Antimicrobial dependence of silver nanoparticles on surface plasmon resonance bands against Escherichia coli
(Dove Press Journal, 2016-12-16)
This study presents a simple and trouble-free method for determining the antimicrobial
properties of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) based on the surface plasmon resonance
(SPR) bands. AgNPs were prepared by chemical reduction ...
Development, characterization and antimalarial efficacy of dihydroartemisinin loaded solid lipid nanoparticles.
(Elsevier, 2016-04-01)
Effective use of dihydroartemisinin (DHA) is limited by poor water-solubility, poor pharmacokinetic profile and unsatisfactory clinical outcome especially in monotherapy. To reduce such limitations, we reformulated DHA ...
