Chitosan nanoparticles have recently been developed for peptides, proteins, and nucleic acid delivery. This book introduces chitosan nanoparticles in the broadest scale possible by showing their optical/chemical characterization with their applicability illustrating different method of preparation and applications.



Their potential for the delivery of drugs at the ocular level was investigated. This is not a straight textbook but a guided tour of the different form of chitosan nanoparticles which we hope will arouse the reader’s curiosity so that they will engage more profoundly with the subject.
