MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK

Main description:

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.


Contents:

Part 1 Fundamentals of polysaccharides for drug delivery 1. Polysaccharides, their modification and characterization 2. Drug delivery & bioactive potentials of polysaccharides and their derivatives

Part 2 Biomaterials 3. Polysaccharide-based amorphous solid dispersions (ASD) for improving solubility and bioavailability of drugs 4. Interpenetrating polysaccharide networks as oral drug delivery modalities 5. Polysaccharide nanomicelles as drug carriers 6. Polysaccharide nanoparticles for cancer drug targeting 7. Polysaccharide nanoconjugates for drug solubilization and targeted delivery

Part 3 Drug delivery applications of Polysaccharides 8. Biopolymer systems for drug delivery across permeable membranes 9. In situ polysaccharide smart gels and inserts for topical drug delivery applications 10. Polysaccharide hydrogel films/membranes for transdermal delivery of therapeutics 11. Polysaccharide-based orodental delivery systems 12. Stomach-specific buoyant polysaccharide systems for treating localized diseases 13. Advanced colon-specific delivery systems for treating local disorders
