Journal ArticleDOI
Differential scanning calorimetry of crystallized PVA hydrogels
TL;DR: In this article, crosslinked poly(vinyl alcohol) hydrogels produced via electron beam irradiation of aqueous PVA solutions were crystallized via a two-stage dehydration-annealing process to produce swollen hydrogel of varying degrees of crystallinity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrogels and Scaffolds for Immunomodulation
Ankur Singh,Nicholas A. Peppas +1 more
TL;DR: An insight into emerging hydrogel and scaffold based immunomodulatory approaches that continue to demonstrate efficacy against immune associated diseases is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Drug/Polymer Matrix Swelling and Dissolution
TL;DR: The swelling and dissolution behavior of pharmaceutical systems containing a drug and a polymer can be analyzed by a mathematical model which predicts the drug released and the gel layer thickness as a function of time.
Journal ArticleDOI
The intravenous route to blood glucose control
TL;DR: Close-loop blood glucose regulation algorithms that use the intravenous route for insulin delivery to insulin-dependent diabetic patients and classical control methods and advanced algorithms using implicit knowledge or explicit models are examined are examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Responsive theranostic systems: integration of diagnostic imaging agents and responsive controlled release drug delivery carriers.
TL;DR: Recent advances in the field of nanotheranostics are explored and targeted theranostic nanocarriers offer an attractive improvement to disease treatment because of their ability to execute simultaneous functions at targeted diseased sites.
