Novel Collagen Based Material for Local Drug Delivery Systems
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 February 2011
Abstract
In a search for new drug delivery matrix, the synthesis of a novel collagen material based on tiopronin protected gold clusters (MPC) as a crosslinking agent is proposed. The structure of collagen matrix modified with MPC is studied using transmission electron microscope. The thermal properties are examined with differential scanning calorimetry. To assess the biocompatibility of the matrix, the cytotoxicity assays are conducted.
