Cyclodextrins (CDs) have beneficial characteristics for drug delivery, including hydrophobic interior surfaces. Nanocarriers with <i>β</i>-CD ligands have been prepared with simple surface modifications as drug delivery vehicles. In this study, we synthesized <i>β</i>-CD derivatives on an Ag-embedded silica nanoparticle (NP) (SiO₂@Ag NP) structure to load and release doxorubicin (DOX). Cysteinyl-<i>β</i>-CD and ethylenediamine-<i>β</i>-CD (EDA-<i>β</i>-CD) were immobilized on the surface of SiO₂ ...[more]
