Abstract

The application of synthetic polymers for drug delivery often requires tremendous efforts to ensure biocompatibility and -degradation. To use body’s own substances, e.g. proteins, can help to overcome these problems. This thesis covers the synthesis of hollow nanocarriers entirely composed of proteins. The versatility in terms of protein choice as well as cross-linking chemistry highlights the potential impact of these systems on the field of nanoparticular drug delivery.
