Antimicrobial PAA/PAH electrospun fiber containing green synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles for wound healing
(MDPI, 2021-05-27)Wound infections are the main complication when treating skin wounds. This work reports a novel antimicrobial material using green synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) incorporated in polymeric fibers for wound ... -
Effect of thermal annealing on a bilayer polyvinyl alcohol/polyacrylic acid electrospun hydrogel nanofibres loaded with doxorubicin and clarithromycin for a synergism effect against osteosarcoma cells
(Elsevier, 2021-08-02)Polyvinyl alcohol/polyacrylic acid (PVA/PAA) bilayer hydrogel nanofibres were successfully fabricated by electrospinning and physically crosslinked via heat treatment. The effects of the thermal annealing process on the ... -
Electrospun drug-loaded and gene-loaded nanofibres: the holy grail of glioblastoma therapy?
(MDPI, 2023-06-03)To date, GBM remains highly resistant to therapies that have shown promising effects in other cancers. Therefore, the goal is to take down the shield that these tumours are using to protect themselves and proliferate ... -
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 ...
