Bacterial ghosts embedded in natural hydrogels as drug delivery vehicles for cancer treatment

AMAnsar MehmoodSMSadia MasoodTKTalha Farooq Khan

Key Points

  • The research aims to explore bacterial ghosts embedded in natural hydrogels as innovative drug delivery systems for cancer therapy.
  • Morphological characterization of bacterial ghosts and hydrogels
  • Structural analysis including optical profiling
  • Mechanical evaluation of hydrogel properties
  • Rhodamine 6G diffusion studies for controlled-release behavior assessment
  • Bacterial ghosts maintained structural integrity within hydrogels
  • Controlled-release behavior was observed with specific diffusion rates
  • Mechanical properties of hydrogels support effective drug delivery

Abstract

Schematic overview of the BG–NH system showing morphological characterization, structural analysis, optical profiling, mechanical evaluation, and Rhodamine 6G diffusion studies to assess structural integrity and controlled-release behavior.
