Gamma radiation has been shown particularly useful for the functionalization of surfaces with stimuli-responsive polymers. This method involves formation active sites (free radicals) onto polymeric backbone as a result exposition to high-energy radiation, in which proper microenvironment reaction among monomer and/or polymer and takes place, thus leading propagation forms side chain grafts. The modification polymers using irradiation may be performed by following methods: direct or...

Papain is a therapeutic enzyme with restricted applications due to associated allergenic reactions. nanoparticles have shown be safe for biomedical use, although method proper drug loading and release remains developed. Thus, the objective of this work was develop assess stability papain in prototype semi-solid formulation suitable dermatological or topical administrations. 7.0 ± 0.1 nm were synthesized loaded into carboxymethylcellulose- poly(vinyl alcohol)-based gels. The formulations then...
