Journal ArticleDOI
Sustained Antifungal Activity from a Ketoconazole-Loaded Nanostructured Mesoporous Silicon Platform
Lynda Tang,Arun Saharay,William Fleischer,Philip S. Hartman,Armando Loni,Leigh T. Canham,Jeffery L. Coffer +6 more
TL;DR: The ultra-small nanosized channels present in the silicon are shown to force an enhanced solubility of the released active, resulting in extended and effective antifungal activity versus Candida albicans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hierarchical Nanostructuring of Porous Silicon with Electrochemical and Regenerative Electroless Etching.
Ermei Mäkilä,Anne-Mari Anton Willmore,Haibo Yu,Marianna Irri,Mark Aindow,Tambet Teesalu,Leigh T. Canham,Kurt W. Kolasinski,Jarno Salonen +8 more
TL;DR: The long-lived, robust visible photoluminescence of these chemically passivated porous silicon nanoparticles is well-suited for bioimaging and theranostic applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biogenic Nanostructured Porous Silicon as a Carrier for Stabilization and Delivery of Natural Therapeutic Species
TL;DR: It is reported that biogenic porous silicon can be utilized to stabilize and enhance the therapeutic effects of garlic oil for up to 4 weeks when the samples were stored under refrigerated conditions and 1 week at room temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of drying technique and surface pre-treatment on the cytotoxicity and dissolution rate of luminescent porous silicon quantum dots in model fluids and living cells
M. B. Gongalsky,Uliana A. Tsurikova,Catherine J. Storey,Yana V. Evstratova,A. A. Kudryavtsev,A. A. Kudryavtsev,Leigh T. Canham,Liubov A. Osminkina,Liubov A. Osminkina +8 more
TL;DR: The stability of the AD- si QDs and the complete dissolution of the SCD-Si QDs during 24 hours of incubation with cells have been demonstrated and might explain the apparent lower cytotoxicity observed for SCd-SiQDs.
