Nanogel

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A nanogel is a nanoparticle composed of a hydrogel—a crosslinked hydrophilic polymer network. Nanogels are most often composed of synthetic polymers[1] or biopolymers which are chemically or physically crosslinked.[2] Nanogels are usually in the tens to hundreds of nanometers in diameter. Like hydrogels, nanogels have low density of macromolecules and their pores (spaces between the macromolecular chains) can be filled with small molecules or macromolecules,[3] and their properties, such as swelling, degradation, and chemical functionality, can be controlled.[4]

Applications[]

Potential applications of nanogels include drug delivery agents,[2][5][6][7] contrast agents for medical imaging or 19F MRI tracers,[8] nanoactuators, and sensors.[9]

  • Nanogels with cross-linked structure provide a versatile platform for storage and release of proteins. It is a highly desirable method of loading and delivering active forms of proteins toward cells for remaining activity, enhancing stability, and avoiding potential immunogenicity of proteins.[10]
  • Fluorine-containing nanogels can be used as tracers for 19F MRI, because their aggregation and tissue binding has only minor effect on their 19F MRI signal. Furthermore, they can carry drugs and their physico-chemical properties of the polymers can be highly modulated.[8][11][12]
  • Nanogels composed of polyethylenimine (PEI) have been used to deliver anti-cancer compounds into cells.[13][14]
  • Nanogels composed of dextran have been developed for imaging tumor-associated macrophages with radionuclides and targeting the bone.[15][16]
  • A fluorescent nanogel thermometer was developed to measure temperatures to within 0.5 °C (0.90 °F) in living cells. The cell absorbs water when colder and squeezes the water out as its internal temperature rises; the relative quantity of water masks or exposes the fluorescence of the nanogel.[17]

Nanogels are not to be confused with Nanogel aerogel, a lightweight thermal insulator, or with nanocomposite hydrogels (NC gels), which are nanomaterial-filled, hydrated, polymeric networks that exhibit higher elasticity and strength relative to traditionally made hydrogels.
