How does Thermally Sensitive Liposomes Work?

Biology
1 answer:
Virty [35]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Thermosensitive liposomes (TSL) are promising tools used to deliver drugs to targeted region when local hyperthermia is applied (∼40–42°C) which triggers the membrane phase transformation from a solid gel-like state to a highly permeable liquid state. Selective lipid components have been used to in TSL formulations to increase plasma stability before hyperthermia and speed drug release rate after. Two generations of TSL technology have been developed. The traditional thermal sensitive liposomes (TTSL) have utilized DPPC and DSPC as a combination. The second generation, lysolipid thermally sensitive liposomes (LTSL) technology, has been developed with incorporation of lysolipids that form stabilized defects at phase transition temperature. LTSL maintains certain favorable attributes:

High percentage of lysolipids incorporation;

Minimum leakage for therapeutical drugs encapsulation;

Ultrafast drug release upon heating (3.5 times enhanced compared to TTSL). For example, ThermoDox, a commonly used LTSL drug for cancer, has been reported to release 100% of the encapsulated doxorubicin within 30s;

First and most successful formulation for intravascular drug release.

Golf courses make use of fertilizers to keep the grass green and healthy. Using your knowledge of osmosis, explain how applying
Nostrana [21]
Osmosis is the diffusion of water. Water tends to diffuse to the area with a higher concentration of solute. (Particles) In this case, Im assuming the fertilizer is the solute because it contains chemicals. Therefore, since water tends to diffuse to higher concentration of solute, the water in the grass will diffuse out to dilute the fertilizer on the surface of the grass. Without water, the grass will be dehydrated and shrivel up and die. Hopefully you find my answer helpful!

In the MSW landfill, what is contaminated water from wastes known as? In the MSW landfill, is contaminated water from wastes.
cupoosta [38]

Leachate

In the MSW (municipal solid waste) landfill, contaminated water from wastes is known as leachate. Leachate is the contaminated liquid (water) produced when percolating liquid, especially rainwater drains through wastes that are placed in a landfill. When the liquid enters wastes, it separates or filters out constituents from the wastes which result in the formation of leachate.
