in this study silver/poly vinyl alcohol (pva) and silver/poly vinyl pyrrolidone (pvp) nanocomposites were prepared via reduction of silver salt by employing dmf (n, n`- dimethyl formamide) as a reducing agent. effects of protective agents such as pva and pvp were also described here. we show that the acidic ph of pvp solution also affects the interaction between protective agents and silver nan...

orally disintegrating tablets (odts) are capable of turning quickly into a liquid dosage form in contact with the saliva, thus possessing the advantages of both the solid dosage forms particularly stability and liquid dosage forms specially ease of swallowing and pre-gastric absorption of drug. the aim of this study was to prepare a novel matrix-type buccal fast disintegrating ibuprofen tablet ...

Arginine (Arg) is a commonly used additive to prevent protein aggregation and inactivation in denaturing solutions. This paper presents new findings on the synergistic effect on the prevention of heat-induced aggregation of lysozyme using Arg in combination with polyethylene glycol (PEG). The synergistic enhancement was observed in the presence of Arg with amphiphilic polymers, such as PEG6000,...

Hydrogels exhibiting selectivity towards lysozyme were produced by metal-ion assisted-imprinting technology. A metal-chelate monomer N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone is pre-assembled with the template molecule via assistance of Cu(II) ions and co-polymerized 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate. Lysozyme imprinted hydrogels characterized Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, swelling tests, scanning electron mi...

The magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles (MNPs) coated with poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) via covalent bonds were prepared as T2 contrast agent for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The surface of MNPs was first coated with 3(trimethoxysilyl) propyl methacrylate (silan A) by a silanization reaction to introduce reactive vinyl groups onto the surface, then poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone) was grafted onto...
