Natural deep eutectic solvent supported targeted solid-liquid polymer carrier for breast cancer therapy.

Solid-liquid nanocarriers (SLNs) are at the front of the rapidly emerging field of medicinal applications with a potential role in the delivery of bioactive agents. Here, we report a new SLN of natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES) and biotin-conjugated lysine-polyethylene glycol copolymer. The SLN system was analyzed for its functional groups, thermal stability, crystalline nature, particle size, and surface morphology through the instrumental analysis of FT-IR, TGA, XRD, DLS, SEM, and TEM.

Deep Eutectic Solvent-Mediated FA--β-Alanine--PCL Drug Carrier for Sustainable and Site-Specific Drug Delivery.

An amphiphilic polymer that consisted of a deep eutectic solvent (DES)-mediated drug carrier was designed, where the DES influenced the formation of folic acid (FA)-tagged -β-alanine--PCL polymer (DES@FA--β-alanine--PCL); the nature of the carrier was investigated through emission analysis and pyrene used as a model probe (CMC = 0.4 mg/mL). The amphiphilic polymer was self-assembled into a sphere (≈204 nm diameter) with a surface charge of -3 ± 0.

Assembling of multifunctional latex-based hybrid nanocarriers from Calotropis gigantea for sustained (doxorubicin) DOX releases.

Natural rubber Latex (Lax) is a colloidal dispersion of polymer particles in liquid and shows good biodegradable, biocompatibility, and non-toxicity. Natural polymers are the most important materials used in food packaging, micro/nano-drug delivery, tissue engineering, agriculture, and coating. In the present study, natural compounds extracted from plant Lax were designed to function as drug carriers using various surfactants via emulation and solvent evaporation method.
