In vitro anticancer activity of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) nanoparticles loaded with antitumor drug Paclitaxel

, , , , , , , , , , ,
We have produced nanoparticles loaded with antitumor drug paclitaxel. Operated nanospheres were prepared on the base of a biodegradable and biocompatible polymer of bacterial origin, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB). PHB nanoparticles with paclitaxel (230±55 nm in diameter) [...]

Simulation of Gas Flows in Micro Devices by Solving the Boltzmann Kinetic Equation

Numerical modeling of gas flows in micro devices has practical value due to the high application opportunities of such devices to the relevant industries. Gas behavior is accurately described by the Boltzmann equation of the [...]

Amorphous and semicrystalline phases in ultrathin films of poly(3-hydroxybutirate)

, , , , , , , , , , , , , ,
Poly(3-hydroxybutirate) (PHB) is a bacterial polyester, which shows a high potential as a material for biotechnology and medicine, including drug delivery and production of biodegradable implants. Being a semicrystalline polymer, PHB is able to form [...]

Template – assisted sol – gel approach to synthesize new perspective alumina based catalysts

, , , , , ,
In this work, high stable mesoporous γ-aluminas with different pore structure were synthesized. New kinds of templates were adapted to prepare alumina based catalysts with uniform and bimodal mesopore distribution with ‘small’ and ‘large’ mesopores. [...]
