Enhanced anticancer effect of lysozyme-functionalized metformin-loaded shellac nanoparticles on a 3D cell model: role of the nanoparticle and payload concentrations (2024)
Journal Article
Wang, A., Madden, L. A., & Paunov, V. N. (online). Enhanced anticancer effect of lysozyme-functionalized metformin-loaded shellac nanoparticles on a 3D cell model: role of the nanoparticle and payload concentrations. Biomaterials science / Royal Society of Chemistry, https://doi.org/10.1039/d4bm00692e

Here we used a 3D human hepatic tumour cell culture model to assess the in vitro efficacy of “active” metformin-loaded nanoparticles (NPs) as anticancer therapeutics. The metformin nanocarrier design was repurposed from previous studies targeting bac...

Silver Nanoparticle-Immobilized Schiff-Base Macrocycles as Nanozymes with Peroxidase Mimic Activity for Antibacterial Films (2024)
Journal Article
Wang, K., Redshaw, C., Zhao, X., Wang, A., Chen, K., & Qiao, Y. (2024). Silver Nanoparticle-Immobilized Schiff-Base Macrocycles as Nanozymes with Peroxidase Mimic Activity for Antibacterial Films. ACS Applied Nano Materials, 7(14), 16274–16282. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsanm.4c02258

The development of nanozymes has emerged as a promising pathway for combating bacterial infections. In this work, Ag/Schiff base nanozymes are obtained through the in situ reduction method on [2 + 3] Schiff base macrocycles using eco-friendly reducta...
