Abstract
Polymeric nanoparticles possess the benefits of biocompatibility and stability, and also enable the controlled release of drugs. The matrix of the nanoparticle highlights the potential for an enhancement in the stability and efficacy of encapsulated therapeutic enzymes. The oral administration of lipid-polymer nanoparticle significantly improves mucus penetration, cellular uptake, and intracellular transport. The objective of this study is to develop a highly effective lipid-polymer nanoparticle system that is capable of absorbing Papain in the intestine. Papain loaded PLGA nanoparticles and Papain loaded PLGA-phosphatidylcholine nanoparticles were identified using FTIR analysis. Drug encapsulation efficiency of Papain loaded PLGA nanoparticles was found to be 49.20% and Papain loaded PLGA-Phosphatidylcholine nanoparticles was 77.5%. The drug loading capacity was found to be 3.75% and 6.84% for the Papain loaded PLGA- nanoparticles and Papain loaded PLGA-Phosphatidylcholine nanoparticles respectively. The antibacterial activity of Papain loaded PLGA-PC nanoparticles was found to be higher as compared to PLGA-PC nanoparticle for Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli respectively. About 98% viability was observed in RAW 264.7 macrophage cells treated with the maximum concentration of 100 µg/ml of Papain-loaded PLGA-PC nanoparticles thereby depicting the biocompatibility property of the nanoparticles.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Polymers and the Environment fills the need for an international forum in this diverse and rapidly expanding field. The journal serves a crucial role for the publication of information from a wide range of disciplines and is a central outlet for the publication of high-quality peer-reviewed original papers, review articles and short communications. The journal is intentionally interdisciplinary in regard to contributions and covers the following subjects - polymers, environmentally degradable polymers, and degradation pathways: biological, photochemical, oxidative and hydrolytic; new environmental materials: derived by chemical and biosynthetic routes; environmental blends and composites; developments in processing and reactive processing of environmental polymers; characterization of environmental materials: mechanical, physical, thermal, rheological, morphological, and others; recyclable polymers and plastics recycling environmental testing: in-laboratory simulations, outdoor exposures, and standardization of methodologies; environmental fate: end products and intermediates of biodegradation; microbiology and enzymology of polymer biodegradation; solid-waste management and public legislation specific to environmental polymers; and other related topics.
