Differences in particle deposition between the two lungs
Certain inhalational diseases show a predilection for a particular region of one or the other lung that may be related to the site of deposition of inhaled particles. We conducted inhalation studies with monodispersed aerosol particles in 22 healthy student volunteers to determine how deposition varied between the two lungs. Ventilation lung scans were

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...
