(a) Schematic representation of ETO NC preparation using the antisolvent precipitation process. (b) SEM image of ETO MC powder, scale bar 10 µm. (c) SEM image of ETO NC powder, scale bar 5 µm. (d) TEM image of ETO NCs/F-127 0.03% w/v, scale bar 0.5 µm. (e) PXRD patterns of ETO MC (blue) and ETO NC powder (black). (f) PXRD patterns of ETO NCs in F-127 aqueous solution. (g) Release kinetics profiles of Toposar, ETO NCs F-127 0.2% w/v, ETO MC F-127 0.2% w/v in HBS buffer incubating at 37 °C under constant agitation. *pETO NC-Toposar < 0.0, **pETO NC-ETO < 0.05.
