Curcumin associated poly(allylamine hydrochloride) crosslinks with dipotassium phosphate and silica nanoparticles to form nanocapsule that shows DPPH scavenging activity and releases curcumin triggered by pH.
Curcumin associated poly(allylamine hydrochloride) cross-links with dipotassium phosphate and subsequently is assembled with $24 nm SiO 2 nanoparticles to form hierarchically ordered nanocapsule structures, which are 100-1000 nm in size depending on the concentration of dipotassium phosphate. These structures reverse the excited state intra-molecular hydrogen transfer in curcumin depending on the size of the nanocapsules.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
