PU films were prepared and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and gel permeation chromatography. We prepared transdermal patches by loading different amounts of drug, plasticizer, and penetration enhancer. In vitro drug permeability through the castor-oil-based aliphatic PU patches was examined with a Keshary-Chien diffusion cell. The effect of castor oil on the film-forming properties and the effect of penetration enhancers on diffusion characteristics of indomethacin (IDM) drug through the castor-oil-based PU were investigated. Prolonged release of IDM was observed from the prepared PU patches. In vitro drug diffusion revealed that slow and prolonged release of IDM was achieved in the absence of penetration enhancers. The use of penetration enhancers showed a significant effect on drug diffusion.

The facile synthetic procedure for generating multiple hydroxyl groups on the fullerene cage offers scope for high drug loading in addition to conferring hydrophilicity. Doxorubicin, a first line cancer chemotherapeutic, was conjugated to fullerenols through a carbamate linker, achieving ultrahigh loading efficiency. The drug-fullerenol conjugate was found to be relatively stable in phosphate buffer saline but temporally released the active drug when incubated with tumor cell lysate. The fullerenol-doxorubicin conjugate suppressed the proliferation of cancer cell-lines in vitro through a G2-M cell cycle block, resulting in apoptosis. Furthermore, in an in vivo murine tumor model, fullerenol-doxorubicin exhibited Comparable antitumor efficacy as free drug without the systemic toxicity of free doxorubicin. Additionally, we demonstrate that the fullerenol platform can be extended to other chemotherapeutic agents, such as the slightly water-soluble cisplatin, and can emerge as a new paradigm in the management of cancer.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9.855</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kumar, S.

Characteristics such as high surface to volume ratios and quantum confinement results in materials that are qualitatively different from their bulk counterparts. These properties not only make them suitable for numerous applications in existing and emerging technologies, but also have outstanding role in many fields that provide inspiration for their fabrication. In Today's trend nanotechnology is spreading vigorously where researchers all over the world are focusing towards their synthesis and applications. Therefore, this review is helpful for the researchers in the field of nanobiotechnology/nanomedicine, providing a brief overview of nanotechnology, covering nanomaterial synthesis methods (with emphasis on environmentally benign greener approaches), their properties, and applications; such as drug delivery, bio-labeling, nanotoxicity etc. The influence of synthesis methods and surface coatings/stabilizing agents and their subsequent applications is discussed, and a broad outline on the biomedical applications into which they have been implemented is also presented.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.351</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kale, Sangeeta N.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jadhav, Anil D.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Verma, Seema</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Koppikar, Soumya J.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kaul-Ghanekar, Ruchika</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dhole, Sanjay D.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ogale, Satishchandra B.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Characterization of biocompatible NiCo2O4 nanoparticles for applications in hyperthermia and drug delivery</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nanomedicine-Nanotechnology Biology and Medicine</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cytotoxicity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">drug delivery</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Magnetic hyperthermia</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Magnetic nanoparticles</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MAY</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PO BOX 211, 1000 AE AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">452-459</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Monodispersed, superparamagnetic nickel cobaltite (NCO) nanoparticles were functionalized using mercaptopropionic acid (MPA). MPA conjugates with NCO forming a metal-carboxylate linkage, with the MPA-MPA interaction occurring via formation of disulfide bonds, leaving another carboxyl end free for additional conjugation. The cytotoxicity studies on NCO-MPA show cell viability of similar to 100% up to a dosage of 40 mu g/mL on SiHa, MCF7, and B16F10 cell lines, and on mouse primary fibroblasts. Time-dependent cell viability studies done for a duration of 72 hours showed the cell lines' viability up to 80% for dosages as high as 80 mu g/mL. Negligible leaching (&amp;lt;5 ppm) of ionic Co or Ni was noted into the delivery medium. Upon subjecting the NCO-MPA dispersion (0.1 mg/mL) to radiofrequency absorption, the nanoparticles were heated to 75 degrees C within 2 minutes, suggesting its promise as a magnetic hyperthermia agent. Furthermore, the amino acid lysine and the drug cephalexin were successfully adducted to the NCO system, suggesting its potential for drug delivery. From the Clinical Editor: NCO-MPA nanopartciles were found to be promising magnetic hyperthermia agents, suggesting potential future clinical applications. (C) 2012 Elsevier Inc.

