General description

PCL particles are made with poly(Ɛ-caprolactone) with a MW of 14,000.To re-constitute:
  • Warm to ambient temperature
  • Add DI water or buffer to achieve desired concentration
  • Vortex and sonicate for 5 minutes to ensure particles are well suspended

10 mg/ml particle suspension in DI water. Sonicate or vortex the particles before each use.

Application

Plain PCL particles for testing system compatibility in drug delivery research. Particles can be used as carriers by attaching drug or biological/chemical entities to particle surface. PCL particles are used for controlled release, sustained release and targeted drug delivery. Degradation rate of PCL is slower than PLGA
