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 ...
State of the art and future directions in nanomedicine for tuberculosis.
(Expert Opinion on Drug Delivery, 2013-12-01)
Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) ranks the second leading cause of death from an infectious disease worldwide. However, treatment of TB is affected by poor patient compliance due to the requirement for daily drug administration, ...
Effects of spray-drying on w/o/w multiple emulsions prepared from a stearic acid matrix
(2014-01-01)
The goal of this study was to explore the effects of spray-drying on w/o/w double emulsions of methyltestosterone (MT) loaded in a stearic acid matrix. MT-loaded nanoparticles were formulated by a water-in-oil-in-water ...
In vivo/in vitro pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic study of spray-dried poly-(dl-lactic-co-glycolic) acid nanoparticles encapsulating rifampicin and isoniazid.
(Elsevier B.V., 2013-02-28)
Poly-(dl-lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) nanoparticles were prepared by a double emulsion solvent evaporation spray-drying technique and coated with polyethylene glycol (PEG 1% v/v). The PLGA nanoparticles had a small size ...
Enhanced oral bioavailability of the antiretroviral efavirenz encapsulated in poly(epsilon-caprolactone) nanoparticles by a spray-drying method.
(NANOMEDICINE, 2014-10-17)
Aim: To encapsulate efavirenz (EFV) within poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) nanoparticles (NPs) and compare the oral pharmacokinetics with that of EFV-loaded micelles and pure EFV NPs. Materials & methods: EFV-loaded PCL ...
