Abstract:
The isolated cymbidium mosaic virus (CMV) is one of the most wide-spread and dangerous pathogens that infects promising varieties of orchids. It causes characteristic symptoms on orchid plants, which are manifested in the form of a mosaic. Over time, these areas are necrotized, leading to the stop of flowering the plants and reducing their decorative value. The CyMV is not spread by insects-carriers, but is transmitted by the mechanical inoculation with juice. Electron microscopy revealed flexible filamentous viral particles with a length of about 500 nm. The purified viral preparation is sedimented with a single peak with a sedimentation coefficient of 142S. The floating density of the virus in the preformed CsCl gradient corresponded to 1.3 g/cm3. The electrophoretic analysis of proteins in polyacrylamide gel under denatured conditions showed the presence of two polypeptides with molecular weights of 27 and 31 kDa. RNA CyMV has a molecular weight of 2 · 106 Da. In the translation system of rabbit reticulocytes in vitro, a protein with a molecular weight of about 27 kDa is synthesized. The obtained data allow us to refer CyMV to the group of potexviruses.

Abstract:
AbstractMacromolecules are essential cellular components in biological systems responsible for performing a large number of functions that are necessary for growth and perseverance of living organisms. Proteins, lipids and carbohydrates are three major classes of biological macromolecules. To predict the structure, function, and behaviour of any cluster of macromolecules, it is necessary to understand the interaction between them and other components through basic principles of chemistry and physics. An important number of macromolecules are present in mixtures with surfactants, where a combination of hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions is responsible for the specific properties of any solution. It has been demonstrated that surfactants can help the formation of helices in some proteins thereby promoting protein structure formation. On the other hand, there is extensive research towards the use of surfactants to solubilize drugs and pharmaceuticals; therefore, it is evident that the interaction between surfactants with macromolecules is important for many applications which includes environmental processes and the pharmaceutical industry. In this review, we describe the properties of different types of surfactants that are relevant for their physicochemical interactions with biological macromolecules, from macromolecules–surfactant complexes to hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions.

Abstract:
Oligonucleotides containing the modification 2-fluoro-2-deoxy-beta-D-arabinose (2'F-ANA) were synthesized via solid phase synthesis in order to investigate their ability to bind to nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). The ability of this modification to serve as a suitable antisense oligonucleotide construct was also evaluated.
All four nucleobase monomers (thymine, cytosine, adenine and guanine) were prepared for solid phase oligonucleotide synthesis, from which homopolymeric and heteropolymeric base sequences were assembled. These molecules bound with very good affinities to both DNA and RNA targets. Structural studies via NMR experiments demonstrated that in a 2'F-ANA/RNA duplex the 2'F-ANA residues adopt an O4' -endo conformation, similar to what has been proposed for the structure of DNA in a DNA/RNA hybrid.
A 2'F-ANA oligopyrimidylate formed a triple-helical complex with duplex DNA and hybrid DNA(Pu):RNA(Py) with an affinity higher than that of a corresponding DNA strand. Also, a cytosine-rich 2' F-ANA strand was found to form a complex at acidic pH which has properties similar to that of i-motif DNA.
Finally, 2'F-ANA strands when hybridized to RNA were found to activate RNase H, an enzyme that is involved in the mechanism of action of antisense drugs. 2'F-ANA is the first example of an antisense analogue that demonstrates improved binding to RNA relative to DNA and still retains the ability to elicit RNase H activity.

