Superconductivity, Cryogenics, and Vacuum Technology for Linear Accelerators*
The conventional, 10 -8 ’ Torr-range, ion-pumped vacuum system of the SLAC 3.2~km linear accelerator is briefly described, along with typical performance data. Since polarized electron sources are of increasing importance to high-energy research, the necessary physical environments for such sources is given, and differential pumping and/or isolation systems capable of maintaining those conditio...
متن کاملNanotechnology: A focus on Treatment of Tuberculosis
Despite the fact that we live in an era of advanced technology and innovation, infectious diseases, like Tuberculosis (TB), continue to be one of the greatest health challenges worldwide. The main drawbacks of conventional TB treatment are the development of multiple drug resistance, resulting in high dose requirements and subsequent intolerable toxicity. Therefore there is a need of a new syst...
متن کاملTargeted therapy using nanotechnology: focus on cancer
Recent advances in nanotechnology and biotechnology have contributed to the development of engineered nanoscale materials as innovative prototypes to be used for biomedical applications and optimized therapy. Due to their unique features, including a large surface area, structural properties, and a long circulation time in blood compared with small molecules, a plethora of nanomaterials has bee...
متن کاملLiposomes and nanotechnology in drug development: focus on neurological targets
Neurological diseases represent a medical, social, and economic problem of paramount importance in developed countries. Although their etiology is generally known, developing therapeutic interventions for the central nervous system is challenging due to the impermeability of the blood-brain barrier. Thus, the fight against neurological diseases usually struggles "at the gates" of the brain. Flo...
متن کاملLiposomes and nanotechnology in drug development: focus on ocular targets
Poor drug delivery to lesions in patients' eyes is a major obstacle to the treatment of ocular diseases. The accessibility of these areas to drugs is highly restricted by the presence of barriers, including the corneal barrier, aqueous barrier, and the inner and outer blood-retinal barriers. In particular, the posterior segment is difficult to reach for drugs because of its structural peculiari...
