A process for preparing a particle comprising a biological molecule typically a DNA plasmid, and a carrier polymer, typically poly-lactic acid (PLA), in which an organic solvent solution of the biological molecule and the carrier polymer in an organic solvent medium, nearly saturated with the biological molecule, is prepared, then this solution is contacted with an antisolvent substance, typically supercritical carbon dioxide to separate a particle comprising the biological molecule and the carrier polymer. High loadings of the biological molecule in the particle can be achieved.

1. A process for preparing a particle comprising DNA and a carrier polymer which comprises a polyhydroxy acid or polymer based on a polyhydroxy acid having a molecular weight in the range ca. 5000 to 150,000, and wherein the carrier polymer incorporates 0.1-1.0 wt % polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), compr
1. A process for preparing a particle comprising DNA and a carrier polymer which comprises a polyhydroxy acid or polymer based on a polyhydroxy acid having a molecular weight in the range ca. 5000 to 150,000, and wherein the carrier polymer incorporates 0.1-1.0 wt % polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), comprising the steps of: providing a solution of the DNA and the carrier polymer in an organic solvent medium being a mixture of a first, more polar, organic solvent being a C1-5 halogenated hydrocarbon solvent in which the DNA is soluble and a second, less polar, organic solvent in which the carrier polymer is soluble and the DNA is insoluble or practically insoluble and wherein the concentration of the DNA dissolved in said medium is at least the saturation concentration of the DNA in the solvent medium, wherein the organic solvent medium contains less than 1% v:v water, andcontacting said solution in which the concentration of the DNA dissolved in said medium is at least the saturation concentration with an antisolvent substance to thereby precipitate the DNA and separate the carrier polymer from the solution as a particle comprising both the DNA and the carrier polymer from the solvent medium. 2. The process according to claim 1, comprising a step of isolating and collecting the particle comprising both the DNA and the carrier polymer from the solvent medium. 3. The process according to claim 1, wherein the DNA is in the form of a DNA plasmid. 4. The process according to claim 1, wherein the carrier polymer comprises poly-(L-lactide). 5. The process according to claim 4, wherein the molecular weight is in the range ca. 5,000 to 75,000. 6. The process according to claim 1, wherein the carrier polymer incorporates at least one surfactant. 7. The process according to claim 1, wherein the weight ratio of DNA:carrier polymer in the solvent medium is in the range of 1:20 to 1:1. 8. The process according to claim 1 comprising: providing a first solution of the DNA in said first organic solvent, providing a second solution of the carrier polymer in said second organic solvent, mixing the first and second organic solutions, to thereby form a mixture of the first and second solvents in which the concentration of the DNA is at least the saturation concentration of the DNA in the so-formed mixture of first and second organic solvents, and contacting the mixture of the first and second organic solvents with an antisolvent substance to thereby separate the DNA and the carrier polymer as a particle comprising both the DNA and the carrier polymer from the mixture of first and second organic solvents. 9. The process according to claim 1, wherein the first organic solvent is a solvent which can co-ordinate with DNA. 10. The process according to claim 9, wherein the first organic solvent is dimethyl sulphoxide or formamide. 11. The process according to claim 1, wherein the more polar first organic solvent and the less polar second organic solvent is used in a first:second organic solvent volume ratio in the range from 2:1 to 1:10. 12. The process according to claim 1, comprising providing a second solution of the carrier polymer in the second organic solvent and mixing the second solution with a first solution of the DNA in the first organic solvent, and the concentration of the carrier polymer solution in the second solution is between 0.1 to 200 mg/ml. 13. The process according to claim 1, wherein the antisolvent substance is a supercritical fluid or near critical fluid. 14. The process according to claim 13, wherein the antisolvent substance is carbon dioxide between 25° C. to 45° C. and a pressure of 80-300 bar. 15. The process according to claim 13, wherein the solution of the DNA and the carrier polymer in the organic solvent medium and the supercritical fluid are fed along respective flow conduits to a region where the mixed solutions and the supercritical fluid meet and contact each other. 16. The process according to claim 14, wherein the antisolvent substance is carbon dioxide between 25° C. to 45° C. and a pressure of 80-200 bar.
