The development of nanosized drug-carrier systems has been investigated over the past few decades using various techniques. The two main categories of these systems are polymeric nanoparticles and lipid nanoparticles (LNPs). The toxicological risk associated with lipid nanoparticles is significantly lower than the danger associated with polymeric nanoparticles due to the materials' natural and biological origins. Lipid-bas Read More

Nanotechnology applications are extensively broad, and an overview of the main trends worldwide can give an insight into the most researched areas and gaps to be covered. This document presents an overview of the trend topics of the three leading countries studying in this area, as well as Brazil for comparison. The data mining wa Read More

Aim: Ionic liquids are promising green solvents with simple but unique structure-related physical properties such as negligible vapour pressure, exceptional thermal conductivity, remarkable thermal stability and their suitability and inertness towards a broad range of catalytic applications. CuO NPs have been addressed as a cost-effective and a reagent of a choice that necessitates only mild reaction conditions to offer a hig Read More

Introduction: One of common bacteria is Staphylococcus aureus, which is a gram- positive, coagulasepositive, golden color in culture. That causes a wide range of clinical infections, resistance to β-lactam antibiotics. Objectives: In this paper, we investigate the ability of copper nanoparticles in Cu/CuxO composites to inhibit Staphylococcus aureus bacteria and the effect of oxidation temperature on the inhibition efficacy. Method Read More
