IRIS Institutional Research Information System - AIR Archivio Istituzionale della Ricerca
IRIS è il sistema di gestione integrata dei dati della ricerca (persone, progetti, pubblicazioni, attività) adottato dall'Università degli Studi di Milano.
AIR nasce in UNIMI nel 2006 con lo scopo di raccogliere, documentare e conservare le informazioni sulla produzione scientifica dell'Università degli Studi di Milano e costituisce di fatto l'Anagrafe della ricerca dell'Ateneo.
EnglishPoly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) nanoparticles (NPs) represent a promising tool for effective delivery of biomacromolecules, thanks to their biodegradability and biocompatibility properties. PLGA NPs are often synthesized by emulsion-solvent evaporation method and Poly(vinyl) alcohol (PVA) represents one of the most commonly used surfactant. Although PVA-mediated synthesis of PLGA NPs is effective in tailoring NPs size and stability, the resulting negative surface charge can prevent both endosomal escape and biomacromolecules release in the cells cytosol. To overcome this limit, a novel surfactant (amino-PVA) with a cationic charge was synthesized and its potential for PLGA NPs formulation investigated. In either single (oil-in-water) or double (water-in-oil-in-water) emulsion synthesis, different mixtures of PVA and amino-PVA were studied, by monitoring their effects on NPs size and surface charge. The optimized properties were obtained by the combination of 0.975% w/v of PVA with 0.025% w/v of amino-PVA. This formulation has been further investigated for degradation properties and cytocompatibility. High stability and low cytotoxicity made the system promising for the encapsulation and release of hydrophilic drugs and biomacromolecules.
