Evaluation of poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles to improve the therapeutic efficacy of paclitaxel in breast cancer [PDF]
Introduction: Paclitaxel (PTX) is a cornerstone in the treatment of breast cancer, the most common type of cancer in women. However, this drug has serious limitations, including lack of tissue-specificity, poor water solubility, and the development of ...

A perfusion culture system for assessing bone marrow stromal cell differentiation on PLGA scaffolds for bone repair [PDF]
Biomaterials development for bone repair is currently hindered by the lack of physiologically relevant in vitro testing systems. Here we describe the novel use of a bi-directional perfusion bioreactor to support the long term culture of human bone marrow

Encapsulation of human serum albumin in submicrometer magnetic poly(lactide-co-glycolide) particles as a model system for targeted drug delivery [PDF]
Two types of iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by coprecipitation of Fe(II) and Fe(III) chlorides: water-dispersible γ-Fe2O3 and organic solvent-dispersible oleic acid-coated Fe3O4 particles.

Sustained release of sodium deoxycholate from PLGA–PEG–PLGA thermosensitive polymer [PDF]
Delivery of the drugs to the target tissue and reducing their side effects on surrounding tissues is still a significant challenge for pharmaceutical scientists. The aim of this study was to investigate the suitability of PLGA–PEG–PLGA triblock copolymer as a matrix material for a sustained-release system of sodium deoxycholate (NaDC).

Cytotoxic and mutagenic potential of juglone: a comparison of free and nano-encapsulated form
Despite its evidenced beneficial herbicidal, antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, and antioxidant effects, the application of juglone (5-hydroxy-1,4,-naphthoquinone) is limited due to its low water solubility and allelopathic and toxic effects.

Influence of electrostatic interactions in electrophoretic membrane contactors [PDF]
In electrophoretic separators, a porous membrane is used to put into contact two flowing liquids between which an electrically driven mass transfer takes place. As far as charged solutes are concerned, the mass transfer can be affected by electrostatic
