Biocompatible Lipid Nanoparticles as Carriers to Improve Curcumin Efficacy in Ovarian Cancer Treatment
2017
Curcumin is a natural molecule with proved anticancer efficacy on several human cancer cell lines. However, its clinical application has been limited due to its poor bioavailability. Nanocarrier-based drug delivery approaches could make curcumin dispersible in aqueous media, thus overtaking the limits of its low solubility. The aim of this study was to increase the bioavailability and the antitumoral activity of curcumin, by entrapping it into nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs). For this purpose here we describe the preparation and characterization of three kinds of curcumin-loaded NLCs. The nanosystems allowed the achievement of a controlled release of curcumin, the amounts of curcumin r…

Progettare nel caleidoscopio del piccolo.La rivoluzione tecnica della multidisciplinare "nanoscala".
2018
Si può generalmente affermare che l’industria delle costruzioni costituisca un settore capace di attivare grandi attività economiche e di sperimentazione, anche se spesso esso utilizzi componenti e sistemi abbastanza obsoleti, se paragonati ad altri settori industriali quali, ad esempio, quello bellico o farmaceutico. La ricerca applicata e lo sviluppo di nuovi materiali innovativi, dalle prestazioni elevate, economicamente convenienti e sostenibili, appaiono una delle priorità delle agende scientifiche di parecchie Nazioni, con investimenti - sia nel pubblico che nel privato - di diversi milioni di dollari l’anno. La scelta di nuovi materiali dalle caratteristiche avanzate è, al giorno d’o…
NANOARCHITECTURE: A NEW CREATIVITY IN CONSTRUCTION
2015
Object of this work is the construction industry that, until the industrial revolution, has always been a major human activity and nowadays still represents a massive sector of production. Nevertheless, it often deals with coarse components and systems as, in the last century, investments in research remained lower than in other industrial sectors as army, medicine, etc.. Only recently, with the development of technology and the advances in materials science and engineering, a new generation of products, that are both of higher performance and more economically viable, is to be realizing as a competitive route to achieve a real sustainable growth and innovation. Nowadays, the market show hu…
Optical and electronic properties of the two-dimensional materials InSe, WSe2 and MoS2
2017
El camp dels materials bidimensionals ha atret recentment l’atenció de la comunitat científica. Les propietats particulars que aquests materials presenten quan el seu espessor és reduït fins l’escala nanomètrica permeten preveure el seu potencial per a aplicacions de recerca, tant fonamental com tecnològica, en una varietat de camps que inclou la catàlisi, l’emmagatzematge d’energia, la detecció, els dispositius optoelectrònics i la informació quàntica. Aquesta tesi presenta l’estudi de les propietats òptiques i electròniques de diferents materials van der Waals bidimensionals: les àmpliament estudiades formes bidimensionals dels dicalcogenurs de metals de transició MoS2 i WSe2, i les menys…
Optoelectronic devices based on caesium lead halide perovskite nanocrystals
2020
Tradicionalmente, la implementación de materiales activos en circuitos fotónicos integrados se ha basado en la utilización de semiconductores III-V y vidrios y materiales ferroeléctricos dopados con iones de tierras raras. Sin embargo, en la actualidad existe una alternativa basada en (nano) materiales sintetizados por técnicas de química coloidal. La posibilidad de procesar nanomateriales en solución permite fabricar semiconductores con propiedades ópticas (emisión, absorción, dispersión de luz) que pueden diseñarse durante la síntesis. Además, su naturaleza coloidal permite integrarlas en cualquier arquitectura óptica mediante sencillas técnicas de impresión en tinta. En este contexto, lo…
