Nanoparticle synthesis and sustained release of MUC4β antigen. (a) Scanning electron microscopy image showing representative 2% MUC4β-loaded 20:80 CPTEG:CPH polyanhydride nanoparticles. Scale bar: 1 μm. (b) Release profile of MUC4β from 20:80 CPTEG:CPH polyanhydride nanoparticles for 30 days. Error bars represent SD. Three independent replicates were analyzed in the release studies. CPH, 1,3-bis (p-carboxyphenoxy)hexane; CPTEG, 1,8-bis(p-carboxyphenoxy)-3,6-dioxaoctane
