New findings from University of Paris describe advances in drug delivery
July 4th, 2008
According to a study from Chatenay-Malabry, France, "Proteocubosomic nanocarriers are three-dimensional (3D) self-assembly periodic nanofluidic structures that have a surface topology of open nanochannels, which is apparent also in natural and self-assembled viral capsids. Here, proteins are nanoconfined in a hydrated self-assembly mixture of amphiphilic monoolein (MO) and octylglucoside (OG) forming cubosomic nanostructures." "The generated periodic 3D nanochannel network architectures are investigated by means of synchrotron X-ray diffraction. The structural behavior of the ternary MO/OG/transferrin and MO/OG immunoglobulin systems as well as the binary MO/OG mixture...
