The SDS, PEG and CTAB roofed MgO nano powders were synthesized by co-precipitation method.  The sintered nano powders was shown Fm-3m space group with cubic phase obtained by the XRD pattern. The lattice strain was calculated to be used Williamson-Hall equations (W-H). The formation of Mg-O bond and hydroxyl radicals on the surface were confirmed by the FTIR analyses. The TEM revealed that the ...

Standardized poly(ethylene glycol)-modified (PEGylated) liposomes, which have been widely used in research as well as in pre-clinical and clinical studies, are typically constructed using PEG with a molecular weight of 2000 Da (PEG(2000)). Targeting ligands are also generally conjugated using various functionalized PEG(2000)). However, although standardized protocols have routinely used PEG(200...

Patients with adequate intestinal function who are unable to eat may benefit from enteral tube feeding. Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is preferred when prolonged treatment is envisaged. PEG feeding will reduce morbidity and mortality in many such patients by reversing malnutrition. The increasing numbers of elderly patients with chronic diseases have resulted in an increased demand ...

Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) is increasingly used in clinical and experimental medicine. However, quantification of PEG and PEGylated small molecules remains laborious and unsatisfactory. In this report, we stably expressed a functional anti-PEG antibody on the surface of BALB 3T3 cells (3T3/alphaPEG cells) to develop a competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for PEG quantification...

BACKGROUND We previously reported on the efficacy, safety, and quality of life (QoL) of long-acting somatostatin analogs (SSA) and (twice) weekly pegvisomant (PEG-V) in acromegaly and improvement after the addition of PEG-V to long-acting SSA. OBJECTIVE To assess the long-term safety in a larger group of acromegalic patients over a larger period of time: 29.2 (1.2-57.4) months (mean (range))....

Abstract In this work, two catalysts based on polyethylene glycol (PEG) containing sulfonic acid group and the −COOH of citric (CA) were synthesized. Characterization −SO 3 H functionalized PEG has been carried out using FT–IR. The acidity PEG–SO PEG–CA explored to investigate their catalytic efficiency towards eco-friendly production methyl salicylate via esterification salicylic methanol as a...

In the present work, docetaxel (DTX) and retinoic acid (RA) co-loaded micelles were developed for synergistic prostate cancer therapy. PEG-RA RA-PEG-RA synthesized subsequently used loading of DTX RA. The as prepared DTX/RA@RA-PEG-RA exhibit smaller size higher drug capacity compared to DTX/RA@PEG-RA micelles. in vitro release study shows that similar behaviours which exhibits fast RA sustained...

PURPOSE In a retrospective study, we evaluated the complications in using the motility peg system (nonsleeved and sleeved) for hydroxyapatite orbital implants in an anophthalmic socket. METHODS Drilling for motility peg placement was performed in 265 patients with hydroxyapatite implantation: nonsleeved peg system (n = 191), sleeved peg system (n = 74). A statistical analysis was performed us...
