A Different Microbiome Gene Repertoire in the Airways of Cystic Fibrosis Patients with Severe Lung Disease Supplementary Materials: A Different Microbiome Gene Repertoire in the Airways of Cystic Fibrosis Patients with Severe Lung Disease S1. Library preparation and NGS sequencing Qualified DNA samples were used to prepare sequence library with an insert size of 180 bp. First of all, purified DNA samples were sheared into smaller fragments by Nebulization technique. Then the overhangs resulting from fragmentation were converted into blunt ends by using T4 DNA polymerase, Klenow Fragment and T4 Polynucleotide Kinase. After adding an ‘A’ base to the 3' end of the blunt phosphorylated DNA fragments, adapters were ligated to the ends of the DNA fragments. After that, too short fragments were removed using Ampure beads. The qualified library was used for sequencing with 2G raw data output per sample and a length of 100bp per read. After raw data generation, low quality reads were removed. Data filtration was done by BGI custom scripts, and listed as follows: 1. removing reads with 3 N; 2. removing reads contaminated by adapter; 3. removing reads with a certain proportion of low quality bases (40% as default, parameter setting at 36 bp); 4. removing duplication contamination. Finally, the clean data obtained were used for subsequent bioinformatic analysis. The library preparation procedures, as well as the sequencing pipeline described here were implemented and performed by the Beijing Genomics Institute (BGI, Shenzhen, Guangdong, China). Additional details about the bioinformatics pipeline used in this work including information about raw data control were reported in the main text (Material and Methods section) and in S2 Table. S2.

Polymer chains consisting of water-soluble polyacrylamides, hydrophobically modified with low amounts of N,N-dihexylacrylamide (1, 2, 3 and 4 mol%) were prepared via free radical micellar polymerization. The properties of these polymers, with respect to the concentration of hydrophobic groups, using steady-flow and oscillatory experiments were compared. An increase of relaxation time (TR) and modulus plateau (G0) was observed in all samples studied. Two different regimes can be clearly distinguished: a first unentangled regime where the viscosity increase rate strongly depends on hydrophobic content and a second entangled regime where the viscosity follows a scaling behavior of the polymer concentration with an exponent close to 4. Introduction Water-soluble polymers are of great interest from the scientific as well as the technological point of view. These polymers have been subjected to extensive research [1]. Water-soluble polymers are present in the composition of different types of industrial formulations as stabilizing, flocculants, absorbent, emulsifiers, thickeners, etc.

  • Prediction of Metabolic Stability and Bioavailability with Bioisosteric Replacements
    Prediction of Metabolic Stability and Bioavailability with Bioisosteric Replacements Alison Pui Ki Choy Clare College University of Cambridge Date of submission: September 2017 This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Prediction of Metabolic Stability and Bioavailability with Bioisosteric Replacements Alison Pui Ki Choy Abstract Drug development is a long and expensive process. Potential drug candidates can fail clinical trials due to numerous issues, including metabolic stability and efficacy issues, wasting years of research effort and resource. This thesis detailed the development of in silico methods to predict the metabolic stability of structures and their bioavailability. Coralie Atom-based Statistical SOM Identifier (CASSI) is a site of metabolism (SOM) predictor which provides a SOM prediction based on statistical information gathered about previously seen atoms present in similar environments. CASSI is a real-time SOM predictor accessible via graphical user interface (GUI), allowing users to view the prediction results and likelihood of each atom to undergo different types of metabolic transformation. Fast Metabolizer (FAME)1 is a ligand-based SOM predictor developed around the same time by Kirchmair et al. In the course of the evaluation of CASSI and FAME performance, the two concepts were combined to produce FamePrint. FamePrint is a tool developed within the Coralie Cheminformatics Platform developed by Lhasa Limited. which can carry out SOM predictions, as well as bioisosteric replacement identification. Same as CASSI, this is available via the Coralie application GUI. The bioavailability issues caused by the metabolic enzyme, cytochrome P450 3A4, and transporter protein P-gylcoprotein are also investigated in this work, along with the potential synergistic relationship between the two systems.

Received: 12 May 2020; Accepted: 25 May 2020; Published: 28 May 2020 Abstract: This paper presents a nonionic surfactant in the anionic surfactant pair (ternary mixture) that influences the hydrophobicity of the alkaline–surfactant–polymer (ASP) slug within low-salinity formation water, an environment that constrains optimal designs of the salinity gradient and phase types. The hydrophobicity effectively reduced the optimum salinity, but achieving as much by mixing various surfactants has been challenging. We conducted a phase behavior test and a coreflooding test, and the results prove the effectiveness of the nonionic surfactant in enlarging the chemical applicability by making ASP flooding more hydrophobic. The proposed ASP mixture consisted of 0.2 wt% sodium carbonate, 0.25 wt% anionic surfactant pair, and 0.2 wt% nonionic surfactant, and 0.15 wt% hydrolyzed polyacrylamide. The nonionic surfactant decreased the optimum salinity to 1.1 wt% NaCl compared to the 1.7 wt% NaCl of the reference case with heavy alcohol present instead of the nonionic surfactant.

The therapeutic and drug-carrying potential of these materials requires a fundamental understanding of their interactions with lipid bilayers. In this work, we use amphiphilic polypeptoids with up to 100 monomeric units where a significant fraction (26%) of the nitrogen atoms are functionalized with decyl groups (hydrophobes) that insert into the lipid bilayer through the hydrophobic effect. These hydrophobically modified polypeptoids (HMPs) insert their hydrophobes into lipid bilayers creating instabilities that lead to the rupture of vesicles. At low HMP concentrations, such rupture leads to the creation of large fragments which remarkably anchor to intact vesicles through the hydrophobic effect. At high HMP concentrations, all vesicles rupture to smaller HMP−lipid fragments of the order of 10 nm. We show that the technique for such nanoscale polymer−lipid fragments can be exploited to sustain highly hydrophobic drug species in solution. Using the kinase inhibitor, Sorafenib as a model drug, it is shown that HMP−lipid fragments containing the drug can efficiently enter a hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (Huh 7.5), indicating the use of such fragments as drug delivery nanocarriers.
