Potential of chitosan/alginate nanoparticles as a non-viral vector for gene delivery: Formulation and optimization using D-optimal design

• Samuel Wilson

Chitosan/alginate (Chi/Alg) nanoparticles as a non-viral vector for the Smad4 encoding plasmid have been optimized using D-optimal design primarily based on the nanoparticles/plasmid ratio, Chi/Alg MW, and preparation technique sort. Following the optimization and validation of the most effective formulation, morphology research and FTIR measurements have been carried out to guage the optimized Chi/Alg/S NPs.…
