Biodegradable poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microspheres for the sustained release of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) were prepared by a soild-in-oil-in-water (s/o/w) emulsion method. Prior to encapsulation, the LMWH micro-particles were fabricated by a modified freezing-induced phase separation method. The micro-particles were subsequently encapsulated into PLGA microspheres. Process optimization revealed that the NaCl concentration in the outer phase of s/o/w emulsion played a critical role in determining the properties of the microspheres. When the NaCl concentration increased from 0% to 5%, the encapsulation efficiency significantly increased from 51.5% to 76.8%. The initial burst release also decreased from 37.3% to 12.4%. In vitro release tests showed that LMWH released from PLGA microspheres in a sustained manner for about 14 days. Single injection of LMWH-loaded PLGA microspheres into rabbits resulted in an elevation of an anti-factor Xa activity for about 6 days. Furthermore, the integrity of the encapsulated LMWH was preserved during encapsulation process.
