Process-design-translation interplay in lipid nanocarriers for vaginal mucosa delivery: how far have we advanced?

Nowadays, translational research all across the globe has increasingly been valued for focusing on mucosa delivery across the vaginal avenue, attributed to its anatomy and physiology; however, rapid mucus turnover, poor permeability, and retention popped out as the biggest constr...

Experimental investigation and predictive modeling of wear in Al7075–SiC nanocomposites

This study examines the dry sliding wear behavior of Al7075-3 wt% SiC nanocomposites using a pin-on-disc tribometer and ASTM G99 standards. Experimental results indicate that tribological responses are strongly affected by sliding distance, applied load, and sliding speed. When t...

Phytogenic Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles as Efficient Antibacterial, Antioxidant, and Photocatalysts for Environmental Remediation

In the present work, CeO2 nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized greenly using Alexandrian senna leaf extract as a reducing and stabilizing agent. The synthesized nanoparticles were analyzed using several analytical techniques to investigate their physicochemical properties. The av...
