Nanobiotechnology, involving biological systems manufactured at the molecular level, is a multidisciplinary field that has fostered the development of nanoscaled pharmaceutical delivery devices. Micelles, liposomes, solid lipid nanoparticles, polymeric nanoparticles, functionalized nanoparticles, nanocrystals, cyclodextrins, dendrimers, nanotubes and metallic nanoparticles have been used as str...

after the boom of pharmacological research during the 1950s, mainly as a result of the screening technique, the identification of active molecules, their reshaping by means of pharmaco-chemical drug design, and the creation of extremely efficacious and successful medicines, the pharmaceutical world sought a new source of inspiration. such biota as the tropical forest, a quantity of plants credi...

Pharmaceutical materials science addresses the physical solid-state properties of pharmaceutical products, such as solubility and stability of crystal structures. Especially the different properties of different polymorphs, salts and hydrates of an Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) are of interest, although more recently the amorphous state has also received considerable attention. Calcula...
