Solubility of PTX in PBS ± surfactant and TyroSpheres.

Sample Concentration of PTX (µg/mL)
PTX in PBS 0.3 *
PTX in 0.1% (w/v) Tween 80 2.7
PTX in 1.0% (w/v) Tween 80 13.8
PTX-TyroSpheres (LE=8.4% w/w) 1160
*

The solubility of PTX in an aqueous environment as reported in literature varies between 0.7 and 30 µg/mL [24–26]. The experiments were performed in duplicate.
