Preserving the inflated structure of lyophilized sporopollenin exine capsules with polyethylene glycol osmolyte

Preserving the inflated structure of lyophilized sporopollenin exine capsules with polyethylene glycol osmolyte

Extracted from natural pollen grains, sporopollenin exine capsules (SECs) are robust, chemically inert biopolymer shells that posess highly uniform size and shape characteristics and that can be utilized as hollow microcapsules for drug delivery applications. However, it is challenging to extract fu...
