Anionic quantum dots (QDs) are spontaneously enfolded by coordination networks self-assembled from nucleotide monophosphates and lanthanide ions in water; luminescent core-shell nanoparticles are specifically obtained for anionic QDs, which allows their separation from amine-modified QDs.

The increasing death rate caused by drug overdose points to an urgent demand for the development of novel detoxification therapy. In an attempt to detoxify tricyclic antidepressant overdose, we prepared a lipid nanoemulsion, called squarticles, as the nanoantidote. Squalene was the major lipid matrix of the squarticles. Here, we present the animal study to investigate both the pharmacokinetic a...

As the first step of a research program aimed at developing a bispecific monoclonal antibody system for the delivery of boron-rich molecules to tumor cells for boron neutron capture therapy, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were produced against an anionic nido-carborane derivative, 4-[7,8-dicarbadodecahydroundecaborat(-1)-7-yl]butanoic acid. Two IgG subclass mAbs, designated HAW101 and HAW102, wer...

To prepare long-circulating liposomes, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-lipid is usually mixed with other lipid components before vesicle formation. PEG-lipids can also be postinserted in the outer layer of liposomes after the preparation. In this study, PEG-distearoylphosphatidylethanolamine was incorporated by postinsertion technique into liposome-encapsulated hemoglobin (LEH) carrying neutral or ...

The cathelicidin derived bovine antimicrobial peptide BMAP27 exhibits an effective microbicidal activity and moderate cytotoxicity towards erythrocytes. Irrespective of its therapeutic and multidimensional potentiality, the structural studies are still elusive. Moreover, the mechanism of BMAP27 mediated pore formation in heterogeneous lipid membrane systems is poorly explored. Here, we studied ...

composite electrodeposition is a low-cost and low-temperature method, which is used to make metal matrix composite coatings. in this study the surfactant of anionic(sds) and cationic (ctab) is used as additive in composite coating of ni/tin. the results showed that the anionic surfactant caused more particles in the composite coatings. increasing sds concentration to the optimal value leads to ...

Anionic surfactants are commonly determined with the use of the methylene blue active substances (MBAS) standard method, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Therefore, new methods for determination of anionic surfactants are needed. In this study, the standard MBAS method for determination of anionic surfactants was modified and adjusted to work in a continuous flow system combined wit...

The anionic malonate-derived N-heterocyclic carbenes (maloNHCs) react cleanly and rapidly with copper chloride to generate the anionic complexes of type [(maloNHC)CuCl]·Li, which crystallize in the solid state either in an oligomeric trimer arrangement or in polymeric helixes depending on the substitution pattern and the solvent. Ten zwitterionic heteroleptic Cu(I) complexes combining the anion...

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the influence of diets supplemented with anionic salts on bone metabolism of dairy goats and sheep. Twelve Saanen goats and 12 Ostfrisean milk sheep (fourth lactation) were divided into 2 groups each [sheep control (SC), goat control (GC); sheep anionic salts (SA), goat anionic salts (GA)]. Each group was fed a different diet in the last 10 d ...
