Poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) Microspheres

Size: 25-200 μm

High monodispersity 

Multi-field biomedical applications

Product Overview

Our PLGA microspheres are synthesized from poly(lactide-co-glycolide), a high-performance biodegradable polymer. PLGA is FDA-approved for human use and is widely recognized for its excellent biocompatibility and controllable degradation rates.

Key Features

•Precision Monodispersity: Narrow and controllable particle size distribution.

Safety & Reliability: Highly safe raw materials requiring no specialized toxicity treatment before use.

Versatile Payload Delivery: Capable of loading various active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), including proteins, peptides, and small molecules.

Tailored Customization: Available with customized sizes, material ratios (L/G), and surface functionalization to meet specific research needs.

Applications

Advanced Drug Delivery: Tested for systemic compatibility and used as carriers for controlled, sustained, and targeted delivery.

Tissue Engineering: Acts as a scaffold for cell seeding and carries bioactive molecules to facilitate the repair or regeneration of tissues and organs.

Medical Aesthetics: Utilized as injectable fillers for skin tissue, smoothing wrinkles and correcting facial contours.

Resuspension Protocol

For optimal performance of lyophilized microspheres (PLGA/PCL):

Retrieval: Remove the vial from storage.

•Equilibration: Allow the vial to reach room temperature before opening.

Solvent Addition: Add the required volume of deionized water or buffer.

Vortexing: Use a vortex mixer to ensure the microspheres are uniformly dispersed.

Ultrasonication: Place in an ultrasonic bath for 5 minutes to break up any potential aggregates.

Inspection: Verify the suspension is uniform and free of visible clusters.
