Heart disease is a common medical condition that affects hundreds of thousands of people each year in the United States alone. In response, scientists have spent decades researching technologies to treat this disease. Coronary stents are a technology developed to keep collapsing heart vessels open to promote proper blood flow and prevent further cardiovascular complications. Since the 1970s, th...

Thiazoles derivatives are consisted in chemical compounds such as antimicrobial and anticancer medicine. Since polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) polymeric nanoparticles has been conversed about nanomedicine applications and particularly as drug delivery systems. Because of molecular self-assemblies and biodegradability of PLGA polymer, it can be used to carry anti-cancer and antimicrobial drug...

Biological materials. recently. are the building blocks of several self-assembling peptide and protein systems.The main challenge In molecular self-assembly is to design molecular building blocks that can undergospontaneous organization. These cyche peptides were produced by an alternating fl'ell number of D- and Laminoacids.which interact through non-covalent interactions co an array of selfas...

Oligomer Coupling Agents in Phosphate Based Glass Fibre/PLA Composites P Haque, AJ Parsons, I Ahmed, DJ Irvine, GS Walker, CD Rudd (Univ of Nottingham) Polylactic acid oligomers as coupling agents have showed potentially higher interfacial shear strength in phosphate based glass fibre/ PLA composites. To influence bonding on the glass fibre surface, the short chain PLA with different end groups...
