Nasal delivery of peptides using powder carriers based on starch/poly(acrylic acid)
As peptides are not suitable for oral administration, they are generally administered parenterally. Due to the disadvantages associated with parenteral delivery alternative routes of administration (buccal, nasal, pulmonal, ocular, transdermal, rectal and vaginal route) have been investigated. In …

Synthesis and characterization of crystalline assembly of poly Nisopropylacry-lamide)-co-acrylic acid nanoparticles.
… study, crystalline poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) (PNIPAm-co-AAc) nanoparticle network in organic solvents was obtained by self assembling precursor particles in acetone/epichlorohydrin mixture at room temperature followed by inter-sphere crosslinking at ~98 °C. The crystals thus …

Micelles and Interpolyelectrolyte Complexes formed by Polyisobutylene-block-Poly([meth]acrylic acid) - Synthesis of Polymers and Characterization in Aqueous Solutions
In this work PIB-b-PMAA copolymers with low PDI were studied, which self-assemble in aqueous solutions. A wide range of hydrophobic and hydrophilic block lengths were synthesized via combination of cationic an anionic polymerization. The data we have obtained by means of SANS and DLS point to an …

Synthesis and Applications of Novel Responsive Materials
… (PC). This hydrogel contained a small amount of acrylic acid which, when polymerized into the hydrogel, caused an expansion of the hydrogel due to electrostatic repulsion when the pH of the solution was raised above the pKa of the acrylic acid group. The hydrogel was covalently linked to surface …
