Nanopharmaceuticals Materials Quiz

Organic nanoparticles have hydrophobic cores and hydrophilic surfaces due to the surfactant.

Polymeric nanoparticles are composed of highly ordered, monodispersed, branched 3D polymeric molecules.

Dendrimers are nano-sized colloidal particles with a hydrophobic core and hydrophilic shell.

The double emulsion technique allows for hydrophobic core particles to be created.

Polymer-drug conjugates are more sensitive to efflux pumps compared to free drugs.

The networks composed of hydrophilic or amphiphilic polymer chains can be achieved through copolymerization of hydrophobic monomers.

Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) is a type of silica nanoparticle.

Mesoporous silica nanoparticles have a pore size ranging from 5-20 nm.

The shape of silica nanoparticles has no effect on their blood circulation and cell penetration behavior.

Silica nanoparticles are not compatible in biological systems.

Nanorods penetrate tumor tissues more slowly than nanospheres.

The size, shape, porosity, and surface chemistry of silica nanoparticles are uncontrollable.

The main objective of the text is to discuss the use of nanomaterials in pharmaceutics.

Nanomaterials are used for target therapy but not for biomarker mapping.

The text cites a specific study on the use of nanoparticles for protein corona profiling.

Nanomaterials are only used for drug delivery and detection in pharmaceutics.

The text provides an overview of the different structures of nanomedicines and their approximate sizes.

Prosciento is a company that specializes in nanoparticle development for pharmaceutics.

The American Chemical Society holds the copyright for the SEM images of UiO-66 NPs.

The concentration of dodecanoic acid modulator affects the shape of HKUST-1 NPs.

DNA has five different bases.

The term 'origami' refers to the folding of plain sheet into a specific dimension.

The specificity of the interactions between complementary base pairs makes DNA a useful construction material.

UiO-66 NPs decrease in size as the acetic acid modulator concentration increases.

The EPR effect is caused by larger pore sizes between adjacent vascular endothelial cells in angiogenic tumor vessels.

Passive targeting in nanoparticle therapy solely relies on the EPR effect.

Conventional drug delivery methods have cytotoxicity, while drug delivery using nanotechnologies does not.

Active targeting in nanoparticle therapy enhances the targeting effect and promotes cellular uptake.

The main advantage of nanotechnology-based drug delivery is its ability to optimize pharmacokinetics and biodistribution.

Nanomaterials are not applicable in pharmaceutical drug delivery.
