Figure 1

Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) investigation. (A) SAXS patterns of different LNP formulations in phosphate buffer (pH 4.5, light blue) and application buffer (pH 5.7, dark blue). Formulations are displayed according to their composition with PEG-grafted LNPs (left) and pSar-grafted LNPs (right) and their ionizable and helper lipid are displayed right to the scattering patterns. Scattering patterns are vertically shifted for better visualization. (B) Comparison between LNP formulations in d-spacing (top). Investigated pairs generated with formulations only differing in one lipid component (ionizable lipid, helper lipid, stealth lipid). Mean of the differences in the compared formulations is shown on the right and represents the mean factor in which the formulations differ in d-spacing when comparing the investigated pairs; the same procedure for correlation length is at the bottom. Data displayed as mean ± S.D.
