Synthesis and Characterization of Chitosan-Saponin Nanoparticle for Application in Plasmid DNA Delivery
Nonviral delivery system receives attention over the last decade. Chitosan (CS) is a cationic polymer whereas saponin (SP) is classified as glycoside. In this study, a spherically-shaped CS-SP nanoparticle was synthesized and characterized. The ability of the nanoparticle to protect DNA from enzymat...
