Human Calcitonin Delivery in Rats by Iontophoresis

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 1994
Abstract In-vitro iontophoresis (0·33 mA cm−2) of calcitonin (50 μg mL−1, pH 4) was performed with the hairless rat skin model. Direct current was as potent as pulse current (2·5 kHz on/off 1/1) iontophoresis in promoting transdermal permeation of calcitonin. Increase in duration of current application from 20 min to 1 h did not increase

Delivery Properties of Human Social Networks [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE INFOCOM 2009, 2009
The recently proposed packet switched network paradigm takes advantage of human social contacts to opportunistically create data paths over time. Our goal is to examine the effect of the human contact process on data delivery. We find that the contact occurrence distribution is highly uneven: contacts between a few node-pairs occur too frequently ...

Nanotherapies for Atherosclerosis: Targeting, Catalysis, and Energy Transduction

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Atherosclerosis management is hindered by poor drug targeting and plaque heterogeneity. Nanotechnology overcomes these barriers via three core strategies: (1) target‐engineered nanocarriers that achieve lesion‐specific precision via ligand modification, biomimetic camouflage, stimuli‐responsive release, and self‐propelling nanomotors; (2) catalytic ...
