Peculiarities of the micellization processes, morphology, size and stability of the developed micellar nanocarries were highlighted. It was revealed that the wide spectrum of morphological forms of such micellar carriers, such as “crew-cut” micelles, “hairy-type” micelles, “flower-like” and needle-like micelles, could be produced by variation of the absolute and relative length of both the blocks. The presence of complex “core”, which stabilized through hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions, give an opportunity of such micelles to show a high binding capability with respect to toxic and hydrophobic drugs. The application of represented micelle-type polymeric nanocontainers for encapsulation and delivery in living organisms of anticancer drugs eumelanin and doxorubicin was shown. The essential influence of a state of micellar systems, parameters of micellization process, sizes and morphology of micelles, nature and length of micellar “coronas” on drug connection was considered and disscused.","PeriodicalId":6516,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 7th International Conference Nanomaterials: Application & Properties (NAP)","volume":"80 1","pages":"04NB22-1-04NB22-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74023378","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The influence of additive noise of basic parameters allows to describe more accurately the self-consistent behavior of considered structural defects and to provide the possibility of the existence of new fragmentation modes during severe plastic deformation. The phase diagram is constructed. The conditions of simultaneous existence of two limiting structures that correspond to the regime of the phases formation with different grain sizes are found.

Phytopathogenic and non-phytopathogenic pythium in aqueous solution were supplied to the artificial membrane and left to rest for 24 h. When cellulose solutions with concentrations of 0.5∼3% were used to form the artificial membrane into which phytopathogenic pythiums penetrate and incubation time is 8–12 h, phytopathogenic pythiums appear selectively on the back surface of the cellulose film (i.e., the outside of the container) selectively. These results suggest that the artificial membrane could be a useful tool for detecting phytopathogenicity selectively from a mixture of two kinds of pythiums, namely phytopathogenic and nonphytopathogenic pythiums. We propose that this method of detecting phytopathogenic pythium can be applied to monitoring plant diseases in the agricultural industry.","PeriodicalId":6516,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 7th International Conference Nanomaterials: Application & Properties (NAP)","volume":"4 1","pages":"04NB03-1-04NB03-3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86561088","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
