- "The release of nano-emodin from NE-Exos reached 30.73% nano-emodin release at pH 5.5 after 300 min, compared to 27.56% and 23.76% at pH 7.4 and 8.5, respectively, and was associated with minimal hemolysis (0.015%)." · Teymouri S et al, 2026 PubMed
- "The optimal tensile strength and elongation at break of the film reached 27.36 MPa and 76.40%, respectively." · Yang W et al, 2026 PubMed
- "In vivo anti-tumor experiments showed that ECPPMNP significantly aggregated at the tumor site and inhibited the growth of subcutaneous tumors in nude mice, and the final tumor inhibition rate reached 81.9%." · Li Z et al, 2026 PubMed
- "The flow cytometry results indicated that that rhein induced apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner, with apoptosis percentages of 15.4 ± 0.7%, 25.2 ± 2.3%, and 34.6 ± 1.8% at 25, 50, and 100 μM, respectively." · Long X et al, 2026 PubMed
- "In terms of potency I would say that it's at least 30 to 40% more potent than something like ashwagandha or a big dose of magnesium." · Lucas on "Muscle Builders, Vitamin D, Ashwagandha, GDAs & More with Lu" @ 29:01
