Formation mechanism of monodisperse, low molecular weight chitosan nanoparticles by ionic gelation technique

TL;DR: In this paper, a novel method based on ionic gelation using sodium tripolyphosphate (TPP) as cross-linking agent was used to obtain monodisperse, low molecular weight (LMW) chitosan nanoparticles.
Journal Article

Formation mechanism of monodisperse, low molecular weight chitosan nanoparticles by ionic gelation technique B Biointerfaces

TL;DR: It was found that the particle size distribution of the nanoparticles could be significantly narrowed by a combination of decreasing the concentration of acetic acid and reducing the ambient temperature during cross-linking process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Highly water-soluble magnetic iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles for drug delivery: enhanced in vitro therapeutic efficacy of doxorubicin and MION conjugates

TL;DR: MIONs were conjugated with the anti-cancer drug doxorubicin and its efficacy, as a model drug delivery system, was determined using HepG2 cells and the efficiency of the drug-NP conjugates was found to be significantly higher than that of the free drug (DOX).
Journal ArticleDOI

Erythrocytes load of low molecular weight chitosan nanoparticles as a potential vascular drug delivery system.

TL;DR: The results of this study indicate that LMW chitosan nanoparticles show good compatibility with erythrocytes and they can be easily attached to the surface of ERYthrocyte membrane, suggesting that ery Throcytes load of LMWChitosans nanoparticles can be served as a potential vascular drug delivery system.
Journal ArticleDOI

PVP-templated highly luminescent copper nanoclusters for sensing trinitrophenol and living cell imaging.

TL;DR: Interestingly, the as-prepared CuNCs exhibit a good selective fluorescence quenching response towards trinitrophenol over other nitro compounds, suggesting the potential application of Cu NCs as a probe in sensing and monitoring toxic trinitropyhenol in the field of environmental security.
