Biocompatible and biodegradable polymer. Can be used in the formation of nanoparticles for drug delivery. The multi-arm molecular structure might promote high drug loading, superior colloidal stability, as well as long circulation time.
PLGA, a copolymer of lactide and glycolide, is one of the most used biodegradable polymers that find a wide range of biomedical applications including drug delivery and tissue engineering. However, in spite of remarkable advancement, nanotherapeutics based on PLGA might

Injectable nanoparticulate carriers have important potential applications such as site-specific drug delivery or medical imaging. Conventional carriers, however, cannot generally be used because they are eliminated by the reticulo-endothelial system within seconds or minutes after intravenous injection. To address these
Professor Robert K. Prud’homme introduces flash nanoprecipitation (FNP) for nanoparticle fabrication, which is a scalable, rapid mixing process for nanoparticle formulations.
