A novel tri-block co-polymer, HO2C-PLA-PEG-PLA-CO2H (co-polymer II), with polybasic carboxylic acids as the end-groups was synthesized and characterized by IR and 1H-NMR. Based on the successful synthesis of co-polymer II, water-soluble sodium salicylate and oil-soluble tetrandrine, used as model drugs, were loaded in the co-polymer microparticles prepared through a modified multiple emulsion method. The encapsulation efficiency and drug-releasing behaviour were also investigated. It is found that the microparticles of about 10 microm in size are porous and can be produced from co-polymer II in better encapsulation efficiency (up to 86.65% and 55.94%) compared to those made from PLA/PEG/PLA (co-polymer I) (77.50% and 44.01%). The drug-release behaviour of co-polymer II exhibits an extended continuous release behaviour and the initial burst was reduced obviously. The results show that such functionalised PLA/PEG/PLA carrier provides higher drug encapsulation efficiency and better profiles.
合成了一种新型的三嵌段共聚物HO2C-PLA-PEG-PLA-CO2H(共聚物II),其端基为多元羧酸,并通过红外光谱和1H-NMR对其进行了表征。基于共聚物II的成功合成,将水溶性的水杨酸钠和油溶性的粉防己碱作为模型药物,载入通过改进的复乳法制备的共聚物微粒中。还研究了包封率和药物释放行为。结果发现,与由PLA/PEG/PLA(共聚物I)制成的微粒(77.50%和44.01%)相比,由共聚物II制成的尺寸约为10微米的微粒具有多孔性,且包封率更高(高达86.65%和55.94%)。共聚物II的药物释放行为表现出延长的持续释放行为,初始突释明显减少。结果表明,这种功能化的PLA/PEG/PLA载体具有更高的药物包封率和更好的性能。
