polydimethylsiloxane (pdms) has been synthesized by ring-opening polymerization of octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (d4) in microemulsion with acidic catalyst. the structure and properties of microemulsion were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (tem), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir), photo correlation spectroscopy (pcs). the effect of the variation in ph value, amoun...

The paper is focused on the formation of calcium phosphate nanoparticles (CP) in polyelectrolyte-modified microemulsions, in a microemulsion template phase consisting of cyclohexane, water, anionic surfactantant and cosurfactant, in the presence of anionic and cationic polyelectrolyte. It is shown that polyelectrolyte, can be incorporated into the individual inverse microemulsion droplets. The ...

The paper is focused on the formation of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (HAp) in polyelectrolyte-modified microemulsions, in a microemulsion template phase consisting of cyclohexane, water, cationic surfactant and cosurfactant, in the presence of Na-polyacrylate (PAA) as an anionic polyelectrolyte. It is shown that PAA, can be incorporated into the individual inverse microemulsion droplets. The m...

Microemulsions are psuedohomogeneous mixtures which may show special performance towards reaction equilibria, nanoscale synthesis and reaction dynamics. Rate of reaction are most often accelerated in microemulsion media compared to that in water. This study is an effort to review some important reaction kinetics measured in reverse micro emulsion media. In the same time some pioneering research...

Microemulsion based cyclosporine has demonstrated better absorption with laser pharmacokinetic variability. For the clinical use of any new microemulsion based product, bioequivalence testing with existing formulation is necessary. Panimun Bioral (Test) and Sandimmun Neoral (Reference) were evaluated in different transplant centers using both volunteers as well as renal transplant patients. All...

Abstract Nowadays skin cancers have become a major area of concern because the continuous exposure to sun rays (UV rays). Hence, present work focused on synthesis an innovative 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) microemulsion as topical delivery system mainly used treat various forms cancer. The administration most active compounds is impaired by limited permeability due presence barriers. In this sequence,...

The phase behavior for systems containing sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl sulfosuccinate) (AOT), with the cationic hydrotrope tetraethyl ammonium chloride (TEAC), in the presence of water and heptane were studied. Formulations of microemulsion for such systems and for systems containing the so called “extended surfactant” were carried out at different salt concentrations. Anisotropy was detected using ...

Mannosylerythritol lipid-A (MEL-A) is a glycolipid biosurfactant abundantly produced from soybean oil by microorganisms at a yield of up to 100 g/L. In this study, the formation of water-in-oil (W/O) microemulsion based on the single component of MEL-A was confirmed using dynamic light scattering (DLS) and freeze fracture electron microscopy (FF-EM). DLS and FF-EM measurements revealed that the...
