abstractin the last step of desolvation method for preparation of albumin nanoparticles, glutaraldehyde (ga) is added to stabilize the newly formed nanoparticles. due to undesirable effects of ga, the objective of this study was to evaluate alternative methods of crosslinking including ultraviolet (uv) irradiation, adding of glucose and combination of both methods. the nanoparticles were prepar...

Recently, plenty of interesting studies on improvement bioavailability for poorly soluble drugs were implemented with different approaches such as using combined biopolymers a delivery system that allowed to enhancing drug solubility and bioavailability. In this work, alginate chitosan blended together in the form polymeric particles, loaded both lovastatin ginsenoside Rb1 producing four-compon...

  In the present study, the effect of stirring speed and the type of cross linking agent on the size and formation of microencapsulated Silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) oil were investigated. The gelatin/gum Arabic was used for encapsulating and the capsules were prepared by complex coacervation. Microcapsules were analyzed by optical microscopy technique and particle size analyzer. Re...

In this study, gelatin microspheres containing lactic acid were prepared by the polymerization technique using glutaraldehyde as the cross-linking agent. Dried microspheres were loaded by immersing them in an aqueous solution of lactic acid. In order to prepare microspheres with an appropriate drug release profile, the effect of time of cross-linking and the amount of cross-linking agent on the...

background: corneal collagen cross-linking with riboflavin, also known as collagen cross-linking (cxl), involves the application of riboflavin solution to the eye that is activated by illumination with ultraviolet a (uva) light. we survey here the topographic corneal changes one year after cxl in patients with corneal keratoconus. materials and methods: this prospective randomized clinical tria...

new biodegradable network polymers containing siloxane-linked polymeric prodrugs of 5-ammino-2-hydroxybenzoic acid (5-asa) in the main chain were prepared by ter polymerization of methacrylic acid (ma), 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate (hema), and bis (trimethylsilyloxy) methylsilane (vbm) in the presence of some new cross-linking agents.the monomers and polymers were characterized by ft-ir and 1h-nm...

despite a highly beneficial role of water soluble arabinoxylans, the information about the effect of their addition on the properties of rye dough is lacking. the aim of this study was to check the influence of their modification methods and properties on water binding capacity of rye flour and suggest some possible explanations for the action of various fractions of arabinoxylans. three modifi...

Chitosan-silicate hybrids were synthesized using gamma-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPSM) as the agent for cross-linking the chitosan chains. CaCl2 was introduced in the hybrids in expectation that it would improve cell adhesion and differentiation of the hybrid surfaces. Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and 29Si CP-MAS NMR spectroscopy were used to analyze the structures of ...
