Journal ArticleDOI

Silver-nanoparticle-embedded antimicrobial paints based on vegetable oil

TL;DR: An environmentally friendly chemistry approach to synthesize metal-nanoparticle (MNP)-embedded paint, in a single step, from common household paint, showing excellent antimicrobial properties by killing both Gram-positive human pathogens and Gram-negative bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enzyme catalysis: tool to make and break amygdalin hydrogelators from renewable resources: a delivery model for hydrophobic drugs.

TL;DR: A novel approach for the controlled delivery of an antiinflammatory, chemopreventive drug by an enzyme-triggered drug release mechanism via the degradation of encapsulated hydrogels is reported, with a potential impact on pharmaceutical research and molecular design and delivery strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI

An inflammation-targeting hydrogel for local drug delivery in inflammatory bowel disease

TL;DR: Ex vivo analysis of colon tissue samples from patients with ulcerative colitis demonstrated that IT-hydrogel microfibers adhered preferentially to mucosa from inflamed lesions compared with histologically normal sites, suggesting that this new gel-based delivery system could reach and directly treat areas of epithelial inflammation in humans.
