Advances and challenges in the field of plasma polymer nanoparticles
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2017, 8, 2002–2014, doi:10.3762/bjnano.8.200
- to the investigation of the properties of plasma polymer particles themselves, regardless of the effects their presence produces on the plasma. It was recognized that polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) can be highly desired in various fields including photonics [37] and biomedical applications where they
Cationic PEGylated polycaprolactone nanoparticles carrying post-operation docetaxel for glioma treatment
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2017, 8, 1446–1456, doi:10.3762/bjnano.8.144
- treat brain tumors and prevent tumor recurrence. The aim of this study was to develop core–shell polymeric nanoparticles with positive charge by employing a chitosan coating. Additionally, an implantable formulation for the chemotherapeutic nanoparticles was developed as a bioadhesive film to be applied
- barrier. The size of these fenestrations depends on the type of organ and tumor [51]. For this reason, the nanoparticle particle size is crucial for a targeted organ/tumor. As core–shell polymeric nanoparticles can be prepared using different techniques, the optimal preparation technique was determined to
- when compared with non-coated nanoparticles. Conclusion In this study, the anticancer drug DOC, encapsulated in anionic and cationic polymeric nanoparticles and administered in a bioadhesive film formulation, was successfully developed to apply the chemotherapeutic drug directly to the action site
Predicting cytotoxicity of PAMAM dendrimers using molecular descriptors
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2015, 6, 1886–1896, doi:10.3762/bjnano.6.192
- resulting in their well-defined, highly branched structure [12][13]. The generation of the dendrimer is determined by the number of concentric shells that surround the core of the structure. These polymeric nanoparticles can easily be tailored for specific applications. Benefiting from their characteristic
Hematopoietic and mesenchymal stem cells: polymeric nanoparticle uptake and lineage differentiation
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2015, 6, 383–395, doi:10.3762/bjnano.6.38
- interaction in malignant cell lines. Here, we report on the influence of polymeric nanoparticles on human hematopoietic stem cells (hHSCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). In this study we systematically investigated the influence of polymeric nanoparticles on the cell functionality and differentiation
- particles were fluorescently labeled with the fluorescent dye N-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)perylene-3,4-dicarboximide (PMI). The magnetite was encapsulated for magnetic resonance purposes. The polymeric nanoparticles used in this work were obtained by miniemulsion polymerization (non-functionalized and

Drug-loaded nanoparticles
- , biodegradable polymeric nanoparticles are a promising vehicle for smart drug delivery systems and to this regard, it is even more important to examine intracellular degradation dynamics of these bio-polymers. The objective of this work is to follow the fate of intracellular PLLA nanoparticles over a long time
Near-infrared dye loaded polymeric nanoparticles for cancer imaging and therapy and cellular response after laser-induced heating

- ; TPO catalytic; Introduction In recent years miniemulsions have been studied intensively [1][2][3]. Polymeric nanoparticles [1][2] from homo- or copolymers [3] as well as hybrid materials [3][4] such as magnetic [5][6][7][8] or silica/polymer nanoparticles [9][10] have been synthesized by this
Platinum nanoparticles from size adjusted functional colloidal particles generated by a seeded emulsion polymerization process

- incorporation. Quantitative incorporation, for example, to create a precise stoichiometry of several different molecules within a latex particle, is thus impeded by emulsion polymerization [16]. Miniemulsion polymerization on the contrary is a powerful tool for the synthesis of highly functional polymeric
