In my research I will be investigating arginine tagging of poly(ethly cyanoacrylate) PECA nanoparticles. Arginine tagging has become of interest in drug delivery as it can improve cellular uptake and enhance oral bioavailability. Arginine is acts as a cell-penetrating peptide (CPP) and the attachment of numerous arginine residues on the surface of the nanoparticles may facilitate absorption across gut epithelial cells.<\/p>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In this project, I will investigate the stability arginine-tagged nanoparticles in simulated gastrointestinal media.
