• A comparative biodistribution study of polymeric and lipid-based nanoparticles 

      Åslund, Andreas; Vandebriel, Rob J.; Caputo, Fanny; de Jong, Wim H.; Delmaar, Christiaan; Hyldbakk, Astrid; Rustique, Emilie; Schmid, Ruth Baumberger; Snipstad, Sofie; Texier, Isabelle; Vernstad, Kai; Borgos, Sven Even F. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Biodistribution of nanoencapsulated bioactive compounds is primarily determined by the size, shape, chemical composition and surface properties of the encapsulating nanoparticle, and, thus, less dependent on the physicochemical ...
    • Identification of novel cyanoacrylate monomers for use in nanoparticle drug delivery systems prepared by miniemulsion polymerisation – A multistep screening approach 

      Hyldbakk, Astrid; Mørch, Ýrr Asbjørg; Snipstad, Sofie; Åslund, Andreas; Klinkenberg, Geir; Nakstad, Vu; Wågbø, Ane Marit; Schmid, Ruth Baumberger; Molesworth, Peter Patrick (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Poly (alkyl cyanoacrylate) (PACA) polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) are promising drug carriers in drug delivery. However, the selection of commercially available alkyl cyanoacrylate (ACA) monomers is limited, because most ...

M.; Finnilä, Mikko; Saarakkala, Simo; Haaparanta, Anne Marie; Janssen, Lauriane; Lorite, Gabriela S. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      The demand for engineered scaffolds capable of delivering multiple cues to cells continues to grow as the interplay between cell fate with microenvironmental and external cues is revealed. Emphasis has been given to develop ...
    • Subcellular detection of PEBCA particles in macrophages: combining darkfield microscopy, confocal Raman microscopy, and ToF-SIMS analysis 

      Vennemann, Antje; Breitenstein, Daniel; Tallarek, Elke; Mørch, Ýrr Asbjørg; Schmid, Ruth Baumberger; Wiemann, Martin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      The detection of biomedical organic nanocarriers in cells and tissues is still an experimental challenge. Here we developed an imaging strategy for the label-free detection of poly (ethylbutyl cyanoacrylate) (PEBCA) ...
