Chapter 11 – Polymeric micro- and nanoparticles for controlled and targeted drug delivery
(Elsevier, 2017)
Nanotechnology has great potential in the field of medicine and pharmacy because nano objects have comparable dimensions to biological entities. Polymer-based particles play an integral role as vehicles in the controlled ...
The influence of fluorine doping on the structural and electrical properties of the LiFePO4 powder
(Elsevier, 2017)
Low intrinsic electronic conductivity is the main disadvantage of LiFePO4 when used as a cathode material in lithium ion batteries. The paper offers experimental proofs of the theoretical prediction that fluorine doping ...
Multistep generalized transformation method applied to solving equations of discrete and continuous time-fractional enzyme kinetics
(Elsevier, 2017)
In this paper, Caputo based Michaelis–Menten kinetic model based on Time Scale Calculus (TSC) is proposed. The main reason for its consideration is a study of tumor cells population growth dynamics. In the particular case ...
The effect of ball milling on properties of sintered manganese-doped alumina
(Elsevier, 2019)
Alumina-based compounds have many technological applications and attract great attention even after decades of investigation, due to their good chemical, electrical, and mechanical properties. A mixture of several alumina ...
Estimation of fractal representation of wind speed fluctuation by artificial neural network with different training algorothms
(Elsevier, 2017)
Since the wind speed fluctuation could cause large instability in wind energy systems it is crucial to develop a method for precise estimation of the wind speed fluctuation. Fractal interpolation of the wind speed could ...
45S5Bioglass®-based scaffolds coated with selenium nanoparticles or with poly(lactide-co-glycolide)/selenium particles: Processing, evaluation and antibacterial activity
(Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2015)
n the bone tissue engineering field, there is a growing interest in the application of bioactive glass scaffolds (45S5Bioglass®) due to their bone bonding ability, osteoconductivity and osteoinductivity. However, such ...
A new, simple, green, and one-pot four-component synthesis of bare and poly(α,γ, L-glutamic acid)-capped silver nanoparticles
(Springer-Verlag, 2012)
A simple and green chemical method has been developed to synthesize stable bare and capped silver nanoparticles based on the reduction of silver ions by glucose and capping by poly(α,γ,L-glutamic acid) (PGA). The use of ...
Integer Codes Correcting High-Density Byte Asymmetric Errors
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2017)
In optical networks without optical amplifiers, the number of received photons never exceeds the number of sent ones. Hence, upon transmission, only asymmetric (1 → 0) errors can occur. Motivated by this fact, in this ...
Chitosan oligosaccharide lactate coated hydroxyapatite nanoparticles as a vehicle for the delivery of steroid drugs and the targeting of breast cancer cells
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018)
Low targeting efficiency and fast metabolism of antineoplastic drugs are hindrances to effective chemotherapies and there is an ongoing search for better drugs, but also better carriers. Steroid derivatives, 3β-hydroxy-1 ...
The effect of the androstane lung cancer inhibitor content on the cell-selective toxicity of hydroxyapatite-chitosan-PLGA nanocomposites
(Elsevier, 2018)
An androstane (17β-hydroxy-17α-picolyl-androst-5-en-3β-yl-acetate (derivative A)) cancer inhibitor was successfully captured in a carrier made of nano-sized hydroxyapatite (HAp) coated with chitosan-PLGA polymer blends ...
