NMR- Diamagnetic Anisotropy and its effect on chemical shiftD.R. Chandravanshi
The shift in the position of the NMR region resulting from the shielding and deshielding by electrons is called chemical shift.
When a proton is present inside the magnetic field more close to an electro positive atom more applied magnetic field is required to cause excitation. This effect is called shielding effect.
When a proton is present outside the magnetic field close to a electronegative atom less applied magnetic field is required to cause excitation . This effect is called deshielding effect
Electrophoresis is a scientific laboratory technique that is used to separate DNA, RNA, or protein molecules based on their size and electrical charge. An electric current is passed through the molecules to move them so that they can be separated via a gel. The pores present in the gel work like a sieve, allowing smaller molecules to pass through more quickly and easily than the larger molecules. According to the way conditions are adjusted during electrophoresis, the molecules can be separated in the desired size range.
What is electrophoresis and what are its uses?
Electrophoresis is a very broadly used technique that, fundamentally, applies electric current to biological molecules – they’re usually DNA, but they can be protein or RNA, too – and separates these fragments into pieces that are larger or smaller in size.
The phenomenon of electrophoresis was first observed by Russian professors Peter Ivanovich Strakhov and Ferdinand Frederic Reuss in 1807 at Moscow University. A constant application of electric field caused the particles of clay dispersed in water to migrate, showing an electrokinetic phenomenon.
Electrophoresis can be defined as an electrokinetic process that separates charged particles in a fluid using an electrical field of charge. Electrophoresis of cations or positively charged ions is sometimes referred to as cataphoresis (or cataphoretic electrophoresis). In contrast, sometimes, the electrophoresis of anions or negatively charged ions is referred to as anaphoresis (or anaphoric electrophoresis).
It’s used in a variety of applications. Though it is most often used in life sciences to separate protein molecules or DNA, it can be achieved through several different techniques and methods depending upon the type and size of the molecules.
The methods differ in some ways, but all we need is a source for the electrical charge, a support medium and a buffer solution. Electrophoresis is also used in laboratories for the separation of molecules based on their size, density and purity.
The method used to separate macromolecules such as DNA, RNA, or protein molecules is known as gel electrophoresis.
It is used in forensics for –
Nucleic acid molecule sizing
DNA fragmentation for southern blotting
RNA fragmentation for northern blotting
Protein fragmentation for western blotting
Separation of PCR products analysis
Detection and analysis of variations or mutations in the sequence
Its clinical applications involve –
Serum protein electrophoresis
Lipoprotein analysis
Diagnosis of haemoglobinopathies and hemoglobin A1c.
The fundamental principle of electrophoresis is the existence of charge separation between the surface of a particle and the fluid immediately surrounding it. An applied electric field acts on the resulting charge density, causing the particle to migrate and the fluid around the particle to flow.
It is the process of separation or purification of protein molecules, DNA, or RNA that differ in charge, size.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

3. Introduction
• Zeta potential is a scientific term
for electrokinetic potential in
colloidal dispersions.
• It is usually denoted using the
Greek letter zeta (ζ), hence ζ-
potential.
• The electric potential at the
boundary of the double layer is
known as the Zeta potential of
the particles and has values that
typically range from +100 mV to
-100 mV.
3
4. Definitions
• Nernst potential: It is the potential of the solid surface itself
owing to the presence of potential determining ions.
• Nernst potential or electrothermodynamic potential is
defined as the difference in potential between the actual
surface and the electroneutral region of the solution.
• Zeta potential: It is the potential observed at the shear
plane.
4
5. Cont..
• Zeta potential or electrokinetic potential is defined as the
difference in the potential between shear plane and
electroneutral region of the solution.
• Zeta potential is more important than nernst potential
because the electrical double layer also moves, when the
particle is under motion.
5
6. Factors affecting zeta potential
1. pH : In aqueous media, the pH of the sample is one of the
most important factors that affects its zeta potential.
zeta potential versus pH curve will be positive at low pH and
negative at high pH. There may be a point where the plot
passes through zero zeta potential. This point is called the
isoelectric point and is very important from a practical
consideration.
2. Thickness of double layer: The thickness of the double
layer depends upon the concentration of ions in solution and
can be calculated from the ionic strength of the medium. 6
7. Factors affecting
The higher the ionic strength, the more compressed the
double layer becomes. The valency of the ions will also
influence double layer thickness.
3. Concentration of a formulation component: The effect
of the concentration of a formulation component on the
zeta potential can give information to assist in formulating
a product to give maximum stability.
7
8. Zeta Potential Measurement
• Zeta potential is not directly measurable, it can be calculated using
theoretical models like electrokinetic phenomena and electroacoustic
phenomena.
