The preparation of bioactive polymeric molecules requires the attention of scientists as it has a potential function in biomedical applications. In the current study, functional substitution of alginate with a benzoyl group was prepared via coupling its hydroxyl group with benzoyl chloride. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy indicated the characteristic peaks of aromatic C=C in alginate derivative at 1431 cm. HNMR analysis demonstrated the aromatic protons at 7.5 ppm assigned to benzoyl groups attached to alginate hydroxyl groups. Wetting analysis showed a decrease in hydrophilicity in the new alginate derivative. Differential scanning calorimetry and thermal gravimetric analysis showed that the designed aromatic alginate derivative demonstrated higher thermo-stability than alginates. The aromatic alginate derivative displayed high anti-inflammatory properties compared to alginate. Finally, the in vitro antioxidant evaluation of the aromatic alginate derivative showed a significant increase in free radical scavenging activity compared to neat alginate against DPPH (2,2-diphenyll-picrylhydrazyl) and ABTS free radicals. The obtained results proposed that the new alginate derivative could be employed for gene and drug delivery applications.
生物活性聚合物分子的制备需要科学家们的关注，因为它在生物医学应用中具有潜在功能。在当前的研究中，通过将藻酸盐的羟基与苯甲酰氯偶联，制备了具有苯甲酰基的藻酸盐功能取代物。傅里叶变换红外光谱表明，藻酸盐衍生物中芳香族C=C的特征峰位于1431 cm处。核磁共振氢谱分析表明，在7.5 ppm处的芳香族质子归属于连接在藻酸盐羟基上的苯甲酰基。润湿性分析表明，新型藻酸盐衍生物的亲水性降低。差示扫描量热法和热重分析表明，所设计的芳香族藻酸盐衍生物比藻酸盐具有更高的热稳定性。与藻酸盐相比，芳香族藻酸盐衍生物表现出高抗炎特性。最后，芳香族藻酸盐衍生物的体外抗氧化评估表明，与纯藻酸盐相比，其对DPPH（2,2-二苯基-1-苦基肼）和ABTS自由基的自由基清除活性显著增加。所得结果表明，新型藻酸盐衍生物可用于基因和药物递送应用。
