Measuring the Acoustic Release of a Chemotherapeutic Agent from Folate-Targeted Polymeric Micelles by Abusara, Ayah Mahmoud

“…In this paper, we compare the use of Bayesian filters for the estimation of release and reencapsulation rates of a chemotherapeutic agent (namely Doxorubicin) from nanocarriers in an acoustically activated drug release system. The study is implemented using an advanced kinetic model that takes into account cavitation events causing the antineoplastic agent’s release from polymeric micelles upon exposure to ultrasound. …”
