Abstract

Nanoparticles bearing carbohydrate chains on the surface can be prepared by the simple diafiltration method. The nanoparticles prepared by the present method displayed high yield, no-aggregation formation, small size, narrow size distribution, and one-step procedure. Also, the high density carbohydrate chains on the particles can be recognized by liver cells.
