Polymer nanoparticles composed with gallic acid grafted chitosan and bioactive peptides combined antioxidant, anticancer activities and improved delivery property for labile polyphenols
Polymer nanoparticles assembled from gallic acid (GA) grafted chitosan (CS, GA-g-CS for GA grafted CS) and caseinophosphopeptides (CPP) were developed to deliver (−)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) as novel functional foods. The contents of GA in GA-g-CS copolymers were in the range of 26.5 ± 1.0–...
