Abstract
The issue of poor solubility of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) has been a salient area of investigation and novel drug delivery systems are being developed to improve the solubility of drugs, enhance their permeability and thereby their efficacy. Several techniques for solubilization enhancement of poorly soluble drugs are often employed at various stages of pharmaceutical drug product development. One such delivery system is the therapeutic deep eutectic system (THEDES), which showed great potential in the enhancement of solubility and permeability of drugs and ultimately augmenting their bioavailability. THEDES are made by mixing drugs with deep eutectic solvents (DESs) in a definite molar ratio by the hit and trial method. The DESs are a new class of green solvents which are non-toxic, cheap, easy to prepare, biodegradable and have multiple applications in the pharmaceutical industry. The terminologies such as ionic liquids (ILs), DES, THEDES, and therapeutic liquid eutectic systems (THELES) have been very much in use recently, and it is important to highlight the pharmaceutical applications of these unexplored reservoirs in drug solubilization enhancement, drug delivery routes, and in the management of various diseases. This review is aimed at discussing the components, formulation strategies, and routes of administration of THEDES that are used in developing the formulation. Also, the major pharmaceutical applications of THEDES in the treatment of various metabolic and non-metabolic diseases are reviewed.

Abstract
The review presents a detailed discussion of the evolving field studying interactions between ionic liquids (ILs) and biological systems. Originating from molten salt electrolytes to present multiapplication substances, ILs have found usage across various fields due to their exceptional physicochemical properties, including excellent tunability. However, their interactions with biological systems and potential influence on living organisms remain largely unexplored. This review examines the cytotoxic effects of ILs on cell cultures, biomolecules, and vertebrate and invertebrate organisms. Our understanding of IL toxicity, while growing in recent years, is yet nascent. The established findings include correlations between harmful effects of ILs and their ability to disturb cellular membranes, their potential to trigger oxidative stress in cells, and their ability to cause cell death via apoptosis. Future research directions proposed in the review include studying the distribution of various ILs within cellular compartments and organelles, investigating metabolic transformations of ILs in cells and organisms, detailed analysis of IL effects on proteins involved in oxidative stress and apoptosis, correlation studies between IL doses, exposure times and resulting adverse effects, and examination of effects of subtoxic concentrations of ILs on various biological objects. This review aims to serve as a critical analysis of the current body of knowledge on IL-related toxicity mechanisms. Furthermore, it can guide researchers toward the design of less toxic ILs and the informed use of ILs in drug development and medicine.

Abstract
Delivering cargo to the central nervous system (CNS) remains a pharmacological challenge. For infectious diseases such as HIV, the CNS acts as a latent reservoir that is inadequately managed by systemic antiretrovirals (ARTs). ARTs thus cannot eradicate HIV, and given CNS infection, patients experience neurological deficits collectively referred to as "neuroHIV". Herein, the development of bioinspired ionic liquid-coated nanoparticles (IL-NPs) for in situ hitchhiking on red blood cells (RBCs) is reported, which enables 48% brain delivery of intracarotid arterial- infused cargo. Moreover, IL choline trans-2-hexenoate (CA2HA 1:2) demonstrates preferential accumulation in parenchymal microglia over endothelial cells post-delivery. This study further demonstrates successful loading of abacavir (ABC), an ART that is challenging to encapsulate, into IL-NPs, and verifies retention of antiviral efficacy in vitro. IL-NPs are not cytotoxic to primary human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and the CA2HA 1:2 coating itself confers notable anti-viremic capacity. In addition, in vitro cell culture assays show markedly increased uptake of IL-NPs into neural cells compared to bare PLGA nanoparticles. This work debuts bioinspired ionic liquids as promising nanoparticle coatings to assist CNS biodistribution and has the potential to revolutionize the delivery of cargos (i.e., drugs, viral vectors) through compartmental barriers such as the blood-brain-barrier (BBB).

Abstract
Conductive hydrogels have attracted much attention for their wide application in the field of flexible wearable sensors due to their outstanding flexibility, conductivity and sensing properties. However, the weak mechanical properties, lack of frost resistance and susceptibility to microbial contamination of traditional conductive hydrogels greatly limit their practical application. In this work, multifunctional polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)/poly(acrylamide-co-1-vinyl-3-butylimidazolium bromide) (P(AAm-co-VBIMBr)) (PCPAV) ionic conductive hydrogels with high strength and good conductive, transparent, anti-freezing and antibacterial properties were constructed by introducing a network of chemically crosslinked AAm and VBIMBr copolymers into the base material of PVA and CMC by in situ free radical polymerization. Owing to the multiple interactions between the polymers, including covalent crosslinking, multiple hydrogen bonding interactions, and electrostatic interactions, the obtained ionic conductive hydrogels exhibit a high tensile strength (360.6 kPa), a large elongation at break (810.6%), good toughness, and fatigue resistance properties. The introduction of VBIMBr endows the PCPAV hydrogels with excellent transparency (∼92%), a high ionic conductivity (15.2 mS cm-1), antimicrobial activity and good flexibility and conductivity at sub-zero temperatures. Notably, the PCPAV hydrogels exhibit a wide strain range (0-800%), high strain sensitivity (GF = 3.75), fast response, long-term stability, and fantastic durability, which enable them to detect both large joint movements and minute muscle movements. Based on these advantages, it is believed that the PCPAV-based hydrogel sensors would have potential applications in health monitoring, human motion detection, soft robotics, ionic skins, human-machine interfaces, and other flexible electronic devices.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) are a class of liquid salts with characteristics such as a low melting point, an ionic nature, non-volatility, and tunable properties. Because of their adaptability, they have a significant influence in the field of fluorescence. This paper reviews the primary literature on the use of ILs in fluorescence sensing technologies. The kind of target material is utilized to classify the fluorescence sensors made with the use of ILs. They include using ILs as probes for metals, nitro explosives, small organic compounds, anions, and gases. The efficacy of an IL-based fluorescence sensor depends on the precise design to guarantee specificity, sensitivity, and a consistent reaction to the desired analyte. The precise method can differ depending on the chemical properties of the IL, the choice of fluorophore, and the interactions with the analyte. Overall, the viability of the aforementioned materials for chemical analysis is evaluated, and prospective possibilities for further development are identified.

