A Novel PAMAM G3 Dendrimer-Based Foam with Polyether Polyol and Castor Oil Components as Drug Delivery System into Cancer and Normal Cells.

One of the intensively developed tools for cancer therapy is drug-releasing matrices. Polyamidoamine dendrimers (PAMAM) are commonly used as nanoparticles to increase the solubility, stability and retention of drugs in the human body. Most often, drugs are encapsulated in PAMAM cavities or covalently attached to their surface.

Hardly Flammable Polyurethane Foams with 1,3-Pyrimidine Ring and Boron Atoms.

This work presents the results of research related to the determination of application possibilities of new oligoetherols with 1,3-pyrimidine rings and boron atoms in rigid polyurethane foam production. Oligoetherols were obtained from 1,3-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)uracil, boric acid, and ethylene carbonate. Their structure was determined by instrumental methods (IR, H-NMR and MALDI-ToF spectra) and the physicochemical and thermal properties were examined.
