Popis: Multifunctional polyphosphoester-based nanoparticles capable of loading paclitaxel (PTX) both chemically and physically were prepared, achieving an ultrahigh equivalent PTX aqueous concentration of 25.30 mg mL-1. The dual-loaded nanoparticles were effective in killing cancer cells, which has the potential to minimize the amount of nanocarriers needed for clinical applications, due to their ultrahigh loading capacity.