Abstract
Lipid-based lyotropic liquid crystalline nanoparticles (LCNPs) face stability challenges in biological fluids during clinical translation. Ionic Liquids (ILs) have emerged as effective solvent additives for tuning the structure of LCNP's and enhancing their stability. We investigated the effect of a library of 21 choline-based biocompatible ILs with 9 amino acid anions as well as 10 other organic/inorganic anions during the preparation of phytantriol (PHY)-based LCNPs, followed by incubation in human serum and serum proteins. Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) results show that the phase behaviour of the LCNPs depends on the IL concentration and anion structure. Incubation with human serum led to a phase transition from the inverse bicontinuous cubic (Q2) to the inverse hexagonal (H2) mesophase, influenced by the specific IL present. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and proteomics analysis of selected samples, including PHY control and those with choline glutamate, choline hexanoate, and choline geranate, identified abundant proteins in the protein corona, including albumin, apolipoproteins, and serotransferrin. The composition of the protein corona varied among samples, shedding light on the intricate interplay between ILs, internal structure and surface chemistry of LCNPs, and biological fluids.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An urgent need to find new methods for crop protection remains open due to the withdrawal from the market of the most toxic pesticides and increasing consumer awareness. One of the alternatives that can be used in modern agriculture is the use of bifunctional compounds whose actions towards plant protection are wider than those of conventional pesticides. RESULTS In this study, we present the investigation of the biological efficacy of nine dual-functional salts containing a systemic acquired resistance (SAR)-inducing anion and the benzethonium cation. A significant result of the presented study is the discovery of the SAR induction activity of benzethonium chloride, which was previously reported only as an antimicrobial agent. Moreover, the concept of dual functionality was proven, as the application of presented compounds in a given concentrations resulted both in the control of human and plant bacteria species and induction of SAR. CONCLUSION The strategy presented in this article shows the capabilities of derivatization of common biologically active compounds into their ionic derivatives to obtain bifunctional salts. This approach may be an example of the design of potential new compounds for modern agriculture. It provides plants with two complementary actions allowing to provide efficient protection to plants, if one mode of action is ineffective. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
With the rise in diabetes mellitus cases worldwide, oral delivery of insulin is preferred over subcutaneous insulin administration due to its good patient compliance and non-invasiveness, simplicity, and versatility. However, oral insulin delivery is hampered by various gastrointestinal barriers that result in low drug bioavailability and insufficient therapeutic efficiency. Numerous strategies have been developed to overcome these barriers and increase the bioavailability of oral insulin. Yet, no commercial oral insulin product is available to address all clinical hurdles because of various substantial obstacles related to the structural organization and physiological function of the gastrointestinal tract. Herein, we discussed the significant physiological barriers (including chemical, enzymatic, and physical barriers) that hinder the transportation and absorption of orally delivered insulin. Then, we showcased recent significant and innovative advances in oral insulin delivery technologies. Finally, we concluded the review with remarks on future perspectives on oral insulin delivery technologies and potential challenges for forthcoming clinical translation of oral insulin delivery technologies.

Abstract
BX795 is an emerging drug candidate that has shown a lot of promise as a next-generation non-nucleoside antiviral agent for the topical treatment of herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV-1) and herpes simplex virus type-2 (HSV-2) infections. Our studies indicated that BX795 has limited oral bioavailability, which could be attributed to its low and pH-dependent solubility. Lipid-based formulations such as self-nanoemulsifying systems (SNESs) can improve the solubility and oral bioavailability of BX795, but the poor lipid solubility of BX795 further limits the development of SNES. To improve the loading of BX795 into SNES, we evaluated the ability of various bulky and biocompatible anions to transform BX795 into an ionic liquid (IL) with higher lipid solubility. Our studies showed that sodium lauryl sulfate and docusate sodium were able to transform BX795 into IL. Compared to pure BX795, the developed BX795 ILs showed differential in vitro cytocompatibility to HeLa cells but exhibited similar in vitro antiviral activity against HSV-2. Interestingly, BX795 docusate (BX795-Doc), an IL of BX795 with ∼135-fold higher lipid solubility than pure BX795, could be successfully incorporated into an SNES, and the developed BX795-Doc-SNES could readily form nanoemulsions of size ≤200 nm irrespective of the pH of the buffer used for dilution. Our in vitro studies showed that BX795-Doc-SNES retained the inherent antiviral activity against HSV-2 and showed similar in vitro cytocompatibility, indicating the availability of BX795 from the SNES in vitro. Finally, orally delivered SNES containing BX795-Doc showed a significant reduction in HSV-2 infection in mice compared to the untreated control. Thus, the transformation of BX795 into IL and the subsequent incorporation of the BX795 IL into the SNES are an effective strategy to improve oral therapy of genital herpes infection.

Abstract
Synthetic cationic lipids have garnered significant attention as promising candidates for gene/DNA transfection in therapeutic applications. The phase behavior of the vesicles formed by these lipids is intriguing, revealing intricate connections to the structure and dynamics of the membrane. These phenomena emerge from the complex interplay between hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions of the lipids. In this study, we explore the impact of an ionic liquid-based surfactant, 1-decyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide (DMIM[Br]), on the structural, dynamical, and phase behavior of cationic dihexadecyldimethylammonium bromide (DHDAB) vesicles. Our investigations indicate that the addition of DMIM[Br] increases the vesicle size while thinning the membrane. Further, DMIM[Br] also induces substantial changes in the membrane phase behavior. At 10 and 25 mol %, DMIM[Br] eliminates the pre-transition from coagel to intermediate crystalline (IC) phase and decreases the onset temperature of the main phase transition to the fluid phase. In the cooling cycle, the addition of DMIM[Br] further induces the formation of an intermediate gel phase. This behavior is reminiscent of the non-synchronous ordering observed in the DODAB membrane, a longer-chain counterpart of DHDAB. Interestingly, at 40 mol % of DMIM[Br], the formation of the intermediate gel phase is largely suppressed. Neutron scattering data provide evidence that the addition of DMIM[Br] enhances lipid mobility in coagel and fluid phases, suggesting that DMIM[Br] acts as a plasticizer, enhancing membrane fluidity across all of the phases. Our findings infer that DMIM[Br] modulates the membrane's phase behavior and fluidity, two essential ingredients for the efficient transport of cargo, by controlling the balance of electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions.

