It explores the tests carried out to evaluate their pharmacological properties, in addition to investigating the recent results of clinical tests carried out for some nanocarriers. This book also addresses the most recent advances in nanocarriers and their diverse applications in modern medicine for the treatment of diseases and diagnostics. Nanocarriers play an important role in improving the treatment of diseases and diagnostic imaging as they can deliver medicines to specific locations for their actions and allow a prolonged release of the active compounds. This creates a need for researchers in academia and industry to obtain up-to-date knowledge about nanocarrier production and its pharmacological and biotechnological applications. This book contributes to this by providing the most recent and relevant topics on nanocarriers and by addressing pharmacological aspects for the treatment of various diseases, in addition to assessing the use for clinical diagnostics. So, it is a useful resource for students and researchers in the field of nanocarriers.
- Discusses nanocarriers manufacture and nanoencapsulation process of molecules
- Describes how nanocarriers reach the specific site of action and then release the drug
- Explores the latest advances in different types of nanocarriers