The Pt-Fe3O4 hybrid nanoparticles are prepared by thermal decomposition of H2PtCl6 center dot 6H(2)O at high temperature. The prepared nanoparticles were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and physical property measurement system (PPMS). Next step of this paper reveals the potential use of novel hybrids of chitosan-g-glycolic acid and Pt-Fe3O4 hybrid nanoparticles in controlled drug delivery applications. The drug loaded nanohybrid scaffold is prepared by freeze drying of grafted polymer solution. Drug loading and grafting of chitosan was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The cell proliferation also shows that the prepared nanohybrids are biocompatible. The nanohybrid was found to be stable regardless of pH of the medium. Therefore, Pt-Fe3O4 hybrid nanoparticles are viable additive for sustained drug delivery and it could be applied in the field of biomedical. (c) 2012 Elsevier B.V.

The electrospinnability of above polysaccharides with PVA was demonstrated for the first time. The oriented fibers could be obtained using a rotating disc collector. Contact angles of spin-coated films and electrospun fibers were discussed in terms of hydrophobicity and wetting characteristics. Further, The nanofibers of EHEC/PVA were in-situ crosslinked using citric acid and were used for controlled release of an antibacterial drug, Chlorhexidine Digluconate (ChD).

Polylactic acid (PLA) is one of the most promising biopolymers as it can be produced from nontoxic renewable feedstock. PLA has emerged as an important polymeric material for biomedical applications on account of its properties such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, mechanical strength and process ability. Lactic acid (LA) can be obtained by fermentation of sugars derived from renewable resources such as corn and sugarcane. PLA is thus an eco-friendly nontoxic polymer with features that permit use in the human body. Although PLA has a wide spectrum of applications, there are certain limitations such as slow degradation rate, hydrophobicity and low impact toughness associated with its use. Blending PLA with other polymers offers convenient options to improve associated properties or to generate novel PLA polymers/blends for target applications. A variety of PLA blends have been explored for various biomedical applications such as drug delivery, implants, sutures and tissue engineering. PLA and their copolymers are becoming widely used in tissue engineering for function restoration of impaired tissues due to their excellent biocompatibility and mechanical properties. The relationship between PLA material properties, manufacturing processes and development of products with desirable characteristics is described in this article. LA production, PLA synthesis and their applications in the biomedical field are also discussed.&lt;/p&gt;

	A series of dual stimuli-responsive block copolymers comprising temperature-responsive poly(N-vinyl-caprolactam) (PVCL) and biodegradable pH-responsive poly(L-lysine) (PLL) of varying chain length were syn-thesized by a combination of free radical polymerization and ring opening polymerization. The block copolymers formed micelles and vesicles (polymersomes) in response to temperature and pH, respectively, in aqueous so-lution. The nanoassemblies were characterized by transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering techniques. Encapsulation of both hydrophobic and hydrophilic dyes in the polymersomes was shown. Doxo-rubicin (DOX) was loaded in the polymersomes and its controlled release in response to the two stimuli, inde-pendently and jointly, was studied. The drug was found to be released due to stimuli-induced increased permeability without disassembly of the polymersomes. A significant increase in the cellular uptake of the drug-loaded polymersomes at hyperthermia conditions was demonstrated at 41 degrees C and release of the drug upon localization in lysosomes was observed. Cellular internalization pathway of the polymersomes was investigated by competitive inhibition assay and a combination of endocytic pathways dominated by caveolae-mediated mechanism was found to be operative.&lt;/p&gt;

