Functionalization of Fe3O4 nanoparticles with biodegradable chitosan-grafted-mPEG for paclitaxel delivery

In this report, magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles were functionalized with chitosan-grafted-poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether (CTS-mPEG) for paclitaxel (PTX) delivery. The Fe3O4 nanoparticles were prepared via the chemical coprecipitation method and then coated with CTS-mPEG (Fe3O4@CTS-mPEG) by a simple...
