| Abstract | Preferential aggregation of bionanoparticles to different human suspension cell lines preceding cellular uptake by endocytosis was investigated by a 3-dimensional discrete population balance model. Property space was reduced by excluding intercellular aggregation in accordance with experimental evidence and by establishing an adaptive grid with full property resolution in areas of high particle or cell densities. The aggregation rates are based on deterministic models from colloidal sciences, adapted to include biologically specific aggregation in addition to unspecific aggregation. While the collision frequency is described by the Smoluchowski kernel for Brownian motion, the collision efficiency is modelled by a kernel considering inhomogeneous surface patches. The patch encounter probability and the interaction potential energies embedded in the stability ratio gain dominant influence on the aggregation kinetics. Given a cell specific receptor density as input parameter, the preferential aggregation of bionanoparticles to U-937 cells in mixture with KARPAS-299 cells was successfully simulated. Fast specific biological aggregation is superimposed on slow unspecific aggregation. The distribution of adsorbed bionanoparticles per cell initially broadens considerably until all receptors are saturated, then narrows down to a quasi-equilibrium state where only unspecific aggregation persists. A low probability of bionanoparticle-receptor encounters, based on considerations concerning cell and receptor geometries, causes a rate limitation of biologically specific aggregation despite the high bionanoparticle to cell concentration ratio and purely attractive interaction potentials. Validation experiments with IgG1, CD13 and CD33 antibodies were performed by flow cytometry. By appropriate gating separate aggregation dynamics could be gained for each cell type. Since the expression levels of antigens on the cell surfaces vary between the experiments and because the quantification of adsorbed antibody numbers remains difficult, dimensionless experimental data is compared to the simulations with very good agreement. Selective and specific drug delivery to target cells might represent a future application of this principle. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
