Stroke Management: An Emerging Role of Nanotechnology

TL;DR: Nanotechnology is a growing field, offering an encouraging future prospect for medical research in the management of strokes, and several obstacles remain to be overcome when using such nanomaterials for treating stroke and other neurological diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adsorption of obidoxime onto human serum albumin nanoparticles: Drug loading, particle size and drug release

TL;DR: The in vitro release of obidoxime from HSA nanoparticles showed a rapid release of the drug from the nanoparticles within 3 h, and at higher concentrations the particle diameter increased significantly with obdoxime concentration leading to instable particle systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Branched amphiphilic peptide capsules: cellular uptake and retention of encapsulated solutes.

TL;DR: The ability of the constructs to retain alpha particle emitting radionuclides without any apparent leakage and their persistence in the peri-nuclear region of the cell for extended periods of time makes them attractive as biocompatible carriers for targeted cancer therapy using particle emitting radioisotopes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adsorption, Desorption, and Removal of Polymeric Nanomedicine on and from Cellulose Surfaces: Effect of Size

TL;DR: Hydrodynamic forces acting parallel to the surfaces are found to be of great importance in the context of particle dynamics near the cellulose surface, and ultimately responsible for the removal of some fraction of particles via rolling or sliding.
