The use of fertilizer and water availability are essential factors limiting the agricultural production. The controlled release technology is very promising because it allows the maintenance of fertilizer concentrations ...

Alginate-based polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) and hydrogel were engineered as platforms for local bevacizumab (BVZ) therapy. This study provides deep comprehension on the microstructures of such systems, and their ...

In this study, amphiphilic polymers were investigated as biomaterials that can control dexamethasone (DXM) release. Such materials present interfacial properties in the presence of water and an oily phase that can result ...

A multifaceted hydrogel-based formulation was reported. The hydrogel was prepared by crosslinking cellulose and substituted chalcone. Moreover, the formulation was conjugated with carbon nanotubes with the aim of increasing ...

Natural rubber latex biomembranes (NRL), obtained from rubber tree Hevea brasiliensis (Willd. ex A. Juss.) Mull. Arg., have been used as sustained drug release of drugs and plant extracts with medicinal properties. The ...

Hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogels were structured in the form of porous monoliths by means of the ice-segregation-induced self-assembly (ISISA) method coupled with freeze-drying. Physical and chemical parameters were explored ...

Spray dried methotrexate (MTX) loaded chitosan microparticles were prepared using different drug/copolymer ratios (9%, 18%, 27% and 45% w/w). The physicochemical aspects were assessed in order to select particles that were ...
