Key Features and Benefits

• Biodegradability: They naturally break down into harmless components in the environment, offering an eco-friendly alternative to conventional plastics.
• Biocompatibility: They are well-tolerated by biological systems, making them ideal for in-vivo applications without causing adverse reactions.
• Tunability: Their properties, particularly surface chemistry and size, can be precisely controlled and customized for specific applications.

Application Areas

PLA microspheres are extensively used in:

• Biomedical research: Controlled drug delivery, vaccine formulation, gene delivery systems.
• Cosmetics and personal care: Microencapsulation of actives for sustained release.
• 3D printing and materials science: Functional filler in biodegradable composites.
• Life science assays: It beads for immunoassays, affinity separation, and flow cytometry.

Storage and Handling

• Storage conditions: Store sealed at room temperature or 4°C.
• Crucial note: DO NOT FREEZE. Freezing can lead to irreversible aggregation and damage to the microsphere structure, significantly impacting their performance.
• Shelf life: With proper storage, our PLA microspheres boast a reliable 12-month shelf life.
