Fullerenes as Agents for Chemotherapeutic Drug Delivery
In a world where the scale of technology is continuously shrinking, from phones to cars to solar panels, nanotechnology is seeing a rise in applications. Recently, increased use of nanotechnology in the medical industry brought fullerenes, sometimes referred to as Buckyballs, to the forefront. Fullerenes are currently being developed by engineers to encapsulate a chemotherapeutic drug and deliv...
متن کاملFree radical-mediated skeletal muscle dysfunction in inflammatory conditions.
Loss of functional capacity of skeletal muscle is a major cause of morbidity in patients with a number of acute and chronic clinical disorders, including sepsis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, heart failure, uremia, and cancer. Weakness in these patients can manifest as either severe limb muscle weakness (even to the point of virtual paralysis), respiratory muscle weakness requiring mec...

متن کاملOn the Radical Anion Spectra of Fullerenes C60 and C70
The radical anion spectra of C60 and C70 can be easily generated and studied in primary aliphatic amines. In these conditions the C60• and C70• species are accompanied by the dianions C60 and C70. In the near infrared region the electronic transitions at 1075, 1058 and 991 nm were assigned to C60• while those at about 1020-1030 nm and at 933 nm were assigned to the fullerene dianion C60 . The e...
