Chitosan Coated PLGA-Microspheres – A Modular System for Targeted Drug Delivery
During some research on PLGA microspheres we found this interesting article published in European Cells and Materials Vol 7 Suppl 2. 2004 (pages 11-12). They were able to achieve a significant change in the zeta potential of their microspheres just by increasing the dosage of Chitosan.
Biodegradable microspheres for vitreoretinal drug delivery
One of the microsphere topics that seems to be growing these days is biodegradability. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the topic an excellent introductory article can be found in: Advance Drug Delivery Reviews 52 (2001) 5-16, called “Biodegradable microspheres for vitreoretinal drug delivery.” The article
Exfoliating Beads: Clinical Study
Exfoliating beads have a long history in cosmetics, but we are unaware of previous studies on the effect of their regular use. A clinical study with 10 subjects shows that regular exfoliation leads to a reduction in the cell turnover time of the stratum corneum (SC) by about 15% (significant

What is a Microsphere? Definition and Explanation.
Microsphere is a term used for small spherical particles, with diameters in the micrometer range (typically 1?m to 1000?m (1mm)). Microspheres are sometimes referred to as microparticles.
