Abstract:Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) particles are one of the most widely used biocompatible and biodegradable materials, and have been extensively investigated as drug delivery vehicles. While a number of different types of additives have been used during and after the synthesis of the PLGA particles for the enhancement of their functions, the shape control of the particles and observations of their shapedependent properties have been rarely reported to date. To overcome the limitations of conventional PLGA p… 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.
