Implementing metallic nanoparticles as research instruments for the transport of therapeutically active compounds remains a fundamentally vital work direction that can still potentially generate novelties in the field of drug formulation development. Gold nanoparticles (GNP) are easily tunable carriers for…
The combination of high specific surface area and high porosity content as diffusion routes for adsorption/desorption in monodispersed solid state mixed oxide ceramic nanosized hollow porous particles enabled high hydrogen storage capacity with promising platform for controlled gas molecules delivery.…
Gold nanoparticles are currently investigated as theranostics tools in cancer therapy due to their proper biocompatibility and increased efficacy related to the ease to customize the surface properties and to conjugate other molecules. Betulin, [lup-20(29)-ene-3β, 28-diol], is a pentacyclic triterpene…
Alumina with 20 wt% zirconia (stabilized with 3 mol% Y2O3) nanopowders were synthesized using sol-gel route by hydrolysis and condensation reactions of organic-inorganic precursors in the presence of different surfactants such as pluronic P123, cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) and poly…
Introduction: Mikania micrantha has been traditionally used for wound dressings and to promote the healing of sores. This is due to the content of alkaloids and terpenoids/steroids compounds. Hyperglycemia is a good medium for bacterial growth that inhibits the wound…
