Development of PLGA nanoparticles loaded with clofazimine for oral delivery: Assessment of formulation variables and intestinal permeability
Luíse L. Chaves,Sofia A. Costa Lima,Alexandre C.C. Vieira,Luisa Barreiros,Marcela A. Segundo,Domingos Ferreira,Bruno Sarmento,Salette Reis +7 more
TL;DR: It can be concluded that the proposed NPs‐CLZ represent a promising platform to the oral delivery of CLZ as they were able to decrease its intrinsic toxicity, with improved absorption.
Development of a Screening Method for Sulfamethoxazole in Environmental Water by Digital Colorimetry Using a Mobile Device
Patricia Lisandri de Souza Peixoto,Pedro Henrique Viana de Carvalho,Ana Machado,Luisa Barreiros,Adriano A. Bordalo,Hélder P. Oliveira,Marcela A. Segundo +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper , a chemosensor for screening of sulfonamides in environmental waters, targeting sulfamethoxazole as the model analyte, was developed, based on the retention of sulfamide in disks containing polystyrene divinylbenzene sulfonated sorbent particles and reaction with p-dimethylaminocinnamaldehyde.
Photocatalytic ozonation of urban wastewater and surface water using immobilized TiO2 with LEDs: Micropollutants, antibiotic resistance genes and estrogenic activity.
Nuno F.F. Moreira,José M. Sousa,Gonçalo Macedo,Ana R. Ribeiro,Luisa Barreiros,Marta Pedrosa,Joaquim L. Faria,M. Fernando R. Pereira,Sérgio Castro-Silva,Marcela A. Segundo,Célia M. Manaia,Olga C. Nunes,Adrián M.T. Silva +12 more
TL;DR: Photocatalytic ozonation was employed for the first time in continuous mode with TiO2-coated glass Raschig rings and light emitting diodes (LEDs) to treat urban wastewater as well as surface water collected from the supply area of a drinking water treatment plant (DWTP).
Nickel ferrite nanoparticles for removal of polar pharmaceuticals from water samples with multi-purpose features
TL;DR: In this article, the removal of two widely used pharmaceuticals, namely dipyrone and diclofenac, by magnetic nickel ferrite nanoparticles was performed by using only 800 milligrams of the adsorbent at pH 5.8.
pH-sensitive nanoparticles for improved oral delivery of dapsone: risk assessment, design, optimization and characterization.
Luíse L. Chaves,Sofia A. Costa Lima,Alexandre Cc Vieira,Luisa Barreiros,Marcela A. Segundo,Domingos Ferreira,Bruno Sarmento,Salette Reis +7 more
TL;DR: In vitro release assay of NPs-EL100-DAP confirmed the nanoparticles' pH sensitivity and the ability to deliver DAP at intestinal environment, and enhanced intestinal interactions in comparison to free DAP, across Caco-2 monolayers.
