The aqueous solubility of 14 organic solutes has been calculated from their octanol/water partition coefficient and from their solute activity coefficient in octanol at infinite dilution. The solute activity coefficients were calculated from the Flory-Huggins and Hildebrand-Scatchard (FH-HS) equations and were found to be in good agreement with the activity coefficients determined from GC specific retention volume measurements. The calculated solubilities were in good agreement with the experimental solubilities.

Limited aqueous solubility is a major hurdle resulting in poor and variable oral bioavailability, high doses, side effects, and the suboptimal therapeutic efficacy of sorafenib (SRF). In this study, we developed SRF-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (SRF-SLNs) and lipid core-chitosan shell hybrid nanoparticles (CS-SRF-SLNs) to improve the oral absorption of SRF. SRF-SLNs were prepared using a stearyl alcohol core stabilized with a surfactant mixture, followed by surface decoration with chitosan to form CS-SRF-SLNs.

The synthesis of polyferrocenyldimethylsilane-b-poly(L-glutamic acid) block copolymers was systematically explored. Rod-like and plate-like micelles were prepared from self-assembly of the block copolymers in aqueous solution with two different approaches. In a dissolution-dialysis approach, micelles were prepared by dissolving a block copolymer sample in excess aqueous base followed by the dialysis of the solution against water.

Triclosan (TCS) is used as an antibacterial agent in various products. One of the major issues associated with TCS is its limited solubility in aqueous media, which can reduce its effectiveness against bacteria. In this study, we enhanced the aqueous solubility and antibacterial activity of TCS by using a re-dispersible emulsion powder stabilized with gold nanoparticles (GNPs).

Combining polysaccharides with polypeptides enables growth of diverse nanostructures with minimal toxicity, low immune response, and potential biodegradability. However, examples of nanostructures combining polysaccharides with polypeptides are limited due to synthetic difficulties and related issues of solubility, purification, and characterization, with previous reports of polysaccharide-block-polypeptide block copolymers requiring methods such as polymer-polymer coupling and post-polymerization modifications paired with difficult purification steps. Here, we synthesized dextran-block-poly(benzyl glutamate) block copolymers in water via polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) to form nanostructures in situ, studying their morphologies using experimental methods and molecular modeling.

There is an emerging quest for fabrication of water-soluble fluorescent silver nanoclusters (AgNCs) with long-lasting fluorescent properties and dimensional stability while being sustainable and functional. Thus, a well-known seed-mediated growth strategy has been developed to manufacture AgNCs supported onto carboxyl and aldehyde modified cellulose nanofiber (DATCNF) with ultra-small and intense fluorescence. The DATCNF acts as a reductant, template, and stabilizer while the protective ligand, 2-Mercaptonicotinic Acid (2-HMA), provides AgNCs with luminous characteristic and constrained size of 4.
