Researchers have practiced a variety of solid and liquid lipids with acceptable profiles i Read More

Aim: The aim of this study was to develop and characterize Methotrexate loaded solid lipid nanoparticles by Microemulsion technique. Background: Methotrexate is a preferable anti metabolite drug. It is used in the treatment of certain cancers like breast cancer, skin and lung cancer. Clinical studies have revealed that the curative effect of MTX tablet on cancers was limited due to their toxic dose-related side effects to normal Read More

Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the mechanical properties of polymer nanocomposites (PNCs) reinforced with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT). Methods: Mixing MWCNT into the polymer at very small propositions can enrich the mechanical properties of the polymer nanocomposites. The test specimen was fabricated with 0.1wt%, 0.5wt%, and 1wt% mixing ratios using extrusion and injection molding Read More
