The present contribution reports on the observation of two diffusive relaxation modes in a concentrated microemulsion made of repulsive droplets. These two modes can be interpreted in the frame of Weissman's and Pusey's theoretical pioneering works. The fast mode is associated to the collective diffusion of droplets whereas the slow one corresponds to the relaxation of droplet concentration flu...

Nanosized strontium aluminate phosphors co-activated by Eu2+ and Dy3+ were prepared via a novel reverse microemulsion process. This new ynthesis technique lowered the synthesis temperature of SrAl2O4: Eu2+, Dy3+ phosphors to as low as 900 ◦C, and also reduced the particle size o the nanometer scale (around 40 nm). In the microemulsion process, the constituent cations were trapped by numerous na...

Glibenclamide is practically insoluble in water and its gastrointestinal absorption is limited by its dissolution rate. Therefore, to enhance the drug dissolution and its hypoglycemic effects, the drug was formulated in different microemulsion systems and in vitro/in vivo evaluated. Microemulsion systems were prepared by Water titration method in which surfactants and cosurfactants (S/CoS) were...

Abstract The Tin dioxide nanoparticles (SnO 2 NPs) were synthesized by modified microemulsion method and screened for antibacterial antioxidant applications. crystalline nature was explored using x-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis the calculated crystallite size is 24.68 nm. morphology examined scanning transmission electron microscopies (SEM TEM) particles based on TEM image 79.10 elemental perf...

Tebuconazole (TBZ) nanoemulsions (NEs) were formulated using a low energy method. TBZ composition directly affected the drop size and surface tension of the NE. Water fraction and the organic-to-surfactant-ratio (RO/S) were evaluated in the range of 1-90 and 1-10 wt %, respectively. The study was carried out with an organic phase (OP) consisting of an acetone/glycerol mixture containing TBZ at ...

An electrochemiluminescence (ECL) approach for methamphetamine determination was developed based on a glassy carbon electrode modified with a Ru(bpy)₃ (2+)-doped silica nanoparticles/Nafion composite film. The monodispersed nanoparticles, which were about 50 nm in size, were synthesized using the water-in-oil microemulsion method. The ECL results revealed that Ru(bpy)₃ (2+) doped in silica nano...

Stable and enhanced UV/vis photocatalytic activity via the Z-scheme mechanism of CuxO@TiO2 prepared by microemulsion method.

Sensitive DNA detection is extremely important in clinical diagnostics, gene therapy, and a variety of biomedical studies. We have developed a novel DNA bioanalysis method with a 0.8 fM (0.8 x 10-15 M) detection limit using a bioconjugated fluorescent nanoparticle-based sandwich assay. An organic dye silica nanoparticle is synthesized using a modified reverse microemulsion. The nanoparticles ar...
