Component molecular weights and calculated amounts

Composition retained from the cited study below. Research planning aid only. Results cover lipid component weights and do not include RNA, buffer, solvent, process loss or an N/P ratio.

Calculated total: 100.0000 mg lipid.

Calculated catalog planning quantities; RNA, solvent and process loss are excluded. DMG-PEG2000 uses 2507. Component mass = total lipid mass × molar parts × molecular weight / sum(parts × molecular weight). This conversion does not infer N/P.

Additional reported findings

Storage stability

At −20 °C for 12 weeks, particle size, PDI, zeta potential, EE and protein expression were not significantly different from −80 °C storage; 4 °C and longer storage altered some parameters.
