The ability to deliver therapeutic agents to a patient in a pulsatile or staggered release profi le has been a major goal in drug delivery research recently. This review will cover methods that have been developed to control drug delivery profi le with different polymeric systems. Externally and internally controlled systems will be considered, including a range of technologies like preprogramm...

PEGylated polypropyleneimine (PPI) dendritic scaffold was used for the delivery of an anti-leukemic drug, Imatinib. The current study evolves and emerges the use PEGylated PPI dendritic scaffold for the delivery of this drug. In this Imatinib was synthesized and loaded with PEGylated PPI dendritic scaffold. Parameters such as FT-IR, NMR, SEM, drug release, DSC and hemolytictoxicity are required...

the goal of this research is to determine the feasibility of loading rifampin into mesoporous silica nanoparticles. rifampin was selected as a model lipophilic molecule since it is a well-documented and much used anti tuberculosis drug. the mesoporous silica nanoparticles were prepared by using tetraethyl ortho silicate and cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (as surfactant); the prepared nanoparti...

Drug actions can be improved by developing new drug delivery systems, such as the mucoadhesive system. These systems remain in close contact with the absorption tissue, the mucous membrane, releasing the drug at the action site leading to a bioavailability increase and both local and systemic effects. Mucoadhesion is currently explained by six theories: electronic, adsorption, wettability, diff...

A perspective drug delivery systems can be defined as mechanisms to introduce therapeutic agents into the body. Chewing leaves and roots of medical plants and inhalation of soot from the burning of medical substances are examples of drug delivery from the earliest times. However, these primitive approaches of delivering drugs lacked a very basic need in drug delivery; that is, consistency and u...

although the conventional therapies have obviously improved the conditions of patients with cancer, some mechanisms of resistance have led scientists to use alternative agents that can penetrate in most solid tumors. furthermore, the success of cancer therapies depends on limiting the uptake of toxins to normal tissues and their selectivity to malignant cells. the involvement of natural and gen...
