Functional Composite Inorganic Nanoparticles/Polyelectrolyte Microcapsules: Synthesis and Properties
GAO, HUI; Queen Mary University of LondonFunctionalization of drug carriers using engineered inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) is currently an important topic. Polyelectrolyte microcapsules, as one of potential drug delivery systems, can be facilely functionalized ... -
Molecular dynamics simulations of thermodynamic and dynamical properties of liquids and supercritical fluids
WANG, L; Queen Mary University of London (2019-02-27)Liquid is the least understood state of matter from theoretical point of view among solids, liquids and gases. This is due to the strong interactions and large displacement in liquids compared to solids and gases and, ... -
Self-assembled monolayers to create novel surfaces utilising peptides identified by phage display for in vitro study of cancer stem cells
O'MALLEY, C; Queen Mary University of London (2019-03-01)Systematic analyses of global cancer rates suggest the annual number of head and neck cancer (HNC) cases is approaching 1 million and in England 5-year survival rates are remain around 50%. This is due to metastasis and ... -
Targeting Microvesicles to the Arthritic Joint Using Antibodies Specific to Damaged Cartilage
TOPPING, LOUISE; Queen Mary University of London (2019-02-20)Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disease and the second most common form of arthritis. The efficacy of current treatments for RA is limited by an increased risk of off target effects and a high percentage ...
