The orange peel extract (OE) is an additive material that has been used widely as a natural antioxidant source and bioactive compounds in Pharmaceutical food sector. poor stability degradation of this were considered problems the industry. New technologies have introduced recently to prevent encapsulation.
 In work, chitosan (CS) Prunus avium gum (PG) proposed promising based materials for...

Here for the first time, we investigated the cytotoxic effects of the chitosan extracted from the Persian Gulf Chiton shell (Acanthopleura vaillantii) on liver cancer cell line (HepG2). Chitosan extraction was implemented following this method: chitin was produced by demineralization and deproteinization procedure, and the extracted chitin was converted into soluble chitosan using deacetylation...

Recently, cell-penetrating peptides have been proposed to translocate antibodies, proteins, and other molecules in targeted drug delivery. The proposed study presents the synthesis and characterization of a peptide-based chitosan nanoparticle for small interfering RNA (siRNA) delivery, in-vitro. Specifically, the synthesis included polyethylene glycol (PEG), a hydrophilic polymer, and trans-act...

Self-assembled peptide microtubes are fabricated with the biopolymer chitosan. The microtubes are covalently attached to chitosan and the morphology of the chitosan assembled on the surface of the microtubes can be tuned by altering the pH of the growth solution. Cytotoxicity studies in the presence of mouse embryonic fibroblasts indicate that the chitosan-bound microtubes are highly biocompati...

objective: amphotericin b (amb) is an ancient antifungal drug and proper for treatment of systemic fungal infection. unfortunately, this antibiotic has shown some side effects such as nephrotoxicity. therefore, recently new amb formulated has been prepared for reduced toxicity and increased effectiveness. materials and methods: amb nanocapsules prepared from polymers such as poly d, l-lactide-...

Lipid nanocapsules (LNC) based on a core-shell structure consisting of an oil-filled core with a surrounding polymer layer are known to be promising vehicles for the delivery of hydrophobic drugs in the new therapeutic strategies in anti-cancer treatments. The present work has been designed as basic research about different LNC systems. We have synthesized-and physico-chemically characterized-t...
