Characteristics of SN-38 loaded micelles.

SN-38 loaded micelles D/P ratioa DLE (%)b DLC (%)c Mean size/nmd
SN38/P-I 1/10 47.3±1.6 4.52 51 ±19e
SN38/P-II 1/10 92.3±4.3 8.45 34 ±10
SN38/P-III 1/10 72.4±3.9 6.75 156 ± 73
SN38/P-IV 1/10 92.9±1.9 8.50 34 ±11
a

D/P ratio= weight of SN-38/weight of polymer.

b

Drug (SN-38) loading efficiency (%)= (weight of SN-38 in the micelles/weight of total SN-38 in the loading solution) ×100. Data were obtained from triplicate experiments.

c

Drug loading content (%)= weight of SN-38/(weight of SN-38+ weight of polymer) ×100.

d

Determined by dynamic light scattering (DLS).

e

After remove precipitation by filtration.
