Alginate/chitosan micro- and nanoparticles
for protein mucosal delivery
Abstract
Layer-by-layer adsorption and ionotropic
gelation methods were used for insulin, aprotinin and interferon entrapment to
alginate/chitosan matrices. Protein encapsulation efficacy, particles size and ζ-potential, mucin binding and protein release in physiological
conditions were studied and discussed with regard to their further possible
mucoadhesive administration.
Key words: alginate, chitosan, protein encapsulation,
ionotropic galation, layer-by-layer adsorption, mucoadhesive drug delivery
systems.
