Pyraclostrobin-loaded poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanospheres:Preparation and characteristics

摘要

We used poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) as a carrier polymer for pyraclostrobin-loaded nanospheres. Using the ultrasound emulsification-solvent evaporation method, the physicochemical characteristics and release properties of the pyraclostrobin-loaded nanospheres were studied by dialysis. The optimal nanospheres prepared had a diameter of 0.6 μm,an active ingredient loading of 17.2％, and a loading rate of 89.7％. Infrared spectroscopy data and differential scanning calorimetry revealed that pyraclostrobin was successfully embedded in the carrier PLGA, and photostability tests indicated enhanced ultraviolet resistance of pyraclostrobin-loaded PLGA nanospheres nanospheres. Release property testing indicated that smaller particles had a faster release rate. Nanospheres also had a faster release rate in slightly acidic and slightly basic environments than in a neutral condition. Agitated nanospheres had a faster release rate than immobile nanospheres. The cumulative release kinetics of pyraclostrobin-loaded nanospheres was consistent with the first order kinetic equation and the Weibull equation.
