OBJECTIVE To develop pH-sensitive thiolated chitosan nanoparticles and evaluate the mucosal permeation effect of the nanoparticles for low molecular weight heparin. METHODS The pH-sensitive thiolated chitosan nanoparticles were prepared by ionic cross-linking reaction and characterized for the shape, particle size, Zeta potential, drug entrapment efficiency and loading capacity. In vitro release of low molecular weight heparin from the prepared nanopartieles was evaluated in 0. 1 tool · L^-1 HC1 solution and phosphate buffered saline (PBS) at pH 6. 8 using the dialysis method. The intestinal permeability was estimated utilizing Franz diffusion cell sys- tem. RESULTS The obtained nanoparticles were found to be approximately spherical with the mean particles size of (329. 6 ± 7.3 ) nm and a positive Zeta potential of (34. 5 ± 2. 25 ) mV ; the entrapment efficiency and loading capacity of the NPs were (97. 75 ± 0. 02) % and ( 12. 463 ±0. 003) u · mg^-1 , respectively. In 0. 1 tool · L^-1 HC1 solution (pH 1.0) the release rate of low molecular weight heparin within 24 h from thiolated chitosan nanoparticles was faster than that from pH-sensitive thiolated chitosan nanoparticles with a significant difference ( P 〈 0. 05 ). Whereas, in the case of release in PBS ( pH 6. 8 ), no noticeable difference was observed in the drug release be- havior between pH-sensitive and non-pH-sensitive nanoparticles. The cumulative amount of permeability on carp intestine mucosa in vitro within 8 h were (7.23±0. 21), (6. 99±0. 79), (5. 62±0. 22) and (3. 88±0. 76) u · cm^-2 for pH-sensitive thiolated chitosan nanop- articles, thiolated chitosan nanoparticles, chitosan nanoparticles and low molecular weight heparin solution, respectively. CONCLU- SION The pH-sensitive thiolated chitosan nanoparticles have a significant penetration enhancing effect for low molecule weight heparin.
