    Tetralin hydrogenation and ring opening of decalin over Ir-Pt-SBA-15
    (CICat, 2014) Vallés, Verónica Alejandra; Rivoira, Lorena Paola; Ledesma, Brenda Cecilia; Cussa, Jorgelina; Anunziata, Oscar Alfredo; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel
    A series of Ir and Pt modified SBA-15 were prepared by the consecutive wet impregnation method, with different content of each metal. The final catalysts were characterized by XRD, TEM and H2 chemisorption to study the effect of content of metal on the dispersion of iridium/platinum. The catalysts synthesized with similar percentage of both metals showed the best activity measured in tetralin hydrogenation and ring opening of decalin at mild conditions.

    (CICat, 2016) Ponte , María Virginia; Rivoira, Lorena Paola; Cussa, Jorgelina; Martínez, María Laura; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel
    hexagonal, diámetro de poro >3nm; presenta alta área superficial y alto volumen de poro. Se utilizó la metodología de Superficie de Respuesta para el modelado y optimización de las condiciones de síntesis de SBA‐3. Se analizaron como factores del Diseño la influencia de la relación molar entre el surfactante (CTAB) y la fuente de silicio (TEOS), el tiempo de envejecimiento, la temperatura y el pH de la síntesis utilizando HCl. La respuesta analizada fue la intensidad de difracción de rayos X para el plano [100]. Las superficies de respuestas se obtuvieron con el diseño Box–Behnken, buscando la combinación de los parámetros que dieran como resultado la mejor estructura en el material sintetizado. Mediante la aplicación de metodología estadística, los mayores valores de la función objetivo (intensidad de DRX para el plano [100]) se obtuvieron utilizando valores de la relación molar CTAB/TEOS de 0,07‐0,16; HCl/TEOS de 8‐11; temperatura de síntesis de 35‐45 (ºC) y tiempos de envejecimiento de 12‐24hr.

    KETO/LP-SBA-15 composite as a drug release system
    (Materials Research Society, 2018) Cussa, Jorgelina; Juárez, Juliana María; Prados , Antonela M.; Gómez Costa , Marcos Bruno; Anunziata, Oscar Alfredo
    Controlled drug delivery systems can maintain the concentration of drugs in the exact sites of the body within the optimum range and below the toxicity threshold, improving therapeutic efficacy and reducing toxicity. SBA-15 with larger pore sizes material (LPSBA- 15) is a new promising host for drug delivery systems due to high biocompatibility, in vivo biodegradability and low toxicity. Large-pore mesoporous silica supports has been applied in studies of ketorolac tromethamine (KETO) adsorption and release. KETO/LP-SBA-15 composite was synthesized. The material synthesis and loading of KETO into LP-SBA-15 pores were successful. We obtained promising results for controlled drug release using the novel LP-SBA-15 material. The ability of KETO/LP-SBA-15 release was measured. The concentration of KETO in HCl solution or buffer in a specific time was determined by UV-Vis. First-order, Higuchi and Ritger-Peppas (or Korsmeyer-Peppas) models were used to fit experimental release data. Figure 1 show the fitting results, where Qt/Q∞ is the release fraction per unit mass in time t, k represents release rate in all models and n is a measure of desorption intensity in Ritger-Peppas regression. In this work, we have shown a promising drug storage material for the effective encapsulation and controlled release of KETO, achieving the required therapeutic efficacy. KETO was adsorbed into LP-SBA-15 channel surface without affecting the chemical structure or composition of KETO. The study also demonstrates the storage capacity and release properties of LP-SBA-15 containing KETO. The release of KETO contained in LP-SBA-15 can offer significant improve in controlled drug release and enhance a good analgesia effect.

    HaP/SBA-3 Nanostructured Composite to Remove Fluoride Effectively from Contaminated Water.
    (Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional, 2021) Cussa, Jorgelina; López , Claudia; Anunziata, Oscar Alfredo; Anunziata, Oscar Alfredo
    Highly ordered pore mesoporous silica composites, like SBA-3 and hydroxyapatite (HaP) nanocrystals, characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and textural properties, were successfully applied to remove fluoride from contaminated water. The proposed procedure to prepare HaP/SBA-3 wassuccessful, which acts as supports to anchor the HaP crystals, in nanometer-scale (<2nm), with higher fluoride retention from contaminated water. The free OH- groups of HaP nanocrystals, within the host, facilitated the high-performance fluoride trapping. The fluoride retention activity was much higher than that of pure HaP and the composites HaP/SBA-15 and HaP/MCM-41.

