chitosan with excellent biodegradable and biocompatible characteristics has received attention as an oral drug delivery vehicle for controlled-release formulations. in this study an enteric-coated capsule containing theophylline-chitosan beads based on 23 factorial designs was prepared as a colon drug delivery system. the theophylline-chitosan gel beads were formulated by adding the drug-contai...

The present work was aimed to develop and characterize rosuvastatin loaded self emulsifying drug delivery system for the effective management of hypolipidemia (RSEDDS) for improving bioavailability, to enhance solubility, to prolong residence time and to provide sufficient amount of drug to a target site in a sustained release manner. Self-emulsifying drug delivery system was prepared by simple...

Targeted drug delivery or site-specific drug delivery system has the potential to increase local drug concentrations and thereby increase the effectiveness of the medicines with fewer side effects. Liver diseases especially liver cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers, with a high mortality. Due to high toxicity and poor specificity of the chemotherapeutic agents the present method of trea...

context biocompatible polymers are potentially effective for dental infections as delivery carriers of disinfectants or antibiotics into the root canal system (rcs). this study aimed to review polymeric microspheres enabling a controlled release of endodontic medicaments. evidence acquisition a literature search was carried out in the pubmed database (may 2013) using the following keywords: “po...

Ultrasound has received less attention than other imaging modalities for molecular imaging, but has a number of potential advantages. It is cheap, widely available and portable. Using Doppler methods, flow information can be obtained easily and non-invasively. It is arguably the most physiological modality, able to image structure and function with less sedation than other modalities. This mean...

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...
