Overview
LACTEL® DL-PLE, IV 0.55-0.75 is a high-performance amorphous polymer containing poly(D,L-lactide) with an ester end group and no added preservatives. It is available as a white to yellowish granule solid pellet with an inherent viscosity of 0.55─0.75 dL/g in chloroform. As a pharmaceutical drug excipient, it provides a cost-effective solution for controlled drug delivery in veterinary medicine and human generic drug formulations, with wide substance compatibility, including peptides, proteins, microparticles, and nanoparticles. Formulated with 100% bioabsorbability, it is fully metabolized by the body for exceptional effectiveness with a degradation period of 12 months.
