Drug Targeting and Encapsulation
نویسنده
چکیده
1 In the past few years, considerable advances of basic and application researches have taken place in the field of pharmaceutics. The newly recognized research thrust on nanoand microencapsulation is expected to have a revolutionary impact on the human health. To do this, considerable interest has been devoted towards the design of new drug delivery systems with the aim to specifically target the drug, such that the drug is released at a controlled rate and at the desired time.

Erythrocytes are potential biocompatible carriers for different drugs, peptide molecules and different enzymes. Now a day the method that is used for encapsulation of pharmaceuticals into the erythrocytes mainly based on the hypo-osmotic dialysis. Encapsulation of these drugs or enzymes or peptides into erythrocytes significantly changes the pharmacokinetic properties of drugs in both animals a...
متن کاملDevelopment of pH Sensitive Nanoparticles for Intestinal Drug Delivery Using Chemically Modified Guar Gum Co-Polymer
The aim of the research work was to chemically modify guar gum(GG) as a pH sensitive co-polymer and formulating intestinal targeting ESO nanoparticles (NPs) using the synthesized co-polymer. Poly acrylamide-grafted-guar gum (PAAm-g-GG) co-polymer was synthesized by free radical polymerization. Chemical modification of PAAm-g-GG by alkaline hydrolysis results in formation of a pH-sensitive co-po...
