A polyphenolic biomacromolecule prepared from a flavonoid: Catechin as degradable microparticles
(Wiley, 2021)
Catechin (CAT) was crosslinked with trimethylolpropane triglycidyl ether(TMPTGE) to obtain degradable poly(CAT) particles in a single step. Sphericalp(CAT) particles with tens of micrometer size range and an isoelectronic ...
Versatile Fluorescent Carbon Dots from Citric Acid and Cysteine with Antimicrobial, Anti‑biofilm, Antioxidant, and AChE Enzyme Inhibition Capabilities
(Springer, 2021)
Nanostructured fuorescent particles derived from natural molecules were prepared by a green synthesis technique employing a microwave method. The precursors citric acid (CA) and cysteine (Cys) were used in the preparation ...
Chemically Cross-Linked Poly(β-Cyclodextrin) Particles as Promising Drug Delivery Materials
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2021)
One-pot synthesis of poly(β-cyclodextrin) (p(β-CD)) micro-/nanoparticles was accomplished using two different cross-linkers, divinyl sulfone (DVS) as p(β-CD)-1 and trimethylolpropane glycidyl ether (TMPGDE) as p(β-CD)-2. ...
HA particles as resourceful cancer, steroidal and antibiotic drug delivery device with sustainable and multiple drug release capability
(Taylor & Francis Group, LLC, 2021)
Hyaluronic acid (HA) particles with divinyl sulfone (DVS) crosslinking at 10% mole ratio (HA macromolecule repeating units) were prepared and demonstrated as versatile drug carriers with sustainable and long-term release ...
Versatile poly(maltose) micro/nanoparticles with tunable surface functionality as a biomaterial
(John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2021)
Maltose, a natural disaccharide, was crosslinked with divinyl sulfone to prepare poly(maltose) (p(MAL)) micro/nanoparticles via one step microemulsion system with ≥90% ± 5% yield in a size rage of 0.5–100 μm for the first ...
Degradable poly(catechin) nanoparticles as a versatile therapeutic agent
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2021)
Poly(catechin) (p(CAT)) nanoparticles (NPs), 173 +/- 4 nm was prepared as a therapeutic agent with hydrolytic degradability affording sustainable CAT release over 20 d at carcinogenic conditions, pH 5.5 and 37.5 degrees ...
Carbon Tetrafluoride, Oxygen, and Air RF Plasma Modified Low-Density Polyethylene and Polydimethylsiloxane
(Springer, 2023)
Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and polydimethylsiloxane (silicone or PDMS) were exposed to low-pressure air, oxygen (O2), and carbon tetrafluoride (CF4) plasma to modify their surfaces. Plasma power and irradiation time ...
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 ...
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 ...
Low-pressure plasma treated polycarbonate and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) sheets with different surface patterns to change their surface properties
(Elsevier B.V., 2023)
Low-pressure plasmas of carbon tetrafluoride (CF4), oxygen (O2), and air were used to treat the surfaces of polycarbonate (PC) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) to achieve a variety of surface attributes, such as ...