	Electrospinning is a well-known technique since 1544 to fabricate nanofibers using different materials like polymers, metals oxides, proteins, and many more. In recent years, electrospinning has become the most popular technique for manufacturing nanofibers due to its ease of use and economic viability. Nanofibers have remarkable properties like high surface-to-volume ratio, variable pore size distribution (10-100 nm), high porosity, low density, and are suitable for surface functionalization. Therefore, electrospun nanofibers have been utilized for numerous applications in the pharmaceutical and biomedical field like tissue engineering, scaffolds, grafts, drug delivery, and so on. In this review article, we will be focusing on the versatility, current scenario, and future endeavors of electrospun nanofibers for various biomedical applications. This review discusses the properties of nanofibers, the background of the electrospinning technique, and its emergence in chronological order. It also covers the various types of electrospinning methods and their mechanism, further elaborating the factors affecting the properties of nanofibers, and applications in tissue engineering, drug delivery, nanofibers as biosensor, skin cancer treatment, and magnetic nanofibers.&lt;/p&gt;

The thin film formation step impacted the nature of the lipid layer, and we optimized 240 RPM rotation speed, 700 mm of Hg vacuum pressure, and 2 ml of chloroform as the organic solvent. The hydration step controlled the particle specifications, and we optimized 270 RPM rotation speed, PBS as the hydrating medium, and 1 h hydration time. We obtained a comparatively smaller liposomal population with a lower size distribution just after hydrating the lipid layer that required milder downsizing steps -10 extrusion passes through a single polycarbonate membrane. The intrinsic factors including the concentrations and molar ratio of lipids affected the synthesis steps and the particle specifications. Characterization of liposomes by analytical techniques confirmed the synthesis of a monodisperse population with hydrodynamic diameter&amp;lt;150 nm, moderate stability, spherical morphology, and high thermal and storage stability. This comprehensive study defines the role of every parameter, provides a mechanistic insight into synthesis that is supported by experimental data, and helps tune specific parameters to synthesize liposomes for drug delivery or any application with desired specifications.&lt;/p&gt;

	A series of dual stimuli-responsive block copolymers with varying content of photocleavable o-nitrobenzyl (ONB) ester group pendent in the hydrophobic poly(epsilon-caprolactone) block and pH-cleavable acetal linkage at the junction with hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) block is synthesized. The hydrophobic block is a random copolymer synthesized by ring-opening copolymerization of epsilon-caprolactone and ONB-substituted epsilon-caprolactone containing varying compositions of the two monomers. Kinetics of polymerization shows that ONBfunctionalized monomer has lower reactivity than that of the unsubstituted monomer. The series of block copolymers shows self-assembly into well-defined spherical micelles of average size of 150-200 nm in aqueous solution. Photocleavage of ONB groups is studied by NMR and UV-vis spectroscopy, and its extent is determined. The two stimuli viz. . UV light and pH are used individually as well as simultaneously to study the controlled release of the encapsulated drug Camptothecin and the synergistic effect of the two stimuli is demonstrated. The effect of varying content of ONB groups is observed on drug release profile. MTT assay showed non-cytotoxic nature of the polymer. Cell uptake and photoinduced release of doxorubicin (DOX) from the micelles in MDAMB-231 cells is demonstrated.&lt;/p&gt;

	Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have emerged as versatile delivery vehicles for nucleic acid-based therapeutics. Despite their increasing importance, the molecular structure and physico-chemical characteristics of LNPs still remain unclear. In this review, the structural features and phase behavior of LNPs are highlighted. First, the various compositional elements, such as cationic lipids, helper lipids and sterols are discussed, illustrating their functional roles in the self-assembly and stability of LNPs. Molecular models derived from experimental and computational approaches are discussed to provide insights into the structural organization of the LNP components. The influence of sterols and helper lipids in modulating LNP architectures, including membrane fluidity and phase separation, which are key factors for both fusion potential and endosomal escape, is discussed. Variations in sterol content and headgroup chemistry can induce transitions from lamellar to non-lamellar structures, thereby influencing gene transfection outcomes. Further, how cationic lipids induce structural phase transitions, such as lamellar-to-hexagonal and inverse cubic rearrangements under physiological and acidic pH, mimicking extracellular and endosomal conditions, are described. These transitions play a pivotal role in ribonucleic acid (RNA) release and membrane fusion events. This comprehensive review allows to reconcile molecular and structural dynamics that would be necessary for rational design of RNA delivery systems.&lt;/p&gt;
