Hydrophobically Modified Chitosan Gauze for Control of Massive Hemorrhage

Increased Loading, Efficacy and Sustained Release of Silibinin, a Poorly Soluble Drug Using Hydrophobically-Modified Chitosan Nanoparticles for Enhanced Delivery of Anticancer Drug Delivery Systems

Conventional delivery of anticancer drugs is less effective due to pharmacological drawbacks such as lack of aqueous solubility and poor cellular accumulation. This study reports the increased drug loading, therapeutic delivery, and cellular accumulation of silibinin (SLB), a poorly water-soluble phenolic compound using a hydrophobically-modified chitosan nanoparticle (pCNP) system. In this stu...

Development of pH Sensitive Nanoparticles for Intestinal Drug Delivery Using Chemically Modified Guar Gum Co-Polymer

The aim of the research work was to chemically modify guar gum(GG) as a pH sensitive co-polymer and formulating intestinal targeting ESO nanoparticles (NPs) using the synthesized co-polymer. Poly acrylamide-grafted-guar gum (PAAm-g-GG) co-polymer was synthesized by free radical polymerization. Chemical modification of PAAm-g-GG by alkaline hydrolysis results in formation of a pH-sensitive co-po...

Hydrophobically-modified chitosan foam: description and hemostatic efficacy.

BACKGROUND Trauma represents a significant public health burden, and hemorrhage alone is responsible for 40% of deaths within the first 24 h after injury. Noncompressible hemorrhage accounts for the majority of hemorrhage-related deaths. Thus, materials which can arrest bleeding rapidly are necessary for improved clinical outcomes. This preliminary study evaluated several self-expanding hydroph...
