Development of novel microparticles for effective delivery of thymol and lauric acid to pig intestinal tract
(2018-08-24)
Antibiotics have been widely supplemented in feeds at sub-therapeutic concentrations to prevent post-weaning diarrhea and increase the overall productivity of pigs. However, the emergence of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria ...
Effects of a microencapsulated formula of organic acids and essential oils on nutrient absorption, immunity, gut barrier function, and abundance of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli F4 (ETEC F4) in weaned piglets challenged with ETEC F4
(2020-08)
Abstract: The objective was to study the effects of microencapsulated organic acids (OA) and essential oils (EO) on growth performance, immune system, gut barrier function, nutrient digestion and absorption, and abundance ...
Versatile surface biofunctionalization of poly(ethylene terephthalate) by interpenetrating polymerization of a butynyl monomer followed by “Click Chemistry”
(Elsevier, 2011-11-27)
Biofunctionalization of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) is crucial to its medical and biomedical
applications such as surgical drapes, vascular grafts and ligament prostheses. To furnish PET with an
alkynyl handle, ...
Surface Engineering of Poly(ethylene terephthalate) for Durable Hemocompatibility via a Surface Interpenetrating Network Technique
(Wiley, 2012-05-08)
Heparin was covalently bonded on chemically inert PET substrate using a surface modifi cation
technique–surface interpenetrating network with the purpose of fabricating long-lasting
biocompatible materials as vascular ...
Layer-by-layer assembly of epidermal growth factors on polyurethane films for wound closure
(SAGE Publishing, 2014-02-13)
To facilitate the healing of chronic wounds, growth factors such as epidermal growth factor need to be safely encapsulated
for their sustained and effective delivery to the wound bed. Using a layer-by-layer assembly ...
New Biocide with Both N -Chloramine and Quaternary Ammonium Moieties Exerts Enhanced Bactericidal Activity
(Wiley, 2012-07-03)
Considering the rise of antibiotic resistance, the development of new antibacterial
agents with improved biocidal functions is urgently required. In
this study, ionic 5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DMH) analogues containing ...
Durability of amide N-chloramine biocides to ethylene oxide sterilization
(Oxford University Press, 2012-07-01)
The objective of this work is to study the stability of three novel topical antimicrobial dressings
consisting of amide N-chloramine structures against ethylene oxide sterilization. Cotton gauze
samples bonded with one ...
