The reality behind the rise in importance of these natural materials is that these sources are renewable if grown in a sustainable means and they can tender incessant supply of raw materials. Amongst these natural polymers, polysaccharides are considered as excellent excipients because of its non-toxic, stable, biodegradable properties. Several research innovations have been made on applications of polysaccharides in drug delivery.
- Provides methodologies for the design, development and selection of tailor-made, natural polysaccharides in drug delivery for particular therapeutic applications
- Includes illustrations that demonstrate the mechanism of biological interaction of tailor-made polysaccharides
- Discusses the regulatory aspects and demonstrates the clinical efficacy of tailor-made polysaccharides
