Evaluation of Carboxymethyl-Hexanoyl Chitosan as a Protein Nanocarrier

Carboxymethyl‐hexanoyl chitosan (CHC) has the ability to self‐assemble into nanocapsules in an aqueous solution and it has recently shown potential in numerous biomedical applications. Here we investigate the protein loading efficiency and release, as well as the structural properties of CHC protein...
