Predicting cytotoxicity of PAMAM dendrimers using molecular descriptors
The use of data mining techniques in the field of nanomedicine has been very limited. In this paper we demonstrate that data mining techniques can be used for the development of predictive models of the cytotoxicity of poly(amido amine) (PAMAM) dendrimers using their chemical and structural properties. We present predictive models developed using 103 PAMAM dendrimer cytotoxicity values that wer...
متن کاملAntibacterial activity and cytotoxicity of PEGylated poly(amidoamine) dendrimers.
We have investigated the antibacterial activity and cytotoxicity of a series of amino-terminated poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers modified with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) groups. The antibacterial activity of the PAMAM dendrimers and their derivatives against the common ocular pathogens, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus, was evaluated by their minimum inhibitory concentratio...
متن کاملNovel aldehyde-terminated dendrimers; synthesis and cytotoxicity assay.
INTRODUCTION Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers are a unique family of dendritic polymers with numerous pharmaceutical and biomedical applications. One major problem with these polymers is their cytotoxicity. The purpose of this study was to synthesize novel dendrimers with aldehyde terminal groups and compare their cytotoxicity with that of dendri¬mers containing amine-terminated groups. METH...
متن کاملSelective cytotoxicity of PAMAM G5 core–PAMAM G2.5 shell tecto-dendrimers on melanoma cells
BACKGROUND The controlled introduction of covalent linkages between dendrimer building blocks leads to polymers of higher architectural order known as tecto-dendrimers. Because of the few simple steps involved in their synthesis, tecto-dendrimers could expand the portfolio of structures beyond commercial dendrimers, due to the absence of synthetic drawbacks (large number of reaction steps, exce...
متن کاملEnumerating bacterial cells on bioadhesive coated slides.
Quantifying bacterial abundance and biomass is fundamental to many microbiological studies. Directly counting via epifluorescence microscopy has become the method of choice, especially for environmental samples, and conventional techniques require filtration of cells onto black polycarbonate membrane filters. We investigated the utility of instead capturing stained bacterial suspensions on bioa...
