Antibacterial nanofibers of pullulan/tetracycline-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes for fast-disintegrating oral drug delivery
(Elsevier Inc., 2021-12-08)Tetracycline is a widely used antibiotic suffering from poor water solubility and low bioavailability. Here, hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HPβCD) was used to form inclusion complexes (IC) of tetracycline with 2:1 M ratio ... -
Antifouling superhydrophobic surfaces with bactericidal and SERS activity
(Elsevier BV, 2022-03-01)Fouling and contamination of surfaces are prevailing challenges humanities facing today in fields such as healthcare, hospitality, and food manufacturing. These challenges strongly motivate the development of multifunctional ... -
Electrospinning of cyclodextrin functional nanofibers for drug delivery applications
(MDPI AG, 2019)Electrospun nanofibers have sparked tremendous attention in drug delivery since they can offer high specific surface area, tailored release of drugs, controlled surface chemistry for preferred protein adsorption, and tunable ... -
Electrospinning of cyclodextrin functionalized nanofibers and their applications
(Bilkent University, 2016-08)Electrospinning is a widely used versatile method to produce nanofibers with high surface to volume ratio and porous structure. Owing to the unique properties, electrospun nanofibers are of great importance as a carrier ... -
Mathematical modelling of bacterial quorum sensing: a review
(Springer, 2016)Bacterial quorum sensing (QS) refers to the process of cell-to-cell bacterial communication enabled through the production and sensing of the local concentration of small molecules called autoinducers to regulate the ... -
One-step green synthesis of antibacterial silver nanoparticles embedded in electrospun cyclodextrin nanofibers
(Elsevier, 2019)Antibacterial electrospun nanofibers based on cyclodextrin (CD) and silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) were produced by solution electrospinning from aqueous and DMF solutions using different Ag contents. CD molecules acted ... -
Polylactic acid (PLA)/Silver-NP/VitaminE bionanocomposite electrospun nanofibers with antibacterial and antioxidant activity
(Springer, 2014-10)The antibacterial property of silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) and the antioxidant activity of Vitamin E have been combined by incorporation of these two active components within polylactic acid (PLA) nanofibers via electrospinning ...
