Table 2. Pseudo-first order rate constants for 30 wt% and 50 wt% PEGDA-based nanoparticles.

The table shows rate constants in units of inverse days for the two PEGDA-based nanoparticle formulations in each of the four respective incubation conditions. The rate constants were determined assuming pseudo-first order kinetics.
