An aqueous polymer two-phase system as carrier in the spray-drying of biological material
This investigation describes a novel concept in the formulation of carrier systems for the spray-drying of biological materials. As carrier material a system composed of poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) and dextran was used. This system yields an aqueous two-phase system in which each phase is enriched in one of the polymers. By varying the composition of the system, the effective structure of a 'sti
