SUMMARY:Seminar - “Production of Polyglutamic Acid Nanoparticles for\nCon
 trolled Release of Anti-Cancer Drugs” by Dr. Argyrios Margaritis\,\nProf
 essor of Biochemical Engineering\, Dept. of Chemical and\nBiochemical Engi
 neering\, University of Western Ontario\, London\,ON
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT:  In this work we present results on the use of\nGamm
 a-Polyglutamic Acid (PGA) biopolymer to produce nanoparticles and\nencapsu
 late the anti-cancer drug Doxorubicin (DOX). Microbially\nproduced PGA is 
 used alone and in combination with Chitosan (CS) to\nform DOX-loaded nanop
 articles at different conditions. The main\nmechanism of nanoparticle form
 ation is the ionic complexation between\nPGA\, DOX and CS.
