Pharmaceutical applications of dendrimers: promising nanocarriers for drug delivery.

Dendrimers are new artificial macromolecules which have the structure like a tree. They are hyperbranched and monodisperse three-dimensional molecules with defined molecular weights, large numbers of functional groups on the surface and well-established host-guest entrapment properties. Recently, dendrimers have successfully proved themselves as promising nanocarriers for drug delivery because ...

Current Approaches and Pharmaceutical Applications of Colloidosome Drug Delivery Systems

Recently a number of lipid based systems like lipospheres, liposomes, niosomes, ethosomes, and transferosomes have been developed. The purpose of this review article on colloidosome drug delivery was to compile the focus on the types, properties, fabrication techniques, characterization and stability of colloidosomes. This system also solves the problem of insolubility, instability, rapid degra...