    Optimization of the synthesis of SBA-3 mesoporous materials by experimental design
    (Elsevier Inc., 2016-02-18) Ponte, María Virignia; Rivoira, Lorena Paola; Cussa, Jorgelina; Martínez, Maria Laura; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel; Anunziata, Oscar Alfredo
    SBA-3 mesoporous materials are characterized by hexagonal regular arrangements of channels with diameters >2 nm, high specific surface areas and high specific pore volumes. In the work reported herein, experimental design-response surface methodology (RSM) is used to model and optimize the synthesis conditions for SBA-3 mesoporous materials. In this study, we evaluate the influences of surfactant/silica source molar ratios, aging times, temperature and pH on the synthesis of SBA-3 mesoporous materials by analyzing the XRD intensities pertaining to the [100] signal. Response surfaces were obtained using the BoxeBehnken design, and the combination of reaction parameters was optimized. By applying statistical methodology, higher levels of the objective function (XRD intensities pertaining to the [100] signal) were obtained using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)/tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) molar ratios of 0.07 and 0.16, HCl/TEOS molar ratios of 8 and 11, reaction temperatures of 35 and 45 ◦C and aging times of 12e24 h. The mesoporous SBA-3 samples obtained were characterized using small-angle X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), BET, FTIR and 29Si NMR-MAS, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM).

    Nanostructured SBA-15 host applied in ketorolac tromethamine release system
    (Springer Science+Business Media, 2017) Cussa, Jorgelina; Juárez, Juliana María; Gómez Costa, Marcos Bruno; Anunziata, Oscar Alfreco
    The ordered mesoporous silica SBA-15 has been applied in studies of ketorolac tromethamine adsorption andrelease. The SBA 15 materials with hexagonal and regular structure were obtained using a triblock copolymer Pluronic P123 as a template and TEOS as a silica source. Ketorolac tromethamine was adsorbed into SBA 15 silica nanochan- nels using ethanol as solvent. The physicochemical and textural properties of SBA-15 and ketorolac tromethamine/ SBA-15 were characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermo gravimetric analysis, transmission electron microscopy, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and BET surface studies. Drug release was evaluated by soaking the loaded silica mesoporous material into a solution of HCl (0.1 N) at initial time (0–2 h) and buffer pH 7 at high times at 37 °C under continuous stirring. Oral commercial Keto tablets (Dolten® ) and Keto solution (Keto power) were study for the contrast. Release studies were performed in order to evaluate the required therapeutic efficacy. SBA 15 provides significant improvement in the controlled release of ketor- olac tromethamine.

    LP-SBA-15, functionalized with tert-butylamine a novel controlled release system for cyclophosphamide.
    (Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional, 2013) Juárez , Juliana María; Cussa, Jorgelina; Gómez costa , Marcos Bruno; Anunziata, Oscar Alfredo; Anunziata, Oscar Alfredo
    Controlled drug administration systems can keep the level of drugs in specific locations in the organism with low toxicity and above the optimal level. We suggest the LP-SBA-15 material as an auspicious new host for drug delivery systems because of its low toxicity high biocompatibility and in vivo biodegradability. LP SBA-15 materials were synthesized and functionalized using 0-15-30% of tert butylamine (TBA) and used as effective drug delivery systems. The anticancer drug Cyclophosphamide (CP) is an alkylating compound which is a phosphoramide derivative and is habitually used in autoimmune diseases. Reactive oxygen species production has been related to the mechanism of CP-induced cell death or tumor cell killing. The activated metabolites of CP are released in both healthy and tumor tissues and destroy the cellular DNA and proteins as well as mitochondrial and lysosomal membranes. CP was loaded into the nanomaterial of the transporters and characterized by XRD, FTIR, TGA, TEM and texture, determining the adsorption capacity and its release. The release of the drug was studied for each material by simulating the physiological conditions and submerging the composite, at 37 °C with constant stirring, in a HCl solution (0.1 M) for the first two hours and in Buffer solution pH = 7 the following hours to simulate the conditions of the organism. Release experiment were conducted to determine the requisite efficacy of treatment. The study was performed by UV-Vis spectrophotometry to evaluate the amount of CP released. The mechanism of drug release from the LP-SBA-15 matrix was evaluated by adjusting the experimental data, being the Ritger-Peppas (figure 1) The promising results we obtained for the controlled release of the drug in a controlled manner using the new material, reaching a quick initial release rate and maintaining a constant rate at high moments, allow us to keep the concentration of the drug in the therapeutic efficacy range, applying it to a great extent to the treatment of diseases that require a rapid response. Lastly, it was suggested that the LP-SBA-15 nanomaterial functionalized with 15% TBA was the most desirable system due to they had adequate amounts of both drug loading and release

    LP-SBA-15-TBA-CP: Tert-Butylamine and Cyclophosphamide detailed study by FTIR and 3D structure.
    (Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional, 2023) Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Cussa, Jorgelina
    A careful study of the vibrational spectra of the host (LP-SBA-15), functionalizing agent, tert-Butylamine (TBA), and N, N-bis(2-chloroethyl)tetrahydro-2H-1,3,2- oxazaphosphorin-2-amine 2-oxide, cyclophosphamide (CP) was performed, as there is a diversity of assignments published by different authors [1-5]. Our preliminary OM studies (AM1, PM3, Density Functional Theory, application of the Fukui function), and extensive FTIR studies, we estimated the binding energies, bond lengths and bond angles of CP as well as for TBA-CP, leading us to suggest that CP is embedded in an ellipsoid.
