The derivatives of polyethylenimine (PEI 25 and 750kDa) were synthesized by partially substituting their amino groups with imidazolyl moieties. The series of imidazolyl-PEIs thus obtained were cross-linked with polyethylene glycol (PEG) to get imidazolyl-PEI-PEG nanoparticles (IPP). The component of hydrophobicity
