Table 1. The EE and LR of drugs for curcumin-loaded PLGA MPs fabricated in CES.

The applied voltages: V 1 = 4.8 kV, V 2 = 1.5 kV, V 3 = -8 kV; The outer liquid: PLGA (Mw = 10,000) in ethyl acetate solution; The inner liquid: 4.0 w% curcumin and PLGA (Mw = 50,000) in acetone solution; The vertical distances: h = 0.2 mm, H 1 = 2.5 mm, H 2 = 20 mm, H 3 = 80 mm.
