To investigate the effect of the manufacturing method (spray-drying or hot-melt extrusion) on the kinetic miscibility of miconazole and the graft copolymer poly(ethyleneglycol-g-vinylalcohol). The effect of heat pre-treatment of solutions used for spray-drying and the use of spray-dried copolymer as

In this study, we describe the use of organized mesoporous titanium oxide (TiO(2)) films as three-dimensional templates for protein microarrays with enhanced protein loading capacity and detection sensitivity. Multilayered mesoporous TiO(2) films with high porosity and good connectivity were synthesized

The objective of this study was to investigate the drug release mechanism and in vivo performance of Tanshinone IIA sustained-release pellets, coated with blends of polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) and poly(vinyl alcohol)-poly(ethylene glycol) (PVA-PEG) graft copolymer. A formulation screening study showed
