“…As for adverse effect of cryoprotectant usage for storage of RNA-LNPs, the size of RNA-LNPs enhances more or less after reconstruction of freeze-dried RNA-LNPs. The cryoprotectants that have been evaluated for the freeze-drying of LNPs include monosaccharides (glucose, 40–44 fructose, 41–43,45 mannitol, 1,44,46–53 mannose, 40,43–45 sorbitol, 41,44,46,47 and xylose 45 ), disaccharides (sucrose, 1,23,24,40,42,45,52,54–57 lactose, 44,45 maltose, 23,40,42,44,54 and trehalose 1,24,40,44,46,47,53,54,56,58–60 ), polysaccharides (raffinose), 45 hydrophilic polymers (polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), 44,46,47 polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), 44,51 and gelatin 44 ), and hydrophilic chemicals (glycine, 44,46,47 ) (Table 2).…”
