Poly(Vinylamine) Derived N-Doped C-Dots with Antimicrobial and Antibiofilm Activities
(MDPI (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute), 2021)
Nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-doped C-dots) was synthesized by using poly(vinyl amine) (PVAm) as a nitrogen source and citric acid (CA) as a carbon source via the hydrothermal method. Various weight ratios of CA and PVAm ...
Biocompatible Glycol Chitosan Microgels as Effective Drug Carriers
(MDPI, 2023)
Glycol chitosan (GC) is a chitosan (CH) derivative with improved water solubility with regards to CH which affords significant solubility advantages. In this study, microgels of GC as p(GC) were synthesized by a microemulsion ...
Physically and Chemically Crosslinked, Tannic Acid Embedded Linear PEI-Based Hydrogels and Cryogels with Natural Antibacterial and Antioxidant Properties
(MDPI, 2023)
Linear polyethyleneimine (L-PEI) was obtained from the acidic hydrolysis of poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) and employed in the synthesis of physically crosslinked L-PEI hydrogel, PC-L-PEIH, chemically crosslinked L-PEI hydrogel, ...
Poly(Glycerol) Microparticles as Drug Delivery Vehicle for Biomedical Use
(MDPI, 2023)
Glycerol (Gly) is a well-known, FDA-approved molecule posing three hydroxyl groups. Since Gly is biocompatible, here, it was aimed to prepare poly(Glycerol) (p(Gly)) particles directly for the first time for the delivery ...
Physically Crosslinked Chondroitin Sulfate (CS)-Metal Ion (M: Fe(III), Gd(III), Zn(II), and Cu(II)) Particles for Versatile Applications and Their Biosafety
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023)
Chondroitin sulfate (CS), a well-known glycosaminoglycan, was physically crosslinked with Fe(III), Gd(III), Zn(II), and Cu(II) ions to obtain CS-Fe(III), CS-Gd(III), CS-Zn(II), and CS-Cu(II) polymeric particles for ...
A Review on Phyto-Therapeutic Approaches in Alzheimer's Disease
(MDPI, 2023)
Neurodegenerative diseases occur due to progressive and sometimes irreversible loss of function and death of nerve cells. A great deal of effort is being made to understand the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases. ...
Cell Staining Microgels Derived from a Natural Phenolic Dye: Hematoxylin Has Intriguing Biomedical Potential
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2024)
Hematoxylin (HT) as a natural phenolic dye compound is generally used together with eosin (E) dye as H&E in the histological staining of tissues. Here, we report for the first time the polymeric particle preparation from ...
Synthesis and characterization of poly(Maltodextrin) microgel from maltodextrin as drug delivery system
(Elsevier B.V., 2024)
Microgels of maltodextrin (MDex) as poly(maltodextrin) (p(MDex)) were prepared by reverse-micelle crosslinking technique at various crosslinking ratios, 25, 50, and 100% based on the repeating unit of MDex using divinylsulfone ...
