Methotrexate (MTX) is a folic acid antagonist used as an effective drug to treat various kinds of cancers. However, MTX has limited use in cancer chemotherapy due its adverse effects such poor bioavailability, low specificity, resistance, and dose-dependent side effects. To improve lymphatic delivery reduce toxicity MTX, MTX-loaded nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared the present study. NPs with double emulsion solvent evaporation method using poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA). assessed for...

This paper describes a general approach for transferring clean single-layer graphene onto silicon nitride nanopore devices and the use of electron beam transmission microscope (TEM) to drill size-controlled nanopores in freely suspended graphene. Besides drilling, we also used TEM heal completely close unwanted secondary holes formed by damage during drilling process. We demonstrate assisted shrinking irregularly shaped 40-60 nm pores down 2 nm, exhibiting an exquisite control diameter. Our...

Quercetin is a flavonol believed to have beneficial effects on human health. Rutin, found in many plants, fruits and vegetables, metabolized by intestinal bacteria converted quercetin, where it absorbed through the epithelium. This study aimed isolate characterize capable of converting rutin quercetin. A bacterium that can metabolize was isolated from faecal samples identified 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The whole-cell enzymatic activities flavonoid glycoside conversion profiles were also...

Abstract Veterinary antibiotics (VAs) administered to livestock are introduced into the soil through manure and compost. These can run off surface water or leach groundwater during rainfall, causing problems such as antibiotic contamination occurrence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. In this study, an analytical method for detecting four classes VAs (penicillin, tetracyclines, macrolides, sulfonamides) in river was developed, residual agricultural environment monitored. Soil samples were...

Bi-functional nanoparticles (NPs) that consist of silica-coated magnetic cores and luminescent lanthanide (Ln) ions anchored on the silica surface via organic linker molecules are reported. Compared to individual Ln ions, hybrid NPs show a drastically enhanced photoluminescence due efficient ligand-to-metal energy transfer in Ln-loaded NPs: new bi-functional could be used variety biological applications involving separation optical detection.
