Construction of calcium carbonate-liposome dual-film coated mesoporous silica as a delayed drug…
As is well known to all, delivering drug precisely to the tumor site is beneficial to improve the antitumor effect. In this study, we reported mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) coated with dual-film of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and lipid bilayer (denoted as MSNs@CaCO3@liposomes) innovatively…

The Effect of Polymers on Drug Release Kinetics in Nanoemulsion In Situ Gel Formulation
Glaucoma is an ocular condition characterized by elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). Conventional treatments of glaucoma face poor corneal permeability and bioavailability. To address these issues, a nanoemulsion in situ gel of Timolol maleate was developed in this study by adding the polymer…

Improved solubility of lornoxicam by inclusion into SBA-15: Comparison of loading methods
An increasing proportion of new medicinal substances are poorly soluble in water. Adsorption on mesoporous silicas increases their bioavailability when administered orally. Loading method determines adsorption either on the surface in crystalline state or inside the mesopores in amorphous form. The…
