Paper
RNA lipid nanoparticles stabilized during nebulization through excipient selection
High shear forces during nebulization can destabilize lipid nanoparticles with encapsulated RNA and lead to material loss. We demonstrated the impact of nebulization buffer composition on nanoparticle size, RNA encapsulation, and material recovery.
