The presented study shows the possibility of using bioaerogels, namely neat alginate, pectin, chitosan aerogels, and alginate pectin aerogels coated with chitosan, as drug delivery systems for esomeprazole. Two different techniques were used impregnation esomeprazole: Supercritical impregnation, diffusion via ethanol during sol-gel synthesis. prepared samples characterized by employing N2 adsorption-desorption analysis, TGA/DSC, FTIR. achieved loadings satisfactory all tested showed to be...
Titania nanotubes are gaining prominence in the biomedical field as implant materials due to their mechanical durability, nano-rough properties, and positive influence on cellular response. This work aimed synthesize titania titanium oxynitride (Ti–O–N) nanotubular arrays TiAl6V4 substrates using an anodic oxidation process followed by annealing air or additional nitridation NH3 atmosphere. Different layers of unique morphology structure were fabricated investigated advanced surface analysis...
Technologies involving sub- and supercritical fluids offer the possibility to obtain new products with special characteristics, which are especially needed in pharmaceutical industry. The use of or for processing can also address legal limits solvent residues restrictions on conventional solvents, while enabling processes that environmentally friendly sustainable. Extraction substances from plant materials, their situ formulation specific properties, particle formation, foaming, deposition,...
The development of drug-eluting bioactive coatings for orthopedic implants has gained increased interest in recent years with an intent to reduce postoperative complications and improve tissue regeneration at the implant interface. Due remarkable benefits natural polyphenolic components, such as antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer activity, their ubiquitous availability nature, they are promising candidates incorporation into advanced medical devices future clinical...
In this study, a novel biodegradable poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid coating containing model anti-inflammatory drug (ketoprofen) was prepared on TiAl6V4 substrate for use in orthopedic medicine by two-step process combining drop casting and supercritical CO2-assisted foaming. The first investigated surface analysis techniques using time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. combined results confirmed the loading of ketoprofen its homogeneous spatial...
