Polymer Based Optoelectronics in Clinical Application Treated with Sodium Fluoride and Aqueous Dimethyl Sulfoxide Solutions
Abstract: In polymer science, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and sodium fluoride (NaF) are frequently combined to dissolve, modify, or treat particular polymers, most notably in the processing of cellulose and the creation of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes. The viscosities, ultrasonic velocities, and sodium fluoride densities of aqueous solutions of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) have been measured at T=303.15, 308.15, 313.15, and 318.15 K. Fluorides (such as NaF or TBAF) help break inter-chain hydrogen …

Organometallic Osmium Compounds in Cancer Therapy
Abstract: The exploration of organometallic complexes with osmium as potential anticancer agents was indeed an area of ongoing research. These complexes were being investigated for their unique properties and mechanisms of action against cancer cells. However, it’s essential to note that the field of scientific research is dynamic, and new findings may have emerged since then. Organometallic complexes with osmium can be designed to exhibit specific features that make them promising …

TOXICOLOGY: Present-Day Difficulties for Investigating Safety Science and Target Safety Evaluation of Major Human Hepatocytes
Abstract: Preclinical toxicology has developed into a more thorough understanding of toxicity pathways from its descriptive beginnings. Technological developments have made it possible to forecast safety occurrences, mitigate adverse effects, and create safety biomarkers. Because they are able to self-renew and specialize into different types of human body cells, stem cells are currently being employed for in vitro toxicological applications. However, as compared to primary human hepatocytes, stem cell-derived HLCs perform …

A Study on Solvent Interaction and Thermal Transport of β-Carotene
Abstract: β-carotene, a prominent compound of carrot pigments having a non-polar nature consisting of conjugated double bonds, plays a vital role in human health as a biological antioxidant and a precursor of vitamin A. In addition, it is also responsible for being a multicolored agent in various plant species and extensively employed in food colorants. This has centered attention on β-carotene nowadays. For the extraction of β-carotene, we used the most …

Polymer Chemistry in Sustained-Release Herbal Composites: Designing a Stable Euphorbia tithymaloides Topical System with Phospholipid and Polymer Matrices
Abstract: Polymer chemistry enables the stabilization and sustained release of herbal actives, critical for topical therapeutic applications. This study explores a novel process for preparing a stable, sustained-release topical composition of Euphorbia tithymaloides, leveraging polymer-based systems. Ethanolic extract (50 mg) of the plant, rich in unstable sugar moieties (e.g., D-ribose) and sterols (e.g., stigmasterol), is encapsulated within a phospholipid matrix of phosphatidylcholine (50–100 mg) and cholesterol (50–100 mg). This lipid-polymer complex, …

Polymer-Nanowire Hybrid Composites Based on PEDOT: PSS and AgNWs for High-Performance Conductive Films in Flexible Devices
Abstract: The growing demand for flexible photovoltaic and wearable optoelectronic devices has intensified research into polymer-based conductive composites that provide transparency, flexibility, and electrical efficiency. In this work, we report the fabrication and characterization of a hybrid polymer nanocomposite electrode comprising silver nanowires (AgNWs) embedded within a PEDOT:PSS matrix, deposited on flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates. The PEDOT:PSS polymer phase, modified with 5 vol% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and 0.1 vol% Zonyl …
