Porous coordination polymers (PCPs) have been of great interest for scientist and engineers due to their potential use in applications such as heterogeneous catalysis, molecular storage, and gas separation via adsorption. ...

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is one critical component of the tissue microenvironment that regulates many cellular functions, providing biochemical and biomechanical cues for tissue development and function. Collagen is ...

In this work was studied the rotational Brownian motion of magnetic spherical and tri-axial ellipsoidal particles suspended in a Newtonian fluid, in the dilute suspension limit, under applied shear and magnetic fields by ...

The discovery and development of highly hydrophobic drugs represents an additional challenge for the pharmaceutical industry, as traditional methods of encapsulation, administration, and dosage are not always appropriate. ...

Magnetite nanoparticles are attractive for biomedical applications such as magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH), a novel cancer treatment, due to their ability to induce heating through energy dissipation in an oscillating ...

Due to their outstanding and tunable electronic properties, platinum nanowires have the potential to be used in the development of advanced devices. The quantum confinement effect of the electrons and the increased surface ...

Multidrug resistance (MDR) is responsible for the low absorption of a very wide range of drugs and has been recognized as one of the major hurdles in drug absorption. Crosslinked poly(ethylene glycol) based morphologies ...

This dissertation sheds some light on the dynamics and rheological properties of compound multiphase drops in the creeping motion limit of the fluid phases from a fundamental standpoint. A compound multiphase drop can ...

Mezclado es uno de los pasos más importantes en el manejo de los polvos en muchas industrias tales como en la industria química, metalúrgica, farmacéutica, alimenticia, etc., debido al gran efecto que tiene en la composición ...

The Green's functions integral technique is used to determine the conduction heat transfer temperature field in flat plates, circular plates, and solid spheres with saw tooth heat generating sources. In all cases the ...
