Poly(L-lysine)-grafted-poly(ethylene glycol) nanoparticles for delivery of proteins: Effects of stimulus-responsive crosslinking and tunable millifluidic assembly
(2020-05)
Polymeric nanoparticles have drawn attention for their ability to enhance the efficacy of therapeutic proteins through reduced immunogenicity and extended circulation time. Nevertheless, nanoparticle drug delivery systems ...
Performance evaluation and physical property study of structured packing HETP correlations
(2022-07)
Structured packing HETP correlations play a significant role in the design andoperation of packed distillation columns. A model derived from inadequate HETP data will not only affect where it may perform poorly but will ...
Electrochemical behavior and morphological evolution in carbonaceous and metal anodes for Li-ion and Zn-ion batteries
(2021-05)
Li-ion batteries are ubiquitous in modern society with widespread applications in electric vehicles, personal electronics, and renewable energy storage. However, the practical energy density of the graphite anode commonly ...
Development and characterization of a novel three-dimensional human tissue-engineered lung model to study immune response to respiratory syncytial virus in vulnerable populations
(2023-05)
Lower respiratory illnesses are one of the leading causes of mortality in the United States. Viral lung infections, such as respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), often lead to chronic complications in immunocompromised ...
Microporous membranes for oil-water separation and desalination
(2022-12)
Water supply sustainability is one of the biggest challenges of the century, necessitating efficient and economical technologies for water purification. One of the most critical technologies in our world is filtration ...
Exploiting the optical properties of earth abundant cuprous oxide nanocatalysts for energy and health applications
