  • Patent number: 11672819
    Abstract: Provided is a nanogel exhibiting anticoagulation and antioxidation activities, including a graphene-like nanosheet and a polysaccharide, which are complexed to form a cross-linked supramolecular structure. Also provided is a method of preparing the nanogel, including carbonizing the polysaccharide by dry heating. By the heating process, at least a portion of the polysaccharide is conversed into the graphene-like nanosheet, thereby forming a graphene-like nanosheet-embedded phenolic-polysaccharide nanogel that has exceptional polyphenolic structure and high binding affinity toward thrombin. Further provided is a method of preventing or treating a disease or a condition susceptible to amelioration by anticoagulants or antioxidants by using the nanogel.

  • Publication number: 20220257638
    Abstract: The present invention provides a polysaccharide carbon nanogel exhibiting antitumor efficacy prepared by carbonizing the polysaccharide utilizing dry heating. The polysaccharide carbon nanogel comprises a graphene-like nanosheet and a polysaccharide, which are complexed to form a cross-linked supramolecular structure. The polysaccharide carbon nanogels has an exceptional polyphenolic structure and high antimetastatic acitivity, which can become a promising anti-tumor drug.
