Von der hinteren Coverseite

Engineering of Biomaterials for Drug Delivery Systems is an essential resource on a variety of biomaterials engineering approaches for creating drug delivery systems that have a great therapeutic and market potential. The book comprehensively discusses recent advances in the fields of biomaterials and biomedical sciences in relation to drug delivery.

The book's early chapters provide a detailed introduction to various engineering approaches in designing drug delivery systems, in addition to discussing regulatory requirements and potential pathways to market. The middle section of the book delves into the engineering of body functions, encompassing simulation of physiological environments and body functions in drug delivery, as well as covering the selection, design and evaluation of biomaterials and discussing the engineering of colloids as drug carriers. The book's final chapters address the engineering of implantable drug delivery systems and advances in drug delivery technology such as 3D printing, stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems, and biological and cell-based drug delivery systems, as well as discussing the future of novel drug delivery systems.

This book is an invaluable resource for drug delivery, materials scientists and bioengineers within the pharmaceutical industry.
