[ 1 ] - Neuronal toxicity of biopolymer-template synthesized ZnO nanoparticles

Objective(s): A simple and "green" method was developed for preparing zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) in aqueous starch solutions. Starch was used as a stabilizer to control of the mobility of zinc cations and then control growth of ZnO-NPs prepared via a sol-gel method. Because of the special structure of the starch, it permits termination of the particle growth.Materials and Methods: The d...

[ 2 ] - Brevinin-2R-linked polyethylenimine as a promising hybrid nano-gene-delivery vector

Objective(s): Polyethylenimine (PEI) is one of the most widely used polymers in gene delivery. The aim of this study was to modify PEI by replacing some of its primary amines with Brevinin 2R (BR-2R) peptide in order to increase the efficiency of gene delivery.Materials and Methods: Polyethylenimine was modified by BR-2R peptide by two d...
