Inhaltsangabe

Nanotechnology for Drug Delivery and Pharmaceutical Sciences presents various drug-delivery techniques that utilize nanotechnology for the biomedical domain, highlighting both therapeutic and diagnostic applications. The book provides important facts and detailed studies on different promising nanocarriers like liposomes, exosomes and virus-based nanocarriers. Moreover, it explores these nanocarriers' utilization in the therapeutic applications of various diseases such as cancer, inflammation, neurodegenerative disorders like Huntington’s disease, Alzheimer's disease, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and inflammatory bowel disease. In addition, the book describes how nanotechnology has efficiently overtaken conventional dosage forms and provided comfort and ease to patients.

Relevant information regarding market trends, patents and social-economic factors are also provided, making this the perfect reference for doctors, researchers and scientists working in the fields of medicine, biochemistry, biotechnology, nanobiotechnology and the pharmaceutical sciences.

Nanotechnology for Drug Delivery and Pharmaceutical Sciences provides a detailed description of nanotechnology and its applications in drug delivery and covers the role of nanotechnology in pharmaceuticals. The book describes how nanotechnology has efficiently overtaken conventional dosage forms and provided comfort and ease to the patient. The pharmaceutical nanoparticle can be described as the sub-nanosized structures containing drugs or bioactive substances made up of several tens or hundreds of atoms or molecules in needles, spherical, crystalline, or amorphous morphologies.

Relevant information regarding market trends, patents, and social-economic factors are also provided making it the perfect reference for doctors, researchers, and scientists who are working in the fields of medicine, biochemistry, biotechnology, nanobiotechnology or pharmaceutical sciences.
