In recent years, natural and synthetic polymers have attracted much attention due to their great potentials in medical science. In the present study, we have investigated the effect of chitosan-bulk (Ch-bulk), chitosan nanoparticles (ChNP), chitosan ...
Amphiphilic block copolymers poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(methacrylic acid-co-2-nitroimidazole methacrylate) (PEG-b-P(MAA-co-NIMA)) were synthesized by the combination of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), hydrolysis and EDC reactions. ...
Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) are biocompatible and biodegradable nanoscale systems with extensive application for controlled drug release. However, the development of optimal nanosystems along with a reproducible manufacturing process is still...
The aim of this study was to utilize an artificial neural network (ANN) in conjunction with an evolutionary algorithm to investigate the relationship between hot melt extrusion (HME) process parameters and vaginal film performance. Investigated HME p...

Soft organisms such as earthworms can access confined, narrow spaces, inspiring scientists to fabricate soft robots for in vivo manipulation of cells or tissues and minimally invasive surgery. We report a super-soft and super-elastic magnetic DNA hyd...
As simulators of organisms in Nature, soft robots have been developed over the past few decades. In particular, biohybrid robots constructed by integrating living cells with soft materials demonstrate the unique advantage of simulating the constructi...
Over the past decade, DNA nanotechnology has spawned a broad variety of functional nanostructures tailored toward the enabled state at which applications are coming increasingly in view. One of the branches of these applications is in synthetic biolo...
Systemic chemotherapy remains the backbone of many cancer treatments. Due to its untargeted nature and the severe side effects it can cause, numerous nanomedicine approaches have been developed to overcome these issues. However, targeted delivery of ...
