₆]. The working electrode was modified with produced rGO-Ni 80 kGy, Pt wire was used as counter and Ag/AgCl as reference electrode. Experiments were performed in KOH 1.0 M. Results showed that produced Ni/rGO has good potential to be used in electrochemical devices such as supercapacitors or batteries.

    2022 - GALDINO, G.S.; RODRIGUES, W.C.; CRUZ, P.D.; CASINI, J.S.; SAKATA, S.K.; FARIA, R.N.
    The storage capacity of electric double layer capacitors or electrochemical supercapacitors with electrolytes based on deep eutectic solvents (DES) composed of L-lactic acid with several hydrogen bond acceptors (nicotinamide, L-alanine, ammonium acetate, sodium acetate, choline chloride, amino acetic acid) with a molar ratio of 7:1 have been investigated. A DES based on urea and choline chloride with at a molar ration of 2:1 has also been included for comparison. The electrochemical supercapacitors were prepared using commercial activated carbon electrodes after removing the volatile organic electrolyte with a vacuum pump. The characteristics of the electrochemical supercapacitors were determined by cyclic voltammetry at temperature room temperature and also after heating at 353 K using scan rates that varied from 2 to 25 mVs-1. Lowest scan rate led to higher specific capacitance of 150±8 Fg-1 with a maximum applied potential of 1.7 V for the urea and choline chloride DES with a molar ration of 2:1. The lactic acid with all the hydrogen bond acceptors with a molar ratio 7:1 it has been necessary to increase the temperature above room temperature to improve the specific capacitance.

    Characteristics of electric double layer capacitors produced with electrolytes based on deep eutectic solvents
    2022 - GALDINO, G.S.; RODRIGUES, W.C.; CRUZ, P.D.; CASINI, J.S.; SAKATA, S.K.; FARIA, R.N.
    The storage capacity of electric double layer capacitors or supercapacitors with electrolytes based on deep eutectic solvents (DES) has been investigated in this study. DES composed of L-lactic acid with nicotinamide, L-alanine, ammonium acetate, sodium acetate and choline chloride have all been prepared at a molar ratio of 7:1. Furthermore, urea with choline chloride at a molar ratio of 2:1 has also been used as electrolyte for the electrochemical supercapacitors. The DES supercapacitors were prepared using commercial activated carbon electrodes after removing the volatile organic electrolyte with back-pumping vacuum. The electric characteristics of these supercapacitors with DES electrolytes were determined by cyclic voltammetry at room temperature and above up to 80°C. The cyclic voltammetry scan rates were varied from 2 to 25 mVs-1. The lowest scan rate led to a high specific capacitance of 150±8 Fg-1 for urea with choline chloride at a molar ratio of 2:1 and using a maximum applied potential of 1.7 V. For higher molar ratio (7:1) of Llactic acid with the others hydrogen bond acceptors (HBA) it was necessary to increase the temperature above room temperature to improve the specific capacitance. The best results have been obtained with two solids (urea and choline chloride) as starting compounds for preparing the DES. Equivalent series resistances (ESR) have also been determined in this work employing galvanostatic cycling tests with current densities between 2 and 20 mAg-1.

    Redução do oxido de grafeno via radiação ionizante
    2022 - SAKATA, SOLANGE K.; JACOVONE, RAYNARA M.S.
    A radiação ionizante, o que inclui a radiação gama e feixe de elétrons, é considerada como “síntese verde” e “ambientalmente amigável” e vem se destacando como uma promissora rota sintética para obter óxido de grafeno reduzido. Essas reações ocorrem em meio aquoso, a temperatura e pressão ambiente, sem o uso de redutores tóxicos e geração de resíduos químicos tóxicos. Neste capítulo é apresentado uma compilação de estudos sobre redução do óxido de grafeno via radiação ionizante reportados na literatura na última década. A redução parcial do óxido de grafeno produz óxido de grafeno reduzido (rOG), um nanomaterial que combina as propriedades do grafeno e do óxido de grafeno: uma excelente condutividade elétrica e térmica e os demais grupos de oxigênio que permitem sua funcionalização. Na literatura, são descritas diversas rotas sintéticas para produzir rOG: por método químico, térmico, eletroquímico, radiação não ionizante e biocatalíticas.
