摘 要:Oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) were combined with the biodegradable polymer chitosan to form chitosan-ODN nanoparticles by complex coacervation, in order to improve the sta-bility and intracellular penetration. The diameter of the nanoparticles was light strength size and ranged between 60 and 219 nm with a mean value of 132 nm, while zeta potential was between +12 and +20 mV at pH 5.5. The chitosan-ODN nanoparticles could partially protect the encapsulated ODN from nuclease degradation. Moreover, chitosan-ODN nanoparticles were much more effective in inhibiting the proliferation of M.tuberculosis than free ODN.
