Comparison Study of Nanoparticle and Cyclophosphamide Deposition in Olfactory Region between Microfluidic Device and Nasal Cavity

Fadul, Gabrielle Nicole

Abstract Details

2019, Master of Science, Miami University, Chemical, Paper and Biomedical Engineering.
Through inhalation foreign substances are able to travel into the nasal cavity through the olfactory region into the brain causing neurodegenerative diseases. Models such as microfluidic devices do not accurately represent this pathway. Therefore other models should be used to test the uptake of substances through the olfactory region. A nasal cavity model was created to test the olfactory pathway with gold nanoparticles and the chemotherapy drug Cyclophosphamide. The results were then compared to a microfluidic device.
