Biocompatible microemulsion systems for drug encapsulation and delivery
نویسنده
چکیده
This review of biocompatible lipophilic drug encapsulating and delivery systems entails the basics of colloidal drug delivery with special reference to oil-in-water microemulsion. The behaviour of the biocompatible systems, their formulation and ingredients, physicochemical properties, applications through different routes, advantages and restrictions therein have been presented. In vitro and in vivo biological studies using typical formulations in different laboratories have been taken into account to show their current potential and future prospects.
