3D Reconstruction of Tubular Structures Using MRI Projection Images
… Gd-based contrast agent embedded into a lipid matrix. The object is reconstructed from three mutually orthogonal projections of the volume that contain the structure of interest. The projected structures of the object were segmented out on each projection, back-projected to generate the …

Theranostic applications of fluorescent liquid crystalline nanoparticles
Lipid liquid crystalline nanoparticles can find application as nanocarriers in several fields of the daily life but, very likely, the pharmaceutical arena is the most relevant. Indeed, several problems encountered in drugs administration (e.g. critical sideeffects from antitumor drugs) require …

Thermo-activated drug release.
… this thesis, it is postulated that a magnetite/lipid formulation stimulated by alternating magnetic fields can be adapted for use as a thermal-activated delivery system to achieve the desired dose and temporal control of drug release. To test this hypothesis, the following specific aims were …

Nutrient-based strategies to enhance docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) utilization in the piglet brain
… the goal of this study was to compare dietary lipid matrices found in infant formula and maternal milk on post-natal neurodevelopmental patterns. Over a 25-day feeding study, piglets (n=9-10 per treatment, 1.5 ± 0.2 kg initial BW) were either sow-reared (SR) with ad libitum intake, or …

TRACEABILITY OF MOUNTAIN CHEESES: IDENTIFICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF BIOCHEMICAL MARKERS
… the non-volatile minor components of the neutral lipid fraction in mountain dairy products, obtained from animals feeding on pasture, and in milk and cheese samples produced from cows under intensive breeding, fed with concentrates and silages. These neutral components were separated, by silica …

Development of solid lipid nanoparticles for sustained release of anticancer agents
A brief introduction to solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) is provided and the reasoning behind the use of SLN over other colloidal carriers, such as emulsions and liposomes, are discussed. SLN has many advantageous such as controlled drug release, non-biotoxicity of the carrier, increased …
