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
Krzysztof Szczepanowicz,Urszula Bazylińska,Jadwiga Pietkiewicz,Lilianna Szyk-Warszyńska,Kazimiera A. Wilk,Piotr Warszyński +5 more
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
Krzysztof Szczepanowicz,H. J. Hoel,Lilianna Szyk-Warszyńska,E. Bielańska,Aud M. Bouzga,G. Gaudernack,Christian Simon,Piotr Warszyński +7 more
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
M. Plawecka,Darya Snihirova,B. Martins,Krzysztof Szczepanowicz,Piotr Warszyński,Maria de Fátima Montemor +5 more
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
Urszula Bazylińska,Renata Skrzela,Krzysztof Szczepanowicz,Piotr Warszyński,Kazimiera A. Wilk +4 more
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.
