The interactions of proteins and polyelectrolytes lead to diverse applications in separations,
delivery and wound repair, and are thus of interest to scientists in eg (a) glycobiology,(b) …

Background: Synthetic nanoparticles are emerging as versatile tools in biomedical
applications, particularly in the area of biomedical imaging. Nanoparticles 1–100 nm in …

The oral route has long been recognized as the most preferred route for drug delivery as it
offers high patient compliance and requires minimal expertise. Unlike small molecule drugs …

The pharmacological activity of insulin-loaded dextran sulfate/chitosan nanoparticles was
evaluated following oral dosage in diabetic rats. Nanoparticles were mucoadhesive and …

Abstract Water-soluble, biodegradable, polymeric, polyelectrolyte complex dispersions
(PECs) have evolved because of the limitations, in terms of toxicity, of the currently available …

Various types of “intelligent” self-healing anticorrosion coatings using stimuli-responsive
behaviour of polyelectrolyte/inhibitor complexes are presented. Flat nanocomposite …

Soluble coacervate nanoparticles were fabricated by mixing bovine serum albumin (BSA)
and poly-d-lysine with low (LMW-PDL) and high molecular weights (HMW-PDL). The particle …

We report the design and preparation of polyion complex (PIC) nanoparticles composed of
anionic hydrophobically modified and cationic poly (amino acid) and the effect of …

The synthesis of nanocarriers with “slippery” surface (ie, poly (lactide-co-glycolide)–
polyethylene glycol (PLGA–PEG) nanoparticles (NPs) and polyelectrolyte complexes …

Artificially sulfated polysaccharides, as the mimetics of native heparin and heparan sulfate,
are important bioactive compounds, since they show great potential for tuning crucial …
