Abstract:Design of Experiments (DOE) is useful tool for formulation optimization. In present study, Design Expert® software (version 13) was used for optimization of Poly(dl‐lactide‐co‐glycolide) (50:50) (PLGA) nanoparticles (NPs). Capecitabine, an approved anticancer drug with short half‐life, was used as model drug. Capecitabine NPs can minimize dosing frequency and improve patient compliance. Effect of two numeric (drug and polymer amount) and one categoric factor (pH of W2 phase) was studied on NP Size and Entrapme… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
