Pharmacokinetics of Molecular Imprinted Hydrogels as Drug Delivery Vehicles

Imprinted polymers as drug delivery vehicles for anti-inflammatory drugs

The aim of this work was to investigate the possibility of employing semi-covalent molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) as a controlled release device for ibuprofen and naproxen in biological fluids, especially gastrointestinal ones, compared to non imprinted polymers (NIPs). The carboxyl groups of ibuprofen and naproxen were converted to vinyl ester group by reacting ibuprofen and vinyl aceta...

Beta-adrenoceptor antagonists affect amyloid nanostructure; amyloid hydrogels as drug delivery vehicles.

Beta-adrenocepetor antagonists (beta-blockers) alter the nanostructure of lysozyme amyloids, resulting in different drug release profiles.

Polymeric micelles as drug delivery vehicles

Nerve guidance channels as drug delivery vehicles.

Nerve guidance channels (NGCs) have been shown to facilitate regeneration after transection injury to the peripheral nerve or spinal cord. Various therapeutic molecules, including neurotrophic factors, have improved regeneration and functional recovery after injury when combined with NGCs; however, their impact has not been maximized partly due to the lack of an appropriate drug delivery system...

Density Functional Theory Calculations of Functionalized Carbon Nanotubes with Metformin as Vehicles for Drug Delivery

Drug delivery by nanomaterials is an active emergent research area and CNTs draws considerable potential application owing to its unique quasi one-dimensional structure and electronic properties. Single walled carbon nanotubes and carbon fullerenes can be used in drug delivery due to their mechanical and chemical stability. The past few years, increasing attention by several reputed groups has ...
