Resumen:
Chitosan (CH) is a cationic biocompatible polymer usually employed as drugs carrier. CH can be the matrix for microparticles, nanoparticles, or films, among others (1-3). Mechanical properties of CH matrixes may be improved when CH forms polyelectrolyte complexes with other oppositely charged polymers (4). Carbopol 971NF (CB) is an anionic polymer frequently employed in drug delivery gel systems for buccal, trans dermic, ocular, rectal, and nasal applications (5). The interaction between the polymers may produce a polymeric matrix which could be able to transport and release different drugs. Thus, the aims of this work was the development of polymeric matrixes loaded with econazole nitrate (ECN) as model drug, and the full characterize these systems.
