Characterization of chitosan micro-/nano-particles.
Notes: (A) Scanning electron micrograph of TPT-encapsulated Ch-P synthesized by the electrospraying technique (scale bar: 10 μm). Inset represents a higher magnification (scale bar: 2.5 μm). (B) X-ray diffraction pattern of TPT, Ch-P, and TPT-loaded Ch-P.
Abbreviations: au, arbitrary units; Ch-P, chitosan micro-/nanoparticles; PS, particle size; TPT, topotecan; ZP, zeta potential.
