Zero-order controlled release of ciprofloxacin-HCl from a reservoir-based, bioresorbable and elastomeric device.
A reservoir-based device constructed of a completely biodegradable elastomer can enable several new implantation and insertion options for localized drug therapy, particularly in the case of urological therapies. We performed an in vitro performance evaluation of an implantable, bio-resorbable device that supplies short-term controlled release of ciprofloxacin-HCl (CIP). The proposed device fun...
متن کاملControlled release of nanoparticles and macromolecules from responsive microgel capsules.
Using a mesoscale computational model, we probe the release of nanoparticles and linear macromolecules from hollow microgel capsules that swell and deswell in response to external stimuli. Our simulations reveal that responsive microcapsules can be effectively utilized for steady and pulsatile release of encapsulated solutes. Swollen gel capsules allow steady, diffusive release of nanoparticles...
متن کاملSustained release of proteins from a modified vaginal ring device.
A new vaginal ring technology, the insert vaginal ring (InVR), is presented. The InVR overcomes the current shortfall of conventional vaginal rings (VRs) that are generally ineffectual for the delivery of hydrophilic and/or macromolecular actives, including peptides, proteins and antibodies, due to their poor permeation characteristics in the hydrophobic polymeric elastomers from which VRs are ...
متن کاملLipase-modified pH-responsive microgel-based optical device for triglyceride sensing.
Lipase-modified pH-responsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-based microgels were synthesized. An optical device was subsequently fabricated by sandwiching the enzyme loaded responsive microgels between two thin Au layers, and their response to triolein, a model triglyceride, was investigated. The device's response depended on the triglyceride concentration, demonstrating its potential application...
متن کاملSwelling Kinetics of a Microgel Shell
Tanaka’s approach to swelling kinetics of a solid gel sphere is extended to a sphericalmicrogel shell. The boundary condition at the inner surface is obtained from the minimization of shear elastic energy. Temporal evolution of a shell is represented in a form of expansion over eigenfunctions of the corresponding diffusion equation. The swelling of Tanaka’s solid spherical gel is recovered as a...
