Research Abstract |
Polyion complex(PIC) nanoparticles composed of anionic hydrophobically modified and cationic poly(amino acid) were prepared using electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions between the two polymers. The prepared PIC nanoparticles showed high stability for a prolonged period of time under physiological conditions. The improved stability of the PIC nanoparticles was attributed to the formation of hydrophobic domains in the core of the nanoparticles. Moreover, the function of the PIC nanoparticles as a protein carrier was demonstrated.
