Carrier-mediated drug delivery has emerged as a powerful methodology for the treatment of various pathologies. The therapeutic index of traditional and novel drugs is enhanced via the increase of specificity due to targeting of drugs to a particular tissue ...
A new phosphoramidite ligand was used in the iridium-catalyzed allylic substitution reaction. This permitted high regio- and enantioselectivity on a wide variety of substrates and nucleophiles. Because of the stereospecificity of the reaction obtained by u ...
The goal of our project (HES-SO n°11246) is to develop chemometric methods that enhance the development of chemical reactions. Semi-batch experiments are performed using a fully automated chemical reactor. Real-time analytical data, infrared (IR) spectra f ...
Self-diffusion NMR spectroscopy and relaxometry have been employed to study fragrance encapsulation in water-soluble, amphiphilic star block copolymers. Diffusion coefficients of four different fragrance molecules in the free form and in the presence of th ...
The present PhD thesis deals with the high temperature polymerization of methyl methacrylate in a continuous pilot scale process. The major aim is to investigate the feasibility of a polymerization process for the production of PMMA molding compound at tem ...
Nanostructures are known to exhibit novel optical, electrical, and magnetic and many other interesting physical properties and a lot of research has been invested on the synthesis and study of such structures in the recent years. The massive drive towards ...
Accelerated bleaching, photobleaching and mineralization of the non-biodegradable azo-dye, Orange II, was obsd. with oxone in solns. with Co2+-ions. The bleaching rate of Orange II in the dark was found to follow a first-order kinetics with respect to [Co2 ...
The evolution of surface tension during polymerization of three amine-cured epoxy systems was investigated. Due to the chemical reaction of the epoxy groups with primary and secondary amines, the energetic status of an epoxyamine system increased during p ...
We present an investigation into femtosecond time-resolved vibrational sum frequency spectroscopy as a tool for studying ultrafast surface dynamics. It is demonstrated that the presence of experimentally observed new spectral features does not necessarily ...
Amphiphilic block copolymers are well established as building blocks for the preparation of micellar drug carriers. Over the past decade, the effectiveness of such self-assembled drug delivery devices has been demonstrated numerous times. This review will ...
