The targeted drug delivery has been studied as one of the main methods in medicine to ensure successful treatments of diseases. Pharmaceutical sciences are using micro or nano carriers to obtain a controlled delivery of drugs, able to selectively interact with pathogens, cells or tissues. In this work, we modified bovine serum albumin (BSA) with lactose, obtaining a neoglycan (BSA-Lac). Subsequently, we synthesized glyconanoparticles (NPBSA-Lac) with the premise that it would be recognized by microbial galactose specific lectins. NPBSA-Lac were tested for bio-recognition with adhesins of E. coli K88 and Ricinus communis agglutinin I (RCA). Glycation of BSA with lactose was analyzed by electrophoresis, infrared spectroscopy and fluorescence. Approximately 41 lactoses per BSA molecule were estimated. Nanoparticles were obtained using water in oil emulsion method and spheroid morphology with a range size of 300-500 nm was observed. Specific recognition of NPBSA-Lac by RCA and E. coli K88 was displayed by aggregation of nanoparticles analyzed by dynamic light scattering and atomic force microscopy. The results indicate that the lactosylated nanovectors could be targeted at the E. coli K88 adhesin and potentially could be used as a transporter for an antibacterial drug.

The binary and ternary complex formations of poly(methyl vinyl ether-co-maleic anhydride) (PMVEMA) with copper ions and with bovine serum albumin (BSA) in the presence of copper ions in phosphate buffer solution at pH = 7 were examined by the techniques of UV-visible, fluorescence, dynamic light scattering, atomic force microscopy measurements. In the formation of binary complexes of PMVEMA-Cu(II), the addition of copper ions to the solution of PMVEMA in phosphate buffer solution at pH = 7 forms homogeneous solutions when the molar ratio of Cu(II)/MVEMA is 0.5. Then the formations of ternary complexes of PMVEMA-Cu(II)-BSA were examined. Study analysis revealed that the toxicities of polymer-metal and polymer-metal-protein mixture solutions depend on the nature and ratio of components in mixtures.
