In vivo and in vitro mechanistic studies on targeting of lipophilic compounds to the intestinal lymphatics using lipid-based vehicles
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2005)The aim of the experiments conducted in this thesis was to investigate the effect of a range of lipid-based vehicles on the intestinal lymphatic transport of triglycerides and of two lipophilic compounds- DDT and cyclosporine, ... -
Development of novel cyclodextrins as non-viral gene delivery vectors and assessment of differentiated cell culture models to predict in vivo gene expression
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2002)The aims of this thesis were to examine the use of differentiated cell culture systems in the in vitro assessment of non-viral gene delivery systems and to investigate the use of commercial and novel cyclodextrins as vectors ... -
Factors affecting the pharmacotherapeutic management of chronic non-malignant pain in ageing and elderly populations in Ireland
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2015)Chronic non-malignant pain (CNMP) has emerged as a global health priority due to the prevalence, complexity and presentation of the condition across all age- groups, social classes and ethnicities. There is a high prevalence ... -
The use of the Caco-2 cell culture model to investigate lipid vehicle effects on lipid metabolism and drug permeation
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2004)The aim of this thesis was to assess the usefulness of the Caco-2 model for screening lipid vehicle excipient effects on intestinal lipoprotein production and secretion, with emphasis on chylomicron secretion. In addition, ... -
Use of halloysite for agrochemical applications
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2004)The focus of this thesis was to develop two products for use in agrochemical applications, using the naturally occurring microtubular mineral, halloysite. Firstly, it was necessary to obtain a highly tubular grade of the ...
