To elucidate the mechanism of stimuli-responsive permeability and to optimize the design, the nanostructure of polymeric composite membranes, developed in our laboratory, was characterized. The membranes were prepared to contain various amounts of stimuli-responsive nanoparticles of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-methacrylic acid), with or

The loading of an antihypertensive cationic drug, diltiazem hydrochloride (DIL.HCl), into poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) [P(N-iPAAm)], poly(methacrylic acid) [P(MAA)], and their poly[(N-isopropylacrylamide)-co-(methacrylic acid)] P[(N-iPAAm)-co-(MAA)] hydrogels as well as their release behaviour have been investigated. For this purpose, two series of hydrogels have been

A new glucose-responsive polymeric composite membrane that provided pulsatile insulin release was developed in our laboratory previously. To develop a clinically useful insulin delivery system, this study was designed to investigate factors influencing insulin stability during delivery by this membrane.

In this study, we report a new controlled release system based on up-conversion luminescent microspheres of NaYF(4):Yb(3+)/Er(3+) coated with the smart hydrogel poly[(N-isopropylacrylamide)-co-(methacrylic acid)] (P(NIPAM-co-MAA)) (prepared using 5 mol % of MAA) shell. The hybrid microspheres show bright up-conversion fluorescence

A promising avenue in cancer therapy using liposomal formulations is the combination of site-specific delivery with triggered drug release. The use of trigger mechanisms in liposomes could be relevant for drugs susceptible to lysosomal hydrolytic/enzymatic degradation. Here, we propose a
