LDL particle sizes and Apo E phenotypes were determined in 212 subjects of whom 51 had angina. LDL diameter was significantly less in subjects with an epsilon2 allele (24.76+/-0.08 vs 24.94+/-0.02 nm, P=0.02), and this was evident for both E2/E3 (24.77+/-0.09 nm) and E2/E4 (24.69+/-0.08 nm) phenotypes. Although there was a negative relation between LDL diameter and plasma triglyceride, the effe...

Polystyrene (PS) particles carrying pH- and temperature-responsive poly[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate] (PDMA) hairs (PDMA-PS particles) were synthesized by dispersion polymerization. The diameter, diameter distribution, morphology, chemical composition and surface chemistry of the particles were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), elemental microanalysis, dynamic light...

this study aimed to determine the aerosolization behavior of a nanodispersion of budesonide, prepared using microfluidic reactors. the size and morphology of budesonide nanoparticles were characterized by photon correlation spectroscopy (pcs) and transmission electron microscopy (tem). processing/formulation parameters for formation of the nanoparticles were studied to determine their effects o...

BACKGROUND Aerosolized antifungal therapy is a promising route of drug delivery for pulmonary aspergillosis due to attainment of high localized concentrations. Caspofungin, a new antifungal agent with proven efficacy against invasive aspergillosis, has ideal potential for aerosolization. STUDY OBJECTIVE To examine in vitro the suitability of caspofungin for aerosol administration by character...

The effects of altering forage particle size and source of rapidly degradable carbohydrates on in situ degradation and ruminal variables were studied in four Iranian male sheep. The study was designed as a Latin square with a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement of treatments including two carbohydrate sources (pelleted beet pulp vs. maizeand barley-based concentrate) and two lucerne particle sizes (2.3...
