How does Thermally Sensitive Liposomes Work?

Biology
1 answer:
Virty [35]3 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.

A light microscope that makes the specimen appear light on a dark background is called a(n) _____. compound microscope electron
AnnZ [28]

The right option is; dark-field microscope

A light microscope that makes the specimen appear light on a dark background is called a dark field microscope.

Dark field microscopes are light microscopes that are used in different ways to clearly view various specimens that are unstained, transparent, and hard to see using a light field unit. Dark field microscopes are very effective because they show the details of unstained and live samples. It is also very simple to use, and inexpensive to set up.

The scientific name of the sugar maple is Acer saccharum. What does each part of the name designate?
irinina [24]

Answer:Acer represents the genus name while

saccharum represents the species.

Explanation:

In a way to classify organisms, biologists used certain important common features to structure them into groups. The arrangement of living organisms in this hierarchy from the highest level to the lowest is as follows:

Kingdom--> phylum-->class-->order--> Family-->genus--> species.

The largest group of organisms is kingdom while species is the smallest unit of classification.

The common name of the plant used in the question above is sugar maple. Biologist, however, use a standard system to name living organisms. Each kind of organism is given two names, hence the term BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE.

--> The first name is the name of the genus to which the organism belongs.

--> The second name is the name of the species to which it belongs.

Both names are printed in italics with only the genus name having an initial capital letter. Hence, the scientific name of sugar maple is Acer saccharum( in italics).

Sheath of schwann cell containing cytoplasm and nucleus that encloses myelin. True or False
chubhunter [2.5K]

The given question is not about true/false. The correct question is:

Question: Sheath of schwann cell containing cytoplasm and nucleus that encloses myelin.......

Answer:

Neurolemma

Explanation:

Schwann cells are one of the two types of neuroglia that produce myelin sheaths. Schwann cells produce the myelin sheath in the peripheral nervous system. These cells produce the myelin sheaths around axons during fetal development. During the process, several layers of the glial plasma membrane surround the axon. The Schwann cell’s cytoplasm and nucleus form the outermost layer. On the other hand, the inner part is composed of multiple layers of Schwann cell membrane and is called the myelin sheath. The outer nucleated cytoplasmic layer of the Schwann cell that encloses the myelin sheath is called the neurolemma.
