the goal of this research is to determine the feasibility of loading rifampin into mesoporous silica nanoparticles. rifampin was selected as a model lipophilic molecule since it is a well-documented and much used anti tuberculosis drug. the mesoporous silica nanoparticles were prepared by using tetraethyl ortho silicate and cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (as surfactant); the prepared nanoparti...

new biodegradable network polymers containing siloxane-linked polymeric prodrugs of 5-ammino-2-hydroxybenzoic acid (5-asa) in the main chain were prepared by ter polymerization of methacrylic acid (ma), 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate (hema), and bis (trimethylsilyloxy) methylsilane (vbm) in the presence of some new cross-linking agents.the monomers and polymers were characterized by ft-ir and 1h-nm...

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 (

objective(s): chitosan, a biodegradable and cationic polysaccharide with increasing applications in biomedicine, possesses many advantages including mucoadhesivity, biocompatibility, and low-immunogenicity. the aim of this study, was investigating the influence of ph, ratio of azelaic acid/chitosan and molecular weight of chitosan on loading efficiency of azelaic acid in chitosan particles. mat...

Glaucoma is a common progressive eye disorder and the treatment strategies will benefit from nanoparticulate delivery systems with high drug loading and sustained delivery of intraocular pressure lowering agents. Niosomes have been reported as a novel approach to improve drug low corneal penetration and bioavailability characteristics. Along with this, poor entrapment efficiency of hydrophilic ...

In the present study, a nanoporous metal organic framework (MOF) based on iron metal and amino terephthalate ligand MIL-101-NH2-Fe has been used as a carrier for loading and in vitro release of 5-flurouracil (5-FU) anticancer drug. The 5-FU drug loaded MOF was 13 wt % by using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The 5-FU release was monitored under physiological condition at 37°C, pH 7.4 in simul...

objective(s) the aim of this study was to formulate and evaluate microencapsulated controlled release preparations of theophylline using ethylcellulose as the retardant material with high entrapment efficiency. materials and methods microspheres were prepared by water-in-oil-in-oil (w/o1/o2) emulsion-solvent diffusion (esd). a mixed solvent system consisting of acetonitrile and dichloromethane ...
