Formulation and in-vitro release study of drug loaded liposomes for treating dry eye disease by Chua, Yan Ni

“…In addition, there is a need to also ensure a controlled release of drug in order to minimise drug toxicity which may lead to side effects in the body. In this project, we will be reporting the use of liposomal drug delivery system, to encapsulate the hydrophobic drug (Senicapoc) in its hydrophobic bilayer and aim to administer this formulation as an eye drop for the management of Dry Eye Disease (DED). …”

Effect of mangostin on the functional activity and integrity of the Plasmodium falciparum and infected and Uninfected red blood cells membrane by Ibraheem, Z.O., Majid, R.A., Noor, S.M., Farook, M.D., Basir, R.

“…This was achieved by studying its impact on the RBCs morphology, integrity and osmotic fragility. On the one hand, its effect on the plasmodium-infected cells was achieved by screening its impact on the parasite-induced new permeation pathways (NPPs) and the plasmodial invasiveness to the RBCs and these were related to its growth inhibitory effect against the parasite. …”
