Preparation and Application in Drug Storage and Delivery of Agarose Nanoparticles

Figure 3

Dependence of the of agarose gel nanoparticles on the temperature during the heating (○)–cooling (●) cycle. The inserted figure represents the same results of the main panel showing the reversibility of the heating–cooling cycle. The heating–cooling steps were carried out slowly enough (0.25°C/min) to ensure the quasistatic character of the temperature change.
