Functionalized Metal Organic Frameworks For Chemotherapy Drug Delivery
(2020-11)
Cancer is the leading cause of death worldwide, and can be treated by various methods or sometimes a combination of different treatments. Chemotherapy is one of the conventional methods of treatment. Although it is effective ...
Use of Ultrasound and Ionic Liquids to Enhance the Extractive Desulfurization of Oils
(2016-12)
Desulfurization of diesel oil has been a widely investigated process, due to the detrimental impact on health and the environment caused by sulfur dioxide emissions resulting from the combustion of diesel oil. This has ...
The Use of Transferrin and Ultrasound in Cancer Treatment
(2019-05)
Site-specific drug delivery represents an attractive approach in cancer treatment to reduce the undesirable side-effects of anticancer therapeutics and increase the accumulation of drugs at tumor sites. Surface modification ...
In Vitro Cell Work of Two Types of Targeted Nanoparticles with Ultrasound Triggering
(2020-11)
Targeted liposomes have shown promising potential as effective chemotherapeutics delivery vehicles in Smart Drug Delivery Systems (SDDSs). Upon accumulation and internalization at the tumor site, the liposomes need to be ...
Ultrasound Triggered Release of Estrone- Targeted Liposomes
(2017-05)
