Negli ultimi 40 anni l’acido poli (D,L-lattico-co-glicolico) (PLGA) ha ricevuto un importante interesse grazie alle sue vantaggiose proprietà, tra cui: biocompatibilità umana, biodegrabilità e l’approvazione da parte della Food and Drug Administration (FDA) e della European Medicines Agency (EMA) come sistemi di rilascio del farmaco (drug delivery system) e dispositivi medici per uso umano. Il PAH, poli(allilamine idrocloridrato) è un polielettrolita cationico che , anch’esso, presenta biocompatibilità. In questo lavoro, sono state preparate nanoparticelle con il meodo della nanoprecipitazione e in seguito rivestite con PAH. Il rivestimento è stato eseguito sfruttando le interazioni elettrostatiche, al giusto valore di pH tra PLGA anionico e PAH cationico; inoltre è stato sviluppato affinche, da nanosistema idrofilico si arrivasse ad un nanosistema idrofobico . Dopo la preparazione è stato eseguito uno studio comparativo delle caratteristiche e della stabilità in sospensione dei due tipi di nanoparticelle: quelle di PLGA e quelle di PLGA rivestite con PAH. Per di più, è stata esaminata la stabilità biologicà colloidale delle due formulazioni. I risultati suggeriscono il successo del rivestimento dello strato esterno di PLGA. Le nanoparticelle ottimizzate di PLGA rivestite con PAH presentano una misura idrodinamica di 177.5 ± 25.3 nm, un PDI di 0,24 e un alto zeta potential di +39.3 ± 9.6 mV mettendo alla luce una nanosospensione stabile. Oltretutto presentano un insignificante tossicità per COS-7 cellule di fibroblasto.

Abstract
For the last 40 years poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) have gain considerable interest due to its advantageous properties such as its human biocompatibility, its biodegradability and its approval by United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency (EMA) for human use in drug delivery systems and medical devices. Poly (allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) is a cationic polyelectrolyte that, like PLGA, presents biocompatibility. In this work, PLGA nanoparticles were prepared by nanoprecipitation followed by deposition of a PAH coat. The coating took advantage of electrostatic interactions at the right pH value between anionic PLGA and cationic PAH and was design as an effort to turn hydrophilic a former hydrophobic nanosystem. A comparative study of the physicochemical characteristics and of the stability in suspension of both uncoated and PAH coated PLGA nanoparticles was performed after preparation. Moreover, biological colloidal stability of the two formulations was assessed. Results suggested the successful coating of the PLGA core. The optimized PAH coated PLGA nanoparticles presented a hydrodynamic size of 177.5 ± 25.3 nm, a PDI of 0.24 and a high zeta potential of +39.3 ± 9.6 mV allowing for a stable nanosuspension.
