Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of monodisperse copper nanoparticles.

TL;DR: The antimicrobial studies showed that the copper nanoparticles had high activity against Gram-positive bacteria, standard and clinical strains, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, comparable to silver nanoparticles and some antibiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biocompatible long-sustained release oil-core polyelectrolyte nanocarriers: From controlling physical state and stability to biological impact

TL;DR: This paper reviews recent developments in the formation of polyelectrolyte oil-core nanocarriers by subsequent multilayer adsorption at micellar structures, their imaging, physical state and stability, drug encapsulation and applications, in vitro release profiles and in vitro biological evaluation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Formation of biocompatible nanocapsules with emulsion core and pegylated shell by polyelectrolyte multilayer adsorption

TL;DR: These nanocapsules were biocompatible when tested for cytotoxicity in a cellular coculture assay and demonstrated no or very low nonspecific binding to peripheral blood mononuclear cells when tested by flow cytometry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self healing ability of inhibitor-containing nanocapsules loaded in epoxy coatings applied on aluminium 5083 and galvanneal substrates

TL;DR: The self-healing ability of water based epoxy coatings modified with nanocapsules loaded with 2-Mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) and applied on AA5083 and galvanneal substrates was investigated by electrochemical techniques and salt spray corrosion tests as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel approach to long sustained multilayer nanocapsules: influence of surfactant head groups and polyelectrolyte layer number on the release of hydrophobic compounds

TL;DR: In this article, a nanoemulsion-templated long sustained polyelectrolyte (PE) nanocapsules (average size < 200 nm) loaded with Oil Red O and two cyanine-type photosensitizers were successfully fabricated by using the layer-by-layer (LbL) technique.
