Now nanoparticular transport vehicles are available, which absorb active ingredients and release them at the desired location, i.e. the lungs. In particular, these are biodegradable particles, which are composed of a biologically degradable amphiphilic comb polymer, which is based on a polyol backbone with positively charged side chains. The biodegradable particles are suitable for simple and patient-friendly application, in particular for inhalative administration of pharmaceutical agents for the treatment of diseases in humans and higher mammals.<br><br>
The particles remain stable during the process of aerosol production, i.e. through nebulisation and release the agents continuously after deposition in the lungs, whereby a constant drug level is ensured. It is of particular advantage that, due to this targeted administration of pharmaceutical agents, the number of necessary inhalations can be considerably reduced.

Up to now, OLEDs have been used exclusively as a novel lighting technology for use in luminaires and lamps. However, flexible organic technology can offer much more: as an active lighting surface, it can be combined with a wide variety of materials, not just to modify but to revolutionize the functionality and design of countless existing products. To exemplify this, the Fraunhofer FEP together with the company EMDE development of light GmbH will be presenting hybrid flexible OLEDs integrated into textile designs within the EU-funded project PI-SCALE for the first time at LOPEC (March 19-21, 2019 in Munich, Germany) as examples of some of the many possible applications.
The Fraunhofer FEP, a provider of research and development services in the field of organic electronics, has long been involved in the development of...
For the first time, an international team of scientists based in Regensburg, Germany, has recorded the orbitals of single molecules in different charge states in a novel type of microscopy. The research findings are published under the title “Mapping orbital changes upon electron transfer with tunneling microscopy on insulators” in the prestigious journal “Nature”.
The building blocks of matter surrounding us are atoms and molecules. The properties of that matter, however, are often not set by these building blocks...