Abstract
Cryopreservation of cells, tissues, and organs is widely used in the biomedical and research world. There are different cryopreservatives that are used for this process; however, many of them, such as DMSO, are used despite the problems they present, mainly due to the toxicity it presents to certain types of samples. The aim of this Review is to highlight the different types of substances used in the cryopreservation process. It has been shown that some of these substances are well-known, as in the case of the families of alcohols, sugars, sulfoxides, etc. However, in recent years, other compounds have appeared, such as ionic liquids, deep eutectic solvents, or certain polymers, which open the door to new cryopreservation methods and are also less toxic to frozen samples.

Abstract
Green fluorescent protein (GFP) and its variants are widely used in medical and biological research, especially acting as indicators of protein structural integrity, protein-protein interactions and as biosensors. This study employs superfolder GFP (sfGFP) to investigate the impact of varying alkyl chain length of 1-Cn-3-methylimidazolium chloride ionic liquid (IL) series ([Cnmim]Cl, n = 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12) on the protein fluorescence, structure, hydration, aggregation dynamics and crystallization behaviour. The results revealed a concentration-dependent decrease in the sfGFP chromophore fluorescence, particularly in long alkyl chain ILs ([C10mim]Cl and [C12mim]Cl). Tryptophan (Trp) fluorescence showed the quenching rate increased with longer alkyl chains indicating a nonpolar interaction between Trp57 and the alkyl chain. Secondary structural changes were observed at the high IL concentration of 1.5 M in [C10mim]Cl and [C12mim]Cl. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) indicated relatively stable protein sizes, but with IL aggregates present in [C10mim]Cl and [C12mim]Cl solutions. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) data showed increased protein size and aggregation with longer alkyl chain ILs. Notably, ILs and salts, excluding [C2mim]Cl, promoted sfGFP crystallization. This study emphasizes the influence of the cation alkyl chain length and concentration on protein stability and aggregation, providing insights into utilizing IL solvents for protein stabilization and crystallization purposes.

Abstract
The design of a scaffold that can regulate the sequential differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) according to the endochondral ossification (ECO) mechanism is highly desirable for effective bone regeneration. In this study, we successfully fabricated a dual-networked composite hydrogel composed of gelatin and hyaluronic acid (termed GCDH-M), which can sequentially release chondroitin sulfate (CS) and magnesium/silicon (Mg/Si) ions to provide spatiotemporal guidance for chondrogenesis, angiogenesis, and osteogenesis. The fast release of CS is from the GCDH hydrogel, and the sustained releases of Mg/Si ions are from poly(lactide-co-glycolide) microspheres embedded in the hydrogel. There is a difference in the release rates between CS and ions, resulting in the ability for the fast release of CS and sustained release of ions. The dual networks between the modified gelatin and hyaluronic acid via covalent bonding and host-guest interactions render the hydrogel with some dynamic feature to meet the differentiation development of BMSCs laden inside the hydrogel, i.e., transforming into a chondrogenic phenotype, further to a hypertrophic phenotype and eventually to an osteogenic phenotype. As evidenced by the results of in vitro and in vivo evaluations, this GCDH-M composite hydrogel was proved to be able to create an optimal microenvironment for embedded BMSCs responding to the sequential guiding signals, which aligns with the rhythm of the ECO process and ultimately boosts bone regeneration. The promising outcome achieved with this innovative hydrogel system sheds light on novel scaffold design targeting bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Skin, characterized by its distinctive gradient structure and interwoven fibers, possesses remarkable mechanical properties and highly sensitive attributes, enabling it to detect an extensive range of stimuli. Inspired by these inherent qualities, a pioneering approach involving the crosslinking of macromolecules through in situ electron beam irradiation (EBI) is proposed to fabricate gradient ionogels. Such a design offers remarkable mechanical properties, including excellent tensile properties (>1000%), exceptional toughness (100 MJ m-3 ), fatigue resistance, a broad temperature range (-65-200°C), and a distinctive gradient modulus change. Moreover, the ionogel sensor exhibits an ultra-fast response time (60 ms) comparable to skin, an incredibly low detection limit (1 kPa), and an exceptionally wide detection range (1 kPa-1 MPa). The exceptional gradient ionogel material holds tremendous promise for applications in the field of smart sensors, presenting a distinct strategy for fabricating flexible gradient materials.

Abstract
In the past 25 years, a vast family of complex organic salts known as room-temperature ionic liquids (ILs) has received increasing attention due to their potential applications. ILs are composed by an organic cation and either an organic or inorganic anion, and possess several intriguing properties such as low vapor pressure and being liquid around room temperature. Several biological studies flagged their moderate-to-high (cyto)-toxicity. Toxicity is, however, also a synonym of affinity, and this boosted a series of biophysical and chemical-physical investigations aimed at exploiting ILs in bio-nanomedicine, drug-delivery, pharmacology, and bio-nanotechnology. Several of these investigations focused on the interaction between ILs and lipid membranes, aimed at determining the microscopic mechanisms behind their interaction. This is the focus of this review work. These studies have been carried out on a variety of different lipid bilayer systems ranging from 1-lipid to 5-lipids systems, and also on cell-extracted membranes. They have been carried out at different chemical-physical conditions and by the use of a number of different approaches, including atomic force microscopy, neutron and X-ray scattering, dynamic light scattering, differential scanning calorimetry, surface quartz microbalance, nuclear magnetic resonance, confocal fluorescence microscopy, and molecular dynamics simulations. The aim of this "2023 Michèle Auger Award" review work is to provide the reader with an up-to-date overview of this fascinating research field where "ILs meet lipid bilayers (aka biomembranes)," with the aim to boost it further and expand its cross-disciplinary edges towards novel high-impact ideas/applications in pharmacology, drug delivery, biomedicine, and bio-nanotechnology.

