Modeling and Bias-Robust Estimation of the Acoustic Release of Chemotherapeutics from Liposomes
(American Scientific Publishers, 2019)
This paper models the acoustic drug release of chemotherapeutics from liposomes using a kinetic model that accounts for systematic biases affecting the drug delivery process. An optimal stochastic filter is then proposed ...
Factors affecting sedimentational separation of bacteria from blood
(American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE), 2019)
Rapid diagnosis of blood infections requires fast and efficient separation of bacteria from blood. We have developed spinning hollow disks that separate bacteria from blood cells via the differences in sedimentation ...
Graphene-based drug delivery systems
(Elsevier, 2019)
Drug delivery is one of the prominent biomedical applications of graphene nanomaterials in the current scenario. The rapid growth in the graphene-based drug delivery systems showed the potential of this nanomaterial in the ...
Multi-Model Investigation and Adaptive Estimation of the Acoustic Release of a Model Drug From Liposomes
(IEEE, 2019)
This paper researches a suitable mathematical model that can reliably predict the release of a model drug (namely calcein) from biologically targeted liposomal nanocarriers triggered by ultrasound. Using mathematical models, ...
Liposomes in Active, Passive and Acoustically-Triggered Drug Delivery
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2019)
Cancer has become one of the most deadly noncommunicable diseases globally. Several modalities used to treat cancer patients exist today yet many have failed to prove high efficacy with low side effects. The most common ...
Factors Affecting the Acoustic In Vitro Release of Calcein from PEGylated Liposomes
(American Scientific Publishers, 2019)
Typical methods used in cancer treatment, including chemotherapy, are debilitating because of the various adverse side effects experienced by cancer patients. The free drug injected into the patient at given doses affects ...
Ultrasonically Controlled Albumin-conjugated Liposomes for Breast Cancer Therapy
(Taylor and Francis Online, 2019)
Targeted liposomes have high potentials in the specific and effective delivery of their loaded therapeutic agents to the tumor site. Once at the tumor site, it is important that these liposomes are triggered to release ...
Formulation of heat conduction and thermal conductivity of metals
(De Gruyter, 2019)
The well-known low-pressure monatomic gas thermal conductivity expression is based on the Maxwell-Boltzmann velocity distribution and involves the mean particle velocity, the gas heat capacity at constant volume and the ...
The effect of pegylation and targeting moieties on the ultrasound-mediated drug release from liposomes
(ACS Publications, 2019)
The use of targeted liposomes encapsulating chemotherapy drugs enhances the specific targeting of cancer cells, thus, reducing the side effects of these agents and providing a more patient-friendly treatment. Targeted ...
Corrosion Behavior of Common Metals in Eutectic Ionic Liquids
(International Journal of ELECTROCHEMICAL SCIENCE, 2019)
The corrosion behavior of six choline chloride-based eutectic solvents namely, ChCl-Ur, ChCl-EG, ChCl-Gl, ChCl-MA, ChCl-Ph and ChCl-TG towards copper, mild steel and stainless steel 316 have been investigated. The effect ...
