    Synthesis and Structure-property Evaluation of Novel Cellulosic Polymers as Amorphous Solid Dispersion Matrices for Enhanced Oral Drug Delivery Haoyu Liu Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Macromolecular Science and Engineering Kevin J. Edgar, Chair Richey M. Davis Maren Roman Lynne S. Taylor S. Richard Turner December 2, 2013 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: cellulose ω-carboxyesters, amorphous solid dispersion, amphiphilicity, structure- property relationship, oral drug delivery Copyright © 2013 by Haoyu Liu Synthesis and Structure-property Evaluation of Novel Cellulosic Polymers as Amorphous Solid Dispersion Matrices for Enhanced Oral Drug Delivery Haoyu Liu ABSTRACT The use of amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) is an effective and increasingly widely adopted approach for solubility and bioavailability enhancement of hydrophobic drugs. Cellulose derivatives have strong potential as ASD polymers. We demonstrate herein design, synthesis and structure-property relationship characterization of a new series of organo-soluble cellulose ω- carboxyalkanoates for ASDs, by two different synthetic approaches. These carboxyl-containing cellulose mixed-esters possessed relatively high Tg values with sufficient ∆T versus ambient temperature, useful to prevent drug mobility and crystallization during storage or transport. Screening experiments were utilized to study the impact of ASD polymers including our new family of cellulose ω-carboxyesters on both nucleation induction time and crystal growth rate of three poorly soluble model drugs from supersaturated solutions. Attributed to relatively rigid structures and bulky substituent groups, cellulose derivatives were more significant crystallization inhibitors compared to the synthetic polymers. The effective cellulose ω-carboxyesters were identified as possessing a similar hydrophobicity to the drug molecule and high number of ionization groups.

  • Development of State-Of-The-Art Interfacially Polymerized Defect-Free
    Development of State-Of-The-Art Interfacially Polymerized Defect-Free Thin-Film Composite Membranes for Gas- and Liquid Separations Dissertation by Zain Ali (Bajwa) In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy King Abdullah University of Science and Technology Thuwal, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia © April, 2018 Zain Ali All Rights Reserved 2 EXAMINATION COMMITTEE PAGE The dissertation of Zain Ali is approved by the examination committee. Committee Chairperson: Prof. Ingo Pinnau Committee Members: Prof. Yu Han, Prof. Mohamed Eddaoudi, Prof. Sandra Kentish. 3 ABSTRACT Development of State-Of-The-Art Interfacially Polymerized Defect-Free Thin-Film Composite Membranes for Gas- and Liquid-Separations Zain Ali This research was undertaken to develop state-of-the-art interfacially polymerized (IP) defect-free thin-film composite (TFC) membranes and understand their structure-function- performance relationships. Recent research showed the presence of defects in interfacially polymerized commercial membranes which potentially deter performance in liquid separations and render the membranes inadequate for gas separations. Firstly, a modified method (named KRO1) was developed to fabricate interfacially polymerized defect-free TFCs using m-phenylene diamine (MPD) and trimesoyl chloride (TMC). The systematic study revealed the ability to heal defects in-situ by tweaking the reaction time along with considerably improving the membrane crosslinking by controlling the organic solution temperature. The two discoveries were combined to produce highly crosslinked, defect-free MPD-TMC polyamide membranes which showed exceptional performance for separating H2 from CO2. Permeance and pure-gas selectivity of the membrane increased with temperature. H2 permeance of 350 GPU and H2/CO2 selectivity of ~100 at 140 °C were obtained, the highest reported performance for this application using polymeric materials to date.

    Synthesis and Characterization of Polycations with Various Structural Features for Nucleic Acid Delivery A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Yaoying Wu IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Theresa M. Reineke, Advisor July, 2014 © [Yaoying Wu] [2014] Acknowledgements It has been almost half a decade since I first stepped on the American soil. Over the years, so many people have provided me a great amount of help and support in many different ways, all of which makes my pursuit of PhD degree in United States possible. It would be impossible for me to thank all of them in the limited paragraph, but I would like to sincerely express my gratitude to a few individuals here, whom have been essential throughout my graduate school. It was my advisor, professor Theresa Reineke, who accepted my application for joining her group, which allowed me to pursuit my research interest in biomaterials. She provided me and the group the opportunities and freedom to explore new research areas, and to acquire new knowledge. I really appreciate all the guidance and support that she gave me. Dr. Adam Smith, who was my mentor for the first year of my graduate school, taught me a lot about research skills and life in graduate school. His generous advice guided me through my early days in Virginia Tech. I would like to thank all my friends, from both Virginia Tech and University of Minnesota, for their help on daily basis. I am especially grateful to Dr. Ingle Nilesh, Dr.

  • Synthesis and Applications of Cellulose Derivatives for Drug Delivery
    Synthesis and Applications of Cellulose Derivatives for Drug Delivery Joyann Audrene Marks Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Macromolecular Science and Engineering Kevin J. Edgar, Chair Maren Roman Lynne S. Taylor Judy S. Riffle S. Richard Turner August 5, 2015 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: pairwise blends, amorphous solid dispersion, oral drug delivery, cellulose esters, bioavailability, cationic cellulose, extrusion Copyright © 2015 by Joyann A. Marks Synthesis and Applications of Cellulose Derivatives for Drug Delivery Joyann Audrene Marks ABSTRACT In an effort to produce new derivatives of cellulose for drug delivery applications, methods were developed to regioselectively modify C-6 halo cellulose esters to produce cationic derivatives via nucleophilic substitution. Reaction of C-6 substituted bromo and iodo cellulose with trialkylated amines and phosphines produced new cationic ammonium and phosphonium cellulose derivatives which can be explored as delivery agents for nucleic acids, proteins and other anionic drug molecules. It was anticipated that these new derivatives would not only be capable of complexing anionic drug molecules but would have greatly improved aqueous solubility compared to their precursors. The phosphonium derivatives described in this work are an obvious example of such improved solubility properties. Given the importance of cellulose derivatives in making amorphous dispersions with critical drugs, it has also been important to analyze commercially available polymers for the potential impact in oral drug delivery formulations. To do so pairwise blends of cellulosics and synthetic polymers commonly used as excipients were tested for miscibility using techniques such as DSC, mDSC, FTIR and film clarity.
