    Shape and internal composition evaluation.

( A2 ) Zoomed in cryo-TEM image of LNP1-CW-TPGS (Unloaded LNP with carnauba wax only lipid core and TPGS as surfactant) to provide a clearer view of the observed shape. ( B ) Shape parameter Rg/Rh determined at peak height for the various compositions of LNP formulation using AF4-MD shows values corresponding to spherical shapes. ( C ): WAXS plots of LNP5, LNP5-Q, LNP5-DHA and LNP1-CW-TPGS. ( D ) SAXS data and modelling by a core-shell bicelle for LNP1-CW-TPGS in water at a concentration of 11.02 mg.mL-1 based on lipid fraction. The geometry parameters correspond to the values described in the sketch under (E) with D = 37 nm; d = 9 nm; h = 10 nm; H = 17 nm; m = 3.5 nm. For the calculation, the SLD for water (core) and lipid (internal toroid) were applied. ( E ) Schematic representation of the particle shape corresponding to a disk-toroid hybrid based on structural insights gained from the experimental data using cryo-TEM and SAXS: the internal lipid toroid is stabilised by a monolayer of surfactant while the water core is stabilised by a double layer of surfactant at the interface between the core and aqueous particle environment.

    Techniques Used: Formulation, Concentration Assay

    Drug encapsulation and quantification. ( A ) A schematic representation illustrating two alternative approaches for the indirect determination of the encapsulation efficiency of LNP, using AF4 coupled to either a UV-Vis detector or a fluorescence detector. A collection of small drug molecules filtered through the membrane of the AF4 channel is quantified using a pre-calibrated UV-Vis detector. The large drug-loaded particles separated along the channel are detected using the fluorescence detector. ( B1 ) Elution profile showing the UV-Vis signal of quinine, with the cross-flow coupled to the UV-Vis detector. Wavelength set at 250 nm. ( B2 ) The calibration curve is generated by injecting several concentrations of quinine, enabling the quantification of quinine present in the cross-flow waste. Wavelength set at 250 nm. ( B3 ) Elution profile showing the UV-Vis signal of LNP5 and LNP5-Q, respectively. The cross-flow is coupled to the UV-Vis detector, set to a wavelength of 250 nm. C1) and C2) Fluorescence detection of the LNPs shows that the quinine is located in the particle due to increased intensity of the fluorescence signal at the same elution volume as the particle. The concentration of the particles is kept the same; thus, the increasing absorption intensity and broader absorption wavelength after excitation at 250 and 350 nm are the result of the quinine in the loaded LNP5-Q-B4 compared to the pure LNP5-WS-B4.

    Shape and internal composition evaluation. ( A1 ) Cryo-TEM image of LNP5 (Unloaded LNP with carnauba wax and red palm oil as lipid core, with both TPGS and Polysorbate 40 as surfactants), ( A1.1 ) the average mean particle size distribution, and ( A1.2 ) the average particle thickness distribution. ( A2 ) Zoomed in cryo-TEM image of LNP1-CW-TPGS (Unloaded LNP with carnauba wax only lipid core and TPGS as surfactant) to provide a clearer view of the observed shape. ( B ) Shape parameter Rg/Rh determined at peak height for the various compositions of LNP formulation using AF4-MD shows values corresponding to spherical shapes. ( C ): WAXS plots of LNP5, LNP5-Q, LNP5-DHA and LNP1-CW-TPGS. ( D ) SAXS data and modelling by a core-shell bicelle for LNP1-CW-TPGS in water at a concentration of 11.02 mg.mL-1 based on lipid fraction. The geometry parameters correspond to the values described in the sketch under (E) with D = 37 nm; d = 9 nm; h = 10 nm; H = 17 nm; m = 3.5 nm. For the calculation, the SLD for water (core) and lipid (internal toroid) were applied. ( E ) Schematic representation of the particle shape corresponding to a disk-toroid hybrid based on structural insights gained from the experimental data using cryo-TEM and SAXS: the internal lipid toroid is stabilised by a monolayer of surfactant while the water core is stabilised by a double layer of surfactant at the interface between the core and aqueous particle environment.

    Drug encapsulation and quantification. ( A ) A schematic representation illustrating two alternative approaches for the indirect determination of the encapsulation efficiency of LNP, using AF4 coupled to either a UV-Vis detector or a fluorescence detector. A collection of small drug molecules filtered through the membrane of the AF4 channel is quantified using a pre-calibrated UV-Vis detector. The large drug-loaded particles separated along the channel are detected using the fluorescence detector. ( B1 ) Elution profile showing the UV-Vis signal of quinine, with the cross-flow coupled to the UV-Vis detector. Wavelength set at 250 nm. ( B2 ) The calibration curve is generated by injecting several concentrations of quinine, enabling the quantification of quinine present in the cross-flow waste. Wavelength set at 250 nm. ( B3 ) Elution profile showing the UV-Vis signal of LNP5 and LNP5-Q, respectively. The cross-flow is coupled to the UV-Vis detector, set to a wavelength of 250 nm. C1) and C2) Fluorescence detection of the LNPs shows that the quinine is located in the particle due to increased intensity of the fluorescence signal at the same elution volume as the particle. The concentration of the particles is kept the same; thus, the increasing absorption intensity and broader absorption wavelength after excitation at 250 and 350 nm are the result of the quinine in the loaded LNP5-Q-B4 compared to the pure LNP5-WS-B4.
