Data were expressed as the mean ± standard deviation of at least three different batches of each formulation. Zeta potential measurement The zeta potential was evaluated by the electrophoretic mobility determination at the angle of 173º at 25oC. Samples were transferred to a DTS1060C cell and the measurements were performed in triplicate using ZetasizerNanoZS90 equipment (Malvern
More than 60,000 people have been killed in the ongoing drug war in Mexico. The fact that this violence has yet to reach its acme is quiet frightening.

This feedback process involved concrete experience; observations and reflections; formation of abstract concepts and generalizations; and testing implications of concepts in new situations .
