Abstract
The influence of mPEG-PCL and mPEG-PLGA on encapsulation efficiency and drug-loading of nanoparticles was very important. SN-38 NPs were prepared from a series of diblock copolymers: mPEG1000-PLGA2000, mPEG2000-PCLs, mPEG5000-PCLs, mPEG2000-PLGAs, and mPEG5000-PLGAs by the thin film-hydration method. The prepared nanoparticles were characterized by morphology, size, encapsulation efficiency, drug-loading, and in vitro release behavior. This experiment suggested that the encapsulation efficiency and drug-loading of SN-38 NPs were attained the maximum values when the ratio of hydrophilic to hydrophobic block was between 1:2 and 1:3.
