Micro-porous Paclitaxel-Loaded PLGA Foams -- a New Implant Material for Controlled Release of Chemotherapeutic Agents

Supercritical gas foaming using CO₂ was used to fabricate blank poly DL lactide-co-glycolide (PLGA) micro-porous foams. Paclitaxel-loaded PLGA foams were also produced for the first time using a modification of the supercritical gas foaming technique whereby pacltitaxel-loaded PLGA microparticle pow...