1. Electrokinetic :An important consequence of the existence of
electrical charges on the surface of particles is that they interact
with an applied electric field. These effects are collectively defined
as electrokinetic effects.
• Electrophoresis : Zeta potential of dispersion is measured by applying
an electric field across the dispersion. Particles within the dispersion
with a zeta potential will migrate towards the electrode of opposite
charge with a velocity proportional to the magnitude of the zeta
potential. 8
9. Cont..
• The velocity is dependent on the strength of electric field
or voltage gradient, the dielectric constant of the medium,
the viscosity of the medium and the zeta potential.
• The velocity of a particle in a unit electric field is
referred to as its electrophoretic mobility. Zeta potential
is related to the electrophoretic mobility by the Henry
equation
UE = 2 ε z f(κa)/3η
where UE = electrophoretic mobility, z = zeta potential,
ε =dielectricconstant, η = viscosity and f(κa) =Henry’s
function.
9
10. Cont..
• Electrophoretic light scattering: This method is most
popularly used to determine the velocity of the particles
suspended in a fluid medium under an applied electric field.
• The particles are irradiated with a laser light and the
scattered light emitted from the particles is detected.
• Since the frequency of the scattered light is shifted from
the incident light in proportion to the speed of the particles
movement, the electrophoretic mobility of the particles can
be measured from the frequency shift (Doppler shift) of the
scattered light.
10
11. Cont..
• Electroacoustic phenomena: The electroacoustic
technique characterizes the dynamic mobility of particles
in colloidal systems.
• In this method, a high frequency electric field is applied
to the samples, causing charged particles to oscillate, and
to produce a sound wave of the same frequency.
• The oscillation (dynamic mobility) of the particles is
described by its magnitude and phase angle. The sound
wave is detected and analysed to determine the motion of
the particles.
11
12. DLVO Theory
• The scientists Derjaguin, Landau, Verwey and Overbeek
developed a theory in the 1940s which dealt with the stability
of colloidal systems.
• DVLO theory suggests that, the stability of a colloidal system
is determined by the sum of the vander Waals attractive (VA)
and electrical double layer repulsive (VR) forces that exist
between particles as they approach each other due to the
Brownian motion they are undergoing.
• The vander waal forces depend on chemical nature and size of
particle. The electrostatic repulsive forces depend on density,
surface charge and thickness of double layer.
12
13. Methods for stabilizing colloids
Stability can be obtained by surrounding colloidal particle with:
-an electrical double layer (electrostatic or charge stabilization).
-adsorbed or chemically attached polymeric molecules (steric
stabilization).
-free polymer in the dispersion medium (depletion stabilization).
•The stabilization due to the adsorbed layers on the dispersed
particle is generally called steric stabilization.
•Steric stabilization of colloidal particles is
achieved by attaching (grafting or
chemisorption) macromolecules to the
surfaces of the particles. 13
14. Cont..
The best steric stabilizers are amphiphilic 2-block or graft
copolymers.
Depletion stabilization of colloidal particles is imparted by
macromolecules that are free in solution.
The study of this type of stabilization is
still in its initial stage.
14
15. Importance
• Zeta potential governs the degree of repulsion between
the adjacent ions of like charges. Hence it is used to
predict the particle-particle interaction
• Zeta potential can be used to predict the monodispersity
(or agglomeration) of particles.
• Zeta potential can be used to study nanoparticle-cell
interactions.
15
16. Case study
• Y. Zhang , C. S. Ozkan et.al demonstrated the use of
surface Zeta potential measurements as a new tool to
investigate the interactions of iron oxide nanoparticles
and cow pea mosaic virus (CPMV) nanoparticles with
human normal breast epithelial cells (MCF10A) and cancer
breast epithelial cells (MCF7).
• After MCF7 and MCF10A cells were incubated
respectively with two types of nanoparticles, the
significant differences in their surface charge change
indicate the potential role of Zeta potential.
16
17. Cont..
• 50 μg/ml iron oxide and CPMV nanoparticles were incubated
with MCF7 cancer breast epithelial cells and MCF10A normal
breast epithelial cells separately in 25 cm2 flask at 37°C in a
humidified and 5% CO2 atmosphere for specified time periods
of 30 min, 4 and 24h.
• After the incubation procedure, cells were washed with
Dulbecco’s Phosphate Buffered Saline (DPBS) for three times.
MCF10A cells were lifted off using Typsin-EDTA and MCF 7
cells were lifted off using Cell dissociation buffer. After that,
they were pelleted down and suspended into Hepes buffer for
Zeta potential measurements.
