we are concerned with the development of a k−step method for the numerical solution of fuzzy initial value problems. convergence and stability of the method are also proved in detail. moreover, a specific method of order 4 is found. the numerical results show that the proposed fourth order method is efficient for solving fuzzy differential equations.

Purely organic nanoparticles based on a BODIPY dimer, BDY-NPs, have been prepared for the first time using a nanoprecipitation procedure. The fluorescent nanoparticles have high physical homogeneity, good stability in water, and low cytotoxicity, which are suitable for cell imaging.

the charge transfer (ct) complex formation of benzonitrile as acceptor with the aromatic donors o-, m-, p-xylene and ethylbenzene in ccl4 solutions is investigated by chemical shift measurements relative to an external reference. the equilibrium parameters, q and dad of their weak molecular complexes, as found numerically modified cresswel- allred (c-a) method, is compared with graphically scat...

the burgers’ equation is a simplified form of the navier-stokes equations that very well represents their non-linear features. in this paper, numerical methods of the adomian decomposition and the modified crank – nicholson, used for solving the one-dimensional burgers’ equation, have been compared. these numerical methods have also been compared with the analytical method. in contrast to...

Doxorubicin-loaded nanogels with multiresponsive properties are prepared using hyperbranched polyglycerol as a biocompatible scaffold. The nanogels are synthesized in a single step combining free-radical polymerization and a mild nanoprecipitation technique. The nanogels respond to different biological stimuli such as low pH and reductive environments, resulting in a more efficient cell prolife...

A system of novel nanoparticles of star-shaped cholic acid-core polylactide-d-α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (CA-PLA-TPGS) block copolymer was developed for paclitaxel delivery for breast cancer treatment, which demonstrated superior in vitro and in vivo performance in comparison with paclitaxel-loaded poly(d,l-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) nanoparticles and linear PLA-TPGS nano...

Current approaches to encapsulate and deliver therapeutic compounds have focused on developing liposomal and biodegradable polymeric nanoparticles (NPs), resulting in clinically approved therapeutics such as Doxil/Caelyx and Genexol-PM, respectively. Our group recently reported the development of biodegradable core-shell NP systems that combined the beneficial properties of liposomal and polyme...

This paper reports the preparation and characterization of thermosensitive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM)/magnetite nanoparticles in various conditions. The nanoprecipitation conditions address impact temperature on PNIPAM/magnetite nanoparticle features due to character PNIPAM. Hybrid with desired (size, size distribution, agglomeration, release profile) are prepared by non-solvent (acet...
