Preparation and characterization of nanoaggregates self-assembled by lithocholic acid and N-trimethyl modified chitosan derivatives.

A novel kind of chitosan derivatives (CS-LA-TM) were synthesized by grafting hydrophobic molecules of lithocholic acid (LA) and quaternization. CS-LA-TM and micelle-like self-aggregates were characterized by FTIR, 1H NMR, fluorescence spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The critical micelles concentration (CMC) ranging from 0.

[Study of alginate/chitosan microcapsules for immobilization of Escherichia coli DH5 alpha].

Objective proteins synthesized from genetically recombined Escherichia coli strain (E. coli) have been successfully produced by microbe fermentation, but complicated separation and purification steps always make against the maintenance of activities as well as increase the cost. Aiming at simplifying the process, an idea of administrating directly the microencapsulated genetically recombined E.
