Poly(lactic acid)/poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)-based microparticles: an overview
BackgroundPoly(glycolic acid), poly(lactic acid) and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) were approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the 1970s as materials for the manufacturing of bioresorbable surgical sutures, but soon became ...

Protein Aggregation Capture on Microparticles Enables Multipurpose Proteomics Sample Preparation
The phenomenon of protein aggregation capture (PAC) on a wide range of different microparticles is described. Exploiting this mechanism enables generation of clean peptide mixtures from cell lines, tissues, and protein pulldowns for proteomics ...

Quantum dot on a plasma-facing microparticle surface: Thermal balance [PDF]
Semiconductor nanocrystals, quantum dots, are known to exhibit the quantum-confined Stark effect which reveals itself in the shift of their photoluminescence spectra in response to external electric field. It was, therefore, proposed to use quantum dots deposited on the microparticle surface for the optical measurement of the charge acquired by the ...

Morphology and thermal stability of silk fibroin/starch blended microparticles
In the present study biodegradable microparticles of silk fibroin (SF)/starch blends were prepared by a simple water-in-oil emulsion solvent diffusion technique. SF/starch blended solution and ethyl acetate were used as water and oil phases, respectively.

Microparticles mediate hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury and are the targets of Diannexin (ASP8597). [PDF]
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) can cause hepatic failure after liver surgery or transplantation. IRI causes oxidative stress, which injures sinusoidal endothelial cells (SECs), leading to recruitment and activation of Kupffer cells,
