The intravenous administration of poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) nanoparticles has been widely reported as a promising alternative for delivery drugs to specific cells. However, studies on their interaction with diverse blood components using different techniques are still lacking. Therefore, in the present work, PLGA was described complementary techniques. influence encapsulated compounds/functionalizing agents these interactions also reported. It is worth noting that all can be...
Schematic representation of the methodology used in this study to prepare GAL-loaded PLGA nanoparticles from nano-emulsion templating: nano-emulsification using PIC low-energy method followed by solvent evaporation.
Diffusion of mandelic acid (MA) molecules added to highly concentrated water-in-oil emulsion has been studied. Highly emulsions formed in pseudoternary water/nonionic surfactant/hydrocarbon systems (gel−emulsions) have used as the releasing material. These enclosed dialysis bags, and release MA studied a function time. Factors that can influence like stability gel−emulsion partition between internal external phases Gel−emulsions containing are less stable than those with this molecule...

Diffusion of a weak acid (mandelic acid) was studied as function pH in highly concentrated W/O emulsions (gel-emulsions). The main characteristic is their high internal phase volume. Gel-emulsions were prepared using aqueous solutions at different values. surfactant the ethoxylated alcohol type and oil, hydrocarbon. studies performed by putting contact two same composition except for diffusion molecule some experiments medium. concentration this determined distance to plane contact....
Microemulsions have been revealed as feasible templates to grow magnetic nanostructures using an electrodeposition method. Reducing agents are not required and the applied potential has used driving force of nanostructure growth. A systematic study conductive microemulsion systems allow CoNi process performed. Different surfactants organic components tested form microemulsions with a electrolytic bath aqueous component in order define showing enough conductivity perform from component. By...
Highly concentrated water-in-oil gel-emulsions have been prepared from five components: fluorocarbon, hydrocarbon, fluorinated and hydrogenated surfactants, water. Whatever the ratio of to compounds, stability these mixed emulsions allows them be used for transport drugs. A series model molecules solubilized in water chosen because modulation hydrophobicity probe molecule by varying alkyl substitute length: methyl, ethyl, propyl paraben. The release has studied with an automatic setup....
