Journal ArticleDOI

Encapsulation of nanosized magnetic iron oxide by polyacrylamide via inverse miniemulsion polymerization

TL;DR: In this article, polyacrylamide particles containing nanosized magnetic iron oxide were prepared via inverse miniemulsion polymerization, and the particle size of magnetic polymeric particles is about 100nm, and these particles are superparamagnetic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preparation of magnetic molecularly imprinted polymer for rapid determination of bisphenol A in environmental water and milk samples.

TL;DR: The proposed method provides a rapid and reliable analysis but it also overcomes problems with conventional solid-phase extraction (SPE), such as the packing of the SPE column and the time-consuming nature of the process of loading large-volume samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glutathione- and pH-responsive nonporous silica prodrug nanoparticles for controlled release and cancer therapy

TL;DR: The results suggest that the stimuli-responsive silica prodrug NPs are promising anticancer drug carriers for efficient cancer therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Orally Targeted Delivery of Tripeptide KPV via Hyaluronic Acid-Functionalized Nanoparticles Efficiently Alleviates Ulcerative Colitis

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the HA-KPV-NP/hydrogel system has the capacity to release HA- KPVV-NPs in the colonic lumen and that these NPs subsequently penetrate into colitis tissues and enable KPV to be internalized into target cells, thereby alleviating UC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unimolecular micelles of amphiphilic cyclodextrin-core star-like block copolymers for anticancer drug delivery

TL;DR: Well-defined star-like amphiphilic polymers composed of a β-cyclodextrin core, from which 21 hydrophobic poly(lactic acid) arms and hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) arms are grafted sequentially, form robust and uniform unimolecular micelles that are biocompatible and efficient in the delivery of anticancer drugs.
