Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="toc"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <graphic position="anchor" id="ga" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgjjkqmm3k" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" />Effective radioprotection is achieved by chitosan-based long-circulating nanocarriers with radioprotective agents. The stable encapsulation does not reduce its radioprotective capability and exhibits prolonged retention time, thereby showing more beneficial effects.</p> </abstract>
