Chitosan – Polyphosphate nanoparticles for a targeted drug release at the absorption membrane

The aim of this study was to develop nanoparticles (NPs) providing a targeted drug release directly on the epithelium of the intestinal mucosa.NPs were prepared via ionic gelation between cationic chitosan (Cs) and anionic polyphosphate (PP). The resulting NPs were characterized by their size, polyd...
