Erythrocyte membranes: Unique constituent of biological/hybri drug delivery systems
(Erythrocytes: Structure, Functions and Clinical Aspects, 2019)
For many decades, the red blood cell membranes were in focus of research interest solely as a model system for investigation into the various membrane-related phenomena, composition/organization or membrane transport ...
Bioaerosols: Methods for reducing health risks and impact on the environment
(Air Pollution: Management Strategies, Environmental Impact and Health Risks, 2016)
Bioaerosols (biological particles derived from viruses, bacteria, fungi, plants and animals) are ubiquitous in the air. This organic dust is considered to be hazardous to human health. Acute and chronic diseases are health ...
Micro and nanoscale morphology characterization of compatibilized polymer blends by microscopy
(Compatibilization of Polymer Blends: Micro and Nano Scale Phase Morphologies, Interphase Characteriz, 2019)
Polymer blends are mostly immiscible at a molecular level due to their large molecular mass. Therefore, the study of the way how two polymers are mixed together is of great interest. The properties of the polymer blend are ...
Potential of encapsulated phytochemicals in hydrogel particles
(Nanomaterials for Drug Delivery and Therapy, 2019)
In the recent past, bioactive compounds, especially naturally antioxidants, have occupied the main research focus, due to their high biological activity. Plant polyphenols are one of the most potent antioxidants. Encapsulation ...
Antimicrobial Bioactive Band-Aids with Prolonged and Controlled Action
(Medical and Healthcare Textiles, 2010)
The paper discusses the antimicrobial bioactive band-aids, a modem means of wound management and healing, which are effective against a wide spectrum of microorganisms. Ion-exchange fibres and nonwoven textile materials ...
Advances in mathematical modeling of supercritical extraction processes
(Mathematical Research Summaries, 2017)
A new trend in mathematical modeling of supercritical extraction process from plant material is presented. The most of the previously published models considered properties of the fixed bed of plant material during the ...
Health hazards of heavy metal pollution
(Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2016)
