In this study, quercetin (QC) with cancer chemoprevention effect and anticancer potential was loaded into polymeric micelles of methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-cholesterol conjugate (mPEG-Chol) in order to increase its water solubility. MPEG-Chol with lower critical micelle concentration (CMC) value (4.0 x

To promote the application of methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-cholesterol (mPEG-Chol), mPEG-Chol was used to prepare core-shell micelles encapsulating poorly water-soluble docetaxel (DTX-PM) by modified cosolvent evaporation method. Approaches to enhance DTX entrapment efficiency (EE) and minimize particle size were investigated in
