Over the past 30 years as the expense and complications involved in marketing new drug entities have increased, with concomitant recognition of the therapeutic advantages of controlled drug delivery, greater attention has been focused on development of sustained or controlled release drug delivery systems. Bilayer tablet is new era for the successful development of controlled release formulatio...

BACKGROUND This article presents a description of the Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy (IBCT), and puts forwards its contributions, its techniques and progress, the research data on its usefulness compared to traditional behavioral couple therapy, and explains basically its articulation in third-wave behavior therapies using the concepts of functionality, rule-governed/contingency-shaped b...

Electrical system capacity determination for conventional vehicles can be expensive due to repetitive empirical vehicle-level testing. Electrical system modeling and simulation have been proposed to reduce the amount of physical testing necessary for component selection [1, 2]. To add value to electrical system component selection, the electrical system simulation models must regard the electri...

Studies have shown the use of aptamers as specific recognition elements for targeted transport of chemotherapeutic drug...

Information and communication technology (ICT) tools are known to facilitate communication and processing of information and sharing of knowledge by electronic means. In Nigeria, the lack of adequate capacity on the use of ICT by health sector policymakers constitutes a major impediment to the uptake of research evidence into the policymaking process. The objective of this study was to improve ...

As the number of automobiles increases, the task of providing parking lots to accommodate more vehicles becomes very difficult and challenging. The design of parking lots needs more attention in order to have efficient and safe design. The capacity of a parking lot depends on many factors such as the parking angle. Choosing the most efficient parking angle is not an easy task since it varies wi...

Five different morphologies of MOFs were generated on the microrobot surface under solvent action, and MOF-based microrobots obtained by screening had good biocompatibility, high drug loading capacity targeted delivery capability.
