Poly(ɛ-caprolactone) and Eudragit E blends modulate the drug release profiles from FDM printlets
Abstract
Thermoplastic polymers have been used to produce filaments by hot melt extrusion (HME), which can be applied to obtain 3D printlets by fused deposition modelling (FDM). Poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) is a low melting point thermoplastic polymer that provides HME filaments with excellent…

A dry powder formulation for peripheral lung delivery and absorption of an anti-SARS-CoV-2 ACE2…
One of the strategies proposed for the neutralization of SARS-CoV-2 has been to synthetize small proteins able to act as a decoy towards the virus spike protein, preventing it from entering the host cells. In this work, the incorporation of one of these proteins, LCB1, within a spray-dried…
