Impregnation of Ibuprofen into Polycaprolactone using supercritical carbon dioxide

Measurement and Correlation of Ibuprofen in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Using Stryjek and Vera EOS

Vetiver Oil Extraction Optimization Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Fluid

Effective terminal sterilization using supercritical carbon dioxide.

Gentle alternatives to existing sterilization methods are called for by rapid advances in biomedical technologies. Supercritical fluid technologies have found applications in a wide range of areas and have been explored for use in the inactivation of medical contaminants. In particular, supercritical CO(2) is appealing for sterilization due to the ease at which the supercritical state is attain...

Supercritical carbon dioxide: putting the fizz into biomaterials

This paper describes recent progress made in the use of high pressure or supercritical fluids to process polymers into three-dimensional tissue engineering scaffolds. Three current examples are highlighted: foaming of acrylates for use in cartilage tissue engineering; plasticization and encapsulation of bioactive species into biodegradable polyesters for bone tissue engineering; and a novel las...

Measurement and Modeling of Acridine Solubility in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

Supercritical carbon dioxide has gained increasing attention in food and pharmaceutical processing owing to the fact that it is environmentally inexpensive, not flammable, essentially non-toxic, and it has a convenient critical point. Also, it has been attracting much attention in many fields, such as extraction of sensitive materials and pharmaceutical processing and polymerization processes. ...
