Preparation and degradation behavior of PELGE nanoparticles / 生物医学工程学杂志

ABSTRACT

A series of poly (lacticacid-co-glycolicacid)-poly(ethylene glycol) (PLGA-PEG, PELGA) block copolymers and poly (ethylene glycol)-poly (lacticacid-co-glycolicacid)-poly (ethylene-glycol) (PELGE) was synthesized by ring-opening polymerization. PELGA nanoparticles and PELGE nanoparticles were prepared using the emulsion-solvent evaporation technique (O/W). To study the behavior and mechanism of the degradation of PELGA-NP and PELGA-NP, we determined the lactic acids by UV spectrophotometry. The method confirmed that degradation was much faster for polymers with a decrease in the LA content of the polymers or an increase in the PEG content of the polymers.
