Synthesis and properties of cordycepin intercalates of Mg-Al-nitrate layered double hydroxides.

摘要

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) were investigated as cordycepin delivery nanocarriers for the first time in this study. Negatively charged biomolecule-cordycepin was intercalated in the gallery spaces of [Mg-Al-NO(3)] as the charge-compensating species, which was confirmed by the results of XRD, FT-IR, TEM, CZE and electrophoretic mobility. Cell experiment suggested that the new bio-LDH nanohybrid could prevent cordycepin decomposition by adenosine deaminase. This new formulation could possibly be used as a novel form cordycepin intravenous injection.
