Shining a Light on Lipid Nanoparticle Characterization
Hanna Jankevics Jones, Natalia Markova

Pages: 22–25
Using an orthogonal approach to lipid nanoparticle analysis can increase the odds of project success.
The complexity of messenger RNA (mRNA)-based therapeutics is evident in the lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) used to encapsulate fragile mRNA cargo. Size, composition, aggregation, surface charge, and structure of LNPs can all have significant effects on a therapeutic molecule’s success. Unlike small-molecule drugs or protein therapeutics, which are chemically or biologically synthesized, LNPs self-assemble during the mixing of their component ingredients. This article discusses the challenges of LNP characterization as well as the analytical techniques that have proven successful in optimizing their development.