Abstract
DNA nanotechnology is the future of many products in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Self-assembly of this negatively charged biopolymer at surfaces and interfaces is an essential step to elaborate its field of applications. In this study, the ionic liquid (IL) monolayer-assisted self-assembly of DNA macromolecules at the air-water interface has been closely monitored by employing various quantitative techniques, namely, surface pressure-area (π-A) isotherms, surface potential, interfacial rheology, and X-ray reflectivity (XRR). The π-A isotherms reveal that the IL 1,3-didecyl 3-methyl imidazolium chloride induces DNA self-assembly at the interface, leading to a thick viscoelastic film. The interfacial rheology exhibits a notable rise in the viscoelastic modulus as the surface pressure increases. The values of storage and loss moduli measured as a function of strain frequency suggest a relaxation frequency that depends on the length of the macromolecule. The XRR measurements indicate a considerable increase in DNA layer thickness at the elevated surface pressures depending on the number of base pairs of the DNA. The results are considered in terms of the electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions, allowing a quantitative conclusion about the arrangement of DNA strands underneath the monolayer of the ILs at the air-water interface.

Abstract
Transdermal drug delivery system (TDDS) was an effective way to realize controlled drug delivery. However, realizing zero-order controlled drug skin delivery was still challenging in the drug-in-adhesive patch. This study provided a strategy to accomplish this delivery form by stabilizing the drug concentration in adhesive through concentration-dependent competitive interaction. Clonidine (CLO) and Granisetron (GRA) were chosen as the model drugs which were of high skin permeability, and polydimethylaminoethyl acrylate (EA) as an excipient to interact with hydroxyphenyl adhesive (HP). Drug release, permeation and pharmacokinetic study were conducted to evaluate the controlled effect of HP-EA. The molecular interaction was characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR and XPS. Dynamic simulation and molecular docking further clarified the competitive interaction involved in the release process. Both the drug skin permeation study of CLO and GRA patch based on the HP-EA adhesive showed good zero-order fitting with r of 0.994 and 0.998, compared with non-functional adhesive (0-PSA). Furthermore, the pharmacokinetic study of the CLO patch showed a plateau phase for around 52 h without influencing the area under concentration-time curve (AUC), indicating that the HP-EA could realize zero-order drug skin delivery. The mechanism study revealed that EA serving as a 'buffer component' promoted the conversion of the ionic CLO to the neutrals the as the neutrals released, which stabilized '1% neutrals CLO concentration'. In conclusion, the drug delivery system based on the concentration-dependent competitive interaction broadened our understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in zero-order controlled release in transdermal patches which would promote the development of zero-order drug delivery in TDDS.

Abstract
With the rise of antibiotic resistance globally, coupled with evolving and emerging infectious diseases, there is an urgent need for the development of novel antimicrobials. Deep eutectic solvents (DES) are a new generation of eutectic mixtures that depict promising attributes with several biological implications. DES exhibit unique properties such as low toxicity, biodegradability, and high thermal stability. Herein, the antimicrobial properties of DES and their mechanisms of action against a range of microorganisms, including bacteria, amoebae, fungi, viruses, and anti-cancer properties are reviewed. Overall, DES represent a promising class of novel antimicrobial agents as well as possessing other important biological attributes, however, future studies on DES are needed to investigate their underlying antimicrobial mechanism, as well as their in vivo effects, for use in the clinic and public at large.

Abstract
Human serum albumin (HSA) effectively binds different types of low-molecular-weight compounds and thus enables their distribution in living organisms. Recently, it has been reported that the protein-ligand interactions play a crucial role in bioaccumulation processes and provide an important sorption phase, especially for ionogenic compounds. Therefore, the binding interactions of such compounds with proteins are the subject of an ongoing interest in environmental and life sciences. In this paper, the influence of some counter-ions, namely [B(CN)4]- and [C(CN)3]- on the affinity of the [IM1-12]+ towards HSA has been investigated and discussed based on experimental methods (isothermal titration calorimetry and steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy) and molecular dynamics-based computational approaches. Furthermore, the thermal stability of the resulting HSA/ligand complexes was assessed using DSC and CD spectroscopy. As an outcome of the work, it has been ascertained that the protein is able to bind simultaneously the ligands under study but in different regions of HSA. Thus, the presence in the system of [IM1-12]+ does not disturb the binding of [C(CN)3]- and [B(CN)4]-. The presented results provide important information on the presence of globular proteins and some ionogenic compounds in the distribution and bioaccumulation of ILs in the environment and living organisms.

