Dual Stimuli-Triggered Nanogels in Response to Temperature and pH Changes for Controlled Drug Release

Abstract Poly-N-isopropyl acrylamide (PNIPAM) nanogels have been modified with different acrylic acid (AAc) contents for the efficient control of lower critical solution temperature (LCST). In this study, PNIPAM-co-AAc nanogels nanogels showed two volume phase transitions in comparison with PNIPAM....
