A combinatorial library of lipidoids was constructed and studied for in vitro gene delivery. The library of lipidoids was synthesized by reacting commercially available amines with lipophilic acrylates, acrylamides, or epoxides. Lipidoids derived from amine 86 (N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylene diamine) and amine 87 (N-(3-aminopropyl)diethaneamine) showed high efficiency in DNA delivery, some wit...

mucosa-adhesive gels can be used as a useful mean of delivering drugs to or via mucosal membranes, and in particular buccal mucosa. carbomers are among the best mucosa-adhesive materials known. the aim of this study was to compare the results obtained from the mucosa-adhesive strength of aqueous gels containing carbomers, either alone or in combination, to the data obtained from assessing the d...
