Efficiency of Azithromycin-Loaded Lipid Polymer Hybrid Nano-vehicle as a Repurposing formulation in Colon Cancer Management by Tarraf, Vanessa

“…The results displayed Nano metric size range for azithromycin-loaded uncoated and coated liposomes of values 65.5± 2.83 nm and 73.53 ± 2.01 nm, respectively with uni-modal particle size distribution with PDI less than 0.3. The shifting of the negative charge (-17.22± 5.99 mV) of the uncoated liposomes to the positive charge (13.17± 3.34 mV) of the coated one approved the success of the coating. …”

Open carbon frameworks - a search for optimal geometry for hydrogen storage by Kuchta, Bogdan

“…From an analysis of an analytical model and simulations of adsorption the physical limits of hydrogen adsorption have been defined: (i) higher storage capacities in slit-shaped pores can be obtained by fragmentation/truncation of graphene sheets into nano-metric elements which creates surface areas in excess of 2600 m2/g, the surface area for infinite graphene sheets; (ii) the positive influence of increasing surface area is compensated by the decreasing energy of adsorption in the carbon scaffolds of nano-metric sizes; (iii) for open carbon frameworks (OCF) built from coronene and benzene molecules with surface areas 6500 m2 g-1, we find an impressive excess adsorption of 75–110 g H2/kg C at 77 K, and high storage capacity of 110–150 g H2/kg C at 77 K and 100 bar; (iv) the new OCF, if synthesized and optimized, could lead to required hydrogen storage capacity for mobile applications.…”
