Abstract

A novel drug delivery system based on two of the most abundant natural biopolymers was developed by modifying the surface of oxidized cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) with chitosan oligosaccharide (CSOS). First, the primary alcohol moieties of CNC were selectively oxidized to carboxyl groups using the 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl radical catalyst. The amino groups of CSOS were then reacted with carboxylic acid groups on oxidized CNC (CNC-OX) via the carbodiimide reaction using N-hydroxysuccinimide and 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-carbodiimide as coupling agents. Successful grafting of CSOS to CNC-OX was confirmed by infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetry, potentiometric titration, and zeta potential measurements. The grafting resulted in a conversion of ~90 % carboxyl groups on CNC-OX and the degree of substitution was 0.26. CNC–CSOS nanoparticles showed a binding efficiency of 21.5 % and a drug loading of 14 % w/w. A drug selective electrode was used to directly measure the concentration of procaine hydrochloride released from CNC–CSOS particles. The in vitro drug release was studied at pH 8 and the nanoparticles revealed a fast release of up to 1 h, which can be used as biocompatible and biodegradable drug carriers for transdermal delivery applications.
