Preparation and Characterization of Chitosan-Poly(MA-PEG400-SA) Nanoparticles as Drug Carrier

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to prepare chitosan-based nanoparticles for drug delivery, we synthesis chitosan-poly(methacryloyl polyethylene glycol succinic acid, MA-PEG400-SA) nanoparticles in aqueous solution via template polymerization. The structure of the chitosan-poly(MA-PEG400-SA) nanoparticles was characterized by FT-IR spectra, and the particles size and surface charge were analyzed by zetasizer, respectively. The average size of chitosan-poly(MA-PEG400-SA) nanoparticles was approximate 325 nm, and the surface charge was 33mv. Using hydrophilic drug 5-FU as the model drug, the drug loading efficiency was about 6%. In the further study, we will optimize the synthesis conditions and study on the drug release properties of the nanoparticles.
