DR. CHENG’S LAB: FOCUSED ON CHEMISTRY OF ENCAPSULATION
Encapsulation is made from Alginic acid which is insoluble in water/organic solvents and is biocompatible
The Alginic acid encapsulation is then covered by the polymer PNIPAM that exhibits controlled variations of permeability

MAKING ENCAPSULATIONS IN THE LAB
1. Make a solution of calcium cholride and water and setup camera
2. Make a solution of alginic acid, water, and turgitol and place in syringe pump

3. Set up syringe pump and voltage source
4. Test electrospray and begin making encapsulations

CLASSROOM PROJECTTimeline:
Cumulative project (7 weeks)
Actual design, build, analysis phase (2 weeks)
Objective:
Lab groups will be defending a cell encapsulation design to a local pharmaceutical representative using knowledge based on research of given materials and data measurements.

CLASSROOM PROJECT
Proposal: A local pharmaceutical company is looking for a new way to encapsulate a drug. The actual encapsulation must be-
1. protective of the medicine inside 2. time released 3. selectively-permeable

WHAT IS THE RELEVANCE?
We need drugs on the market that are safe and work properly.

WHAT IS THE RELEVANCE?
About 176,500 people aged 20 years or younger have diabetes.
As of 2005, 20.8 million people have diabetes
The estimated economic cost of diabetes in 2002 was $132 billion. Of this amount, $92 billion was due to direct medical costs.

MEASUREMENT PHASE
Before building: Time that it takes for
small measured amount of Tums to diffuse through each membrane
Using ratios decide time for an entire packet of Tums quikpak to dissolve
Based on research decide if long or short diffusion is better

The “therapeutic agent” that is encapsulated is a Tums quikpak.
Time for Tums to diffuse out of encapsulation 2.14 min
