Papers by Keyword: Polyethylene Glycol Oleate

Abstract: Polyethylene Glycol Oleate was synthesized by esterification of polyethylene glycol and Oil acid using DMAP as a catalyst. The double bonds of the product in the core of micelles were cross-linked by the initiation of (NH₄)₂S₂O₈ during the micelles formed. Applications of the noncross-linked and cross-linked polyethylene glycol oleate in drug delivery were studied, which indicates that drug efficiency decreased after micelles were core cross-linked, but release rate of MTX from core cross-linked micelles seems slower than that from noncross-linked micelles.
