A study of microparticle shape and surface chemistry effects on interactions with macrophages

Internalisation of nano- and microparticles, particularly by macrophages, is a fundamental process impacting the efficacy of particulate delivery systems. A greater understanding of how particle properties such as size, hydrophobicity, surface chemistry, surface charge, and shape influence this proc...
