Boosting Catalytic Selectivity through a Precise Spatial Control of Catalysts at Pickering Droplet Interfaces

Houbing Zou et al.

Summary: In this study, the oil-water interfaces of Pickering emulsions were utilized to regulate catalytic selectivity of hydrogenation reactions by controlling the spatial distribution of metal nanoparticles at the droplet interfaces. The remarkable interfacial microregion-dependent catalytic selectivity was found to be attributed to the microenvironments of the coexistence of water and organic solvent at the droplet interfaces, altering the adsorption patterns of the reactants on the metal nanoparticles. This strategy provides new insights into liquid-liquid interfacial reactions and offers a way to enhance catalytic selectivity.

Liang Qi et al.

Summary: In this study, a pH-responsive monomer was grafted onto maize starch molecules to develop a recyclable biocatalyst for Pickering interfacial systems. The resulting enzyme-loaded starch nanoparticle showed nanometer size and regular sphere, and exhibited highly catalytic activity and good recyclability. The generated Pickering emulsion could be used as recyclable microreactors, making this biocatalyst a promising option for green and sustainable catalysis in Pickering interfacial systems.

Demulsification of Bacteria-Stabilized Pickering Emulsions Using Modified Silica Nanoparticles

Haisheng Xie et al.

Summary: Pickering emulsions stabilized by bacteria acting as particle emulsifiers have high stability, which hampers demulsification during downstream processing. This study investigated the demulsification of such emulsions using chemically modified fumed silica particles with different hydrophobicity. The results showed that silica particle hydrophobicity and concentration were important parameters influencing emulsion type, droplet morphology, and dewatering rate. This study provides a new strategy for demulsifying Pickering emulsions by adding another particle emulsifier.

Interfacial biodegradation of phenanthrene in bacteria-carboxymethyl cellulose-stabilized Pickering emulsions

Tao Pan et al.

Summary: In this study, the biodegradation of phenanthrene in n-tetradecane by hydrophilic bacterium Moraxella sp. CFP312 was studied with the assistance of two polymers, chitosan and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC). It was found that CMC was more effective than chitosan in promoting CFP312 to stabilize Pickering emulsion and increasing the degradation ratio of phenanthrene.

Crystal substrate inhibition during microbial transformation of phytosterols in Pickering emulsions

Wenyu Zhao et al.

Summary: The water-oil interface of bacterial cell-stabilized Pickering emulsions provides a unique habitat for microbial assimilation of hydrophobic and hydrophilic nutrients. Crystal substrate inhibition occurs during the microbial transformation of phytosterols into steroid synthons, leading to the detachment of bacterial cells from the oil-water interfaces. This study demonstrates the microbial transformation of crystal substrates in bacterial cell-stabilized Pickering emulsions.

Qi Zeng et al.

Summary: This study presents a novel approach for efficient enzymatic catalysis in a biphasic system by designing lipase-entrapped colloidosomes (LEC) at the emulsion interface.

Effect of Particle Wettability and Particle Concentration on the Enzymatic Dehydration of n-Octanaloxime in Pickering Emulsions

Ana Maria Bago Rodriguez et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the catalytic performance of biotransformation using whole cells in a Pickering emulsion system stabilized solely with silica particles of different hydrophobicity. The study found a correlation between the properties of the emulsions and the conversion of the reaction, with water-in-oil system displaying a higher conversion compared to oil-in-water system. Moreover, an increase in particle concentration prior to emulsification resulted in a higher conversion due to the increase in interfacial area.

Enhanced biodegradation of n-hexane in a two-phase partitioning bioreactor inoculated with Pseudomonas mendocina NX-1 under chitosan stimulation

Dong-Zhi Chen et al.

Summary: This study introduced chitosan into a TPPB to increase cell surface hydrophobicity and improve n-hexane mass transfer, achieving higher removal efficiency and elimination capacity for n-hexane biodegradation compared to TPPBs without chitosan. Chitosan not only enhanced hydrophobic cells' ability to capture n-hexane in aqueous phases, but also improved mass transfer from gas phase to biomass, providing a new strategy for hydrophobic VOCs treatment in TPPBs.

Interfacial biocatalysis in bacteria-stabilized Pickering emulsions for microbial transformation of hydrophobic chemicals

Haisheng Xie et al.

Summary: This study demonstrated an innovative approach using Mycobacterium neoaurum whole cells as Pickering emulsifiers and self-replicating biocatalysts for microbial transformation of hydrophobic substrates. By stabilizing Pickering emulsions solely with hydrophobic bacteria and enhancing their biocatalytic activities, it showed a new mechanism for bacteria to utilize hydrophobic substrates. The efficient fermentation of cholesterol in Pickering emulsions with rapid cell growth and high AD(D) productivity suggests that the oil-water interface in Pickering emulsions is an exceptional habitat for bacteria to simultaneously utilize hydrophobic and hydrophilic chemicals.
