General description

Dielectrophoretic deformation of thin liquid fillm of squalane has been investigated[1]. Microfluidized squalenes are efficient adjuvants, eliciting both humoral and cellular immune responses[2].

Application

Squalane has been used:
  • as solvent in the synthesis of Europium dibenzoylmethide triethylammonium, brightest known triboluminescent (TL) material[3]
  • as lubricant for fatty acid surfactant films adsorbed on iron oxide surfaces[4]

Microfluidized squalene or squalane emulsions are efficient adjuvants, eliciting both humoral and cellular immune responses. Microfluidization stabilizes the emulsions and allows sterilization by terminal filtration. The emulsions are stable for years at ambient temperature and can be frozen. Antigens are

Gemcitabine (2',2'-difluorodeoxyribofuranosylcytosine) is an anticancer nucleoside analogue active against a wide variety of solid tumors. However, following intravenous administration, this drug is rapidly inactivated by enzymatic deamination and displays a short biological half-life necessitating the administration of high doses leading
