This study was focused on a synthesis and characterization of new hybrid nanocomposites based on the star-like copolymers dextran-graft-polyacrylamide (in non-ionic and anionic form), and Dextran-graft-poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)  with incorporated silver, gold nanoparticles, photosensitizer, and drugs.  Transmission electron microscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering were used for nanosystems characterization. The binary and multicomponent nanosystems were studied  and tested for their anticancer activity for photodynamic and chemotherapy.
