Polysaccharide Carriers for Drug Delivery presents the latest
information on the selection of safe materials. Due to reported
safety profiles on polysaccharides; they have been the natural
choice for investigation. A wide variety of drug delivery and
biomedical systems have been studied, however, the related
information either concept-wise or application-oriented is
scattered, therefore becoming difficult for readers and researchers
to digest in a concise manner. This gathering of information will
help readers easily comprehend the subject matter.
Functional Polysaccharides for Biomedical Applications examines the
fundamentals and properties of these natural materials and their
potential biomedical applications. With an emphasis on therapeutic
and sensing applications, the book also reviews how polysaccharides
can be modified for tissue engineering applications. Sections
discuss the basics of polysaccharides, give an overview of the
potential applications, look at novel materials and technologies
for use in tissue regeneration and therapeutics, and detail current
biomedical applications. With a strong focus on materials,
engineering and applications, this book is a valuable resource for
those with an interest in harnessing the biomedical potential of
natural polymers.
Advanced and Modern Approaches for Drug Delivery explores novel
approaches currently used for drug delivery, including the must
up-to-date techniques and technology. The approaches discussed
allow pharmaceutical scientists to design effective drug delivery
systems or devices for the management and treatment of numerous
diseases and conditions. Detailed information on a wide variety of
subjects, including dendrimers, lipid nanostructures, solid lipid
nanoparticles, stimuli-responsive smart systems, self-assembled
protein-drug nanoparticles, nanoconjugate formulations, nanofibers,
iontophoretic systems, microneedle systems, ultra-sound triggered
systems, targeted carrier-based intracellular delivery systems,
resealed erythrocyte-based systems, 3 D-printing tool,
site-specific monoclonal antibodies, and bio-inspired systems are
all comprehensively discussed. With contributions from those in
academia and industry, this book is an excellent reference for all
those needing to understand drug delivery systems.
Biopolymer-Based Composites: Drug Delivery and Biomedical
Applications presents a comprehensive review on recent developments
in biopolymer-based composites and their use in drug delivery and
biomedical applications. The information contained in this book is
critical for the more efficient use of composites, as detailed
up-to-date information is a pre-requirement. The information
provided brings cutting-edge developments to the attention of young
investigators to encourage further advances in the field of
bio-composite research. Currently, biopolymers are being
investigated for the design of various drug delivery and biomedical
devices due to their non-toxic, biodegradable and biocompatible
nature. Mostly, biopolymer-based solid orals, gels, hydrogel beads,
and transdermal matrices have been designed in order to control
drug/protein release in simulated bio-fluids.
