## Abstract The development of a novel generation of drug‐eluting stent (DES) relies upon the idea to obtain very flexible platforms able to overcome some issues associated to available devices and widen their field of application, especially to the currently emerging biotech therapeutics. Here, we
Hydrogel formation from a mixture of biocompatible chitosan, beta-glycerol phosphate, and hydroxyethyl cellulose was studied. The rheological properties of the formed hydrogels were examined using a Bohlin VOR rheometer. The effect of hydrogel composition and temperature on both the gelation rate an
## Abstract Novel composite poly(__N__‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) hydrogels, containing poly(__N__‐isopropylacrylamide)‐__block__‐poly(methyl methacrylate) (PNIPAAm‐__b__‐PMMA) micelles for sustained drug delivery were prepared and characterized. Various amounts of thermal sensitive PNIPAAm‐__b
## Abstract The preparation and characterization of surface‐PEGylated polymeric nanoparticles are described. These systems were obtained by UV irradiation of PHM and PHM‐PEG~2000~ as an inverse microemulsion, using an aqueous solution of the PHM/PHM‐PEG~2000~ copolymer mixture as the internal phase
