hydrophobic grade fumed silicas are generally used in tabletting as lubricants. they are also found to retard the release of pharmaceutical actives. this is because of their hydrophobic nature, which gives good cohesive and adhesive properties. considering this point it was thought that they could be used as dry coating agents for solid dosages forms. the model drug selected for this work was p...

The goal of the present study is to prepare a room temperature cured hydrophobic and self-cleaning nano-coating for power line insulators. As a result, the installed insulators operating in power lines can be coated without being removed from the circuit and without the need to cut off power. For this purpose, hydrophobic silica nanoparticles were synthesized by sol-gel method using TEOS and HM...

the surface parameter of nanoparticles such as hydrophobicity and a hydrophilicity on protein structure and function is very important. in this study, conformational changes of glucose oxidase (gox) in the mercaptopurine: gnps and 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid: gnps as a hydrophobic and a hydrophilic gnps surface was investigated by various spectroscopic techniques, including: uv-vis absorption, f...

titanium dioxide (tio2)nanoparticles have been frequently employed in the environmental treatment and purification purposes as a cheap and highly efficient photocatalyst. a photocatalyst can facilitate the breakdown and removal of a variety of environmental pollutants at room temperature. tio2 photocatalyst is the best candidatebecause of its strong oxidized ability, non-toxicity and longtherma...

the purpose of this review article is to characterize all of the parameters regarding the types, polymers used, and release kinetics of matrix tablets. matrix system was the earliest oral extended release platform for medicinal use. matrix tablets are most commonly used methods to modulate the release profile of drugs. they are much desirable and preferred for such therapy because they offer be...

A three dimensional model of the basic Helix-Loop-Helix motif and its sequence specific recognition of DNA is described. The basic-helix I is modeled as a continuous ?-helix because no ?-helix breaking residue is found between the basic region and the first helix. When the basic region of the two peptide monomers are aligned in the successive major groove of the cognate DNA, the hydrophobi...

The surface parameter of nanoparticles such as hydrophobicity and a hydrophilicity on protein structure and function is very important. In this study, conformational changes of glucose oxidase (GOx) in the mercaptopurine: GNPs and 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid: GNPs as a hydrophobic and a hydrophilic GNPs surface was investigated by various spectroscopic techniques, including: UV-Vis absorption, f...
