Monitoring Drug Release from Electrospun Fibers Using an In Situ Fiber-Optic System
Electrospun fiber mats are currently gaining attention as advanced drug delivery systems. Dissolution testing for such systems is generally performed in small vials by immersing the fiber mats in buffered solutions. Defined aliquots of dissolution medium are withdrawn at predefined time points, and the dissolved drug is quantified. However, this procedure is associated with several drawbacks. T...
متن کاملA Smart Health Monitoring System with Application to Welded Structures using Piezoceramic and Fiber Optic Transducers
Large welded structures, including ships and offshore structures, are normally in operation under cyclic fatigue loadings. These structures include many geometric as well as material discontinuities due to weld joints, and the fatigue strength at these hot spots is of critical importance for the structural performance. In the past, various Non-Destructive Evaluation (NDE) techniques have been d...
متن کاملIn situ visualization and photoablation of individual neurons using a low cost fiber optic based system.
This paper describes a low-cost system for in situ visualization and photoablation of single neurons. The system includes a fiber optics light source equipped with a filter port, a blue excitation filter and a yellow barrier filter, and a light guide which terminates with a focusing lens. This system is inexpensive, easy to use, and requires minimal maintenance. Given its price, this system is ...
متن کاملEnhanced Pipeline Monitoring with Fiber Optic Sensors
Pipelines are efficient, highly reliable and safe means of transportation. However, although the number of leaks could be reduced since the early 70’s of the last century due to improved design and maintenance procedures as well as improved materials, leaks still appear. Most of these are originated by external causes such as digging excavators or slope movements despite intensive pipeline righ...
متن کاملIn Situ Fiber-Optic Dissolution Assisted by a Mathematical Separation Model of Dynamic Three-Wavelength K-Ratio Spectrophotometry
The aim of this study was to monitor the drug release of ibuprofen sustained-release capsules in real time in situ. A mathematical separation model of dynamic three-wavelength K-ratio spectrophotometry was established to eliminate the interference of gelatin capsule shells when drug release was monitored by a fiber-optic drug dissolution in situ test system. A control experiment with high perfo...
