Nanoparticles for Drug Delivery Paperback / softback
Edited by K. S. Joshy, Sabu Thomas, Vijay Kumar Thakur
Part of the Gels Horizons: From Science to Smart Materials series
Paperback / softback
Description
This book introduces the reader to drug delivery with specific emphasis on the use of nanoparticles.
It covers properties, characterization, and preparation of different types of nanoparticles and discusses recent advances in their structural design and biomedical application, as well as the issues and challenges associated with their design and use.
Some of the topics covered include the potential application of nanoparticles in biomedical fields, hazards associated with use of nanoparticles for drug delivery, size-dependent factors in drug delivery applications, different organic, inorganic and their hybrid systems used in drug delivery, etc.
It also highlights use of nanoparticles in controlled and targeted drug delivery, and their application in stimuli-responsive, especially pH-responsive, drug release.
Additionally, it also focuses on biomimetic nanoparticles, challenges faced in the designing of nanoparticles for drug delivery in cancer, viral and bacterial diseases.
The contents of this volume will be useful to researchers and professionals working on advances in targeted drug delivery systems.
