Arrangement of Magnets for a Magnetically Targeted Drug Delivery System-Guide Efficiency of Ferromagnetic Particles-

Mathematical modelling of magnetically targeted drug delivery

A mathematical model for targeted drug delivery using magnetic particles is developed. This includes a diffusive flux of particles arising from interactions between erythrocytes in the microcirculation. The model is used to track particles in a vessel network. Magnetic field design is discussed and we show that it is impossible to specifically target internal regions using an externally applied...

Nanoscale Metal Particles as Nanocarriers in Targeted Drug Delivery System

Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com release process [1-8]. The comfort factors in using nanoscale metal particles are attained from their capability to increase the aqueous solubility of hydrophobic drugs compound, enhanced the circulation time of drugs in the blood, and repress or eliminate fast renal drugs excretion. Nevertheless, the clinical success of these agents is crucially re...

A magnetically actuated drug delivery system for robotic endoscopic capsules

There is an increasing need to incorporate an actively controlled drug delivery system (DDS) into the next generation of capsule endoscopy in order to treat diseases in the gastrointestinal tract in a noninvasive way. Despite a number of attempts to magnetically actuate drug delivery mechanisms embedded in endoscopic capsules, longer operating distances and further miniaturization of on-board c...
