Effect of Nanoparticles on the Bulk Shear Viscosity of a Lung Surfactant Fluid
L. P. A. Thai, F. Mousseau, E. K. Oikonomou +2
Inhaled nanoparticles (< 100 nm) reaching the deep lung region first interact with the pulmonary surfactant, a thin lipid film lining the alveolar epithelium. To date, most biophys…
Giant Vesicles with Encapsulated Magnetic Nanowires as Versatile Carriers, Transported via Rotating and Non-Homogeneous Magnetic Fields
Mateos-Maroto Ana, Ortega Francisco, Rubio G. Ramón +2
In this work, two real-time methods to transport magnetic nanowires confined in giant hybrid vesi-cles upon the application of different strategies are studied. The microscale carr…
Design and applications of a fluorescent labeling technique for lipid and surfactant preformed vesicles
Fanny Mousseau, Jean-François Berret, Evdokia K. Oikonomou
Amphiphilic molecules such as surfactants, lipids and block copolymers can be assembled into bilayers and form vesicles. Fluorescent membrane labeling methods require the use of dy…
On the rheology of pulmonary surfactant: effects of concentration and consequences for the surfactant replacement therapy
L. P. A. Thai, F. Mousseau, E. K. Oikonomou +1
The role of pulmonary surfactant is to reduce the surface tension in the lungs and to facilitate breathing. Surfactant replacement therapy (SRT) aims at bringing a substitute by in…
A health concern regarding the protein corona, aggregation and disaggregation
Mojtaba Falahati, Farnoosh Attar, Majid Sharifi +4
Nanoparticle (NP)-protein complexes exhibit the correct identity of NP in biological media. Therefore, protein-NP interactions should be closely explored to understand and to modul…
Mono- versus multi-phosphonic acid based PEGylated polymers for functionalization and stabilization of metal (Ce, Fe, Ti, Al)oxide nanoparticles in biological media
V. Baldim, A. Graillot, N. Bia +2
For applications in nanomedicine, particles need to be functionalized to prevent protein corona formation and or aggregation. Most advanced strategies take advantage of functional…
