A series of different β- cyclodextrin （β-CD） derivatives were incorporated into CS nanoparticles including hydroxypropyl-β- cyclodextrin （HP-β-CD）, sulphobutylether-β-cyclodextrin （SB-β-CD）, and 2,6-di-O-methy-βcyclodex- trin （DM-β-CD）. Various process parameters for nanoparticle preparation and their effects on physicochemical properties of CD/CS nanoparticles were investigated, such as the type of CD derivatives, CD and CS concentrations, the mass ratio of CS to TPP （CS/TRP）, and pH values. In the optimal condition, CDICS nanoparticles were obtained in the size range of 215-276 nm and with the zeta potential from 30.22 mV to 35.79 mY. Moreover, the stability study showed that the incorporation of CD rendered the CD/CS nanocarriers more stable than CS nanoparticles in PBS buffer at pH 6.8. For their easy preparation and adjustable parameters in nanoparticle formation as well as the diversified hydrophobic core of CD derivatives, the novel CD/CS nanoparticles developed herein might represent an interesting and versatile drug delivery platform for a variety of poorly water-soluble drugs with different physicochemical properties.展开更多
