Macro-hydrogels versus nanoparticles by the controlled assembly of polysaccharides

Résumé

The controlled assembly of oppositely charged chitosan (CS, Mw33*10(3) to 600*10(3)gmol(-1)) and dextran sulfate (DS, Mw=1.3*10(6)gmol(-1)) or heparin (HP, Mw=1.8*10(4)gmol(-1)) led either to nanoparticles or macro-hydrogels, at room temperature. The control over the electrostatic attractive interactions was achieved using 2molL(-1) NaCl in the polyion solutions and subsequent dialysis to let the assembly occur. Macrohydrogels formed with an excess of polyanion. In the presence of an excess of polycation, colloidal gels were exclusively obtained. At salt concentrations lower than 1molL(-1), the spontaneous gelation provided macro-hydrogels, whatever the polyion in excess. Rheology measurements showed a similar elastic behaviour for CS-DS and CS-HP hydrogels, though CS-HP hydrogels appeared less cohesive. SAXS experiments revealed an aggregate morphology with internal and surface structure depending on the degree of acetylation (DA) of chitosan.
