PEG Conjugated Zein Nanoparticles for In Vivo Use
Zein can be utilized to form nanoscale particles for drug delivery applications. Despite the ease of synthesis, these particles often aggregate when exposed to physiologically relevant conditions (e.g., pH and salt concentrations). This instability has prevented their further development in applicat...
