Enhanced distance-dependent fluorescence quenching using size tuneable core shell silica nanoparticles (2018)
Journal Article
Elsutohy, M. M., Selo, A., Chauhan, V. M., Tendler, S. J., & Aylott, J. W. (2018). Enhanced distance-dependent fluorescence quenching using size tuneable core shell silica nanoparticles. RSC Advances, 8(62), 35840-35848. https://doi.org/10.1039/C8RA05929B

Silica nanoparticles (SNPs) have been used as favoured platforms for sensor, drug delivery and biological imaging applications, due to their ease of synthesis, size-control and bespoke physico-chemical properties. In this study, we have developed a p... Read More about Enhanced distance-dependent fluorescence quenching using size tuneable core shell silica nanoparticles.

Rapid formulation of redox-responsive oligo-?-aminoester polyplexes with siRNA via jet printing (2018)
Journal Article
Lovato, T., Taresco, V., Alazzo, A., Sansone, C., Stolnik, S., Alexander, C., & Conte, C. (2018). Rapid formulation of redox-responsive oligo-?-aminoester polyplexes with siRNA via jet printing. Journal of Materials Chemistry B, 6(41), 6550-6558. https://doi.org/10.1039/C8TB01215F

Here we describe a rapid inkjet formulation method for screening newly-synthesised cationic materials for siRNA delivery into cancer cells. Reduction responsive oligo-?-aminoesters were prepared and evaluated for their ability to condense siRNA into...

Quantitative prediction of oral bioavailability of a lipophilic antineoplastic drug bexarotene administered in lipidic formulation using a combined in vitro lipolysis/microsomal metabolism approach (2018)
Journal Article
Lee, J. B., Kim, T. H., Feng, W., Choi, H. G., Zgair, A., Shin, S., …Shin, B. S. (2019). Quantitative prediction of oral bioavailability of a lipophilic antineoplastic drug bexarotene administered in lipidic formulation using a combined in vitro lipolysis/microsomal metabolism approach. Pharmaceutical Sciences, 108(2), 1047-1052. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.xphs.2018.09.025

For performance assessment of the lipid-based drug delivery systems (LBDDS), in vitro lipolysis is commonly applied because traditional dissolution tests do not reflect the complicated in vivo micellar formation and solubilisation processes. Much of...
