| Abstract | In this study, a novel glycol chitosan-Pluronic F127 conjugate (GC-PF127) was produced by adding a carboxyl group to the end of Pluronic F127 followed by an amidation reaction between carboxylated Pluronic F127 and glycol chitosan. Because of the hydrophobic aggregation of PPO segments in Pluronic F127, GC-PF127 self-assembles into micelles in aqueous solution at room temperature. The micelles can effectively load amphiphilic doxorubicin (DOX) and partly load negatively charged protein superoxide dismutase (SOD) at neutral pH with different mechanisms, but cannot load hydrophilic 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). The respective DOX/GC-PF127, SOD/GC-PF127, and 5-FU/GC-PF127 micelle solutions can be converted to injectable supramolecular hydrogels by addition of α-CD. The strength and dissociation rate of the hydrogels can be tuned by the α-CD concentration. The hydrogel structure can recover immediately after extrusion of the hydrogel using a syringe. The hydrogels have prolonged and almost linear release behaviours for various drugs. The hydrogels release free drugs as well as drug loaded micelles via the dissociation of the hydrogels under physiological conditions, which may enhance the targeting ability and therapeutic efficiency. The released micelles sequentially release free drugs that further prolong the release of the drugs. GC-PF127 hydrogels are versatile injectable hydrogels which can deliver various drugs. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
