Abstract:The development of nanocarriers has been the focus of many studies designed to produce novel drug delivery systems. Thus, this study describes the development and characterization of a novel delivery system denominated as polymeric colloidal nanocarriers (PCN) made up of a maltodextrin core dispersed in a continuous phase of silicone. The developed PCN were prepared following two main consecutive steps: generation of a water-in-oil nanoemulsion using a high pressure homogenizer followed by extraction of the wa… Show more
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.
