Abstract:The results of releasing a drug in a burst are unpredictable and one of the inherent drawbacks of using nanocarriers. Here, photoresponsive cationic gold nanoparticles to stabilize diacetylenic nanocapsules enabling photoregulated release of payloads are reported. The fabrication of these nanocapsules relied on an electrostatic interaction of a negatively charged diacetylenic core and a positively charged gold nanoparticle shell. Gold nanoparticles with photoresponsive ligands on their surfaces act as both hyd… Show more
This review summarized most recent advances of designing strategies of polydiacetylene-based smart biomaterials with unique colorimetric and mechanical properties, as well as their applications in biosensing, drug delivery, and tissue engineering.
