Fig. 1From: Thermosensitive core-rigid micelles of monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-deoxy cholic acidScheme of mPEG-DC synthesis and drug release from its thermosensitive micelles. Above the LCST, mPEG shells (blue curves at below LCST/thick violet curves at above LCST) coat the micelles with rigid cores (orange circles), minimizing the initial burst release of the encapsulated drugs (red dots)Back to article page
