This review focuses on the characterization of the thixotropic property, the factors affecting
the thixotropic property and its pharmaceutical applications. These factors include pH …

In recent years, polymer/clay nanocomposites have attracted considerable interest because
they combine the structure and physical and chemical properties of inorganic and organic …

In this study, hordein-chitosan complex particles (HCPs) were prepared using anti-solvent
precipitation method. The addition of chitosan led to the increase in the particle diameter …

A “Clay Bio Polymer Nanocomposite”(CBPN) to be used in drug release was prepared by
dispersion of montmorillonite (Mt) particles in chitosan (Ch) solution. The obtained hybrid …

Polymer–clay nanocomposites have attracted great attention worldwide from both academic
and industrial points of view. This review aims at reporting on very recent developments in …

In our previous study, lung tumor-specific targeting of paclitaxel was achieved in mice by
intravenous administration of chitosan-modified paclitaxel-loaded PLGA nanoparticles (C …

Controlling rheological properties offers the opportunity to gain insight into the physical
characteristics, structure, stability and drug release rate of formulations. To better understand …

Silver compounds and especially silver sulfadiazine (AgSD) are reported as effective
antimicrobial agents against almost all known bacteria, fungi and some viruses. However …
