Application of Supercritical Fluid ‎Technology for Preparation of Drug Loaded ‎Solid Lipid Nanoparticles

   Small changes in pressure or temperature, close to the critical point, lead to large changes in solubility of supercritical carbon dioxide (CO2). Environmentally friendly supercritical CO2 is the most popular and inexpensive solvent which has been used for preparation of nanodrugs and nanocarriers in drug delivery system with supercritical fluid technology. Delivery...

Supercritical fluid chromatography - Application to trace analysis

Figure 3. High performance capillary SDS-PAGE separation of myoglobin and several of its fragments. Conditions: 400 V/cm, 34 AA, 25 'C, migration distance 20 cm; fused-silica capillaries; 75 Am ID, T-12.5%, c=3.3%. Buffer: 0.1 M Tris-HPO0 (pH=6.9), 0.1% SDS, 8 M urea. Supercritical fluid chromatography (SEC) is fast becoming the method of choice for many separations involving nonvolatile, react...

Supercritical Fluid Processing of Polymers

We have applied in situ FTIR, ATR-IR and photoacoustic spectroscopy to identify for the first time specific molecular interactions between CO2 and polymers that may be responsible for the plasticization of glassy polymers. The changes in IR spectra of CO2 incorporated into various polymers indicate a specific interaction between CO2 and polymer functional groups. Increased polymer segmental mob...
