Drug release from alpha,beta-poly(N-2-hydroxyethyl)-DL-aspartamide-based microparticles.

2004

Abstract Spherical pH-sensitive microparticles have been prepared by reverse phase suspension polymerization technique. Starting polymer has been α , β -poly( N -2-hydroxyethyl)- dl -aspartamide (PHEA) partially derivatized with glycidylmethacrylate (GMA). PHEA-GMA copolymer (PHG) has been crosslinked in the presence of acrylic acid (AA) or methacrylic acid (MA) at various concentration. The obtained microparticles have been characterized by FT-IR spectrophotometry, particle size distribution analysis and scanning electron microscopy. In order to have information about water affinity of the prepared samples, swelling measurements have been carried out in aqueous media which simulate some bi…

Preparation, characterization and in vitro antimicrobial activity of ampicillin-loaded polyethylcyanoacrylate nanoparticles.

1998

In this paper, the experimental conditions for preparing ampicillin-loaded polyethylcyanoacrylate (PECA) nanoparticles are described. The effects of drug concentration and surfactant type in the polymerization medium on the particle size distribution and loading capacity were studied. The results of these studies show that only the type of surfactant has an impact on the nanoparticle dimensions. The release rate of ampicillin from PECA nanoparticles at pH 7.4 (extracellular value pH) performed either with and without esterases, show that the drug release is considerably increased in the presence of these exzymes. The results of drug release study at pH 1.1 (simulated gastric juice) are very…

Nanocapsules with specific targeting and release properties using miniemulsion polymerization.

2013

The field of application for nanosized materials ranges from mere technical purposes to a growing field of applications in biomedicine. Among the different techniques and processes to produce these materials for encapsulation of reporter molecules and drugs, the miniemulsion process has been proven to be highly adaptable to these specific needs.The review covers the recent developments in the field of miniemulsion as a very powerful technique for the formation of complex carriers for the encapsulation of different kinds of reporter molecule and drugs. The use of a wide variety of polymerization techniques in the miniemulsion process and possible utilization of a wide range of monomers as re…

Preparation and evaluation of butyl acrylate-based monolithic columns for CEC using ammonium peroxodisulfate as a chemical initiator.

2008

Acrylate-ester-based monoliths for CEC using peroxodisulfate as a chemical initiator were prepared. The influence of two ternary porogenic solvents on the physical and chromatographic properties of butyl acrylate monolithic stationary phases was investigated. The composition and the ratio of porogenic solvent were adjusted to obtain highly permeable rigid monoliths with adequate column efficiency. Among the prepared butyl acrylate monoliths, those polymerized from a ternary porogenic solvent of acetonitrile/ethanol/water exhibited the most promising performance with a minimum plate height for naphthalene of 10.5 microm and a bed permeability of 7.3 x 10(-14) m(2). A comparison in terms of e…

Pulsed laser deposition of Sr2FeMoO6 thin films

2005

Abstract The effect of various deposition conditions and after-growth protocols on the magnetic and transport properties of Sr 2 FeMoO 6 films has been explored. It is found that the saturation magnetization and the magnetoresistance (MR) are dominated by the degree of cationic order, and the strain effects are clearly evidenced in a lower T C . The after-growth annealing of the films and the deposition of a buffer layer has been found to relax the film strains. This translates into a clear increase of the measured low-field magnetoresistance ratios.

Self-organization of porphyrin units induced by magnetic field during sol-gel polymerization

2007

The use of a magnetic field as a controlling factor during the hydrolysis-polycondensation of porphyrin precursors substituted by Si(OR)(3) groups, induces a self-organization of porphyrin moieties due to the stacking of these units in the hybrid material and this study also confirms the effect of the magnetic field in the nano- and micrometric organization during the kinetically controlled polycondensation process.

Polymerization and Damage of C60 Single Crystals under Low Fluency Laser Irradiation

2001

Photo-induced hardening, substructure formation and damage of C 60 single crystals under the 632.8 nm He-Ne laser irradiation in air at a power density of 1.47 mW/mm 2 was investigated by microhardness and AFM methods. Photo-induced formation of the dislocation substructure and crystallographically oriented crack patterns on the (111) face due to lattice contraction on polymerization were observed. Two phototransformed states: soft (400-450 MPa) and hard (650-1000 MPa) are found to appear under laser-irradiation. Hard fullerite is created in the subsurface layer < 1 μm at the saturation stage of phototransformation. It softens to 400-450 MPa at 340 K and reverts to non-polymerized state at …

Synthesis and catalytic performance in ethylene and 1-octene polymerization of chlorotitanium(IV) silsesquioxane complexes. Effect of increasing liga…

2016

Abstract The series of titanasilsesquioxanes that differ in a way of binding to the transition metal ( via one, two or three oxygen atoms) and type of nonreactive substituents bonded to inorganic oxygen-silicon cage ( i -Bu, Ph, c -C 6 H 11 ) were prepared by reacting of TiCl 4 with 1 eqv. of the silsesquioxane ligand. Upon treatment with an appropriate cocatalyst, all titanium precatalysts are active in ethylene and 1-octene polymerization and produce from low to high molecular weight polyethylenes and moderately ([ mmmm ] = 44–74%) isotactic poly(1-octene)s. The influence of polymerization parameters, type of cocatalyst and the silsesquioxane structure on the catalytic behavior of the tit…
