The candesartan cilexetil SMEDDS with PEG-PLA as long-circulating materials were successfully prepared and characterized by appearance, size and size distribution, morphology of emulsion and stability. The emulsion showed a narrow size distribution, well-proportioned in good agreement with polydispersity index of 0.005 and 3.6 nm diameter. The candesartan cilexetil SMEDDS were precipitated for 30 days at 25 °C or 37 °C. Meanwhile, Pharmacokinetics experiments illuminated that the candesartan cilexetil SMEDDS in rats had a larger drug curve concentration (AUC) compared to the tablets in the experiments.

This study has focused on mesoporous silica nanoparticles as a drug delivery system of insulin, which was synthesized via a hydrothermal process. The morphology and composition of the silica nanoparticles were characterized by different analytical techniques such as Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), X-Ray Diffraction Analysis (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and BrunauerEmmettTeller (BET). The percentage of drug loading and the in vitro drug release properties of the mesoporous silica nanoparticles in gastrointestinal tract were investigated in simulated gastrointestinal conditions by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. The results showed the amorphous structure of SBA-15 in mesoporous silica particles has a narrow pore size distribution. Also, particles shape was nearly wheat-like with almost homogeneous size distribution. Furthermore, it was revealed that the mesoporous silica nanoparticles have a high insulin loading and release capacity. These prominent behaviors make mesoporous silica nanoparticles promising material as a drug carrier for insulin delivery.

Abstract.All observed optical and infrared properties of Saturn's E-ring can be explained in terms of Mie scattering by a narrow size distribution of ice spheres of 2 - 2.5 micron diameter. The spherical shape of the ring particles and their narrow size distribution imply a molten (possibly volcanic) origin on Enceladus. The E-ring consists of many layers, possibly stratified by electrostatic levitation.

Hybrid materials based on Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles (MSN) have attracted plentiful attention due to the versatility of their chemistry, and the field of Drug Delivery Systems (DDS) is not an exception. MSN present desirable biocompatibility, high surface area values, and a well-studied surface reactivity for tailoring a vast diversity of chemical moieties. Particularly important for DDS applications is the use of external stimuli for drug release. In this context, light is an exceptional alternative due to its high degree of spatiotemporal precision and non-invasive character, and a large number of promising DDS based on photoswitchable properties of azobenzenes have been recently reported. This review covers the recent advances in design of DDS using light as an external stimulus mostly based on literature published within last years with an emphasis on usually overlooked underlying chemistry, photophysical properties, and supramolecular complexation of azobenzenes.
