Physicochemical characterisation of ICG encapsulated NCs prepared by single emulsification/solvent evaporation method

Formulation Hydrodynamic size ± SD (nm) PDI ± SD Zeta potential ± SD (mV) ICG EE% ± SD$
NC-ICG 210 ± 8 0.12 ± 0.01 -42 ± 1 98.95 ± 0.63
m-NC-ICG 207 ± 4 0.16 ± 0.01 -34 ± 1 98.75 ± 0.35

Size was measured by dynamic light scattering in deionised water (n=3)

Values were obtained in deionised water (n=3)

$ EE% was determined by fluorescence spectroscopy (n=3)
