Liposomes as drug carriers.
Liposomes are artificially prepared vesicles made of lipid bilayer. Liposomes can be filled with drugs, and used to deliver drugs for cancer and other diseases. Amongst the various carrier, few drug carrier reached the stages of clinical trails where phospholipid vesicles (liposome) show strong potential for effective drug delivery to the site of action. Liposomes can be composed of naturally-d...
متن کاملPolymeric Microparticles as Alternative Carriers for Antidiabetic Glibenclamide Drug
Background: Glibenclamide is a lipophilic drug widely used in type 2 diabetes treatment. However, its low bioavailability limits its use. Thus, novel formulations should be applied to improve the drug’s bioavailability. Objectives: This study aimed to develop alternative carriers for oral delivery of glibenclamide. For this purpose, two biocompatible polymers, poly(e-caprolactone) and poly(but...

متن کاملMicrobial exopolysaccharides-structural subtleties and their consequences
Microbial extracellular heteropolysaccharides are mainly linear molecules to which side chains of varying length and complexity are attached at regular intervals. Examination of 'families' of microbial exopolysacchaiide with closely related structures enables us to determine the effect of minor (or major) changes to structure on the physical properties of these macromolecules. Changes may also ...
