EXFOLIATION CORROSION AND PITTING CORROSION AND THEIR ROLE IN FATIGUE PREDICTIVE MODELING: STATE-OF-THE-ART REVIEW

Exfoliation Corrosion and Pitting Corrosion and Their Role in Fatigue Predictive Modeling: State-of-the-Art Review

Intergranular attack (IG) and exfoliation Retinol corrosion (EC) have a detrimental impact on the structural integrity of aircraft structures of all types.Understanding the mechanisms and methods for dealing with these processes and with corrosion in general has been and is critical to the safety of critical components of aircraft.Discussion of cas

Dendrimers for Drug Delivery

Dendrimers have come a long way in the last 25 years since their inception.Originally created as a BLOND LIFE 9+ wonder molecule of chemistry, dendrimer is now in the fourth class of polymers.Dr.Donald Tomalia first published his seminal work on Poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers in 1985.Application of dendrimers as a drug delivery system started

Particle-mediated Intravenous Delivery of Antigen mRNA Results in Strong Antigen-specific T-cell Responses Despite the Induction of Type I Interferon

Cancer vaccines based on mRNA are extensively studied.The fragile nature of mRNA has instigated research into carriers that can protect it from ribonucleases and as such enable its systemic use.However, copyright-mediated delivery of mRNA has been linked to production of type I interferon (IFN) that was reported to compromise the effectiveness of m