Abstract:
Bacillus anthracis has been classified as one of the most dangerous bioterrorism agents causing high mortality rates in short periods of time. Anthrax spores are extremely resistant to chemical and environmental factors, and have the ability to return into a vegetative (virulent) state during the process of germination. Previous research has suggested that spores can be eradicated with common disinfectants after germination and release of spore coats. During germination, the spore coat is degraded, making the spore susceptible to penetration of chemicals into the spore core. While previous research has focused on a qualitative understanding of germination of spores by obtaining high-resolutions images of spore coats to understand how protein coat layers change during germination, very few studies have evaluated changes in mechanical properties of spores during germination, and how germination affects virulence of macrophages. In this study, we performed a series of in vitro experiments to do an in-depth analysis of germination and virulence of B. anthracis. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used to investigate changes in spore surface properties during germination including morphology, roughness, elasticity, and spring constant. AFM results suggested that germination mechanisms depend on germinants used to trigger germination and roughness of Bacillus species increase during germination. In addition, the elasticity and spring cell constant of B. anthracis spores are affected during germination since the elastic moduli and cell spring constant values decreased with time as the spore was germinating, making the cells more susceptible. Spore killing was also tested both in sporulated and vegetative B. anthracis using the antimicrobial peptide chrysophsin-3 and the surfactant dodecylamine (DDA). Both killing agents were capable of eradicating B. anthracis spores, but more killing was observed for spores that were germinating or had become vegetative. The presence of germinant receptors from the Ger operon and its role on germination kinetics of B. anthracis was also investigated. The germination of mutant spores that carried one receptor or lacked all germinant receptors was compared to the germination kinetics of wild-type B. anthracis. Our results suggest that germination of spores is modified by the presence or absence of germinant receptors. Furthermore, the mutant B. anthracis strain lacking all receptors germinated suggesting that other receptor independent pathways may exist in B. anthracis. Finally the ability of B. anthracis to adhere, grow, and invade macrophages was investigated. Invasion of macrophages by B. anthracis was dependent on germinant receptors and the ability of spores to germinate and multiply. Our results suggest that macrophages were not capable of killing infecting spores, and on the contrary, germination of spores inside macrophages caused the lysis of macrophages. An uncontrolled release of cytokines by macrophages was elicited by spores and germinated B. anthracis. Our study helps understand the process of germination of B. anthracis spores at a nanomolecular level. Our investigation may be a valuable tool in the design and development of antisporal compounds.

Abstract:
The development of treatment processes to reduce or reuse sewage sludge is crucial for a proper environmental management. Segregating primary from secondary sludge allows for better reuse of secondary sludge, since digested secondary sludge is better suited for agricultural application, containing about double concentration in nutrients but significantly less contaminants. However, secondary sludge (also called waste activated sludge (WAS)) is difficult to dewater compared with primary sludge due to the existence of colloidal materials and extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs), which strongly retain water. WAS is also more difficult to digest under anaerobic conditions due to the presence of glycan strands in microbial cell walls. The low dewaterability and digestibility of WAS can be improved by applying treatments, which can partially disintegrate the WAS by disrupting flocs and cells and solubilising the EPSs. The treatments studied in this thesis were ultrasound, low-temperature thermal and alkali with NaOH. Specifically, it has been analysed the effect of the aforementioned treatment on WAS rheology, dewatering, hygienisation and anaerobic digestion. Rheology is the study of stress-strain relationships of viscoelastic materials. All the sludges analysed (untreated and treated) behaved as non-Newtonian pseudoplastic fluids, which indicates that the viscosity decreases with the applied shear rate. The sludges were also thixotropic (showing a hysteresis area in the plot of stress versus shear rate), which means that the viscosity is time dependent. The three aforementioned treatments resulted in the reduction of the steady state viscosity and the hysteresis area. Complementarily, a rheological structural model was proposed to examine the variations in the thixotropic behaviour of WAS after the application of the treatments. Sludge dewatering is essential to obtain a product dry enough to allow a reduction in storage volume. The three conditions of the thermal treatment (60, 80 and 90 ºC; 1 h, including the heating time to reach the temperature) and the higher intensities of ultrasound (27,000 kJ/kg TS) and alkali (157 g NaOH/kg TS) treatments improved sludge dewatering by centrifugation. To further evaluate the effect of treatments on the sludge dewatering, the EPSs contained in sludge were extracted and characterised. The EPSs were fractionated to generate two different EPS fractions: loosely bound EPSs (LB-EPSs) and tightly bound EPSs (TB-EPSs), where the latter is the innermost fraction and harder to release. An analysis of the untreated sludge revealed that the proteins, followed by the humic acids and polysaccharides, were the major constituents of the EPSs. Each of these components was primarily observed in the TB-EPS fraction. The treatments, particularly the alkali treatment, thoroughly solubilised the EPS, as indicated by the increase in the TOC, protein, humic acid and polysaccharide contents in the LB-EPS fraction. As a result, the dewaterability of WAS was improved. Hygienisation of the sludge is of uttermost importance if the sludge is intended for agriculture. The level of hygienisation was evaluated using three indicator organisms: Escherichia coli, somatic coliphages (SOMCPH) and spores of sulfite-reducing clostridia (SSRC). The thermal treatment at 80 ºC and the alkali treatment at 157 g NaOH kg TS allowed the hygienisation of the sludge, thus satisfying normal levels accepted by the EPA and the 3rd official draft from the EU. Conversely, the conditions tested for the ultrasound treatment barely reduced the levels of microbial indicators. Mesophilic anaerobic digestion is a widely used method to stabilise the sludge. The alkali pre-treatment (157 g NaOH/kg TS) exhibited the greatest methane production increase (34%) followed by the ultrasonication (27,000 kJ/kg TS; 13%), whereas the thermal pre-treatment (80 ºC, 15 min) presented a methane potential similar to the untreated sludge. However, the use of NaOH as a pre-treatment is rather limited because of the rising sodium concentration in the digester.
El desarrollo de procesos para la reducción o reutilización de los lodos resulta determinante para una apropiada gestión medioambiental. Tratando por separado el lodo activado del primario (y no la mezcla como suele hacerse) se favorece el uso del lodo activado en agricultura tras su digestión, ya que el lodo activado contiene el doble de nutrientes y menor carga contaminante que el primario. No obstante, el lodo activado (también denominado lodo secundario o biológico) es más difícil de deshidratar que el primario, ya que presenta una estructura interna organizada de flóculos unidos por las sustancias poliméricas extracelulares (EPSs, por sus siglas en inglés), las cuales atrapan el agua. En este contexto, la reología, que es la ciencia que estudia las relaciones entre la fuerza y la deformación de los materiales, es una herramienta muy útil para la caracterización de la viscosidad o estructura interna de los lodos. El lodo activado es también más difícil de digerir anaeróbicamente debido a las cadenas de glicanos presentes en las paredes celulares de las bacterias. En resumen, para poder deshidratar y digerir un lodo activado será necesario acondicionarlo previamente mediante tratamientos, con el fin de solubilizar las EPSs y aumentar su biodegradabilidad. Si además el lodo quiere destinarse a agricultura deberá estar higienizado. En esta tesis se ha estudiado el efecto de tres tratamientos (ultrasonido, térmico a baja temperatura y alcalino con NaOH) sobre la reología, deshidratación, higienización y digestión anaerobia de lodos activados. Los tres tratamientos redujeron considerablemente la viscosidad del lodo debido a la solubilización de la las EPSs. Así mismo, la solubilización de la EPSs facilitó la expulsión del agua confinada dentro de los flóculos del lodo, mejorando la deshidratación mediante centrifugación. El tratamiento alcalino con dosis de NaOH elevadas fue el que más EPSs solubilizó, de manera que fue el que permitió extraer más agua y el que más aumentó la producción de metano, además de higienizar el lodo. No obstante, este tratamiento tiene el inconveniente de incrementar la concentración de sodio en el digestor, lo cual podría llegar a inhibir el proceso de digestión. Los ultrasonidos redujeron notablemente la viscosidad, además de mejorar la deshidratación y la digestión del lodo. Sin embargo, este tratamiento no fue capaz de higienizar el lodo. El tratamiento térmico a baja temperatura aumentó muy ligeramente la producción de metano (posiblemente debido al corto tiempo de exposición) y permitió deshidratar e higienizar el lodo.

