Abstract :
A novel amphiphilic chitosan, O,O-dilong chain acyl chitosan (OCS), was applied to prepare self- assembled vesicles for DDS and OCS/PLLA blend for tissue engineering scaffold. The study on morphology, drug-releasing behavior of the vesicles, and the bio-experiments of OCS vesicles and OCS/PLLA blend elucidate the relative results are similar to NCS vesicles and NCS/PLLA blend.
