Nanosized sustained-release pyridostigmine bromide microcapsules: process optimization and evaluation of characteristics
BACKGROUND Pyridostigmine bromide (3-[[(dimethylamino)-carbonyl]oxy]-1-methylpyridinium bromide), a reversible inhibitor of cholinesterase, is given orally in tablet form, and a treatment schedule of multiple daily doses is recommended for adult patients. Nanotechnology was used in this study to develop an alternative sustained-release delivery system for pyridostigmine, a synthetic drug with h...
متن کاملAloe vera Induced Biomimetic Assemblage of Nucleobase into Nanosized Particles
AIM Biomimetic nano-assembly formation offers a convenient and bio friendly approach to fabricate complex structures from simple components with sub-nanometer precision. Recently, biomimetic (employing microorganism/plants) synthesis of metal and inorganic materials nano-particles has emerged as a simple and viable strategy. In the present study, we have extended biological synthesis of nano-pa...
متن کاملAre nanosized or dissolved metals more toxic in the environment? A meta-analysis.
Recently, much has been written about the extreme urgency of elaborating the regulations for engineered nanomaterials. Such regulations are needed both from lawmakers, to protect people from potentially adverse effects, and from industry representatives, to prove that nanoproducts are produced carefully and with caution to avoid possible lawsuits. However, developing regulations has proven to b...
متن کاملUltrafast spectroscopy: ejecting electrons from water.
T he hydrated electron, an electron in aqueous solution, has captured the attention of scientists since it was discovered in 1962 as a product of water radiolysis 1. Many properties of the hydrated electron are consistent with the 'cavity' model, in which it resides in a non-spherical solvent cavity with an average radius of ~2.4 Å and is stabilized by hydrogen-bonding interactions with, on ave...
متن کاملEjecting phage DNA against cellular turgor pressure.
We examine in vivo ejection of noncondensed DNA from tailed bacteriophages into bacteria. The ejection is dominantly governed by the physical conditions in the bacteria. The confinement of the DNA in the virus capsid only slightly helps the ejection, becoming completely irrelevant during its last stages. A simple calculation based on the premise of condensed DNA in the cell enables us to estima...
