Journal ArticleDOI

Studies on MCM-41 mesoporous silica for drug delivery: Effect of particle morphology and amine functionalization

Miguel Manzano, +7 more
- 15 Mar 2008 - 
TL;DR: Amine-functionalized MCM-41 micro-spheres were found to show a significantly slower drug release rate than irregularly shaped powders, which should facilitate drug delivery control over a longer time period.
Journal ArticleDOI

Flexible Tactile Sensing Based on Piezoresistive Composites: A Review

Stefano Stassi, +3 more
- 14 Mar 2014 - 
TL;DR: This work provides a review on the different type of composite materials, classified according to the conduction mechanism and analyzing the physics behind it, with a perspective overview on the most used filler types and polymeric matrices.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sonophotocatalytic degradation mechanisms of Rhodamine B dye via radicals generation by micro- and nano-particles of ZnO

Carmine Lops, +9 more
- 01 Apr 2019 - 
TL;DR: An environmental friendly sonophotocatalytic approach to efficiently treat polluted waters from industrial dyes exploiting ZnO micro- and nano-materials shows a great potential and a starting point to investigate further the efficient treatment of organic dyes in wastewater.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanoparticle-assisted ultrasound: A special focus on sonodynamic therapy against cancer

Giancarlo Canavese, +9 more
- 15 May 2018 - 
TL;DR: This review article focuses on therapeutically-active nanoparticles (NPs) when stimulated by ultrasound and the possible working mechanisms under debate of NPs-assisted sonodynamic treatments, showing that this very innovative and promising approach is however still at its infancy in the clinical cancer treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of different PEGylation patterns on the long-term bio-stability of colloidal mesoporous silica nanoparticles

Valentina Alice Cauda, +2 more
- 28 Sep 2010 - 
TL;DR: The behavior of PEG-coated CMS nanoparticles was investigated in simulated body fluid (SBF) for up to 1 month at 37 °C, with the aim of gaining new insights regarding the stability and bio-degradability of these organic-inorganic hybrid nanoparticles.
