چکیده
Incorporation of orthogonal functional groups into biodegradable polymers permits the fabrication of multi-layered thin films with improved adhesion and tunable degradation profiles. The bi-layer structure also allows for accurate control over small molecule release.

Biodegradable, multi-layered coatings for controlled release of small moleculesw
The design of biocompatible polymers and materials with multiple functional groups is a true challenge for synthetic chemists. These materials have to fulfil numerous criteria: they should possess multiple functions for attachment of biomolecules, control of surface properties, etc. while at the same time meeting strict performance requirements for biocompatibility, biodegradation, adhesion, fl...

متن کاملMultimonth controlled small molecule release from biodegradable thin films.
Long-term, localized delivery of small molecules from a biodegradable thin film is challenging owing to their low molecular weight and poor charge density. Accomplishing highly extended controlled release can facilitate high therapeutic levels in specific regions of the body while significantly reducing the toxicity to vital organs typically caused by systemic administration and decreasing the ...
متن کاملInvestigating the Release of Methotrexate and 5-Fluorouracil Anticancer Drugs from Multi-Layered Nanofiber Structure of Polycaprolactone/Chitosan
In this study, seven-layer nanofiber structures consisting of polycaprolactone/ chitosan polymers loaded with methotrexate and 5-fluorouracil anti-cancer drugs, for controlled drug delivery, were produced and evaluated. For this purpose, the second, fourth and sixth layers were loaded with drug and placed between the drug-free layers. The surface morphology of drug-free and drug-loaded nanofibe...
