Abstract
In recent years biodegradable polymers have been used as controlled protein release systems with the aim to develop a singledose vaccine. Poly(l-lactide) single crystals were prepared from a dilute solution and functionalized by surface aminolysis reaction with multifunctional amine. The E7 protein of the Human Papillomavirus 16 (HPV16) was adsorbed, as a model protein, onto aminolyzed lamellar surface to test the crystals as a suitable polymer carrier.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
