Chitosan nanoparticles (CS NP) with various formations were produced based on ionic gelation process of tripolyphosphate (TPP) and chitosan. They were examined with diameter 20-200 nm and spherical shape using TEM. FTIR confirmed tripolyphosphoric groups of TPP linked with ammonium groups of chitosan in the nanoparticles. Factors affecting delivery properties of bovine serum albumin (BSA) as model protein have been tested, they included molecular weight (Mw) and deacetylation degree (DD) of chitosan, the concentration of chitosan and initial BSA, and the presence of polyethylene glycol (PEG) in encapsulation medium. Increasing Mws of chitosan from 10 to 210 kDa, BSA encapsulation efficiency was enhanced about two times, BSA total release in PBS (phosphate buffer saline) pH 7.4 in 8 days was reduced from 73.9 to 17.6%. Increasing DD from 75.5 to 92% promoted slightly the encapsulation efficiency and decelerated the release rate. The encapsulation efficiency was highly decreased by increase of initial BSA and chitosan concentration; higher loading capacity of BSA speeded the BSA release from the nanoparticles. Adding PEG hindered the BSA encapsulation and accelerated the release rate. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
