Synthesis and Characterization of Oil-Chitosan Composite Spheres

Synthesis and Characterization of Oil-Chitosan Composite Spheres

Oil-chitosan composite spheres were synthesized by encapsulation of sunflower seed oil in chitosan droplets, dropping into NaOH solution and in situ solidification. Hydrophilic materials (i.e., iron oxide nanoparticles) and lipophilic materials (i.e., rhodamine B or epirubicin) could be encapsulated...
