Vaccine Delivery platforms: This section covers various nanoparticle-based vaccine delivery platforms such as nanoparticles of biological (self-assembling proteins) and non-biological origin ( inorganic and polymeric). The biological nanoparticles subsection overlaps with virus-like particles that has been separately addressed. Virus-Like Parti...

Plastics manufactured from primary chemicals derived from crude oil are not completely biodegradable and environment friendly. The eco-friendliness of the plastics depends upon the ability of the plastics to degrde under specific conditions. Emissions from the plastics production and the disposal of single use plastics in to landfills is a major co...

Since the advent of stem cells reprogramming after the discovery of the differentiation factors that allow the creation of human induced pluripotent stem cells, researchers all around the world are strongly committed to develop novel methods to design and build human stem cells. Indeed, there is an increasing demand for the more efficient product...

Magnesium is the second most essential mineral and functions as a cofactor in more than 300 enzyme reactions that regulate various biochemical functions, including muscle and nerve contractions, blood glucose and blood pressure control, and protein synthesis, among others. The mineral is not only essential for maintaining healthy bone and joint he...

Vitamin E is a group of fat-soluble substances which are structurally and biologically related to the tocopherol family. Naturally, vitamin E exists in eight different forms (alpha-, beta-, delta-, and gamma- tocopherols and tocotrienols); however, alpha-tocopherols are the most used form due to their high biological activity. Although, vitamin E...
