In this work, the reinforcing effects of polystyrene microspheres in a hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) matrix was studied. The experimental design approach was used to optimize the rheological behavior of the HPAM polymer. The effects of three important parameters, including the…
The well-known synthesis of the two polymorphs of the {[Fe(Htrz)2(trz)](BF4)}n spin crossover coordination polymer is explored with new template-free methods that allow a control over the local synthetic conditions. (187 characters)
Introducing bacteriophage MS2 virus-like particles (VLPs) as gene and drug delivery tools increases the demand for optimizing their production and purification procedure. PEG precipitation method is used efficiently to purify VLPs, while the effects of pH and different electrolytes on…
Various environmentally aged plastic wastes were collected from the environment and crushed to the submicronic scale to get a mix of nanoplastics (NPs) of different natures – mostly polyolefins (PE, PP), polyesters (PET), polyvinylics (PS and PVC) and undefined shapes…
Background Exosomes are natural nanoparticles that are involved in intercellular communication via transferring molecular information between cells. Recently, exosomes have been considered for exploitation as novel drug delivery systems due to their specific properties for carrying specific molecules and surface…
