(2020-01-01)
Background: Novel and new therapeutic strategies capable of enhancing the efficacy of existing antimicrobials is an attractive proposition to meet the needs of society. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the potentiating ...
Polysaccharide-based nanocarriers for ocular drug delivery
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2015-10)
Obtaining successful ocular formulations able to support an efficient drug concentration at the target tissue for an appropriate period of time is an interesting challenge for modern pharmaceutical technology. In this ...
Effects of antifungal carriers based on chitosan-coated iron oxide nanoparticles on microcosm biofilms
(2021-05-01)
Resistance of Candida species to conventional therapies has motivated the development of antifungal nanocarriers based on iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) coated with chitosan (CS). This study evaluates the effects of ...
Stimuli-responsive drug delivery nanocarriers in the treatment of breast cancer
(2020-01-01)
Stimuli-responsive drug-delivery nanocarriers (DDNs) have been increasingly reported in the literature as an alternative for breast cancer therapy. Stimuli-responsive DDNs are developed with materials that present a drastic ...
Physicochemical characterisation of fluorohectorite: Water dynamics and nanocarrier properties
(2020-10-15)
Clay minerals such as fluorohectorite (FHt) have come into prominence as drug carrier systems due to their layered structure and excellent cation exchange capabilities. Water present in the interlayers of FHt is believed ...
Functional dendritic polymer architectures as stimuli-responsive nanocarriers
(Elsevier Masson, 2010-03)
Stimuli-responsive polymer architectures are molecular systems which evolve with an external signal. The observed changes are mainly decomposition, isomerization, polymerization, activation, supramolecular aggregation, and ...
Novel Chitosan Coated Magnetic Nanocarriers for the Targeted Diclofenac Delivery
(American Scientific Publishers, 2014-05)
New magnetic devices consisting of magnetite functionalized with oleic acid and Chitosan have been synthesized and employed to the loading of Diclofenac as potential tool for treatment of targeted inflammatory diseases. ...
Nanocarriers of Miconazole or Fluconazole: Effects on Three-Species Candida Biofilms and Cytotoxic Effects In Vitro
(Mdpi, 2021-07-01)
The contribution of different Candida species in oral fungal infections has stimulated the search for more effective therapies. This study assessed the antibiofilm effects of nanocarriers of miconazole (MCZ) or fluconazole ...
Physicochemical and toxicity investigation of Chitosan-based dsRNA nanocarrier formation
(2022-08-15)
Technologies involving the use of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) to elicit RNA interference (RNAi) in pest control have emerged as an alternative to traditional pesticides. RNAi can mediate natural cell protection being a ...
