objective(s): in this study, drug loaded electrospun nanofibrous mats were prepared and drug release and mechanism from prepared nanofibers were investigated.  materials and methods: paclitaxel (ptx) loaded polylactic acid (pla) nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning. the effects of process parameters, such as ptx concentration, tip to collector distance, voltage, temperature and flow rate...

objective: in dental treatments, use of carriers for targeted antibiotic delivery would be optimal to efficiently decrease microbial count. in this study, gentamicin was loaded into polylactic co-glycolic acid (plga) microspheres and its release pattern was evaluated for 20 days.   methods: in this experimental study, plga microspheres loaded with gentamycin were produced by the w/o/w method. t...

Biobased plastics are often seen to be an environmentally friendly alternative conventional plastics, with their share, though being less now, is gradually increasing. This necessitates that the waste management of these possibly eco-friendly materials also at par growth. Near-infrared (NIR) sorting effective technology and already widely used for plastics. Thus, it would imperative analyse whe...
