06:11Procedure for Loading Doxorubicin into BCMs
07:56Results: Characterization and In Vitro Evaluation as a Drug Delivery Platform of the Block Copolymer Based of Poly(ethylene glycol) and Poly(phenyl glycidyl ether)
The key steps of living anionic polymerization of phenyl glycidyl ether (PheGE) on methoxy-polyethylene glycol (mPEG-b-PPheGE) are described. The resulting block copolymer micelles (BCMs) were loaded with doxorubicin 14% (wt%) and sustained release of drug over 4 days under physiologically relevant conditions was obtained.
