Synthesis and characterization of chitosan‐polycaprolactone blended with organoclay for control release of doxycycline

Abstract: In the present research program, chitosan has been mixed with polycaprolactone (PCL) (80 : 20) for using them for control delivery of doxycycline. Organoclay, Cloisite 30B of different concentrations 1, 2.5, and 5% has been blended with the composite. Chitosan is a natural biodegradable polymer where as polycaprolactone is a synthetic biopolymer. The blending of the two polymers has been carried out varying the proportion of nanoclay so that the composite can be a better drug carrier. The blends were character… Show more

“…Doxycycline is a non-charged antibiotic belonging to the tetracycline family that has recently been incorporated to chitosan composites incorporating an organoclay [115]. The only objection of these DDS systems can be related to the use of organoclays that contain toxic alkylammonium species (cationic surfactants), which can produce mild skin and respiratory irritation or anaphylactic reactions amongst other health effects.…”
