Conventional oral therapy of lymphatic filariasis drugs is only effective to kill microfilariae in the bloodstream, but is often ineffective to kill adult filarial (macrofilariae) in the complex anatomy of the lymphatic system. The encapsulation of drugs

Multimodal Magnetic Resonance and Near-Infrared-Fluorescent Imaging of Intraperitoneal Ovarian Cancer Using a Dual-Mode-Dual-Gadolinium Liposomal Contrast Agent. [PDF]
The degree of tumor removal at surgery is a major factor in predicting outcome for ovarian cancer. A single multimodality agent that can be used with magnetic resonance (MR) for staging and pre-surgical planning, and with optical imaging to aid surgical ...

Solid lipid nanoparticles from amphiphilic calixpyrroles [PDF]
Macrocyclic amphiphiles form interesting self-assembling structures, including solid lipid nanoparticles, which have potential applications in drug encapsulation. Aryl-extended calixpyrroles, which act as anion binding hosts, are expected to form solid lipid nanoparticles, even though the alkyl chains have unusual perpendicular geometry with respect to

Xylem surfactants introduce a new element to the cohesion-tension theory [PDF]
Vascular plants transport water under negative pressure without constantly creating gas bubbles that would disable their hydraulic systems. Attempts to replicate this feat in artificial systems almost invariably result in bubble formation, except under ...
