Objective(s): The quantitative calculation of release data is more facil when mathematics come to help. mathematically modeling could aid optimizing and amending the delivery systems design. Aim of this study is to find out the isoniazid release kinetic. Methods: In this work degradable temperature sensitive dextran-hydroxy ethyl me...

Chemotherapy research highly prioritizes overcoming the multidrug resistance (MDR) in human tumors. Liposomal formulation of fluoxetine, as a fourth generation chemosensitizer, was constructed and characterized for percent entrapment, release profile, morphology, particle size, zeta potential and stability. Liposomes were prepared using different active loading techniques. The influence of diff...

results the results obtained for each drug were compared with other drugs and also with the results of the control groups. the results related to promastigote and amastigote assays showed that when the dose of both drugs increased, the parasite number is reduced in comparison with the control groups. moreover, the parasitic burden in the test cultures decreased significantly. macrophage assay r...

objective: to evaluate the efficacy of in vitro sperm activation (isa) using non-liquefied versus liquefied asthenozoospermic semen samples for improvement of sperm parameters. materials and methods: fifty six oligoasthenozoospermic (oa) patients (age range: 22-44 years; mean: 32.089 years) were enrolled in this study. oa patients were classified according to type of infertility. also, duration...

traumatic brain injury (tbi) is caused by rapid deformation of the brain, resulting in a cascade of pathological events and ultimately neurodegeneration. in vitro models of tbi can help us to describe the pathobiological mechanisms. in vitro models of brain injury support a platform for performing repeatable, well-controlled, environmentally isolated experiments. other advantages of in vitro mo...

background: the development of injectable sustained-release products are of great interest to veterinary pharmaceuticals and animal health business. recently, great attention has been paid to in situ gel-forming chitosan/beta-glycerophosphate (chitosan/β-gp) solutions due to their good biodegradability and thermosensitivity. objectives: the general aim of this study was to prepare a novel in si...

The main aim of this study was preparation and evaluation of extended - release system ofthe anxiolytic substance. Alprazolam is a short-acting benzodiazepine with general propertiessimilar to those of diazepam. Our studies focused on development of extended drug deliverysystem based on Hydroxy Propyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC 4000cps) as retard agent andPolyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP k30) as binder us...

Thymol, an important and advantageous component of many essential oils, has been applied as an antimicrobial agent in animals. To increase the duration of action of this compound in ruminants, it was decided here to prepare a controlled release carrier for thymol. Hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) and ethyl cellulose (EC) were used as the matrix polymer here. Mixtures of thymol with eight ...
