Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of lysozyme, and particularly relates to a wrapping method and application of core-shell lysozyme particles. BACKGROUND

[0002] Lysozyme is a kind of alkaline enzyme capable of hydrolyzing bacterial mucopolysaccharide, and can be used as a natural anti-infection substance with bactericidal effect. Lysozyme has effects such as antibacterial, antiviral, hemostatic, anti-inflammatory and analgesic, and accelerating tissue recovery. Lysozyme has problems such as pH sensitivity, high temperature denaturation, solvent and metal ion influence, so lysozyme needs to be wrapped when used.

[0003] At present, common wrapping methods include liposome wrapping, nanoparticle embedding, polysaccharide / protein microcapsule and the like. Among them, the liposome wrapping method has good biocompatibility, but the encapsulation rate is low (about 20% to 40%), and the storage stability of lysozyme is insufficient; the nanoparticle embedding method can be long-acting and sustained-release, but organic solvents are used, which can easily lead to inactivation of lysozyme; the polysaccharide / protein microcapsule uses high-temperature spraying, which can easily affect the activity of lysozyme. It can be seen that the current wrapping method is difficult to be applied to lysozyme wrapping. SUMMARY

[0013] In some embodiments thereof, the negatively charged polypeptide comprises one or both of polyglutamic acid and polyaspartic acid, and the molecular weight of the negatively charged polypeptide is 5kDa~15kDa.

[0019] In some embodiments thereof, the amount of the disodium hydrogen phosphate solution added dropwise satisfies that the molar ratio of calcium ions in the calcium chloride solution to hydrogen phosphate ions in the disodium hydrogen phosphate solution is 1:(1.5~1.67).

[0020] In some embodiments thereof, the step three comprises:

[0021] chitosan powder is dissolved in an acetic acid solution and stirred in a 50℃ water bath for 1h~3h until completely dissolved, and insoluble substances are removed by membrane filtration, and the pH value is adjusted to 5.5~6.0 to obtain a chitosan solution;

[0022] The lysozyme polypeptide core-calcium phosphate microcapsule is suspended in a phosphate buffer solution, and is treated with ultrasonic waves at 50 W for 10 s to obtain a microcapsule suspension;

[0050] Comparative Example 1 removes Step one compared with Example 1, and uses the lysozyme solution of Step one instead of the lysozyme polypeptide core used in Step two.

[0051] Comparative Example 2

[0052] Comparative Example 2 removes Step two compared with Example 1, and uses the lysozyme polypeptide core of Step one instead of the lysozyme polypeptide core-calcium phosphate microcapsule used in Step three.

[0053] Comparative Example 3

[0054] Comparative Example 3 removes Step three compared with Example 1, and uses the lysozyme polypeptide core-calcium phosphate microcapsule of Step two for subsequent tests.

[0055] Comparative Example 4

[0056] Comparative Example 4 uses deionized water instead of the phosphate buffer solution of Step one compared with Example 1.

[0058] Comparative Example 5 used deionized water instead of HEPES buffer solution in step two compared with Example 1.

[0059] Comparative Example 6

[0060] Comparative Example 6 used mixed mode instead of dropwise addition mode in steps one to three compared with Example 1.

[0061] Performance test:

[0062] The lysozyme particles obtained in Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6 were tested for encapsulation efficiency, average particle size, zeta potential and enzyme activity retention rate, and the test results are shown in Table 1.

[0063] Table 1 Test results of Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6

[0064] Sample Encapsulation efficiency / % Average particle size / nm Zeta potential / mV Enzyme activity retention / % Example 1 87.7 252.1 +33.64 83.6 Example 2 90.3 231.6 +42.91 92.4 Example 3 94.9 287.3 +47.68 88.9 Comparative Example 1 48.1 153.4 +5.93 45.6 Comparative Example 2 64.5 167.9 +17.36 49.2 Comparative Example 3 72.4 189.8 -16.72 67.5 Comparative Example 4 44.7 518.1 +1.28 32.7 Comparative Example 5 56.2 437.3 +13.19 51.4 Comparative Example 6 49.4 682.6 +9.65 33.2

[0065] As can be seen from Table 1, the core-shell type lysozyme particles obtained in Examples 1 to 3 have an encapsulation efficiency of 87% to 95%, an average particle size of 200 to 300 nm, a zeta potential of more than 33 mV, and an enzyme activity retention rate of more than 83.6, indicating that the core-shell type lysozyme particles obtained in Examples 1 to 3 are storage stable.

[0066] After step one was removed in Comparative Example 1, the encapsulation efficiency decreased, indicating that polyglutamic acid can improve the wrapping efficiency, avoid the loss of free lysozyme, and the polyglutamic acid core can reduce direct contact with calcium ions to protect enzyme activity. After step two was removed in Comparative Example 2, the encapsulation efficiency decreased, indicating that the calcium phosphate microcapsule can reduce lysozyme leakage, improve encapsulation stability, and the calcium phosphate layer can buffer pH changes, reduce the risk of enzyme denaturation, and the negative charge of calcium phosphate enhances the adsorption of chitosan, making the particle more positively charged. After step three was removed in Comparative Example 3, the encapsulation efficiency decreased, indicating that the chitosan layer can further fix lysozyme, reduce leakage, and the chitosan reverses the negative charge of calcium phosphate, giving the particle a positive charge, and the chitosan layer provides additional protection, reducing the negative impact of the environment on the enzyme. After deionized water was used instead of phosphate buffer in step one in Comparative Example 4, the enzyme activity retention rate decreased significantly, indicating that the buffer reduces pH fluctuations and protein deformation, ensuring efficient complexation of lysozyme-polyglutamic acid. After deionized water was used instead of HEPES buffer in step two in Comparative Example 5, the encapsulation efficiency decreased, indicating that HEPES stabilizes the pH environment, ensuring uniform deposition and efficient wrapping of calcium phosphate. After using mixed mode instead of dropwise addition mode in steps one to three in Comparative Example 6, the average particle size increased significantly, indicating that direct mixing mode can easily lead to heterogeneous aggregation and loose results, and incomplete wrapping and local environmental mutations can cause enzyme denaturation.

[0067] Application Example

[0068] The lysozyme particles prepared in Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6 were added to a toothpaste formulation at a dosage of 0.05% to prepare a toothpaste liquid, and a toothpaste liquid to which uncoated lysozyme was added was used as a control group to test the antibacterial effect of the toothpaste: Streptococcus mutans CGMCC 12499 was inoculated in a culture dish with human saliva as a substrate, and was incubated in an anaerobic bag containing 80% N2, 10% H2, and 10% CO2 at 37°C for 48 h; after the toothpaste liquid was placed in an electric heating incubator at 45°C ± 1°C for 6 months, 100 μL of the toothpaste liquid was taken and inoculated in the above culture dish, and after incubation at 37°C for 48 h, the diameter of the inhibition zone was measured, and the test results are shown in Table 2.

[0071] As can be seen from Table 2, the inhibition zone diameter of Streptococcus mutans of Examples 1 to 3 was more than 25 mm after being placed at 45°C ± 1°C for 6 months, and it can be seen that the core-shell lysozyme particles prepared in Examples 1 to 3 have better thermal stability. The uncoated lysozyme in the control group was almost ineffective, and the lysozyme particles prepared in Comparative Examples 1 to 6 continued to be affected by high temperature, which further reduced the activity, and the structural differences of the lysozyme particles of Comparative Examples 1 to 6 resulted in different antibacterial effects, and the lysozyme particles of Example 2 were most affected after losing the calcium phosphate layer.
