The Alginate Layer for Improving Doxorubicin Release and Radiolabeling Stability of Chitosan Hydrogels
Chitosan hydrogels (CSH) formed through ionic interaction with an anionic molecule are suitable as a drug carrier and a tissue engineering scaffold. However, the initial burst release of drugs from the CSH due...

Evaluation of Selective Arterial Embolization Effect by Chitosan Micro-Hydrogels in Hindlimb Sarcoma Rodent Models Using Various Imaging Modalities
Embolization is mainly used to reduce the size of locally advanced tumors. In this study, selective arterial catheterization with chitosan micro-hydrogels (CMH) into the femoral artery was performed and the th...

Effect of Angiogenesis Induced by Consecutive Intramuscular Injections of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in a Hindlimb Ischemic Mouse Model
Angiogenesis plays a major role in various physiological and pathological situations. Thus, an angiogenic therapy with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been commonly recommended as a representativ...

Skeletal isomerization of 1-butene over ferrierite and ZSM-5 zeolites: influence of zeolite acidity
Three ferrierite (FER) and five ZSM-5 (MFI) zeolites with SiO2Al2O3 ratio ranging from 27 to 2000 are tested as catalysts for the skeletal isomerization of 1-butene at 350–450°C and atmospheric total pressure in ...

The role of carbonaceous deposits in the skeletal isomerization of 1-butene over ferrierite zeolites
The inner pores of ferrierite (FER) with a Si/Al ratio of 21 have been modified by plasma-polymerized propylene loading and subsequent thermal treatment under a flow of He at 550°C in order to identify the exa...
