OVA-csNLCs

Vaxjo ID 249       
Vaccine Adjuvant Name OVA-csNLCs       
Alternative Names Ovalbumin-loaded chitosan-modified nanostructured lipid carriers       
Adjuvant VO ID VO_0005736
Description A vaccine delivery system combining ovalbumin (OVA) as the model antigen with chitosan-coated nanostructured lipid carriers (csNLCs) to improve antigen uptake and immune activation .       
Stage of Development Research       
Host Species for Testing Mouse       
Components nanoparticles to develop a functionalized and cationic nanoparticle delivery system (OVA-csNLCs)       
Structure Nanoscale lipid core with chitosan shell; encapsulates OVA protein for controlled release and enhanced uptake .       
Preparation Formulated via high-shear homogenization and ultrasonication, followed by chitosan coating for enhanced mucoadhesion and stability .       
Function model antigen ovalbumin (OVA) was encapsulated into squalene-based nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs), and the chitosan, a cationic polysaccharide, was used for modifying nanoparticles to develop a functionalized and cationic nanoparticle delivery system (OVA-csNLCs).       
Safety Safe in mice
