Abstract

Aqueous solutions of polyethylene oxide-polypropylene oxide-polyethylene oxide (PEO-PPO-PEO) copolymers form micelles and cubic lattices as their temperature is raised. The presence of added solutes within the dispersions can also affect the kinetics of structure formation. Here, we investigate the structures formed in the amphiphiles P104, P105, and F108 solutions at 31% mass per v both neat and co-formulated with the drug cisplatin (0.02% to 0.1% mass per v) using small-angle X-ray scattering. P104 formed BCC colloidal crystals while P105 and F108 formed FCC structures. Cisplatin had a minor influence of the formation and stability of the crystals during these thermal excursions. The largest interaction between the amphiphiles and cisplatin was P104 where there was a 2% reduction in the BCC lattice parameter of P104 as cisplatin loading rose to 0.1% at 28 °C. The F108 unit cell swelled ∼2% upon cisplatin loading of 0.1%. A progressive evolution and breakdown of these structures was noted as the temperature rose from 10 °C to 35 °C. For the different amphiphiles, crystal thermal expansion coefficients of ∼1 × 10-2 °C-1 were determined in neat and loaded amphiphiles with cisplatin and all the crystals swelled with increasing temperature.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
