Toward a Langmuir-monolayer-based protocol for assessing the mucoadhesion of gold nanoparticles intended for ophthalmological drug-delivery applications

This study aims to establish a Langmuir-monolayer-based protocol to assess the mucoadhesion of gold nanoparticles intended for ophthalmological drug-delivery applications. Using Langmuir monolayers to model the tear film and corneal epithelial membrane, mucins were found to inter...
