Towards effective COVID\u201119 vaccines: Updates, perspectives and challenges (Review)

In the current context of the pandemic triggered by SARS-COV-2, the immunization of the population through vaccination is recognized as a public health priority. In the case of SARS\u2011COV\u20112, the genetic sequencing was done quickly, in one month. Since then, worldwide research has focused on obtaining a vaccine. This has a major economic impact because new technological platforms and advanced genetic engineering procedures are required to obtain a COVID\u201119 vaccine. The most difficult scientific challenge for this future vaccine obtained in the laboratory is the proof of clinical safety and efficacy. The biggest challenge of manufacturing is the construction and validation of production platforms capable of making the vaccine on a large scale

Кинетика и механизм окисления 2,4,6-триметиланилина

The kinetics of oxidation of 2,4,6-trimethylaniline hydrochloride with ammonia peroxydisulfate in an aqueous solution was studied by the potentiometric method. It was shown that the reaction proceeds as the second order process. The rate constants of one-electron transfer from 2,4,6-trimethylaniline molecule to peroxydisulfate ion were determined and are 1.46, 2.3, and 3.17 l/(mol.sec) at 30, 35 and 40° С , respectively. The activation energy of one-electron transfer from 2,4,6-trimethylaniline molecule to peroxydisulfate ion is 61 kJ/mol, the entropy of activation is –63 J/(mol К ), and the enthalpy of activation is 58.5kJ/mol. It was determined that 2,4,6-trimethylaniline is not prone to oxidative polymerization. This indicates that cation-radicals of aromatic amines which act as active centers of aniline oxidative polymerization are formed. The fact that there is no autoacceleration during oxidation of 2,4,6-trimethylaniline hydrochloride indicates that the oxidative polymerization of aniline is an autocatalytical process.Потенциометрическим методом исследована кинетика окисления 2,4,6-триметиланилина под действием пероксидисульфата аммония в водном растворе.

The kinetics of oxidative polymerization of 2-methylaniline in hydrochloric acid aqueous solution in the presence of ammonium peroxydisulfate as the oxidant was studied. The presence of autocatalysis was demonstrated, and the reaction mechanism was suggested. On the basis of the mechanism a kinetic model of oxidative polymerization of 2-methylaniline was built. The model is in satisfactory agreement with the experimental results.И сследована кинетика окислительной полимеризации 2-метиланилина в солянокислом водном растворе в присутствии пероксидисульфата аммония в качестве окислителя.

Получение диагностических тест-систем на основе полимерных микросфер в присутствии поливинилпирролидона, модифицированного аминокислотой

Styrene-divinylbenzene particles (6 microns in diameter) with carboxyl groups on the surface have been synthesized by seed polymerization in the presence of an organosilicon carboxyl-containing surfactant soluble in the monomer phase. It has been shown that carboxyl groups on the microsphere surface are accessible for covalent immobilization of bioligands and alanine-modified polyvinylpyrrolidone. It was supposed that applying modified polyvinylpyrrolidone for obtaining diagnostic systems based on polymer microspheres is very perspective.етодом затравочной полимеризации в присутствии растворимого в мономерной фазе кремнийорганического карбоксилсодержащего ПАВ были синтезированы сополимерные стирол-дивинилбензольные микросферы диаметром 6 мкм с карбоксильными группами на поверхности. Было показано, что карбоксильные группы доступны для ковалентного связывания биолигандов и поливинилпирролидона, модифицированного аланином. Высказано предположение о перспективности применения поливинилпирролидона, модифицированного аланином, для получения диагностических систем на основе полимерных микросфер

Size and shape of polypyrrole particles in aqueous solutions of poly-( <i>N</i>-vinylpyrrolidone)

Based on the IR spectroscopy data and on the analysis of rheological characteristics of polypyrrole aqueous suspension stabilized with poly-(N-vinylpyrrolidone) we conjecture that a physical lattice composed with poly-(N-vinylpyrrolidone) is formed, where the lattice points are the polypyrrole chain aggregates interlaced with poly-(N-vinylpyrrolidone) chains. It was shown that there is a hydrogen bond between the constitutional repeating units of poly-(N-vinylpyrrolidone) and polypyrrole. It was determined that the size of the particles of the disperse phase decreases with the increase of poly-(N-vinylpyrrolidone) molecular weight. It was also determined that the size of particles increases with the increase of the mass fraction of polypyrrole aqueous suspension. It was shown that the disperse phase particles are rod-like, and the increase of molecular weight of poly-(N-vinylpyrrolidone) in an aqueous solution results in additional lengthwise stretching of particles. It was also shown that the viscosity of the stabilized poly-(N-vinylpyrrolidone) aqueous suspension follows the Einstein law
