Anti-excitotoxic compounds
Primary hepatocytes are commonly used in cell biological and biopharmaceutical research. In vitro model systems based on hepatocytes have been of great help to better understand the role of hepatoc...
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a class of diseases that involve the heart or blood vessels.[1] Common CVDs include: ischemic heart disease (IHD), stroke, hypertensive heart disease, rheumatic hear...
Polyanhydrides are a class of biodegradable polymers characterized by anhydride bonds that connect repeat units of the polymer backbone chain. Their main application is in the medical device and ph...
Sustained release dosage forms are designed to release a drug at a predetermined rate in order to maintain a constant drug concentration for a specific period of time with minimum side effects. Thi...
RNA polymerase (RNAP or RNApol), also known as DNA-dependent RNA polymerase, is an enzyme that produces primary transcript RNA. In cells, RNAP is necessary for constructing RNA chains using DNA gen...
Shiga-like toxin, also known as verotoxin,[1][2] is a toxin generated by some strains of Escherichia coli (but see below).[3] It is named for its similarity to the AB5-type Shiga toxin produced by ...
Graft Polymers are segmented copolymers with a linear backbone of one composite and randomly distributed branches of another composite. The picture labeled "graft polymer" shows how grafted chains ...
Metal oxide synthesis
Iodinated polymers
Visualization of tumor location
Non-tumorigenic skin care
Proliferative skin disorder/microbial infection treatment
The pokeweed plant is a common plant that is often used as a dye; it is also eaten when the plant is young and tender. Studies and experiments have shown that a specific protein, the Pokeweed Antiv...
DNA stabilizers/Anti-proliferative agents
Caffeine salts/Cancer
Agrobacterium mediated transformation is the easiest and most simple plant transformation. Plant tissue (often leaves) are cut into small pieces, e.g. 10x10mm, and soaked for 10 minutes in a fluid ...
Another type of drug delivery vehicle used is polymeric micelles. They are prepared from certain amphiphilic co-polymers consisting of both hydrophilic and hydrophobic monomer units.[2] They can be...
A light-emitting diode (LED) is a two-lead semiconductor light source. It is a pn-junction diode, which emits light when activated.[4] When a suitable voltage is applied to the leads, electrons are...
