Abstract: The polylactic acid(PLA) was used as the material with 10-methoxycamptothecin(MeOCPT) as model drugs,the sustained-release nanoparticles for MeOCPT was successfully prepared and characterized by emulsion solvent evaporation method.The sustained-release nanoparticles was obvious spherical structure by transmission electron microscopy(TEM) observations.The optimal ratio of MeOCPT to PLA was 0.02:1.The particle size distribution was 100250 nm.The satisfactory encapsulation efficiency and drug-loading content were up to 83.57±3.45 and 3.10±1.19%,respectively.The in vitro release studies showed that 70% of MeOCPT was released from the sustained-release nanoparticles in the first 48 h which had obvious slow release effect.In conclusion,the sustained-release nanoparticles for MeOCPT were successfully prepared by emulsion solvent evaporation method which providing basis for further research of PLA as drug controlled release carrier and direction for the research of small molecular drugs.
