General description
Block copolymer micelles are widely used in drug delivery applications. PEG-PDLLA is a biodegradable polymeric micelle which is used as carriers for hydrophobic drugs like paclitaxel. PEG is the hydrophilic part and PDLLA is the hydrophobic part which forms the micelle core wherein the hydrophobic drug is loaded.
Application
Used as a carrier for the controlled and targeted release of anticancer hydrophobic drugs.
water-solubilization of drugs
Features and Benefits
- Good biocompatibility, low immunogenicity and good degradability.
- Properties can be easily modulated by changing the block copolymer segment sizes to suit a particular application.
Storage Class
11 - Combustible Solids
