Summary: One of the most severe health diseases affecting mankind is cancer. Treatment methods such as magnetic hyperthermia, chemotherapy, photothermal therapy, and MRI-traced cancer drug delivery system have been available. However, chemotherapy alone has not proven to be completely satisfactory due to the development of tumor resistance. Dendrimers, specifically polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers, have become the most important and powerful drug carriers in anticancer applications, especially when combined with nanomaterials.

Summary: The surface properties of PET were modified using low-temperature plasma to facilitate the inkjet printing of capacitive electrode sensors for PAH detection. The plasma treatment improved the adhesion of printed AgNI on PET and increased the surface hydrophilicity, as evidenced by the decrease in water contact angle. XPS and AFM were used to assess the surface chemistry and nanoscale roughness of PET, respectively.

Summary: The paper surface functionalization with PAMAM dendrimers enhanced the sensitivity of protein analysis using paper spray mass spectrometry (PS-MS). PAMAM could electrostatically interact with negatively charged residues on the protein surface and also form hydrogen bonds with protein surface oxygens, making it a useful material for protein extraction. Experimental results showed that PAMAM-functionalized paper substrates exhibited higher sensitivity for albumin, hemoglobin, insulin, and lysozyme compared to unmodified paper strips.

Summary: Polyurea microcapsules containing oxyfluorfen herbicide were synthesized using interfacial polymerization reaction, with varying core to shell ratios and emulsifying agents. The study found that encapsulation efficiency decreased with increasing core to shell ratio, release kinetics were influenced by stirring rate and medium pH, and particle size distribution was affected by agitation speed. Different molecular weight Kraft lignins were used, showing slow release with high molecular weight lignin. Safety study on paddy crop indicated these capsules were safe for use compared to commercially available oxyfluorfen.

Summary: Dendrimers serve as versatile tools for delivery of nucleic acids, drugs, and vaccines for different diseases through various administration routes by enhancing systemic blood circulation time, biocompatibility, and reducing toxicity. Non-covalent interactions improve drug solubility, while electrostatic interactions with charged molecules encourage endosomal escape. Covalent associations through physiologically labile bonds or cleavable linkers enable controlled release and targeted delivery of therapeutic moieties.
