Zein based-nanoparticles loaded botanical pesticides in pest control: An enzyme stimuli-responsive approach aiming sustainable agriculture
(2021-09-05)
Nanoencapsulation of biopesticides is an important strategy to increase the efficiency of these compounds, reducing losses and adverse effects on non-target organisms. This study describes the preparation and characterisation ...
Thermo-sensitive polymers in medicine: A review
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-08)
A wide variety of smart polymer systems such as thermosensitive polymers (TSPs)have been developed and applied mimicking nature. TSPs are a class of macromolecules that exhibit bio-inspired behavior and have various ...
Sustainable and smart keratin hydrogel with pH-sensitive swelling and enhanced mechanical properties
(Elsevier Science, 2017-09)
Protein based hydrogels are a very interesting type of biomaterials with many probed strengths related to their source and chemical structure. Biocompatibility and biodegradability are accompanied by affordability when it ...
Crossing biological barriers with nanogels to improve drug delivery performance
(Elsevier Science, 2019-08)
The current limitations in the use of nanocarriers to treat constantly evolving diseases call for the design of novel and smarter drug delivery systems (DDS). Nanogels (NGs) are three-dimensional crosslinked polymers with ...
Evaluation of pH-sensitive polyurethane/2-diethylaminoethyl methacrylate hybrids potentially useful for drug delivery developments
(Editions Sante, 2015-12)
Smart sensitive polymers have been used to improve processes in drug delivery. In this article, we evaluate the behavior of polyurethane/N,N-diethylaminoethyl methacrylate hybrids (PU/DEA) as pH-responsive polymers potentially ...
