Table 1.

Independent variables’ levels and responses’ constraints used in the central composite design for the optimization of RLX-PL-MEL nanovesicles.

Independent variables Levels
(–1) (0) (+1)
X1: PL concentration (mg/mL) 20 40 60
X2: MEL concentration (mg/mL) 5 10 15
Responses Desirability constraint
Y1: particle size (nm) Minimize
Y2: Zeta potential (mV) Maximize
Y3: entrapment efficiency (%) Maximize

RLX: raloxifene; PL: phospholipid; MEL: melittin.
