Chitosan (CS), a biopolymer derived from chitin, is known for strong antifungal activity while
being biodegradable, biocompatible, and non-toxic. Because of its characteristic it has been …

The objective of this review is to summarize recent advances in chitosan nanoparticles
prepared by ionotropic gelation. Significant progress has occurred in this area since the …

This study aims to develop chitosan-coated PLGA nanoparticles intended for nose-to-brain
delivery of carmustine. Formulations were prepared by the double emulsion solvent …

Chitosan (Ch)-coated nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) have great potential for
transdermal delivery with high localization of chemotherapeutics in breast cancer. This study …

We developed an intra-articular (IA) drug delivery system to treat osteoarthritis (OA) that
consisted of kartogenin conjugated chitosan (CHI-KGN). Kartogenin, which promotes the …

Due to its poor solubility and systemic side effects, gefitinib (Gef) has limited application in
treatment of lung cancer. In this study, we used design of experiment (DOE) tools to gain the …

A major challenge associated with the oral delivery of anti-hypertensive drugs is their poor
water solubility and low oral bioavailability. Carvedilol (CAR), a potential beta-blocker is …

Curcumin-loaded chitosan nanoparticles intended for transdermal delivery were
successfully prepared, optimized and their fate, interaction and pathway through the skin …

For improving stability of fruit anthocyanins (ACN), this study investigated the use of
cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) as a macroion crosslinking agent to develop blueberry …

Chitosan-based particles are widely proposed as biocompatible drug delivery systems with
mucoadhesive and permeation enhancing properties. However, strategies on how to …
