Liposomes as pharmaceutical drug carriers were developed to increase antitumour efficacy and decrease drug toxicity. Doxorubicin HCl liposomal injection was the first liposomal encapsulated anticancer drug to receive clinical approval. To date, virtually all traditional anticancer drugs have been encapsulated in liposomes. The majority of clinical studies only support the concept of a decreased...

Implementation of the advanced cost-effective methodologies for product and/or process quality improvement is an effective mean to fulfil or exceeds customer’s expectations. This paper presents the analysis of a performance of automatic enamelling process for a non-normal data distribution, conducted within the six sigma project implemented in a production system. Drawing on the process analysi...

In porous material research, one main interest of nuclear magnetic resonance diffusion (NMR) experiments is the determination of the shape of pores. While it has been a longstanding question if this is in principle achievable, it has been shown recently that it is indeed possible to perform NMR-based diffusion pore imaging. In this work we present a generalization of these previous results. We ...

environmental matters are becoming a question of great importance and the increased attention to such matters has helped to make businesses, politicians and society in general consider the environment a matter of priority concern. environmental concern, taken to mean an attitude favourable to the environment, has become widespread in different environmental aspects, such as energy saving, water...

Abstract Although smartphones are equipped with accessibility functions, they still pose significant problems for visually impaired people. Sometimes these functions cannot fulfil the expectations of users. Early mobile devices had physical buttons and a keypad, users could navigate around keypad using tactile markers on buttons. However, lack makes it much more difficult to operate touchscreen...

Variety of designs for artificial magnetic materials have been proposed in the literature. In most designs such as split-ring resonators, the inductive and capacitive responses of metallic inclusions are dependent since the area and perimeter of the resonators’ geometry cannot be tuned independently. In this work, three generic resonators for the design of artificial magnetic materials are prop...
