The molecular mechanisms of diabetes mediated impaired wound healing and the development of therapeutic strategies. (2011)
Thesis
GADAD, P.C. 2011. The molecular mechanisms of diabetes mediated impaired wound healing and the development of therapeutic strategies. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis.

Increased levels of blood glucose are associated with the vascular complications of diabetes. Microvascular complications lead to delayed wound healing in patients suffering from diabetes. Hypoxia and hyperglycaemia characterise a wound environment o... Read More about The molecular mechanisms of diabetes mediated impaired wound healing and the development of therapeutic strategies..

Development and evaluation of oral solid dosage forms for colonic delivery of drugs for the treatment of cystinosis. (2010)
Thesis
IBIE, C.O. 2010. Development and evaluation of oral solid dosage forms for colonic delivery of drugs for the treatment of cystinosis. Robert Gordon University, MRes thesis.

Modified-release multiparticulate pellets have been produced by the process of extrusion and spheronisation for colon-targeted delivery of cystamine, a cysteamine derivative. Orally-ingested cysteamine formulations, used in the treatment of cystinosi...
