Design of chitosan colon delivery micro/nano particles for an Achillea millefolium extract with antiproliferative activity against colorectal cancer cells.

Researchers designed micro/nanoparticles using chitosan to encapsulate a yarrow extract with anticancer properties. Spray-drying microparticles showed high encapsulation efficiency and effective release of phenolic compounds, making them a promising vehicle for delivering potential cancer-fighting agents to the colon.
