Niosomes as drug targeting systems

Niosomes as Carrier in Dermal Drug Delivery

Niosomes – Vesicular Drug Delivery System

At present days drugs are formulated by using different novel drug delivery system (NDDS) which are used for targeting drugs to different organ systems and for controlled /sustained release of drug from the dosage forms. The NDDS can be used to overcome many disadvantages of conventional dosage forms like poor bioavailability, first pass effect, systemic toxicity, degradation of drug in stomach...

An Overview on Niosomes as Efficient Drug Carriers

Over the past years the treatments of disease have undergone a revolutionary change. With the advancement of pharmaceutical science not only novel drug delivery system have been developed but also emphasis has been laid to deliver the active constituent to the diseased site.The basic component of such a system is a suitable carrier that protects the active medicament from degradation or clearan...

Niosomes: an Excellent Tool for Drug Delivery

Design and development of novel drug delivery system (NDDS) has two prerequisites. First, it should deliver the drug in accordance with a predetermined rate and second it should release therapeutically effective amount of drug at the site of action. Conventional dosage forms are unable to meet these requisites. Niosomes are essentially non-ionic surfactant-based multilamellar or unilamellar ves...

Iron oxide-doped niosomes as drug carriers for magnetically targeted drug delivery

Magnetism has wide applications in various fields, such as diagnostics, drug targeting, molecular biology, cell isolation, cell purification, hyperthermia, and radioimmunoassay. In this study, we synthesized niosomes doped with iron oxide nanoparticles and a fluorophore for potential applications in magnetically targeted drug delivery. Release kinetics of the fluorophore and cytotoxicity were a...
