  • Patent number: 6814980
    Abstract: The present invention relates to novel compositions comprising microspheres and/or nanospheres containing condensed polyanionic bioactive agents, such as DNA. The polyanionic bioactive agent in the microspheres and/or nanospheres is preferably condensed using a polycationic condensing agent, such as poly-L-lysine. The present invention further relates to methods for producing the microspheres and/or nanospheres containing condensed polyanionic bioactive agents.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 4, 2002
    Date of Patent: November 9, 2004
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of Michigan
    Inventors: Robert J. Levy, Vinod Labhasetwar, Hagit Cohen
