The influence of additives on the delivery of paclitaxel from bioresorbable PLGA films by Huang, Charlotte Liwen.

“…The objective is to investigate the use of additives as a means to control and modulate the delivery of paclitaxel from PLGA thin films. The release profiles obtained from the first part of the study with different types of PLGA show linear dependence on the concentration of terminal carboxylic acid end-groups of PLGA, which also regulates the degradation of PLGA films. …”

Release retardation of model protein on polyelectrolyte-coated PLGA nano- and microparticles by Nugraha, Chandra, Bora, Meghali, Venkatraman, Subbu S.

“…Although liposomes have received considerable attention with PEM coating for sustained drug release, similar results employing PEM built on poly(lactic-co-lycolic acid) (PLGA) particles is scant. In this work, we demonstrate that the build-up pH and polyelectrolyte pairs of PEM affect the release retardation of BSA from PLGA particles. …”
