Abstract— The erythropoietin nanoparticle system is formed from the interaction of the positive charge of
chitosan and the negative charge of pectin under acidic conditions, so the stability of the nanoparticle system
in hydrochloric acid and phosphate buffer Salin (PBS) is critical parameter in the choice of permeation
medium. This study aimed to compare the stability of the erythropoietin nanoparticle system in HCl pH 1.2
and PBS pH 7.4. This research is an experimental laboratory study that analyzes includes the analysis of
erythropoietin released from the nanoparticle system dissolved in HCl pH 1.2 and PBS pH 7.4 using
spectrophotometric methods. Erythropoietin levels were calculated as free from the nanoparticle system at 15,
30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 180, and 240 minutes. Erythropoietin levels released from the erythropoietin nanoparticle
system at 15 minutes in HCl medium pH 1.2 lower at 33, 63%, compared to PBS medium at pH 7.4 with free
erythropoietin content of 50.85%. However, after 240 minutes the concentration of free erythropoietin from
the nanoparticle system was higher in the PBS medium at pH 7.4 (60.49%) than in HCl medium at pH 1.2
(57.85%). The results showed that the erythropoietin nanoparticle system was more stable in HCl medium pH
1.2 than in PBS pH 7.4.
