This manuscript describes a ultra-high loaded nanoformulation of curcumin. This compound is extremely water insoluble but could be dissolved using poly(2-oxazoline)/poly(2-oxazine) based polymer amphiphiles. The resulting formulations were thoroughly characterized in solution and solid form by NMR, dynamic light scattering, electron microscopy, HPLC zeta potential measurements, XRD, respectively. Biological activity was ensured and compared in 2D and 3D cell culture.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
