The synthesis of graft copolymer (partially carboxymethylated guar gum-g-N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) is carried out in nitrogen atmosphere using potassium peroxymonosulphate and glycolic acid as redox system. The effect of reaction variables including the concentration of N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (8×10−2 −2 −3 −3 −3 −3 vailable online 28 October 2010

This paper presents the impedance study of low acyl gellan gum/poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) blend as a host matrix for ion conduction. Low salt content of lithium perchlorate was added into the blend polymer host and the membranes were prepared by the means of solution casting method. The temperature-conductivity of the investigated samples follows the Vogel-Tamann-Fulcher rule. The occurrence of el...

Recent research has identified genipin as a promising natural crosslinking agent for biocompatible hydrogels as genipin is significantly less cytotoxic than current synthetic crosslinking agents, such as glutaraldehyde. Conveniently, fluorophores can be produced when genipin crosslinks. In this study, fluorescence intensity measurements of genipin crosslinked chitosan-poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) hy...

we consider of the antimicrobial activity on the ag nanoparticles(ag nps) aqueous solutions, which was prepared using a stabilizer, such as poly(n vinyl 2 pyrrolidone pvp , for staphylococcus aureus) s aureus and escherichia coli e coli by measuring the minimum inhibitory concentration mic . antimicrobial effect of ag nps for s aureus and e coli was investigated using disk diffusion method also...

Poly(vinyl pyrrolidone)-capped multiple twinned gold (Au) particles with decahedral shape have been synthesized by a simple and convenient solvothermal wet chemical method. In the process, hydrogen tetrachloroauric acid (HAuCl(4).3H(2)O) was reduced by ethylene glycol (EG) to form the multiple twinned Au nanocrystals in the presence of poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) molecules at 200 degrees C un...

Over the past several decades, formulation of novel nanofiber-based drug-delivery systems has been a frequent focus scientists around world. Aiming to introduce nanofibrous transdermal system treat pain, nanofiber mats buprenorphine-loaded poly (vinyl pyrrolidone) (Bup/PVP) and poly(vinyl alcohol)/poly(vinyl (Bup/PVP/PVA) were successfully fabricated by electrospinning process for drug delivery...
