• β-LG nanocapsules contain oxalipalladium and LMP were synthesized for colon cancer oral drug delivery.
• The best nanocapsule were obtained at pH 4.5 in the presence of LMP.
• Releasing of oxalipalladium from β-LG nanocapsules is pH sensitive.
• The maximum release value was occurred during 8 h in simulated colon fluid.
• The release mechanism is anomalous diffusion with predominant contribution of erosion.
Many efforts have been made to improve the targeting and potential applications of oral drug delivery systems. In this paper, we have demonstrated and investigated how biopolymer nanocapsules can be used as a novel oral drug delivery system for metal-based drug delivery in colon cancer therapy. In this work, β-lactoglobulin nanocapsules containing oxali-palladium were chosen to be synthesized and investigated for the use in colon cancer therapy. These nanocapsules were fabricated in three different pHs (3, 4.5 and 7) and investigated both in the presence and absence of low methoxyl pectin.The results obtained from these experiments indicated that the soluble and stable β-lactoglobulin nanocapsules which contained oxali-palladium had the ability to be formed at a size smaller than 200 nm when in the presence of low methoxyl pectin and at pH 4.5. The in vitro release data indicated that the maximum release occurs at pH 7.0 and 7.5. There lease mechanism demonstrated an anomalous diffusion with a predominant contribution from erosion.Finally, it can be concluded that the β-LG nanocapsules containing oxali-palladium complexed with low methoxyl pectin can be a very promising candidate for the use in oral drug delivery for colon cancer treatment.
