Among these novel drug delivery systems are the chemically-controlled systems. These are dependent upon chemical reaction to release the drug from the polymer within which it is contained.

Alongside targeted drug delivery, other areas of health and medicine, such as immune system development, imaging, and diagnostics, have also evolved with the advent of nanotechnology.

Drug delivery systems (DDSs) like nanoparticles, hydrogels, micelles, or liposomes improve  drug availability while ...

Figure 1. Some nanotechnology-based drug delivery platforms, including a nanocrystal, liposome, polymeric micelle, protein-based nanoparticle, dendrimer, carbon nanotube and polymer–drug conjugate.

Surface modification of polymers can increase their blood circulation duration. Role of Polymer Structural Properties in Common Polymer-Based Drug Delivery Systems In terms of drug delivery, polymer ...

WCC Biomedical, a leader in novel drug delivery systems, will attend the upcoming NACDS Total Store Expo (TSE), where it will ...

It still is a huge challenge to treat neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer, Parkinson or Huntington, which are increasingly affecting our society as the average life-span of our population ...

The company also boasts of OctoDEX--dextran-based microsphere delivery technology for proteins and particulate systems--and a biodegradable polymeric drug delivery system for the controlled ...

That also greatly reduces the need for a whole lot of polymer in the long-lasting formulation. In fact, just a small quantity of it – less than 1.6% to be precise – helped alter the density of ...
