Summary: | Disclosed are nanoparticles comprising a block copolymer and optionally one or more active agent(s), compositions comprising said nanoparticles and methods of preparing said nanoparticles. The block copolymer comprises blocks (i) a first polymer that is a polyester or polyamide and (ii) a second polymer comprising a hydrocarbon chain containing ester or ether bonds with hydroxyl number 10. The active agent(s) may be present within the nanoparticles or on the surfaces of the nanoparticles. The nanoparticles may optionally be associated with a surface-modifying moiety such that they are useful as drug delivery and molecular imaging devices. The surface-modifying moiety may target the nanoparticles to a desired target, cell, tissue or biomarker. |
