PROTEIN DELIVERY BY NANOPARTICLES FORMED BY CHITOSAN-N-ACYL DERIVATIVES
Journal Title: Progress on Chemistry and Application of Chitin and its Derivatives - Year 2011, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
Biodegradable nanoparticulated carriers have important potential applications for administration of therapeutic proteins and peptides. Chitosan based nanoparticles have attracted attention due to their biological properties such as biodegrability and biocompatibility. However, chitosan nanoparticles are not stable in colloid form. Therefore, to increase the stability of these particles is an important problem. The aim of this work was to obtain stable nanoparticles formed by N-acyl derivatives of chitosan by ionic gelation and to investigate their ability to interact with acidic, neutral and basic proteins.
