Biopolymer/montmorillonite nanocomposite: preparation, drug-controlled release property and cytotoxicity

Abstract

In order to combine the advantages of a biopolymer with clay in a drug delivery system, the hot intercalation technique was used to prepare quaternized chitosan/montmorillonite (HTCC/MMT) nanocomposites. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) results revealed that HTCC chains entered into the interlayer of MMT, and the interaction between them has taken place. This is the basis of the advantage combination. Then the HTCC/MMT nanocomposites were modified to prepare the nanoparticles, whose drug-controlled release behaviours were evaluated. The results suggested that, compared to pure HTCC nanoparticles, certain montmorillonite loadings on quaternized chitosan enhanced the drug encapsulation efficiency of the nanoparticles and slowed the drug release from the nanocomposites. Finally, a study of 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) indicated that the nanocomposites are not cytotoxic. Therefore, the HTCC/MMT nanocomposites are of great potential in the biomedical field.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
