A pyridinium-pended conjugated polyelectrolyte with photo-induced amine doping behaviour was designed for multiple applications.

Luminex Assay Design and Methods. Luminex assays use antibody-conjugated bead sets to detect analytes in a multiplexed sandwich immunoassay format. Each bead in the set is identified by a unique content of two addressing dyes, with a third dye used to read out binding of the analyte via a biotin-conjugated antibody and streptavidin-conjugated second step detector. Data is acquired on a dedicate...

In addition to increasing the efficacy of various drugs, Nanoparticles reduce their side effects. In this study, different nanoparticle formulations of Doxorubicin anticancer drugs were prepared. The efficacy of the formulations produced in the cell culture medium was studied compared with the free drug. Reverse phase evaporation was used to form the liposome containing do...

OBJECTIVE To determine the effects of 2 conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomers (cis-9, trans-11 and trans-10, cis-12) on synthesis of prostaglandin (PG) E(2) and F(2α) and expression of prostaglandin H synthase-2 (PGHS-2) of adult and fetal bovine endometrial epithelial cells in vitro. SAMPLE Primary cultures of endometrial epithelial cells obtained from 4 adult cows and 4 fetal bovine carcas...

the research in the short-chain organic -conjugated molecules has become one of the most interesting topics in the fields of chemistry. these compounds have become the most promising materials for the optoelectronic device technology. the use of low band gap materials is a viable method for better harvesting of the solar spectrum and increasing its efficiency. the control of the band gap of th...

Background Accumulating evidence on the causal role of spinal cord microglia activation in the development of neuropathic pain after peripheral nerve injury suggests that microglial activation inhibitors might be useful analgesics for neuropathic pain. Studies also have shown that polyamidoamine dendrimer may function as a drug delivery vehicle to microglia in the central nervous system. In thi...

The aim of this study was to enhance the effectiveness of photo thermal therapy (PTT) in the targeting of superficial bladder cancers using a green light laser in conjunction with gold nanoparticles (GNPs) conjugated to antibody fragments (anti-EGFR). GNPs conjugated with anti-EGFR-antibody fragments were used as probes in the targeting of tumor cells and then exposed to a green laser (532nm), ...
