Journal ArticleDOI

Mathematical modeling and in vitro study of controlled drug release via a highly swellable and dissoluble polymer matrix: polyethylene oxide with high molecular weights.

TL;DR: The overall drug release process is found to be highly dependent on the matrix swelling, drug and water diffusion, polymer dissolution and initial dimensions of the tablets, and predicts with a very good agreement with experimental data at different initial loadings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biodegradable poly(ethylene glycol)-peptide hydrogels with well-defined structure and properties for cell delivery.

TL;DR: Biodegradable PEG-peptide hydrogels synthesized using Click chemistry may provide a platform technology to deliver cells for tissue repair and explore the possibility of using the RGD peptidehydrogels for cell-based wound healing.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of non-covalent interactions in anticancer drug loading and kinetic stability of polymeric micelles.

TL;DR: Among all the polymers synthesized in this study, 1b with 8 acid/urea groups in the random form had the optimum properties, indicating that 1b micelles may be a promising carrier for delivery of anticancer drugs that contain amine groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Broad‐Spectrum Antimicrobial and Biofilm‐Disrupting Hydrogels: Stereocomplex‐Driven Supramolecular Assemblies

TL;DR: These hydrogels with hierarchical nanostructures were made with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activities and biofilm-disruption capability have great potential for clinical use in prevention and treatment of various multidrug-resistant infections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeted and intracellular delivery of paclitaxel using multi-functional polymeric micelles.

TL;DR: It was demonstrated that the micelles exhibited a useful pH-induced thermo-sensitivity, such that drug was released more rapidly at pH 5.0 (acidic endosomal/lysosomal environment) than at pH 7.4 (normal extracellular pH).
