Vesicular systems for delivering conventional small organic molecules and larger macromolecules to and through human skin [PDF]
The history of using vesicular systems for drug delivery to and through skin started nearly three decades ago with a study utilizing phospholipid liposomes to improve skin deposition and reduce systemic effects of triamcinolone acetonide.

Abstract 5-aminosalicylic acid and salicylic acid have been used to form redox active films onto glassy carbon electrodes through recurrent cyclic voltammetry. The variation of the formal potential of the film obtained from 5-aminosalicylic acid as a function of pH is linear over the entire pH range studied (pH 2 to 10) with a slope of −80 mV per pH ...

Lipid vesicles are supramolecular structures of great interest for industrial and research applications. They can be used simply to compartmentalize solutions and pack active molecules in femtoliter-scale volumes or as highly sophisticated drug delivery vehicles and dynamic cell-size bioreactors.

On Top of the Alveolar Epithelium: Surfactant and the Glycocalyx [PDF]
Gas exchange in the lung takes place via the air-blood barrier in the septal walls of alveoli. The tissue elements that oxygen molecules have to cross are the alveolar epithelium, the interstitium and the capillary endothelium.

Brownian dynamics of elongated particles in a quasi-2D isotropic liquid
We demonstrate experimentally that the long-range hydrodynamic interactions in an incompressible quasi 2D isotropic fluid result in an anisotropic viscous drag acting on elongated particles.

Development of a combined surface plasmon resonance/surface acoustic wave device for the characterization of biomolecules [PDF]
It is known that acoustic sensor devices, if operated in liquid phase, are sensitive not just to the mass of the analyte but also to various other parameters, such as size, shape, charge and elastic constants of the analyte as well as bound and viscously
