Enhanced biostability of nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems by albumin corona

The long-term efficacy of nanoparticles is limited by their rapid metabolism in tissues. In this work, we aim to enhance nanoparticle biostability by preforming a bovine serum albumin (BSA) corona.A BSA corona was formed by incubating poly-3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate nanoparticles with BSA solution and confirmed by SDS-PAGE and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The impacts of the BSA corona on the drug release, biostability and...
