Self-Assembled Nanospheres for Encapsulation and Aerosolization of Rifampicin.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Rifampicin (RIF) is a benchmark drug for treatment of tuberculosis, but poor bioavailability, prolonged treatment, and pill burden have been linked to therapeutic failure and the development of multidrug resistant strains. To overcome these limitations, this study investigated a method of rifampicin nanoencapsulation and aerosol delivery using a commercial, hand-held nebulizer modified with a nitrogen stream.

In this research, self-assembled copper sulfide nanospheres were synthesized by the solvothermal method and the effects of reaction parameters, including reaction time and reaction temperature on the morphology and phase evolution of copper sulfide nanostructures were investigated. For the identification of copper sulfide nanostructures, X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), f...
متن کاملAcid-responsive nanospheres from an asparagine-derived amphiphile.
We describe the synthesis and self-assembly of an asparagine-derived amphiphile. The self-assembled systems formulated with the inclusion of cholesterol (0-50 mol%) show encapsulation for a hydrophobic model drug and rapidly disintegrate in response to mild acidic conditions.

Objective(s) Several antigens, adjuvants and delivery systems have been evaluated for induction of protective immune responses against Leishmaniasis, but most of them have been inefficient. In this study, PLGA nanospheres as antigen delivery system CpG-ODN as an immunoadjuvant for increasing the immune responses against Autoclaved Leishmania major (ALM) were prepared and characterized. Materi...

متن کاملNasal Immunization by (PLGA) Nanospheres Encapsulated with Tetanus Toxoid and (CpG-ODN)
In induction of systemic and mucosal immunity, particulate antigens are more effective than soluble antigens possibly because they are more efficiently endocytosed by mucosal-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) M cells. In this study, we determined the systemic and mucosal immune responses in rabbits following intranasal immunization of tetanus toxoid TT and CpG-ODN encapsulated within PLGA nanos...
