Multicore liquid perfluorocarbon-loaded multimodal nanoparticles for stable ultrasound and 19 F MRI applied to in vivo cell tracking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Ultrasound is the most commonly used clinical imaging modality. However, in applications requiring cell-labeling, the large size and short active lifetime of ultrasound contrast agents limit their longitudinal use.

Halogen-Bond Driven Self-Assembly of Perfluorocarbon Monolayers [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
The self-assembly of a single layer of organic molecules on a substrate is a powerful strategy to modify surfaces and interfacial properties. The detailed interplay of molecule-to-substrate and molecule-molecule interactions are crucial for the preparation of stable and uniform monomolecular coatings.

Comparative Evaluation of HFC‐134a Decompositions Over Metal‐Impregnated γ‐Al2O3 Catalysts (M/γ‐Al2O3) (M = Mg, Ni, Co, Zn, Cu)

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
This study examines the impact of an impregnated metalon the structural alterations of the catalyst induced by intermediatesgenerated during the HFC‐134a catalytic decomposition reaction. Through adetailed analysis of the catalyst before and after the reaction, the underlyingcause of the observed inactivity is elucidated.

Pre-clinical assessment of a water-in-fluorocarbon emulsion for the treatment of pulmonary vascular diseases

open access: yesDrug Delivery, 2019
Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) is a well-characterized vascular response to low oxygen pressures and is involved in life-threatening conditions such as high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).

In vitro model to compare the oxygen offloading behaviour of dodecafluoropentane emulsion (DDFPe)

open access: yesArtificial Cells, Nanomedicine, and Biotechnology, 2019
The aim of this paper was to create an in vitro setup to quantify the oxygen offloading capabilities of dodecafluoropentane emulsion (DDFPe) in a hypoxic environment. Oxygen offloading from DDFPe was characterized under different gaseous environments and
