Abstract
⺠Nicotine-magnesium aluminum silicate microparticles were prepared using electrostatic interaction. ⺠Lyophilization was used for drying and maintaining an original morphology of the microparticles. ⺠Chitosan (CS) was used for surface modification of the microparticles at acidic pH. ⺠Surface modification using CS caused an increase in release and permeation of nicotine. ⺠Microparticle surface-modified with CS presented better mucoadhesive properties.
