Grafting Chitosan with Polyethylenimine in an Ionic Liquid for Efficient Gene Delivery

Modifying chitosan (CS) with polyethylenimine (PEI) grafts is an effective way to improve its gene transfection performance. However, it is still a challenge to conduct the grafting with fine control and high efficiency, particularly for the modification of water-insoluble CS. Herein, a novel method...