Abstract:
The physicochemical properties of non-ionic surfactant vesicles (NSV's), formed from the non-ionic surfactants I. II and IV (monoalkyl and dialkyl polyglyceryl ethers), were examined. The effects of incorporating polyoxyethylene cholesteryl ethers and charged molecules into the vesicular bilayer on these properties were examined and their potential as drug delivery vehicles for doxorubicin (DOX) investigated. The size and aqueous entrapment volume of vesicles were related to the preparation method, although charged molecules or increasing the hydrophilicity did affect both parameters. The vesicular surface charge, due to adsorbed hydroxyl ions or incorporated charged molecules, was reduced as the polyoxyethylene chain length of incorporated cholesteryl ethers was increased. The vesicular charge of vesicles containing cholesteryl polyoxyethylene(24)ether (SOL24) was unaffected by the encapsulation of DOX but encapsulation of the drug in positively charged vesicles markedly affected the charge against pH profile. Increasing the vesicular cholesterol content reduced the enthalpy of the phase transition, ultimately abolishing the peak between 33-50mol% cholesterol, while the peak shape was altered by the addition of charged molecules. Vesicular aggregation was induced by NaCl, although incorporation of charged molecules or SOL24 to the vesicular bilayer prevented this flocculation. DOX release from drug loaded vesicles was markedly reduced by the inclusion of cholesterol or stearylamine (SA) in the bilayer, while the incorporation of SOL24 produced a slight reduction. Empty vesicles containing SOL24 and SA molecules interacted with DOX molecules; SOL24 produced an immediate and reversible interaction and SA produced a delayed but apparently irreversible interaction. Administration of DOX loaded, SOL24 containing vesicles to mice reduced the peak cardiac concentration and produced a higher terminal plasma concentration compared with free drug. The co-administration of free drug with empty vesicles increased drug concentrations in the heart and kidney. The intravenous injection of DOX loaded. SA containing vesicles into mice bearing a subcutaneously implanted ROS tumour gave inconclusive results due to analytical problems, although the injection of empty vesicles with free drug behaved similarly to free drug alone. Drug loaded vesicles were much less effective at retarding tumour growth than either of the free drug containing samples despite fluorescence photomicrographs showing the majority of the vesicles residing within the tumour vasculature.

