Disadvantages of Liposome-Based Anti-Tumor Drug Delivery
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper discussing problems associated with using liposome-based molecules as drug delivery vehicles for tumor-inhibiting compounds Recombinatory chemistry has given great hope for highly targeted and specific drugs that will attach to only specific sites on other molecules. The eventual goal is to deliver highly specific drugs to tumors with no side effects other than those directly attributable to the shrinkage and subsequent death of the tumor, but the problems associated with liposome-based delivery systems would seem to indicate that there is another solution waiting to be discovered. Bibliography lists 13 sources.

Discovery Of The Electron
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. An historic marvel occurred at the turn of the nineteenth century that would once again bring man a better understanding of the world around him. J.J. Thomson's discovery of the electron originated when he found that cathode rays were negatively charged particles, a breakthrough he termed corpuscles, noting how their size was approximately one thousand times smaller than hydrogen atoms. The British physicist further claimed that atomic existence was integrally based upon the existence of these corpuscles, a fact he boldly addressed in 1897. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Dow Chemical Company’s Focus on the Triple Bottom Line
[ send me this paper ]
A 21 page paper discussing Dow Chemical’s approach to responsible behavior. The common view of behaving responsibly is that such behavior is admirable but is not cost effective. Dow Chemical officially takes the opposite view. As a matter of corporate policy, Dow Chemical conducts its business within the framework provided by the Triple Bottom Line (TBL) business model that addresses not on the financial bottom line, but also those areas of corporate social responsibility and long-term sustainability. In cost issues, Dow’s perspective that avoidance of the unnecessary costs of cleanup or damage control in the long run is more costly than is avoiding these problems completely. The paper uses Dow’s response to the phase-out of 1,1,1 trichloroethane with creating responsible new business opportunities designed to identify and create alternatives. The paper also discusses regression analysis and cost-benefit analysis theory. Bibliography lists 12 sources.
