Quenched growth of nanostructured lead thin films on insulating substrates [PDF]
Lead island films were obtained via vacuum vapor deposition on glass and ceramic substrates at 80 K. Electrical conductance was measured during vapor condensation and further annealing of the film up to room temperature. The resistance behavior during film formation and atomic force microscopy of annealed films were used as information sources about ...

Buccal Thin Films as Potent Permeation Enhancers for Cytisine Transbuccal Delivery [PDF]
Cytisine (CYT) is a powerful anti-smoking compound which could greatly benefit from transbuccal delivery because of both its unfavorable pharmacokinetics after oral administration and its intrinsic ability to permeate the buccal mucosa. This work aims to

Closing the air gap: the use of drones for studying wildlife ecophysiology
ABSTRACT Techniques for non‐invasive sampling of ecophysiological data in wild animals have been developed in response to challenges associated with studying captive animals or using invasive methods. Of these, drones, also known as Unoccupied Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), and their associated sensors, have emerged as a promising tool in the ecophysiology ...

Rupture dynamics of flat colloidal films [PDF]
Here, we report experimental results on the rupture of flat colloidal films over a large range of volume fractions, 0.00 $\le \phi\le$ 0.47. The films are formed using a constant fluid volume, ruptured with a needle, and recorded using a high-speed camera. We show that colloidal films rupture in a manner quantitatively similar to Newtonian fluids, even

MUCOADHESIVE BUCCAL FILMS: A NOVEL APPROACH FOR THE DELIVERY OF ANTI-HYPERTENSIVE DRUGS [PDF]
The buccal drug delivery system is a prominent route of administration for drug delivery through the buccal mucosa. It is rich in blood supply with more surface area for rapid absorption as well as provides direct entry of drugs from the site of ...

Changes in chromatin state in donors subjected to physical stress [PDF]
The purpose of the present study is to evaluate changes in chromatin of human buccal epithelium under the influence of stressing factor - dosed physical activity. Investigations were performed in a group of students (13 men) of age 19-23. Cells were stained on a slide by a 2% orcein solution in 45% acetic acid during 1 h.