Abstract
Introduction: Hydroxyapatite (HAP or HA) nanofibers are very attractive in the field of biomedical engineering. However, templates used for preparing HAP nanofibers are usually hydrophobic molecules, like fatty acids and/or surfactants, which are difficult to remove and potentially toxic. Therefore, it is important to develop a green approach to prepare HAP nanofibers. Methods: Imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs) were used as templates to control the crystallization of HAP. The obtained HAP nanofibers were composited into polyvinyl alcohol-sodium alginate (PVA-Alg) hydrogel (HAP@H). The rheological performance, stretching, and compression properties were tested. Scanning electron microscope (SEM), high resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were adopted to characterize the morphology, size, crystallographic orientations, and phase of HAP@H. Results: HAP nanofibers with a length of ∼50 μm were harvested. The DSC results proved that water loss temperature increased from 98°C (for pure hydrogel) to 107°C (for HAP@H). Also, HAP@H hydrogel presented much better porous structure, tensile performance, and compressive performance than that of pure hydrogel. Discussion: The morphology, size, and growth direction of HAP could be modulated easily by altering the alkyl chain length of ILs' cations. This is possibly due to face-specific adsorption of imidazolium moieties on HAP nanocrystals. The enhancing performance of HAP@H is probably due to the composited highly oriented HAP nanofibers.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) have been extensively used in drug formulation and delivery as designer solvents and other components because of their inherent tunability and useful physicochemical and biopharmaceutical properties. ILs can be used to manage some of the operational and functional challenges of drug delivery, including drug solubility, permeability, formulation instability, and in vivo systemic toxicity, that are associated with conventional organic solvents/agents. Furthermore, ILs have been recognized as potential solvents to address the polymorphism, limited solubility, poor permeability, instability, and low bioavailability of crystalline drugs. In this account, we discuss the technological progress and strategies toward designing biocompatible ILs and explore potential biomedical applications, namely the solubilization of small and macromolecular drugs, the creation of active pharmaceutical ingredients, and the delivery of pharmaceuticals.

Abstract
Bio-compatible ionic liquids (Bio-ILs) represent a class of solvents with peculiar properties and exhibit huge potential for their applications in different fields of chemistry. Ever since they were discovered, researchers have used bio-ILs in diverse fields such as biomass dissolution, CO2 sequestration, and biodegradation of pesticides. This review highlights the ongoing research studies focused on elucidating the microscopic structure of bio-ILs based on cholinium cation ([Ch]+ ) and amino acid ([AA]- ) anions using the state-of-the-arta b i n i t i o ${ab\hskip0.25eminitio}$ and classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The microscopic structure associated with these green ILs guides their suitability for specific applications. ILs of this class differ in the side chain of the amino acid anions, and varying the side chain significantly affects the structure of these ILs and thus helps in tuning the efficiency of biomass dissolution. This review demonstrates the central role of the side chain on the morphology of choline amino acid ([Ch][AA]) bio-ILs. The seemingly matured field of bio-ILs and their employment in various applications still holds significant potential, and the insights on their microscopic structure would steer the field of target specific application of these green ILs.

Abstract
Less than 5% of intravenously-injected nanoparticles (NPs) reach destined sites in the body due to opsonization and immune-based clearance in vascular circulation. By hitchhiking in situ onto specific blood components post-injection, NPs can selectively target tissue sites for unprecedentedly high drug delivery rates. Choline carboxylate ionic liquids (ILs) are biocompatible liquid salts <100X composed of bulky asymmetric cations and anions. This class of ILs has been previously shown to significantly extend circulation time and redirect biodistribution in BALB/c mice post-IV injection via hitchhiking on red blood cell (RBC) membranes. Herein, we synthesized & screened 60 choline carboxylic acid-based ILs to coat PLGA NPs and present the impact of structurally engineering the coordinated anion identity to selectively interface and hitchhike lymphocytes, monocytes, granulocytes, platelets, and RBCs in whole mouse blood for in situ targeted drug delivery. Furthermore, we find this nanoparticle platform to be biocompatible (non-cytotoxic), translate to human whole blood by resisting serum uptake and maintaining modest hitchhiking, and also significantly extend circulation retention over 24 hours in BALB/c healthy adult mice after IV injection. Because of their altered circulation profiles, we additionally observe dramatically different organ accumulation profiles compared to bare PLGA NPs. This study establishes an initial breakthrough platform for a modular and transformative targeting technology to hitchhike onto blood components with high efficacy and safety in the bloodstream post-IV administration.

Abstract
A strategy was developed to prepare antibacterial surfaces by electropolymerization of a pyrrole-functionalized imidazolium ionic liquid bearing an halometallate anion. The objective was to combine the antibacterial efficiency of polypyrrole (PPy) with those of the ionic liquid's components (cation and anion). For this, N-(1-methyl-3-octylimidazolium)pyrrole bromide monomer [PyC8MIm]Br was synthesized and coordinated to ZnCl2 affording [PyC8MIm]Br-ZnCl2. The antibacterial properties of [PyC8MIm]Br-ZnCl2 monomer were evaluated against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus by measurement of the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values. This monomer presents higher activity against S. aureus (MIC = 0.098 μmol·mL-1) than against E. coli (MIC = 2.10 μmol·mL-1). Mixtures of pyrrole and the pyrrole-functionalized ionic liquid [PyC8MIm]Br-ZnCl2 were then used for the electrodeposition of PPy films on Fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrates. The concentration of pyrrole was fixed to 50 mM, while the concentration of [PyC8MIm]Br-ZnCl2 was varied from 5 to 100 mM. The efficient incorporation of the imidazolium cation and zinc halometallate anion into the films was confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements confirmed the homogeneity of the different films with structures that depend on the [PyC8MIm]Br-ZnCl2 concentration. The films' thickness determined by profilometry varies only slightly with the [PyC8MIm]Br-ZnCl2 concentration from 7.4 μm at 5 mM to 8.9 μM at 100 mM. The films become more hydrophilic with an increase of [PyC8MIm]Br-ZnCl2 concentration with water contact angles varying from 47° at the lowest concentration to 32° at the highest concentration. The antibacterial activities of the different PPy films were determined both by the halo inhibition method and by the colony forming units (CFUs) counting method over time against Gram-positive S. aureus and Gram-negative E. coli bacteria. Films obtained by incorporation of [PyC8MIm]Br-ZnCl2 showed excellent antibacterial properties, at least two times higher than those of neat PPy, validating our strategy. Furthermore, a comparison of the antibacterial properties of the films obtained using the same [PyC8MIm]Br-ZnCl2 concentration (50 mM) evidenced much better activity against Gram-positive (no bacterial survival within 5 min) than against Gram-negative bacteria (no bacterial survival within 3 h). Finally, the antibacterial performances over time could be tuned by the concentration of the employed pyrrole-functionalized ionic liquid monomer. Against E. coli, using 100 mM of [PyC8MIm]Br-ZnCl2, the bacteria were totally killed within a few minutes, using 50 mM, they were killed after 2 h while using 10 mM, about 20% of bacteria survived even after 6 h.

