A dual catalytic functionalized hollow mesoporous silica-based nanocarrier coated with…
Abstract
In this study, we introduced a multifunctional hollow mesoporous silica-based nanocarrier (HMSN) for the targeted delivery of irinotecan (IRT) to colorectal cancer cells. Due to their large reservoirs, hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles are suitable platforms for loading significant…

Effect of the drying type on the properties of granules and tablets produced by high shear wet…
Although high shear mixers can represent a single-pot process, separate drying equipment is commonly employed. Limited literature exists on the use of a heating jacket coupled with a vacuum pump typically used in a single-pot setup, so this study compares the drying effects of a single-pot setup…

The Development of Lipid-Based Sorafenib Granules to Enhance the Oral Absorption of Sorafenib
Abstract
Sorafenib (SFN) is an anticancer multi-kinase inhibitor with great therapeutic potential. However, SFN has low aqueous solubility, which limits its oral absorption. Lipids and surfactants have the potential to improve the solubility of water-insoluble drugs. The aim of this study is thus…

Comparison of the liquisolid technique and co-milling for loading of a poorly soluble drug in…
Abstract
Drug loading into mesoporous carriers may help to improve the dissolution of poorly aqueous-soluble drugs. However, both preparation method and carrier properties influence loading efficiency and drug release. Accordingly, this study aimed to compare two preparation methods: formulation…

Co-processed materials testing as excipients to produce Orally Disintegrating Tablets (ODT) using…
The use of co-processed materials for Orally Disintegrating Tablets (ODT) preparation by direct compression is well consolidated. However, the evaluation of their potential for ODT preparation by 3D printing technology remains almost unexplored. The present study aimed to estimate the use of…

Pre and post characterization of ODTs with emphasis on compression force and quality of…
Oral dispersible tablets (ODTs) are patient compliant dosage forms which rapidly disintegrate in the mouth following active absorption with rapid onset of action. The current study was designed to resolve compression problems used for ODTs, as high compression force exhibited hardness and drug…

A pH-sensitive silica nanoparticles for colon-specific delivery and controlled release of catechin:…
Catechin is a naturally occurring flavonoid of the flavan-3-ol subclass with numerous biological functions; however, these benefits are diminished due to several factors, including low water solubility and degradation in the stomach's harsh environment. So, this study aimed to develop an intelligent…

Silica nanoparticles for brain cancer
ABSTRACT
Introduction
Brain cancer is a debilitating disease with a poor survival rate. There are significant challenges for effective treatment due to the presence of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and blood-tumor barrier (BTB) which impedes drug delivery to tumor sites. Many nanomedicines have…
