Preparation and characterization of Alendronate depot microspheres based on novel poly(-ε-caprolactone)/Vitamin E TPGS copolymers

In the present study, new aledronate (AL) loaded microspheres were prepared with the use of polycaprolactone (PCL)/Vitamin E d-ɑ-tocopheryl poly(ethylene glycol) 1000 succinate (TPGS) copolymers. Specifically, PCL-TPGS copolymers, prepared at several PCL to TPGS ratios (namely, 90/10, 80/20, 70/30 a...
