## Abstract Targeting specific sites in vivo for the delivery of therapeutic compounds presents a major obstacle to the treatment of many diseases. One targeted delivery technique that has gained prominence in recent years is the use of magnetic nanoparticles. In these systems, therapeutic compound

## Abstract Particulate drug delivery systems have become important in experimental pharmaceutics and clinical medicine. The distinction is often made between microโ and nanoparticles, being particles with dimensions best described in micrometers and nanometers respectively. That size difference en
## Abstract Carboxymethyl konjac glucomannanโchitosan (CKGMโCS) nanoparticles, which are well dispersed and stable in aqueous solution, were spontaneously prepared under very mild conditions via polyelectrolyte complexation. The physicochemical properties of the nanoparticles were identified by Zet
## Abstract In this article we describe our preliminary work involving the use of depolymerized, low molecular weight chitosan nanoparticles as carriers for proteins and peptides. We hypothesized that the molecular weight of chitosan could favorably modulate the particle and protein release charact
