A Facile Sonochemical Route for the Fabrication of Magnetic Protein Microcapsules for Targeted Delivery

Abstract: Targeted delivery carriers: Magnetic protein microcapsules (MPMCs) as drug carriers for targeted delivery were fabricated by a facile and fast sonochemical method. MPMCs possessed excellent magnetic responsivity and could be readily moved and collected in an external magnetic field due to embedding of Fe3O4 MNPs in the protein shell (see figure).

“…First of all, core-shell BSA@Fe 3 O 4 MNPs were prepared by BSA molecules binding with Fe 3 O 4 MNPs (Scheme 1A), which had been discussed in our previous papers [39,40]. For BSA@Fe 3 O 4 MNPs, there were plenty of cysteine residues with sulfhydryl groups in the BSA layers, which was one of critical factors to fabricate BSA MCs [41].…”

“…For some magnetic protein microcapsules, magnetic nanoparticles can be first modified with protein molecules to form composite nanoparticles with core–shell structure before the implementation of high‐intensity ultrasound at the diphase interface, and subsequently are doped in aqueous protein solution to fabricate magnetic shells via the in situ sonication. From TEM images of BSA‐Fe 3 O 4 microcapsules (Image a in Figure ), it is clearly seen that Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles are embedded evenly in the microcapsules, forming a dense magnetic protein layer. To confirm their existence sites more veritably, the green fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) labeling BSA, namely FITC‐BSA, is used to modify Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles instead of pure BSA, and takes part in the preparation of magnetic microcapsules.…”

“…By encapsulated inside these microcapsules, drugs or chemicals can be released at a desired rate only when and/or where the release is needed . A considerable amount of researches have been carried out on temperature‐responsive, pH‐responsive, magnetic‐responsive, and other stimuli‐responsive microcapsules in recent years. However, in many cases, different environmental changes may occur at the same time, thus single stimulus‐responsive microcapsules are insufficient for practical applications.…”