Abstract
Preparation of the ionic liquid (IL) form of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), termed API-IL, has attracted attention because it can improve upon certain disadvantages of APIs, such as poor water solubility and low stability. Edaravone (3-methyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolin-5-one) is a clinically approved cerebroprotective agent against ischemic stroke and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, while new formulations that enable improvement of its physicochemical properties and biodistribution are desired. Herein, we report a newly developed API-IL of edaravone (edaravone-IL), in which edaravone is used as an anionic molecule. We investigated the physicochemical properties of edaravone-IL and its therapeutic effect against cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, a secondary injury after an ischemic stroke. Among the cationic molecules used for edaravone-IL preparation, the IL prepared with tetrabutylphosphonium cation existed as a liquid at room temperature, and significantly increased the water solubility of edaravone without decreasing its antioxidative activity. Importantly, edaravone-IL formed negatively charged nanoparticles upon suspension in water. Intravenous administration of edaravone-IL showed significantly higher blood circulation time and lower distribution in the kidney compared with edaravone solution. Moreover, edaravone-IL significantly suppressed brain cell damage and motor functional deficits in model rats of cerebral I/R injury and showed comparable cerebroprotective effect to edaravone. Taken together, these results suggest that edaravone-IL could be a new form of edaravone with superior physicochemical properties and could be useful for the treatment of cerebral I/R injury.

Abstract
Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have revolutionized the field of drug delivery through their applications in siRNA delivery to the liver (Onpattro) and their use in the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna COVID-19 mRNA vaccines. While LNPs have been extensively studied for the delivery of RNA drugs to muscle and liver targets, their potential to deliver drugs to challenging tissue targets such as the brain remains underexplored. Multiple brain disorders currently lack safe and effective therapies and therefore repurposing LNPs could potentially be a game changer for improving drug delivery to cellular targets both at and across the blood-brain barrier (BBB). In this review, we will discuss (1) the rationale and factors involved in optimizing LNPs for brain delivery, (2) ionic liquid-coated LNPs as a potential approach for increasing LNP accumulation in the brain tissue and (3) considerations, open questions and potential opportunities in the development of LNPs for delivery to the brain.

Abstract
Obesity is currently a prerequisite for more than 70% of adults, including chronic obesity and long-term obesity. With the increase of diabetes patients in the world, it is urgent to develop effective oral drugs to replace insulin. However, the gastrointestinal tract is a main obstacle to oral drug preparations. Here, a highly effective oral drug was developed, mainly formulated as an ionic liquid (IL) prepared by l-(-)-carnitine and geranic acid. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations showed that l-(-)-carnitine and geranic acid can exist stably through hydrogen bonding. IL can significantly enhance the transdermal transport of drugs. In vitro study of intestinal permeability showed that particles formed by IL can prevent the absorption of intestinal fat. Compared with the control group, oral administration of IL (10 mL kg-1) significantly reduced blood glucose, white adipose tissue in the liver and epididymis, and the expression of SREBP-1c and ACC in IL. Therefore, these results and high-throughput sequencing analysis showed that IL can effectively reduce the intestinal absorption of adipose tissue to reduce blood glucose. IL has good biocompatibility and stability. Therefore, IL has a certain application value in the field of oral drug-delivery carriers, which provides an effective means for the treatment of diabetes and is a potential tool to solve the epidemic of obesity.

Abstract
Ionic liquids are a class of organic molten salts that consist entirely of cations and anions. They are characterized by their low vapor pressure, low viscosity, low toxicity, high thermal stability, and strong antifungal potential. In this study, the inhibitory performance of ionic liquid cations against Penicillium citrinum, Trichoderma viride, and Aspergillus niger was investigated, along with the mechanism of cell membrane disruption. The Oxford cup method, SEM, and TEM were employed to examine the extent of damage and the specific site of action of ionic liquids on the mycelium and cell structure of these fungi. The results showed that 1-decyl-3-methylimidazole had a strong inhibitory effect on TV; benzyldimethyldodecylammonium chloride had a weak inhibitory effect on PC, TV, AN, and a mixed culture; while dodecylpyridinium chloride exhibited significant inhibitory effects on PC, TV, AN, and Mix, with more prominent effects observed on AN and Mix, exhibiting MIC values of 5.37 mg/mL, 5.05 mg/mL, 5.10 mg/mL, and 5.23 mg/mL, respectively. The mycelium of the mildews showed drying, partial loss, distortion, and uneven thickness. The cell structure showed separation of the plasma wall. The absorbance of the extracellular fluid of PC and TV reached the maximum after 30 min, while that of AN reached the maximum after 60 min. The pH of the extracellular fluid decreased initially and then increased within 60 min, followed by a continuous decrease. These findings provide important insights for the application of ionic liquid antifungal agents in bamboo, medicine, and food.

