Fomulation and Delivery of Drugs for Macular Edema and Retinoblastoma; Synthesis and In Vitro Characterization of Doxorubicin Loaded Surface Modified Nanoparticles Using PLGA-PEG-PLGA Polymer
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2011-01-20)
Macular edema (ME) is caused by central extravascular swelling of the macula resulting in a significant loss of visual activity. Corticosteroids are widely used in the treatment of ME. In this project, nanoparticles of ...
Implementation of Solution and Solid Sate Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopic Techniques for Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis of Molecular Species
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2019)
In this dissertation, spectroscopy has been used to solve a variety of problems in different
domains of science. Therefore, each chapter consists of different examples that have been
addressed using different concepts ...
Cell wall metabolite levels as a function of the growth phase in Staphylococcus aureus and library screening for synergistic combinations of FDA approved drugs against methicillin resistant S. aureus
(2022)
≤ 0.5) like imipenem and biapenem were identified. Moreover, many agents showed weak synergy (0.5 < FICmin ≤ 0.75), such as nafcillin, doripenem, meropenem, and moxalactam....
Organoisocyanates: the conformational stability determination by infrared, raman and microwave spectroscopy and ab initio calculation
(University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2012)
Conformational stability studies have been carried out for several quasilinear organoisocyanates and organoisothiocyanates. The infrared and Raman spectra in the gaseous, liquid and solid phases have been recorded as well ...
Raman, Infrared and Microwave Spectra, Conformational Stability, R₀ Structural Parameters and Vibrational Assignments of Some Organoamines, Organophosphines, Alcohols And Substituted Four And Five Membered Rings
(2014)
The infrared and Raman spectra of compounds with amino, phosphours, silane and hydroxyl functional groups, as well as some with cyclic skeletal structures have been recorded of the gas and in condensed phases. Temperature ...
Light-activated biomacromolecules
(2013)
Biomacromolecules, mainly nucleic acids and proteins, are involved in
every cellular process and therefore their aberrant level or function is linked with
most of the diseases. Controlling these macromolecules using light ...
Preparation Of Oligonucleotide Delivery Agents And Insulin Depot Materials Using Solid Phase Synthesis
(2014)
Short interfering RNA (siRNA) induced RNA interference (RNAi) is capable of preventing gene translation. In a laboratory setting, various transfection methods have enabled this mechanism to be used for routine gene silencing ...
Synthesis, Characterization and In-vivo Testing of Photoactivatable Insulin Depots for Continuously Variable and Minimally Invasive Insulin Delivery
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2019)
Proteins are macromolecules involved in a diverse array of functions. Mutations or
abnormal levels of proteins are indicated in several diseases. Despite showing early
promise, the translation of protein therapeutics ...
Conformational stability of some silanes and amines from temperature dependent Infrared spectra of rare as solutions, r₀ structural parameters, ab initio calculations, and vibrational assignments
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-06-12)
The infrared (3600-40 cm-1) and Raman (3600-20 cm-1) spectra of numerous molecules containing silanes or amines have been recorded in the gas, liquid and solid phases. Additionally, variable temperature studies of the ...
Development of drug conjugates in cancer therapy and evaluation of dual siRNA silencing effect on breast cancer growth and invasion
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012)
The objective of this dissertation is to present various approaches for treatment cancer,
which is the leading cause of death worldwide. Compared to other disease, cancer has many
unique biological characteristics that ...
Conformational and Structural Investigation of Substituted Hydrocarbons and Ring Compounds by Vibrational and Microwave Spectroscopy
(2016)
The physiochemical properties of a molecule of interest are usually obtained from
its molecular structure, and it involves the orientation of one part of the molecule about a
particular bond with respect to the rest ...
Part I: Synthesis of functionalized bile acids towards the construction of steroidal macrocycles. Part II: Evaluation and expansion of a modular card game for teaching organic chemistry
(2019)
In Part I, the synthesis of chenodeoxychoic acid (CDCA) derivatives towards the construction of unique chemical architectures are reported. Building on previously described methods, CDCA based macrocycles with inner cavities ...
