    The design and synthesis of biomaterials covers a growing number of biomedical applications. The use of biomaterials in biological environment is associated with a number of problems, the most important of which is biocompatabUity. If the implanted biomaterial is not compatible with the environment, it will be rejected by the biological site. This may be manifested in many ways depending on the environment in which it is used. Adsorption of proteins takes place almost instantaneously when a biomaterial comes into contact with most biological fluids. The eye is a unique body site for the study of protein interactions with biomaterials, because of its ease of access and deceptive complexity of the tears. The use of contact lenses for either vision correction and cosmetic reasons or as a route for the controlled drug delivery, has significantly increased in recent years. It is relatively easy to introduce a contact lens Into the tear fluid and remove after a few minutes without surgery or trauma to the patient. A range of analytical techniques were used and developed to measure the proteins absorbed to some existing commercial contact lens materials and also to novel hydrogels synthesised within the research group. Analysis of the identity and quantity of proteins absorbed to biomaterials revealed the importance of many factors on the absorption process. The effect of biomaterial structure, protein nature in terms of size. shape and charge and pH of the environment on the absorption process were examined in order to determine the relative up-take of tear proteins. This study showed that both lysozyme and lactoferrin penetrate the lens matrix of ionic materials. Measurement of the mobility and activity of the protein deposited into the surface and within the matrix of ionic lens materials demonstrated that the mobility is pH dependent and, within the experimental errors, the biological activity of lysozyme remained unchanged after adsorption and desorption. The study on the effect of different monomers copolymerised with hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) on the protein up-take showed that monomers producing a positive charge on the copolymer can reduce the spoilation with lysozyme. The studies were extended to real cases in order to compare the patient dependent factors. The in-vivo studies showed that the spoilation is patient dependent as well as other factors. Studies on the extrinsic factors such as dye used in colour lenses showed that the addition of colourant affects protein absorption and, in one case, its effect is beneficial to the wearer as it reduces the quantity of the protein absorbed

    The study was conducted to determine the increase in nutrient content and decrease in the lignin content of cocoa pod fermented with Aspergillus niger. The research method used three treatments and four replications. T0 = cocoa pod fermented without the addition of Aspergillus niger, T1 = cocoa pod fermented with the addition of 1% Aspergillus niger, and T2 = cocoa pod fermented with the addition of 2% Aspergillus niger. Fresh cocoa pod was chopped in 1-2 cm size. Cocoa pod chopped and dried, some added with Aspergillus niger. The mixture is put into an aerobic container for 7 days. The variables observed included dry matter, crude protein, crude fiber, and crude fat. This study was designed using a complete randomized design research design with one-way ANOVA analysis. Significant variables were followed by Duncan's multiple range test (Duncan multiple range test / DMRT). The results of the study showed significantly different results in all treatments. It was concluded that the fermentation with addition Aspergillus niger until 2% decrease crude protein, crude fiber, and crude fat on cocoa pod fermentation

    A real-time biosensor system in vivo using luciferase as an intracellular reporter for the functional analysis of anti-cancer compounds based on Hsp70 inhibition

    Introduction:Defective apoptosis (programmed cell death) is a major contributor to the process of cancer progression and metastasis. Over the last decade, new drug compounds were designed to enhance apoptosis in the tumor cells. Hsp70 chaperone is an anti-apoptotic protein and its inhibitors serve as suitable compounds in cancer treatment strategies. A number of different techniques such as x-ray crystallography are available for studying inhibitory effects of apoptosis-inducing compounds on Hsp70 activity. These techniques are expensive and time-consuming because of long sample preparation steps prior to analysis, and the functional analysis of new compounds synthesized cannot be examined in vivo. In order to overcome these problems, for the first time, a rapid, sensitive and inexpensive real-time biosensor system in vivo is introduced using intracellular reporter. In real-time biosensor system, because of the availability of a rapid and sensitive activity assay using biolominometer in vivo without cell lysis, luciferase has been considered as proper candidate. Methods and Results:Co-transformation of the cells was carried out with two expression vectors containing Hsp70 and firefly luciferase, and the assessment of new drug compounds on Hsp70 activity under the stress conditions was evaluated. Our result showed that Hsp70 plays a crucial role in suppressing inactivation of luciferase in vivo during heat-treatment. On the other hand, the activity of heat-inactivated luciferase was approximately regained in cells expressing Hsp70 after incubation at room temperature for 60 min. According to the results, the reactivation of thermally inactivated luciferase was inhibited in the cells by treating with Ver-155008 and PFT-μ compounds (as apoptosis-inducing compounds) with IC50 of 124 and 384 μM, respectively. Also, the sensitivity of this method for detecting Ver-155008 and PFT-μ compounds was as low as 8 and 23 μM, respectively, and it showed no response to doxorubicin anti-cancer drug which binds to DNA, and used as control. Conclusions:Real-time biosensor system using luciferase can be a class of in vivo biochemical tests used for simple, rapid and sensitive detection of apoptosis-inducing compounds based on Hsp70 inhibition to facilitate clinical and therapeutic studies in the years to come
