Understanding the structural parameters of biocompatible nanoparticles dictating protein fouling
Original language description
The development of nanocarriers for biomedical applications requires that these nanocarriers have special properties, including resistance to nonspecific protein adsorption. In this study, the fouling properties of PLA- and PCL-based block copolymer nanoparticles (NPs) have been evaluated by placing them in contact with model proteins. Block copolymer NPs were produced through the self-assembly of PEOm-b-PLAn and PEOm-b-PCLn. This procedure yielded nanosized objects with distinct structural features dependent on the length of the hydrophobic and hydrophilic blocks and the volume ratio. The protein adsorption events were examined in relation to size, chain length, surface curvature, and hydrophilic chain density. Fouling by BSA and lysozyme was considerably reduced as the length of the hydrophilic PEO-stabilizing shell increases. In contrast to the case of hydrophilic polymer-grafted planar surfaces, the current investigations suggest that the hydrophilic chain density did not markedly
