A novel composite, and research on the preparation, application and the like of the composite. The method for preparing the composite comprises: contacting a polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid, at least one cationic stabilizer, and a soluble calcium salt in a liquid reaction system, the cationic stabilizer being a water-soluble non-antibiotic amino compound having a molecular weight of less than or equal to 5 kDa, or a graft copolymer formed by a water-soluble non-antibiotic amino compound and one or more of methoxypolyethylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, polyethylenimine, folic acid, or galactose. The composite has moderate viscosity and molecular weight, is convenient to use in pharmaceutical application, has stable chemical properties, is not easy to be degraded in long-term storage, and is safe to use. The composite, if used alone, can significantly enhance the non-specific immune response of the body and achieve the purpose of preventing and treating diseases, and other drugs, and can achieve better anti-tumor, anti-viral and anti-(super) bacteria efficacy and is easily absorbed by patients, if used in combination with other drugs.

Compositions of nanolipid carrier molecules comprising PEG molecules and solid and liquid lipids wherein the PEG has a molecular weight of between about 1000 and 5000 are described. Methods of administering nanolipid carrier molecules are also described. Also described is a method for treating fungal ocular infections by topical ocular administration of nanolipid carrier molecules comprising PEG molecules and solid and liquid lipids wherein the PEG has a molecular weight of between about 1000 and 5000.

The present invention is in the field of aqueous emulsions that dry into water-insoluble or water-resistant structures that are useful for active packaging, manufactured devices and components, and other applications. The aqueous emulsions of the present invention comprise biopolymers, metal in the form of a salt, nanoparticles or metal oxide nanoparticles, essential oil, and additives such as surfactants and plasticizers. When the components of the emulsion are mixed following the distinctive method of preparation, a water-soluble fluid is obtained, which, upon drying, becomes a water-insoluble or water-resistant solid exhibiting antimicrobial, antioxidative, and other useful properties including tensile strength, elasticity, transparency. The obtained fluid may be applied by spraying, pouring, injecting, 3-D printing, or otherwise formed into a solid product of any geometrical shape including film, foil, or other 3-D shape.

An oral dissolving film containing nano- or micro-encapsulated bioactive material and methods of forming the film. The film may be prepared by dispensing a mixture of a film-forming agent, a crosslinking agent, a solution of nano- or micro-encapsulated bioactive material, and a photoinitiator into a plurality of wells in a tray using a 3D printer. The dispensed material is exposed to radiation in order to crosslink the material and form a film.
