This study's aim is to characterize aerosolization properties of ciprofloxacin loaded kappa-carrageenan microspheres for pulmonary delivery. Ciprofloxacin-carrageenan by ionotropic gelation were prepared and characterized moisture content, yield, drug loading, efficiency, properties, activity stability. Characteristics showed spherical microspheres, smooth size below 2µm, content <4%, yield ...

We report a case of suspected patient-to-patient transmission of Q fever among pregnant women in a high-risk pregnancy unit, presumably via aerosolization of vaginally excreted infectious placental particles. This case questions whether current infection control guidelines are sufficient for Q fever-infected women in similar settings.

inhalation delivery of aerosolized antibacterials is preferred over conventional methods of delivery for targeting lung infection. the present study is concerned with the development and characterization of a novel, spray dried, aerosolized, chitosan polyelectrolyte complex (pec) based microparticles containing antibacterials for the treatment of lung infections.chitosan polyelectrolyte complex...

In this study, PGA-co-PDL nanoparticles (NPs) encapsulating model antigen, bovine serum albumin (BSA), were prepared via double emulsion solvent evaporation. addition, chitosan hydrochloride (CHL) was incorporated into the external phase of method, which resulted in surface adsorption onto NPs to form hybrid cationic CHL NPs. The BSA encapsulated encompassed nanocomposite microcarriers (NCMPs) ...

Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV-2) is a highly infectious disease. Dental surgeons perform various procedures that generate aerosolization, leading to the dissipation of saliva and drops blood. The indication during COVID-19 pandemic in clinical practice use mouthwashes reduce viral load SARS-CoV-2. present work brings main rinses indicated literature minimize SARS-CoV-2 practice.
