Ultrasound-Induced Calcein Release From eLiposomes
(Elsevier, 2012)
Ultrasound is explored as a method of inducing the release of encapsulated materials from eLiposomes, defined as liposomes containing emulsion droplets. Emulsions were formed using perfluorohexane and perfluoropentane. ...
Non-Viral Gene Transfection with Ultrasound: Is 100% Transfection Possible?
(American Scientific Publishers, 2012)
Ultrasound has been used as a modality to enhance the transfection of cells, purportedly via entry of genetic material through defects in the cell membrane produced by bubble cavitation events. A mathematical model was ...
Mapping of Embedded Functionalized Carbon Nanotubes in Poly(vinyl alcohol)/Nanotube Composite Using Electrostatic Force Microscopy
(Taylor & Francis, 2012)
In the present study, electrostatic force microscopy (EFM) was used as a nondestructive tool for mapping individual functionalized single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) incorporated in a poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/CNT ...
Phase transitions of nanoemulsions using ultrasound: Experimental observations
(Elsevier, 2012)
The ultrasound-induced transformation of perfluorocarbon liquids to gases is of interest in the area of drug and gene delivery. In this study, three independent parameters (temperature, size, and perfluorocarbon species) ...
Gas Phase Deposition of Trichloro(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyl)silane on Silicon Dioxide, by XPS
(American Vacuum Society, 2012)
Monolayers of trichloro(lH,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyl)silane, Cl3SiCH2CH2(CF2)5CF3, were deposited via chemical vapor deposition onto the native oxide layer on silicon after plasma-cleaning. The samples have high hydrophobicity, ...
