Mass-customization of oral tablets via the combination of 3D printing and injection molding.
(Elsevier, 2019-10-05)
The new frontier of medicine is the personalization of treatment to match a patient’s individual needs. Fused-filament fabrication (FFF) offers a platform for the personalization of drug dosage forms, but one of its chief ...
Structure response for cellulose-based hydrogels via characterization techniques.
(Springer, 2019)
Hydrogels are three-dimensional crosslinked polymeric networks capable of imbibing substantial amounts of water or biological fluids and are widely used in biomedical applications, especially in pharmaceutical industry as ...
Enhancement of mechanical properties and wettability of TiO2NT arrays formed in simulated body fluid‐based electrolyte.
(Wiley, 2019-09-13)
Modified titanium nanotubes (TiO2NTs) coatings are grown in simulated body fluid (SBF) from Ticp and Ti6Al4V. The addition of 1% v/v of SBF to the electrolyte neither modifies film morphology nor the structural oxide ...
Stability studies of hot-melt extruded ternary solid dispersions of poorly-water soluble Indomethacin with Poly(vinyl pyrrolidone-co-vinyl acetate) and polyethylene oxide.
(Elsevier, 2019-08)
This investigation aims to evaluate the effect of moisture and temperature on the physical
stability and dissolution behaviour of hot-melt extruded binary and plasticised ternary solid
dispersions. Poorly water-soluble ...
Development of electrospun PVA nanofibers via freeze-thawing method
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2019)
The polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogels are proven to have the benefits of improving water retention ability, cell attachment and controlled drug release in
medical device materials for pharmaceutical applications. Due to ...
Freeze-thaw electrospun PVA-Dacarbazine nanoparticles: preparation, characterization and anticancer evalution.
(Taylor & Francis Online, 2019-06-13)
Dacarbazine (DTIC) is an antitumor agent that has limited clinical applications due to its insolubility, instability and toxicity to normal cells. One possibility to achieve controlled release is PVA-based NPs. This work ...
Orthopaedic 3D printing in orthopaedic medicine.
(Springer, 2019-09-17)
Orthopaedic surgeries are commonly extremely challenging, and innovations are required to overcome a series of recognised difficulties and improve patient outcomes. Complications, in particular, the high occurrence of ...
The evaluation of the potential ecotoxicity of pyroligenous acid obtained from fast pyrolsis.
(Elsevier, 2019-09-30)
Pyroligneous acid (PA) is a by-product of bio-oil, which is obtained by pyrolysis of the wood. This product has been tested for use in several areas, such as agriculture, as a promising green herbicide; however, there are ...
Prediction of yerba mate caffeine content using near infrared spectroscopy.
(Taylor & Francis, 2019-06-10)
There is a commercial and beneficial interest of producing yerba mate leaves into different grades of caffeine. This work uses a handheld and bench near infrared spectroscopy to compare and predict, using partial least ...
Electrospun natural polysaccharide for biomedical applications.
(Elsevier, 2019-07-27)
Electrospinning is a simple and versatile technique in nanotechnology for fabricating nanofibers scaffolds for tissue regenerations, drug delivery systems, wound healing, and cancer therapy. This chapter provides a synopsis ...
