Finally, the results of the in vivo studies showed the capacity of chitosan-PEG nanocapsules to enhance and prolong the intestinal absorption of salmon calcitonin.
1 context sentence(design, population, supporting numbers)
In the present work, our goal was to design a new type of nanocapsules, using chitosan chemically modified with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) (0.5% and 1% pegylation degree) and to investigate the consequences of this modification on the in vitro and in vivo behaviour of the nanocapsules.
In this study, Calcitonin-salmon was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Calcitonin-salmon.
