A Method and Process for the Efficacy Enhancement of Activities of Bioflavonoids
Application number: 201741001089
Abstract: The clinical use of Bioflavonoids was restricted because of their poor water solubility. In this regard, we have synthesized the Bioflavonoid nanoparticle by covalently conjugating folic acid with chitosan molecules (as a carrier) through the γ-carboxyl moiety. In addition, this process allows the bioflavonoid to actively target the cancer cells by targeting the Folate receptors that is over expressed in various cancer cells.
