New biocarriers, named santosomes, were formulated using Santolina insularis essential oil and hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine. They were modified by adding propylene glycol, a hydrophylic penetration enhancer, and loaded with phycocyanin, a protein found ...
The aim of this work was to formulate Santolina insularis essential oil-loaded nanocarriers, namely Penetration Enhancer containing Vesicles (PEVs), evaluate the physico-chemical features and stability, and gain insights into their ability to deliver the o ...
Anderson localization of Bogoliubov excitations is studied for disordered lattice Bose gases in planar quasi-one-dimensional geometries. The inverse localization length is computed as function of energy by a numerical transfer-matrix scheme, for strips of ...
We derive a new upper bound on the diameter of a polyhedron , where . The bound is polynomial in and the largest absolute value of a sub-determinant of , denoted by . More precisely, we show that the diameter of is bounded by . If is bounded, then we show ...
Given an integral polyhedron P subset of R-n and a rational polyhedron Q subset of R-n containing the same integer points as P, we investigate how many iterations of the Chvatal-Gomory closure operator have to be performed on Q to obtain a polyhedron conta ...
Reverse convex programming (RCP) represents an important class of global optimization problems consisting of concave cost and inequality constraint functions. While useful in many practical scenarios due to the frequent appearance of concave models, a more ...
