Abstract: The current invention relates to development of new formulation containing gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with bi-functional recombinant fusion proteins TRAF(C) for the delivery of anticancer drugs and nucleic acids to HER2+ cancers. Using the combinatorial approach, we designed gold nanoparticle-based targeted drug delivery system (TDDS) or (Au-TR-DX-si) by combining AuNPs with bi-functional recombinant fusion protein TRAF(C) (TR), doxorubicin (DX) and siRNA (si). The recombinant protein based gold nanoparticles formulations are stable and homogenous as revealed by several physicochemical studies. In addition, the engineered fusion protein TRAF (C) has the ability to target selectively to HER2+ receptors overexpressed in ovarian cancer cells (SK-OV-3).

Abstract: The present invention relates to highly biocompatible or nontoxic PVP (poly(n-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) coated silver prussian blue nanoparticles (SPB-NPS: Ag3[Fe(CN)6] where PVP acts as stabilizing or capping agent. The as-synthesized nanoparticles (SPB-NPs) have been thoroughly characterized by several analytical tools. The SPB-NPs are highly stable for more than two weeks towards different physiological buffers or solutions with different pH (pH=6, ?7.4 & ?8). These nanoparticles (SPB-NPs) exhibit biocompatibility towards various normal cells (HUVEC, CHO, & ECV304) but show significant inhibition of proliferation of different cancer cells in vitro and tumor growth in C57/BL6/J mice model (aggressive murine melanoma cancer model: B16F10). Additionally, the SPB-NPs show excellent antibacterial activity towards gram-negative (E. coli) and gram-positive (B. subtilis) bacteria.

Abstract: A composite dielectric material doped with rare earth metal oxide and a manufacturing method thereof are provided. The composite dielectric material is doped with nano-crystalline rare metal oxide which is embedded in silicon dioxide glass matrix, and the composite dielectric material of the nano-crystalline rare metal oxide and the silicon dioxide glass matrix is synthesized by the manufacturing method using sol-gel route. The dielectric value of the glass composite dielectric material is greater than that of pure rare metal oxide or that of silicon dioxide. In presence of magnetic field, the dielectric value of the composite dielectric material is substantially enhanced compared with that of the composite dielectric material at zero field.