Abstract
Conductive hydrogels (CHs) combine the biomimetic properties of hydrogels with the physiological and electrochemical properties of conductive materials, and have attracted extensive attention in the past few years. In addition, CHs have high conductivity and electrochemical redox properties and can be used to detect electrical signals generated in biological systems and conduct electrical stimulation to regulate the activities and functions of cells including cell migration, cell proliferation, and cell differentiation. These properties give CHs unique advantages in tissue repair. However, the current review of CHs is mostly focused on their applications as biosensors. Therefore, this article reviewed the new progress of CHs in tissue repair including nerve tissue regeneration, muscle tissue regeneration, skin tissue regeneration and bone tissue regeneration in the past five years. We first introduced the design and synthesis of different types of CHs such as carbon-based CHs, conductive polymer-based CHs, metal-based CHs, ionic CHs, and composite CHs, and the types and mechanisms of tissue repair promoted by CHs including anti-bacterial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, stimulus response and intelligent delivery, real-time monitoring, and promoted cell proliferation and tissue repair related pathway activation, which provides a useful reference for further preparation of bio-safer and more efficient CHs used in tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Proteins are among the most common therapeutics for the treatment of diabetes, autoimmune diseases, cancer, and metabolic diseases, among others. Despite their common use, current protein therapies, most of which are injectables, have several limitations. Large proteins such as monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) suffer from poor absorption after subcutaneous injections, thus forcing their administration by intravenous injections. Even small proteins such as insulin suffer from slow pharmacokinetics which poses limitations in effective management of diabetes. Here, a deep eutectic-based delivery strategy is used to offer a generalized approach for improving protein absorption after subcutaneous injections. The lead formulation enhances absorption of mAbs after subcutaneous injections by ≈200%. The same composition also improves systemic absorption of subcutaneously injected insulin faster than Humalog, the current gold-standard of rapid acting insulin. Mechanistic studies reveal that the beneficial effect of deep eutectics on subcutaneous absorption is mediated by their ability to reduce the interactions of proteins with the subcutaneous matrix, especially collagen. Studies also confirm that these deep eutectics are safe for subcutaneous injections. Deep eutectic-based formulations described here open new possibilities for subcutaneous injections of therapeutic proteins.

Abstract
Scents are volatile compounds highly employed in a wide range of manufactured items, such as fine perfumery, household products, and functional foods. One of the main directions of the research in this area aims to enhance the longevity of scents by designing efficient delivery systems to control the release rate of these volatile molecules and also increase their stability. Several approaches to release scents in a controlled manner have been developed in recent years. Thus, different controlled release systems have been prepared, including polymers, metal-organic frameworks and mechanically interlocked systems, among others. This review is focused on the preparation of different scaffolds to accomplish a slow release of scents, by pointing out examples reported in the last five years. In addition to discuss selected examples, a critical perspective on the state of the art of this research field is provided, comparing the different types of scent delivery systems.

Abstract
Advancements in the fields of ionic liquids (ILs) broaden its applications not only in traditional use but also in different pharmaceutical and biomedical fields. Ionic liquids "Solutions for Your Success" have received a lot of interest from scientists due to a myriad of applications in the pharmaceutical industry for drug delivery systems as well as targeting different diseases. Solubility is a critical physicochemical property that determines the drug's fate at the target site. Many promising drug candidates fail in various phases of drug research due to poor solubility. In this context, ionic liquids are regarded as effective drug delivery systems for poorly soluble medicines. ILs are also able to combine different anions/cations with other cations/anions to produce salts that satisfy the concept behind the ILs. The important characteristics of ionic liquids are the modularity of their physicochemical properties depending on the application. The review highlights the recent advancement and further applications of ionic liquids to deliver drugs in the pharmaceutical and biomedical fields.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs), due to their structural features, have unique physical and chemical properties and are environmentally friendly. Every year, the number of studies devoted to the use of ILs in medicine and pharmaceutics is growing. In nuclear medicine, the use of ILs with self-buffering capacity in the synthesis of radiopharmaceuticals is extremely important. This research is devoted to obtaining new ionic buffer agents containing N-benzylethanolammonium (BEA) cations and anions of carboxylic acids. A series of new BEA salts was synthesized and identified by NMR (1H, 13C), IR spectroscopy and elemental and thermal analysis. The crystal structures of BEA hydrogen succinate, hydrogen oxalate and oxalate were determined by x-ray diffraction. Newly synthesized compounds were tested as buffer solutions in 68Ga- and Al18F-radiolabeling reactions with a series of bifunctional chelating agents and clinically relevant peptides used for visualization of malignancies by positron emission tomography. The results obtained confirm the promise of using new buffers in the synthesis of 68Ga- and Al18F-labeled radiopharmaceuticals.

Abstract
Delivering cargo to the central nervous system (CNS) remains a pharmacological challenge. For infectious diseases such as HIV, the CNS acts as a latent reservoir that is inadequately managed by systemic antiretrovirals (ARTs). ARTs thus cannot eradicate HIV, and given CNS infection, patients experience an array of neurological deficits that are collectively referred to as 'neuroHIV'. Herein we report the development of bioinspired ionic liquid-coated nanoparticles (IL-NPs) for in situ hitchhiking on red blood cells (RBCs), which enabled 48% delivery of intravenously infused cargo to the brain. Moreover, the ionic liquid (IL) choline trans-2-hexenoate (CA2HA 1:2) demonstrated preferential accumulation in parenchymal microglia over endothelial cells post-delivery. We further demonstrate the successful loading of abacavir (ABC), an ART that is challenging to encapsulate, into the IL-coated NPs and verify the retention of antiviral efficacy in vitro. IL-NPs were not cytotoxic to primary human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and the CA2HA 1:2 coating conferred notable anti-viremic capacity on its own. In addition, in vitro cell culture assays showed markedly increased uptake of IL-coated nanoparticles into neuronal cells compared to bare nanoparticles. This work debuts bioinspired ionic liquids as promising nanoparticle coatings to assist CNS biodistribution and has the potential to revolutionize the delivery of cargos (i.e., drugs, viral vectors) through compartmental barriers such as the blood-brain-barrier (BBB), illustrated in the graphical abstract below.

Abstract
This mini-review focuses on the various roles that ionic liquids (ILs) play in the development and applications of biopolymer-based drug delivery systems (DDSs). Biopolymers are particularly attractive as drug delivery matrices due to their biocompatibility, low immunogenicity, biodegradability, and strength, whereas ILs can assist the formation of drug delivery systems. In this work, we showcase the different strategies that were explored using ILs in biopolymer-based DDSs, including impregnation of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs)-ILs into biopolymeric materials, employment of the ILs to simplify the process of making the biopolymer-based DDSs, and using the ILs either as dopants or as anchoring agents.

