چکیده

This communication describes a single-step electrospraying technique that generates core-shell microspheres (CSMs) with encapsulated protein as the core and an amphiphilic biodegradable polymer as the shell. The protein release profiles of the electrosprayed CSMs showed steady release kinetics over 3 weeks without a significant initial burst.

In situ preparation and protein delivery of silicate-alginate composite microspheres with core-shell structure.

The efficient loading and sustained release of proteins from bioactive microspheres remain a significant challenge. In this study, we have developed bioactive microspheres which can be loaded with protein and then have a controlled rate of protein release into a surrounding medium. This was achieved by preparing a bioactive microsphere system with core-shell structure, combining a calcium silic...

Microfluidic fabrication of polymeric core-shell microspheres for controlled release applications.

We report a facile and robust microfluidic method to fabricate polymeric core-shell microspheres as delivery vehicles for biomedical applications. The characteristics of core-shell microspheres can be precisely and easily tuned by manipulating the microfluidic double emulsion templates. The addition of a shell can significantly improve the versatility as well as functionality of these microsphe...

Acetone sensing properties of hierarchical WO3 core-shell microspheres in comparison with commercial nanoparticles

In this work, hierarchical WO3 core-shell microspheres were synthesized via a facile template-free precipitation method. Gas sensing properties of the synthesized powder to acetone and some other volatile organic compounds were comparatively investigated with commercial WO3 nanoparticles. The synthesized and commercial powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscop...

Formation and characterization of polyglutamate core-shell microspheres.

The need for organ-targeted delivery of drugs and imaging agents creates an interest in biocompatible, biodegradable vesicles. We make protein microspheres using high-intensity ultrasound; these microspheres have a protein shell and a hydrophobic interior, making them ideal for delivering hydrophobic materials. We have previously shown that various proteins, e.g., bovine serum albumin (BSA), fo...
