Spring 2011
The objective of this thesis is to design nanoparticle (NP)-based drug delivery systems suitable for treatment of bone diseases. Two types of nanocarriers, (1) polymer coated bovine serum albumin (BSA) NPs and (2) lipid based NPs (micelles and liposomes) were investigated. The BSA NPs were...

Spring 2010
Coacervation is a mild process for developing protein NPs. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) NPs formed via this technique were stabilized using poly-L-Lysine (PLL); short interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA) was used as a model drug for encapsulation. Specific and non-specific degradation of these...
