in this research, the magnetite nanoparticles (fe304) were prepared by coprecipitation of fe3+ andfe solution in alkaline medium. two kinds of surfactants, cetyl tri methyl ammonium bromide(ctab) and cetyl pyridinum chloride (cpc) were used in the synthesis. fe304 nanoparticles werecoated with human serum albumin (hsa) and bovine serum albumin (bsa). characteristics ofcoated magnetic nanopartic...

background: protein aggregation is one of the important, common and troubling problems in biotechnology, pharmaceutical industries and amyloid-related disorders. methods: in the present study, the inhibitory effects of some carbohydrates (alginate, β-cyclodextrin and trehalose) on the formation of nano-globular aggregates from normal (hsa) and glycated (ghsa) human serum albumin were studied; w...

background: progress in the field of biology and biochemistry has led to the discovery of numerous bioactive peptides and proteins in the last few decades. delivery of therapeutic proteins/peptides has received a considerable amount of attention in recent years. methods: in this study, a two-step desolvation method was used to produce biodegradable hydrophilic gelatin nanoparticles (gnp) as a d...

the aim of the present work was to prepare and characterize biopolymer nanocarriers and evaluate their suitability in possible oral delivery of insulin. the egg albumin biopolymer was used to prepare nanoparticles which were further characterized by fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (ftir), transmission electron microscopy (tem), scanning electron microscopy (sem), zeta potential, dynam...

UNLABELLED In malignant bone and soft-tissue tumors, intra-arterial chemotherapy and limb-saving surgery have become popular. Myocutaneous inflammatory change and necrosis are the major local side effects of intra-arterial chemotherapy. (99m)Tc-macroaggregated albumin (MAA) imaging with intra-arterial tracer administration was performed to evaluate drug distribution, and the ability of (99m)Tc-...

serum albumin is the most aboundant protein in blood plasma. its two major roles aremaintaining osmotic pressure and depositing and transporting compounds. in this paper,albumin-methanol solution simulation is carried out by three techniques including montecarlo (mc), molecular dynamic (md) and langevin dynamic (ld) simulations. byinvestigating energy changes by time and temperature (between 27...

background : since albumin imposes a relatively high cost to a healthcare system, drug use evaluation for this drug is much more important. this study wants to evaluate pattern of albumin use in a large university affiliated hospital in tehran, iran. methods : a concurrent, cross-sectional study was performed in “shaheed rajaei” cardiovascular, medical and research center. all inpatient adults ...

To overcome the physiological barrier in solid tumors (i.e., tumor hypertension), a large volume of material is required via an intratumoral injection. Alternatively, a method of reduction in tumor hypertension is also feasible. In this study, we focused on the physiological response after an intratumoral infusion of various therapeutic agents. Tumor interstitial fluid pressure (TIFP) was inter...
