With the high demand of using nanotechnology, nanocellulose has become popular for different biomedical and anticancer applications. Cellulose, a nature gifted material most abundant organic polymer on earth, is systematically reviewed. Details mechanical chemical structure are explained, starting with preparation methods along physiochemical properties pH gradient to incorporate innovative pol...

We synthesized extremely deformable red blood cell-like microgel particles and loaded them with bovine hemoglobin (Hb) to potentiate oxygen transport. With similar shape and size as red blood cells (RBCs), the particles were fabricated using the PRINT (particle replication in nonwetting templates) technique. Low cross-linking of the hydrogel resulted in very low mesh density for these particles...

conclusions it was the first report on the blactx-m-15 gene emergence in clinical enterobacter spp. in iran. the current study demonstrated the predominant presence of the gene encoding ctx-m-15 among esbl producing enterobacter spp. commonly with a large plasmid, in the setting. background enterobacter spp. is increasingly recognized as an important nosocomial pathogen and implicated in many e...

One of the effective approaches to develop new anticancer drugs is to prepare polymeranticancer drug conjugates. The polymer-anticancer drug conjugates include polymerprotein conjugates, polymer-drug conjugates and supramolecular drug-delivery systems. In 1975, the concept of a polymer-drug conjugate was first proposed by Ringsdorf (Ringsdorf, 1975). In his model, a bioactive anticancer agent w...

The authors wish to correct Figure 1 in this paper [1] to be as follows:[...].

We completely determine fusion rules for irreducible modules of the charge conjugation orbifold.

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of the lactose-negative, rifampin-resistant, Escherichia coli strain 26R 793. This isolate has been widely used in conjugation experiments as a general recipient strain.

We prove that a trinucleotide circular code is self-complementary if and only if its two conjugated classes are complement of each other. Using only this proposition, we prove that if a circular code is self-complementary then either both its two conjugated classes are circular codes or none is a circular code.

BACKGROUND The hydrogel based system is found to be rarely reported for the delivery of hydrophobic drug due to the incompatibility of hydrophilicity of the polymer network and the hydrophobicity of drug. This problem can be solved by preparing semi-interpenetrating network of cross-linked polymer for tuning the hydrophilicity so as to entrap the hydrophobic drugs. The current study is to devel...

UNLABELLED Polymer-drug conjugates have significantly influenced polymer therapeutics over the last decade via controlled pharmacokinetics. Dapsone (4,4'-diamino diphenylsulphone) is not only widely used in the treatment of leprosy but forms an essential component in the treatment of autoimmune inflammatory diseases and malaria. However, its low bioavailability and non-specific distribution in ...
