Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for modifying the surface morphology of a medical device. The modified surface has, among other advantageous properties, an improved capacity for sorption or conjugation of a variety of bioactive agents, the addition of which will turn the medical device into a localized drug delivery system.

Abstract: The present invention relates to dehydrated nanoparticles comprising chitosan and a nucleic acid. Preferably, the nucleic acid is a siRNA. Dehydrated nanoparticles of the invention have improved storage characteristics. The particles may be used in screening methods, e.g. where they have been dried onto a solid support, such as the surface of a culture well. The nanoparticles may also be dried onto implants for tissue engineering scaffolds, where they enable transfection of cells growing on the scaffold. Moreover, the particles have therapeutic relevance.
