The demand for biomaterials with properties that provide sustained release of substances with pharmacological interest is constant. One candidate for applications in this area is the Natural Rubber Latex (NRL) extracted ...

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 ...

The absolute biovailability of a sustained release tablet developed in our laboratory was evaluated. The formulation employs acrylic resins Eudragit as the sustaining release system and tablets were obtained using conventional ...

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 ...

Background: Controlled release of medicaments from biodegradable polymers remains the most convenient way for their sustained release. Although a number of articles have been published, experimental work involving the ...

A major challenge of agriculture is to increase food production to meet the needs of the growing world population, without damaging the environment. In current agricultural practices, the control of pests is often accomplished ...

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 ...
