The main objective of this work was to develop a nanoemulsion based on linseed oil and betulinic acid, stabilized with Pluronic F127 and polyglycerol polyricinoleate, for anticancer applications. The nanoemulsions were synthesized by ultrasound and evaluated for in vitro cytotoxicity, particle size, polydispersity index, zeta potential, morphology, encapsulation efficiency, storage stability, rheology and in vi...
Non-doped (Hap) and doped hydroxyapatites with Cu2+ and Fe2+ were synthesized and used to study the adsorption of furan (Fur), pyrrole (Pyr), and thiophene (Thi) in single and ternary component systems. Spectroscopic data and N2 isotherms indicated there were no structural alterations in Hap with the incorporation of Cu2+ and Fe2+. For both single and ternary components, the incorporation of the metal ions resu...
