having conducted fundamental projects, scientists have expressed their hope to develop the use of carbon nanotubes to release drugs. it is important to release drugs in cell without damaging healthy cells of tissues under study. researchers have shown the fact that nanotubes can perform this function perfectly. to this objective, in the present study the interactions between four anti-cancer dr...

interpenetrating polymer networks (ipn) were formed involving hydrophobic polybutyl acrylate (pba) and hydrophilic poly hydroxyethyl acrylate (phea). pba prepolymer was first formed in presence of ferric oxide nanoparticles (

stabilities and quantum molecular descriptors of cyclophoshphamide (an anticancer drug)-functionalized (8,0) zigzag and (4,4) armchair carbon nanotubes (cnts) complexes in water were studied using density functional theory (dft) calculations. two attachments namely the sidewall- and tip-attachments are considered for the model constructions. calculations of the total electronic energy (et) and ...

indications for linezolid use are nosocomial or community-acquired pneumonia and skin infections or soft tissue infection caused by gram-positive microorganisms, but new recommendations may emerge. it is important to balance benefits with risks because severe adverse events have been described in patients taking linezolid treatment. accordingly, we evaluated the suitability of linezolid prescri...
