Novel lectin-modified poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) mucoadhesive nanoparticles of carvedilol: preparation and in vitro optimization using a two-level factorial design.

Pharm. Dev. Technol. 19(5) , 605-17, (2014)

Carvedilol used in cardiovascular diseases has systemic bioavailability of 25-35%. The objective of this study was production of lectin-modified poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) (PEVA) as mucoadhesive nanoparticles to enhance low oral bioavailability of carved...

Characterization of functionalized polyolefins by high-temperature two-dimensional liquid chromatography.

J. Chromatogr. A. 1285 , 40-7, (2013)

High-temperature two-dimensional liquid chromatography (HT 2D-LC) was developed for the separation and characterization of functional polyolefins. Therefore, the key experimental parameters, namely the injection volume, the mobile phase composition, the flow ...

Characterization of wood plastic composites made from landfill-derived plastic and sawdust: volatile compounds and olfactometric analysis.

Waste Manag. 33(3) , 645-55, (2013)

Application of wood plastic composites (WPCs) obtained from recycled materials initially intended for landfill is usually limited by their composition, mainly focused on release of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which could affect quality or human safety. ...

Graphene/poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) composite electrode fabricated by melt compounding for capillary electrophoretic determination of flavones in Cacumen platycladi.

J. Sep. Sci. 36(4) , 721-8, (2013)

In this report, a graphene/poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) composite electrode was fabricated by melt compounding for the amperometric detection of capillary electrophoresis. The composite electrode was fabricated by packing a mixture of graphene and melted p...

A chemical switch for detecting insect infestation.

Pest Manag. Sci. 68(6) , 906-13, (2012)

Plants emit phytochemicals as a defensive mechanism against herbivores. A small sensor switch that responds to these chemicals could be used to stop insect infestation at early stages.Polyethylene-co-vinyl acetate was chosen as the best polymer for this parti...

Rapidly equilibrating micrometer film sampler for priority pollutants in air.

Environ. Sci. Technol. 46(14) , 7661-8, (2012)

Modified polymer-coated glass samplers (POGs), termed EVA samplers, consist of micrometer-thin layers of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) coated onto a glass fiber filter or aluminum foil substrate. These samplers were designed to equilibrate rapidly with priorit...

Assessment of nose protector for sport activities: finite element analysis.

Dent. Traumatol. 28(2) , 108-13, (2012)

There has been a significant increase in the number of facial fractures stemming from sport activities in recent years, with the nasal bone one of the most affected structures. Researchers recommend the use of a nose protector, but there is no standardization...

Pore networks and polymer rearrangement on a drug-eluting stent as revealed by correlated confocal Raman and atomic force microscopy.

Langmuir 28(21) , 8238-43, (2012)

Drug release from and coating morphology on a CYPHER sirolimus-eluting coronary stent (SES) during in vitro elution were studied by correlated confocal Raman and atomic force microscopy (CRM and AFM, respectively). Chemical surface and subsurface maps of the ...

Effect of rare Earth ions on the properties of composites composed of ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer and layered double hydroxides.

PLoS ONE 7(6) , e37781, (2012)

The study on the rare earth (RE)-doped layered double hydroxides (LDHs) has received considerable attention due to their potential applications in catalysts. However, the use of RE-doped LDHs as polymer halogen-free flame retardants was seldom investigated. F...
