Highly efficient encapsulation of curcumin into and pH-controlled drug release from poly(ε-caprolactone) nanoparticles stabilized with a novel amphiphilic hyperbranched polyglycerol
The hardly water-soluble curcumin with low bioavailability was successfully encapsulated into biodegradable polymeric particles by nanoprecipitation. By using the more hydrophobic poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) instead of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) 50:50 (PLGA) significantly increased drug load was a...
