Lipid Nanoparticle (LNP) Encapsulation

Microfluidic LNP formulation for siRNA, ASO, and mRNA. We tune FRR/TFR, composition, and buffer exchange to deliver high EE%, controlled particle size/PDI, and ISO-aligned QC.

LNP Encapsulation — Overview & Service at a Glance

Bio-Synthesis, Inc. offers end-to-end lipid nanoparticle (LNP) encapsulation services for siRNA, antisense oligonucleotides (ASO, incl. LNA/cEt), and mRNA payloads. Using precision microfluidic mixing, our scientists optimize FRR/TFR and lipid composition (ionizable lipid, DSPC, cholesterol, PEG-lipid) to achieve reproducible particle size, narrow PDI, and high encapsulation efficiency (EE%).

Each project is executed within our ISO 9001 / 13485-aligned quality framework with full traceability and release testing. Typical QC includes DLS size/PDI, EE% (RiboGreen), zeta potential, pH/osmolality, endotoxin/bioburden, residual solvent, and appearance. Formulations can be exchanged into your preferred buffer via TFF or dialysis and scaled from feasibility to GMP-like production.

Process & Parameters

Process Flow
  1. Define payload, dose, target size/PDI, and release tests
  2. Formulate via precision microfluidic mixing (optimize FRR/TFR) into citrate buffer
  3. Purify/Exchange into final buffer (e.g., PBS) using TFF or dialysis
  4. Polish by 0.22 μm sterile filtration and fill-finish
  5. Test & Report EE%, DLS size/PDI, zeta, pH/osmolality, residual solvent, endotoxin/bioburden
Formulation Parameters
  • Flow Ratio: FRR (aqueous : organic) and TFR tuned for size/PDI
  • Composition: Ionizable lipid, DSPC, cholesterol, PEG-lipid
  • Nucleic Acid Ratio: N:P (or N:L) for high EE% with minimal free payload
  • Buffer: Citrate pH ≈ 4 → exchange to PBS or custom formulation
  • Storage: 2–8 °C (siRNA/ASO LNP) • −20 to −80 °C (mRNA LNP)

FAQ

Which payloads do you support?

siRNA, ASO (incl. LNA/cEt), and mRNA/saRNA. CRISPR (gRNA/mRNA) by program.

How do you control size and PDI?

We optimize FRR/TFR, composition, and buffer conditions during microfluidic mixing, then exchange/polish to the final buffer via TFF/dialysis.

What QC data are provided?

DLS size/PDI, EE% (dye exclusion), zeta, pH/osmolality, endotoxin/bioburden, residual solvent, and appearance; stability support available.

Can you support regulated workflows?

Yes. We offer RUO → GMP-like pathways with ISO-aligned QC and audit-ready documentation.
