Itraconazole Loaded Poly (lactic-co-glycolic) Acid Nanoparticles for Improved Antifungal Activity

PLGA (polylactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles containing the hydrophobic antifungal Itraconazole (ITZ) were developed to address the need for more efficient means of treating fungal infections. PLGA-ITZ nanoparticles were synthesized using an oil-in-water emulsion evaporation method. The nanopart...
