Crystal Size Dependence of the Photo-Electrochemical Water Oxidation on Nanoparticulate CaTiO3
Crystal Size Dependence of the Photo-Electrochemical Water Oxidation on Nanoparticulate CaTiO3 Monika Klusáčková, Roman Nebel, Kateřina Minhová Macounová, Petr Krtil Abstract Nanocrystalline CaTiO3 materials with controlled particle size were prepared using spray-freezing/freeze-drying approach utilizing gelatine as a structure-directing agent. The resulting materials show characteristic particle size between 19 and 60 nm. The shape of the nanocrystals… Continue reading Crystal Size Dependence of the Photo-Electrochemical Water Oxidation on Nanoparticulate CaTiO3

Strategies for stabilization and preservation of liposomes
Strategies for stabilization and preservation of liposomes Pintu Chowdhary, L. Mahalakshmi, Sayantani Dutta, J.A. Moses, C. Anandharamakrishnan Abstract The stabilization of liposomes is an important aspect for maintaining the integrity of liposome structure. The stability of liposomes reduces in terms of uncontrollable fusion, undesirable payload loss, short shelf life, and unexpected mixing. Additionally, liposomes undergo… Continue reading Strategies for stabilization and preservation of liposomes

Spray-Freeze-Drying of Foods and Bioproducts: Theory, Applications and Perspectives
Spray-Freeze-Drying of Foods and Bioproducts: Theory, Applications and Perspectives S. Padma Ishwarya Book Description Spray-freeze-drying (SFD) is a synergistic drying technology that imbibes in it the merits of both spray drying and freeze-drying, whilst overcoming the limitations of these predecessor technologies. SFD produces uniquely powdered food and pharmaceutical products with porous microstructure and superior quality… Continue reading Spray-Freeze-Drying of Foods and Bioproducts: Theory, Applications and Perspectives
Rivaroxaban lyospheres prepared by a dimethyl sulfoxide-based spray-freeze-drying process
Rivaroxaban lyospheres prepared by a dimethyl sulfoxide-based spray-freeze-drying process Jan Kožák, Claire Chrétien, Yann Pellequer, Alf Lamprecht Abstract Spray-freeze-drying (SFD) processes are usually using aqueous solvent systems, which however, exclude the use of SFD for poorly water-soluble drugs/excipients. Here, we evaluated dimethyl sulfoxide for its suitability in formulating SFD particles (lyospheres®). Rivaroxaban was spray-freeze-dried from… Continue reading Rivaroxaban lyospheres prepared by a dimethyl sulfoxide-based spray-freeze-drying process
