Surfactants and Polymers in Drug Delivery (Hardcover)

This indispensable reference features the latest findings surrounding the physicochemical aspects of surfactant and polymer systems to facilitate the design and understanding of novel and advanced drug delivery formulations-highlighting the basics of surfactant and polymer surface activity and self-assembly, the various types of structures formed by such compounds, and how they may be used in drug delivery. Surfactants and Polymers in Drug Delivery discusses solubilization of drugs in micellar systems liquid crystalline phases formed by PEO-PPO-PEO block copolymers and other copolymers and surfactants triggered drug-release from liposome formulations microemulsions formed by ionic and nonionic surfactants microemulsions in oral and topical administration emulsions in parenteral, oral, and dermal drug delivery gels formed by polysaccharides, block copolymers, and polymer-surfactant mixtures chemically cross-linked gels responsive polymer systems in drug delivery experimental techniques for studying drug delivery systems drying of aqueous protein solutions, polymeric two-phase systems, emulsions, and liposomes bioadhesion With nearly 500 references, tables and figures, Surfactants and Polymers in Drug Delivery will benefit surface, pharmaceutical, colloid, polymer, and medicinal chemists; chemical, formulation, and application engineers; and pharmacists; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
