Objective The aim of this research was to investigate the use of Stichopus herrmanni nanoparticle gel on the ulcer healing process by observing blood vessels, fibroblasts, and Collagen type-I (COL-1) expression on the 4 and 7th days after trauma. Materials and…
Context: Oleanolic and ursolic acids are antitumor and antibacterial agents which are extensively studied. Their major disadvantage is the poor water solubility which limits their applications. Objectives: Oleanolic and ursolic acid were encapsulated into polyurethane nanostructures that act as drug…
One of the main challenges in wound healing is the wound infection due to various causes, of which moisture is the most important reason. Owing to this fact, wound dressings that can collect wound moisture in addition to showing antibacterial…
Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) have attracted considerable interest owing to their physicochemical properties and vigorous biological activity. In this research, ZnO-NPs were synthesized using aqueous extract of Sargassum vulgare (SVE) as a reducing and capping agent. Morphological and physical features…
When exposed to radiation, photo-responsive block copolymer nanoparticles disassemble to liberate a possible carried guest. However, the particle disruption is rarely accompanied by a polymer chain disintegration into molecular fragments, that would facilitate clearance from the body. (249 characters)
