In this respect, PLGA NPs with a mean size of 212 nm, containing dexamethasone (Dex) (Dex/PLGA NPs) have been produced by the dialysis technique without the use of a surfactant.

The in vitro drug delivery investigation showed that temperature has significant control over the release rate of Dex from PVP-coated PLGA NPs. The thermosensitive polymer is hydrated at temperatures lower than LCST (20 °C) and forms a gel around the nanoparticles slowing down the release rate of Dex.
