Structure and Properties of Composite Fibers Based on Chitosan and Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes for Peripheral Nerve Regeneration.

This study focused on a potential application of electrically conductive, biocompatible, bioresorbable fibers for tubular conduits aimed at the regeneration of peripheral nerves. The conducting, mechanical, and biological properties of composite fibers based on chitosan and single-walled carbon nanotubes were investigated in this paper. It was shown that introducing 0.

Complexes of Glucarolactones with Water-Soluble Copolymers of N-Vinylpyrrolidone with N-Vinylamine as Inhibitors of β-Glucuronidase Efficacy.

Water-soluble complexes of N-vinylpyrrolidone/N-vinylamine copolymers with lactones of D-glucuronic acid were obtained and characterized by chromatographic, spectral, and hydrodynamic methods. The complexes efficiently inhibited the enzyme β-glucuronidase that causes the appearance of bladder tumors. The products demonstrated prolonged action and were stable during storage.