Abstract:
For the last two decades, breakthrough research has been going on in all aspects of materials science at accelerated pace. New materials of unprecedented functionality and performance are being developed and characterized. Moreover, the new materials with improved functionality are in high demand in the marketplace and this need increases in an exponential way for the new materials of desired functionality and performance. Here we show the application of combined computational and cheminformatics methods in various materials properties prediction, including organometallic materials, polymeric materials and nanomaterials. Since most of the materials are complex entities from a chemical point of view, the investigation of them requires an interdisciplinary approach, involving multiple aspects ranging from physics and chemistry to biology and informatics. In this report we show how the combination of computational chemistry, available experimental data, machine learning and cheminformatics approaches can help in materials research and properties assessment, such as physico-chemical properties, toxicity, and biological activity. We discuss here a few case studies where data-driven models developed to reveal the relationships between the physicochemical properties, biological activity and structural characteristics, by application quantum chemical, protein-ligand docking, cheminformatics approaches and developed nanodescriptors.

"Physicochemical Characterization of the Rejected Waste From the Mechanical and Biological Treatment of Municipal Solid Waste."

Abstract:
Abstract Mechanical and Biological Treatment units (MBT), are a key element in the management of municipal solid waste as they are the preferred route for minimization of the amount of waste delivered to landfills. However, taking into account the waste received by the MBT’s, it is observed that a significant part is sent to controlled landfills without any kind of valorization. Within this framework, a characterization of the rejected waste produced in one of these facilities was carried out in order to assess their potential for energy recovery. The rejected waste is composed by different fractions, namely paper, textiles, plastic films, hard plastics, glass, metal, organic matter and undifferentiated waste. In the present work the rejected waste from a MTB unit is sorted into different classes and each one is fully characterized and assessed as an energy source. For the physicochemical characterization of different residues the following tests were performed: weight loss at 105 °C, elemental analysis, the determination of the heating value, thermogravimetric analysis and FTIR spectroscopy. Considering the potential for energetic recovery of the different fractions, only paper, textiles, hard plastics and plastic films were characterized because of the high moisture content of organic material. According to the results, there is a great variability of the physical-chemical properties within the various samples, both in composition and moisture. Most notably the polymer based residues (hard plastics and plastic films) show a heating value that compares favorably with both traditional biomasses and fossil fuels. Therefore, providing their acceptance in terms of toxicity, they can provide a valuable source of energy and contribute to the reduction of waste delivered to landfills.

Abstract:
Biodegradable ceramics have lately found exciting applications in orthopedic and maxillofacial surgeries as agents for bone repair, drug delivery vehicles and filling materials. A novel bioactive resorbable ceramic that demonstrated a superior mechanical properties, bioactivity and resorbability compared to traditional calcium phosphate ceramics or bioactive glass is bioactive silica-calcium phosphate nanocomposite (SCPC) [1, 2]. Previous studies have demonstrated that the enhanced bioactivity of SCPC is attributed to its nano structure as well as other physicochemical properties of the material [2]. Surface charge is one of the most important factors that control tissue and cell response to the implant material. Additionally, surface charge enhances the adsorption of biological molecules onto the material surface. The objective of the present work is to investigate the effect of SCPC composition and medium pH on the zeta potential and conductance of the material.

Abstract:
Abstract: The unique physicochemical properties of carbon nanotubes allow them to be used in many fields. The global nanomaterials market is growing every year. An important step in introducing products to the domestic and world markets is to determine the safe exposure levels of CNTs. Establishing a corporate standard can serve as a preliminary stage before the approval of a state hygiene standard. Justification of the corporate standard is carried out in in vitro and in vivo experiments. The planning of experiments should be carried out taking into account the target organ under the influence of CNT - the respiratory system. The recommended dose / concentration range for experiments should include doses / concentrations derived from calculated and literature data. A necessary step is to obtain homogeneous dispersions in which CNTs become bioavailable for biological systems. During in vitro and in vivo experiments, the exposure level is determined at which no harmful effect is observed and / or the lowest level of exposure at which there is a harmful effect on the cell culture / respiratory tract of animals.
