Investigating the effect of femtosecond laser pulses on noscapine and curcumin cellular uptake and improving drug delivery in gastric cancer cells.

The MKN45 cell line, a type of gastric cancer cell, exhibits resistance to chemotherapy agents through various mechanisms. Curcumin and noscapine, two plant-derived anticancer compounds, exhibit selective cytotoxicity towards cancer cells. However, their bioavailability is poor both in vitro and in vivo.

Berberine-loaded nanoemulsions as a natural food preservative; the impact of femtosecond laser irradiation on the antibacterial activity.

There is a growing concern among food safety regulators, the food industry, and consumers about foodborne illnesses. To improve food safety and increase shelf life, it is necessary to use natural preservatives. Natural antimicrobials are safer than artificial preservatives because they can prevent microbial resistance while also meeting consumers' demands for healthier food.
