CONTROLLED DELIVERY OF BIOACTIVE AGENTS FROM DECOMPOSABLE FILMS

摘要

A decomposable thin film includes a plurality of multilayer units including a first layer having a first charge and a second layer having a second charge, wherein at least a portion of the multilayers includes a polymeric cyclodextrin associated with a bioactive agent, wherein decomposition of the thin film is characterized by sequential removal of at least a portion of the layers having the first charge and degradation of layers having the second charge and by release of the bioactive agent from a corresponding layers; wherein the decomposable thin film including at least one degradable polyelectrolyte layer that is hydro lyzable.
