Abstract
Nanoscale polyelectrolyte complex materials have been extensively investigated for their promising application in protocell, drug carriers, imaging, and catalysis. However, the conventional preparation approach involving positive and negative polyelectrolytes leads to large size, wide size distribution, instability, and aggregation due to the nonhomogeneous mixing process. Herein, we employ reactive flash nanoprecipitation (RFNP) to control the mixing and preparation of the nanoscale polyelectrolyte complex. With RFNP, homogeneous mixing complexation between oppositely charged chitosan derivatives could be achieved, resulting in stable nanoscale complexes (NCs) with controllable size and narrow size distribution. The smallest size of NCs is found at specific pH due to the maximum attraction of positive and negative molecules of chitosan. The size can be modulated by altering the volumetric flow rates of inlet streams, concentration, and charge molar ratio of two oppositely charged chitosan derivatives. The charge molar ratio is also tuned to create NCs with positive and negative shells. There is no significant variation in the size of NCs produced at different intervals of time. This method allows continuous and tunable NC production and could have the potential for fast, practical translation.

Abstract
Advances in nanoformulation have driven progress in biomedicine by producing nanoscale tools for biosensing, imaging, and drug delivery. Flash-based technology, the combination of rapid mixing technique with the self-assembly of macromolecules, is a new engine for the translational nanomedicine. Here, we review the state-of-the-art in flash-based self-assembly including theoretical and experimental principles, mixing device design, and applications. We highlight the fields of flash nanocomplexation (FNC) and flash nanoprecipitation (FNP), with an emphasis on biomedical applications of FNC, and discuss challenges and future directions for flash-based nanoformulation in biomedicine.

Abstract
As one of the effective broad-spectrum antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory drugs, tilmicosin (TIM) is applied extensively in a wide range of veterinary treatments. However, the low bioavailability typically leads to overuse of TIM in practical applications, which can cause residual accumulation in the environment and contamination of foodstuffs. Here, we report a precipitation method that allows us to prepare TIM-loaded poly(methyl methacrylate-co-methacrylic acid) (P(MMA-co-MAA)) nanoparticles. Specifically, TIM and biocompatible P(MMA-co-MAA) are dissolved in methanol and then water is introduced as an antisolvent, which triggers the co-precipitation and leads to well-controlled nanoparticles. Depending on the drug/polymer mass ratio and the total concentration of drug and polymer, the formed nanoparticles display a tunable radius from 27 to 80 nm with a narrow size distribution, a high drug loading content, and a controlled release of TIM. The encapsulation does not interrupt the antibacterial function of TIM while reducing its cytotoxicity enormously. Moreover, the formed nanoparticles could be dried to powder through freeze-drying, and the redispersion of the particles hardly disturbs the particle size, size distribution, and drug loading content. Our study developed a facile and robust precipitation method for the controlled construction of TIM-loaded polymeric nanoparticles with tunable properties and functions, as well as improved biocompatibility, which shall improve the bioavailability of TIM and enhance the practical applications.
