The goal of the present investigation was to formulate and evaluate chitosan nanoparticles of temoxifen citrate for cancer therapy. Nanoparticles of TMX were prepared using chitosan using ionic gelation method. The concentration of the polymers Chitosan were selected based on the results on preliminary screening. The nanoparticles prepared were evaluated for morphology, loading efficiency, invi...

In this study, biodegradable kefiran-chitosan-nanocellulose blend films were developed and their physical, mechanical, barrier, thermal and structural properties determined. Results showed that adding nanocellulose had not any significant effect on the thickness, moisture content and water solubility. Also, water vapor permeability, tensile strength and lightness increased and the elongation at...

Root knot nematode, Meloidogyne spp. causes severe yield losses in vegetable crops. Chitosan is one of the most abundant biopolymer available worldwide next to cellulose. It known have anti-nemic, anti-fungal and anti- bacterial properties. Application chitosan induces systemic resistance tomato plants against pathogens by increasing phenolic content antioxidant enzymes viz., Polyphenol oxidase...

Intestinal organoids can be used as an ex vivo epithelial model to study different drug delivery effects on cells’ luminal surface. In this study, the impact of surface charge 5-ASA loaded PLGA nanoparticles into lumen was investigated. Alginate and chitosan were coat provide negative positive charges particles, respectively. The organoid growth viability not affected by presence either alginat...

Objective- Cutaneous wound healing is an essential physiological process consisting of the collaboration of many cell strains and their products. Initiation of new management for treatment of wound infections caused by multidrug resistant Staphylococcus aureus is required. The aim of the present study was to assess wound healing activity of Ferula assa-foetida...

Textile dyeing is a hazardous and toxic process. While traditionally it has been managed through effluent treatment, new approaches focused upon improving the process are gaining relevance. In this work, we sought to obtain, for first time, an eco-friendly chitosan-nanoparticle based textile method. To that end, yellow everzol navy blue itosperse loaded chitosan nanoparticles were produced thei...

In this study, response surface methodology (RSM) was carried out with four parameters: chitosan concentration, AgNO3 ascorbic acid concentration and time the objective to obtain minimum mean particle size of silver nanoparticles (response Y). The chitosan-silver nanoparticle composite material (CTS-AgNPs nanocomposite) obtained experimentally from optimal conditions characterized by evaluating...
