FORMATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF SUCCINOYL CHITOSAN PARTICLES LOADED WITH WARNERIN
Journal Title: Progress on Chemistry and Application of Chitin and its Derivatives - Year 2015, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
This study aims to obtain nanoparticles based on succinoyl chitosan loaded with Warnerin (War-SCNPs), low molecular weight cationic peptide. The nanoparticles of succinoyl chitosan (SCNPs) were prepared by salt coacervation method, and Warnerin loading efficiency on SCNPs was reached 75% in the optimum conditions, particularly, ration (SCNPs : peptide) was equal to (1.75 : 1, μg / ml ). Formed War-SCNPs were stable, had a weak electric charge from (-4.4) to (-14,6) mV. Determining of SCNPs size showed that a main fraction of SCNPs had the size of 160 nm, and after the peptide sorption War-SCNPs size increased up to 330 nm. The experimental data of this study will likely impact War-SCNPs use as therapeutic delivery systems of the peptide to be administered parenteral.

THE INFLUENCE OF CHITOSAN DEACETYLATION DEGREE ON REACTIVE BLACK 5 SORPTION EFFICIENCY FROM AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS
In the paper sorption capacity of chitosan having a deacetylation degree DD=75%, DD=85% and DD=90% relatively to the Reactive Black 5 were compared. Studies on the effectiveness of the dye sorption were carried out in a...
THE ROLE OF OLIGOCHITOSANS IN AKT KINASE REGULATION
Among characteristic properties of cancers, there is their increased glycolytic activity.Contrary to normal cells, neoplastic cells use anaerobic glycolysis, even when a sufficient amount of oxygen is available. The inte...

POTENTIAL USE OF CHITOSAN – BASED MATERIALE IN MEDICINE
Polysaccharides are macromolecular polymers that manifest ability toward the forming of fibres, film and coatings. Some of their specific properties like biodegradability and biocompatibility make them suitable for medic...
MECHANISM OF WATER DIFFUSION INTO NONCROSSLINKED AND IONICALLY CROSSLINKED CHITOSAN MEMBRANES
Ionically crosslinked chitosan membranes were prepared and their swelling behaviour was analysed. Low‑molecular pentasodium tripolyphosphate (TPP) and/or high‑molecular sodium alginate (NaAlg) were used as ionic crosslin...
