Table 1
Be mean diameter and the clad ratio of the paclitaxel microsphere that each embodiment and comparative example obtain in table 1, as can be seen from the data that table 1 provides, embodiment 1-8 is the chitosan taxol slow release microballoons that the present invention adopts self-assembling technique to prepare, its average particle size is Nano grade (289.5nm-675.7nm), and its minimum average particle diameters is 289.5nm.Comparative example 2 is the mean diameter of the microsphere not adopting the self-assembling technique of ultrasonic emulsification to prepare is 5380nm (5.38 μm), is nearly 20 times of the microspherulite diameter obtained in embodiment 3.Comparative example 3 is for have employed the self-assembly method of ultrasonic emulsification technology, but owing to have employed other oil phase (non-paraffin), therefore the particle diameter of its end product obtained is 2360nm (2.36 μm), the mean diameter of the microsphere obtained much larger than embodiment 1-8 equally.Therefore, when oil phase adopts paraffin, can dispersion effect be promoted, obtain product cut size and more easily control in uniform scope, and the microsphere of more small particle diameter can be obtained.
Comparative example 1 is the chitosan microball not adopting self-assembling technique to prepare, owing to which employs ultrasonic emulsification and paraffin as oil phase, therefore there is good mean diameter (430.5nm), but because it does not adopt self-assembling technique, therefore as can be seen from the curve of Fig. 2, the chitosan microball of comparative example 1 just reaches more than 80% at the preparation of first 10 hours, and the time that the sustained-release micro-spheres of embodiment of the present invention embodiment 8 takes more than 80% preparation to is more than 30 hours.
