  abstract  = {Hybrid courses with a focus on practice-orientated education and self-guided learning phases are on the rise on the higher education sector. Disciplines in Life Sciences implicate a high degree of practical laboratory expertise. The University of Applied Sciences (UAS) in Vienna, Austria, has thus been endeavoured offering students a high qualitative education integrating hybrid courses based on PBL principles, which consist of on-site (including the transmission of necessary background and practical laboratory training) and off-site (including self-study phases) sessions. As practical laboratory units are central in those courses, the restrictive measures, including the transition to a complete online teaching format due to the first Covid-19-pandemic lock-down, had severe effects on the implementation and the quality of the curriculum. According to surveys made specifically to address this problematic situation, it can be concluded that on-site practical units are fundamental for certain disciplines such as Life Sciences.},

  abstract  = {Inflammation processes are associated with significant decreases in tissue or lysosomal pH from 7.4 to 4, a fact that argues for the application of pH-responsive drug delivery systems. However, for their design and optimization a full understanding of the release mechanism is crucial. In this study we investigated the pH-depending drug release mechanism and the influence of silk fibroin (SF) concentration and SF degradation degree of human serum albumin (HSA)-SF nanocapsules. Sonochemically produced nanocapsules were investigated regarding particle size, colloidal stability, protein encapsulation, thermal stability and drug loading properties. Particles of the monodisperse phase showed average hydrodynamic radii between 438 and 888 nm as measured by DLS and AFM and a zeta potential of -11.12 ± 3.27 mV. Together with DSC results this indicated the successful production of stable nanocapsules. ATR-FTIR analysis demonstrated that SF had a positive effect on particle formation and stability due to induced beta-sheet formation and enhanced crosslinking. The pH-responsive release was found to depend on the SF concentration. In in-vitro release studies, HSA-SF nanocapsules composed of 50\% SF showed an increased pH-responsive release for all tested model substances (Rhodamine B, Crystal Violet and Evans Blue) and methotrexate at the lowered pH of 4.5 to pH 5.4, while HSA capsules without SF did not show any pH-responsive drug release. Mechanistic studies using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) analyses showed that increases in particle porosity and decreases in particle densities are directly linked to pH-responsive release properties. Therefore, the pH-responsive release mechanism was identified as diffusion controlled in a novel and unique approach by linking scattering results with in vitro studies. Finally, cytotoxicity studies using the human monocytic THP-1 cell line indicated non-toxic behavior of the drug loaded nanocapsules when applied in a concentration of 62.5 µg mL-1.},
