Chitosan-based nanoparticles have demonstrated a growing potential for use in drug delivery systems due to their remarkable versatility. To enhance the effectiveness of chitosan-based stimulus-responsive cancer delivery, novel pH-sensitive semi-interpenetrating networks (semi-IPN) chitosan-poly(1-vinyl imidazole) (CS-PVIm) and Chitosan-poly(methacrylic-acid) (CS-PMAA) were synthesized through free radical polymerization. The semi-IPN analyzed evaluate suitability as carriers. SEM analysis revealed that spherical within nanoscale size range. average particle measured by DLS CS-PMAA was 107.9 nm without 175.2 after encapsulation. CS-PVIm-nanoparticles had an 138.32 which increased 165.84 loading. ATR-FTIR confirmed formation CS-PVIm nanoparticles. Cytotoxicity showed are biocompatibility demonstrating over 95% cell survival HeLa lines. Further, Doxorubicin-hydrochloride (Dox) loaded exhibited sustained release caused protonation deprotonation functional groups based on pH change. encapsulation efficiency (EE) 57 % whereas EE CS-PMAA-nanoparticles 52% respectively. This research presents straightforward method producing intelligent pH-responsive semi-IPN-nanoparticles tailored anticancer delivery.
