Oxidation–Responsive Emulsions Stabilized with Poly(Vinyl Pyrrolidone-co-allyl Phenyl Sulfide)

Polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) in cataract surgery.

Early reformation of the anterior chamber after intraocular surgery is of paramount importance, its absence or delay leading to peripheral anterior synechiae and aphakic glaucoma (Troncoso, 1933; Kronfeld and Grossman, 1941; McLean, I94I; Meyer and Sternberg, 1950). Selinger (1937) injected air after cataract operations to restore the normal curvature of the cornea. He concluded that air preven...

Effectiveness of Magnetite Nanoparticles stabilized by 3-hydroxypyridine Derivative and Polyvinyl Pyrrolidone in Experimental Therapy of Acute blood Loss

One of the preconditions of biomedical use of iron oxide nanoparticles including magnetite is their stabilization in liquid medium, wherein the covering substances largely determine pharmacological activity and toxicity of such nanoparticles. we obtained nanofluid that contains magnetite nanoparticles stabilized with 2-ethyl-6-methyl-3-hydroxypyridine succinate (Mexidol) and polyvinyl pyrrolido...

Protein-Stabilized Emulsions and Whipped Emulsions: Aggregation and Rheological Aspects

By exploiting the combined gelling and stabilizing properties of the milk protein casein, creamy foam structures can be made by whipping air into a matrix of flocculated protein-coated emulsion droplets. Acidified sodium caseinate-stabilized emulsions based on liquid triglyceride oil give rise to elastic foams of low rigidity and high apparent fracture strain. Replacing all-liquid droplets with...

Nanocellulose-stabilized Pickering emulsions and their applications

Pickering emulsion, which is an emulsion stabilized by solid particles, offers a wide range of potential applications because it generally provides a more stable system than surfactant-stabilized emulsion. Among various solid stabilizers, nanocellulose may open up new opportunities for future Pickering emulsions owing to its unique nanosizes, amphiphilicity, and other favorable properties (e.g....