Abstract
The emergence of biopharmaceuticals, including proteins, nucleic acids, peptides, and vaccines, revolutionized the medical field, contributing to significant advances in the prophylaxis and treatment of chronic and life-threatening diseases. However, biopharmaceuticals manufacturing involves a set of complex upstream and downstream processes, which considerably impact their cost. In particular, despite the efforts made in the last decades to improve the existing technologies, downstream processing still accounts for more than 80% of the total biopharmaceutical production cost. On the other hand, the formulation of biological products must ensure they maintain their therapeutic performance and long-term stability, while preserving their physical and chemical structure. Ionic-liquid (IL)-based approaches arose as a promise alternative, showing the potential to be used in downstream processing to provide increased purity and recovery yield, as well as excipients for the development of stable biopharmaceutical formulations. This manuscript reviews the most important progress achieved in both fields. The work developed is critically discussed and complemented with a SWOT analysis.

Abstract
Kinetic resolution is one of the methods which allows obtaining enantiomerically pure compounds. In the study presented herein, enantioselective biotransformations of (R,S)-1-phenylethanol were performed with the use of various catalytic systems containing ionic liquids and n-heptane or toluene as a reaction medium, vinyl acetate or isopropenyl acetate as an acetylating agent, and lipases from Burkholderia cepacia or Candida rugosa. The conducted studies proved that the use of Burkholderia cepacia lipase, vinyl acetate, and n-heptane with [EMIM][BF4] allows obtaining enantiomerically pure 1-phenylethyl acetate, with the enantiomeric excess of products eep = 98.9%, conversion c = 40.1%, and high value of enantioselectivity E > 200. Additionally, the use of ionic liquids allowed us to reuse enzyme in 5 reaction cycles, ensuring the high operational stability of the protein.

Abstract
We conceptualize bioresource upgrade for sustainable energy, environment, and biomedicine with a focus on circular economy, sustainability, and carbon neutrality using high availability and low utilization biomass (HALUB). We acme energy-efficient technologies for sustainable energy and material recovery and applications. The technologies of thermochemical conversion (TC), biochemical conversion (BC), electrochemical conversion (EC), and photochemical conversion (PTC) are summarized for HALUB. Microalgal biomass could contribute to a biofuel HHV of 35.72 MJ Kg-1 and total benefit of 749 $/ton biomass via TC. Specific surface area of biochar reached 3000 m2 g-1 via pyrolytic carbonization of waste bean dregs. Lignocellulosic biomass can be effectively converted into bio-stimulants and biofertilizers via BC with a high conversion efficiency of more than 90%. Besides, lignocellulosic biomass can contribute to a current density of 672 mA m-2 via EC. Bioresource can be 100% selectively synthesized via electrocatalysis through EC and PTC. Machine learning, techno-economic analysis, and life cycle analysis are essential to various upgrading approaches of HALUB. Sustainable biomaterials, sustainable living materials and technologies for biomedical and multifunctional applications like nano-catalysis, microfluidic and micro/nanomotors beyond are also highlighted. New techniques and systems for the complete conversion and utilization of HALUB for new energy and materials are further discussed.

Abstract
Long-acting transdermal drug delivery system (TDDS) requires high drug-loading and drug controlled-release. To simultaneously improve drug-polymer miscibility and realize drug controlled-release, this work aimed to develop a new pressure sensitive adhesive modified with hydroxyphenyl (HP-PSA) by introducing doubly ionic H-bond into drug-PSA interaction. Eight model drugs divided into R3N, R2NH and no N type were chosen to understand the characteristics of the HP-PSA and inner mechanism. The results showed that the doubly ionic H-bond between R3N and R2NH type drugs and HP-PSA, differing from the ionic bond and neutral H-bond, was a reversible and relatively strong interaction. It could significantly enhance their drug-loading by 1.5 to 7 times and control drug release rate to its 1/5 to 1/2 without altering its total release properties, outperforming the commercial Duro-Tak® 87-2510 and Duro-Tak® 87-2852 adhesives. According to the pharmacokinetics results, the high drug-loading patches based on HP-PSA achieved a sustainable plasma drug concentration avoiding burst release, and over 2 times area under concentration-time curve (AUC) as well as 6 times mean residence time (MRT) revealed its potential to realize long-acting drug delivery. Additionally, its safety and mechanical features were satisfied. The mechanism study showed that the repulsion of the ionic drugs in HP-PSA increased drug-loading, and the relatively strong interaction could also control drug release. The incomplete H-bond transfer determined its reversibility, thus making the drug release percentage up to that of non-functional PSA. In conclusion, the high drug-loading efficiency and drug controlled-release capacity of HP-PSA, as well as its unique interaction, would contribute to the development of TDDS. Moreover, the construction of the doubly ionic H-bond would provide further inspiration for various drug delivery systems in the non-polar environment.

Abstract
Hydrogels are widely used biomaterials in the delivery of therapeutic agents, including drugs, genes, proteins, etc., as well as tissue engineering, due to obvious properties such as biocompatibility and their similarity to natural body tissues. Some of these substances have the feature of injectability, which means that the substance is injected into the desired place in the solution state and then turns into the gel, which makes it possible to administer them from a way with a minimal amount of invasion and eliminate the need for surgery to implant pre-formed materials. Gelation can be caused by a stimulus and/or spontaneously. Suppose this induces due to the effect of one or many stimuli. In that case, the material in question is called stimuli-responsive because it responds to the surrounding conditions. In this context, we introduce the different stimuli that cause gelation and investigate the different mechanisms of the transformation of the solution into the gel in them. Also, we study special structures, such as nano gels or nanocomposite gels.

Abstract
New derivatives of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs were synthesized via conjugation with L-amino acid isopropyl esters. The characteristics of the physicochemical properties of the obtained pharmaceutically active ionic liquids were determined. It has been shown how the incorporation of various L-amino acid esters as an ion pair affects the properties of the parent drug. Moreover, the antimicrobial activity of the obtained compounds was evaluated. The proposed structural modifications of commonly used drugs indicate great potential for use in topical and transdermal preparations.
