Dual role of nanoparticles as drug carrier and drug [PDF]
Cancer Nanotechnology, 2011 The conventional chemotherapeutic agents used in the treatment of human malignancies are directed nonspecifically against both malignant and nonmalignant cells, often limiting their efficacy with having serious side effects. Recent development of drug delivery vehicles has opened up the possibility of targeted drug delivery systems with the potential ...

Mixing time effects on the dispersion performance of adhesive mixtures for inhalation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 This paper deals with the effects of mixing time on the homogeneity and dispersion performance of adhesive mixtures for inhalation. Interactions between these effects and the carrier size fraction, the type of drug and the inhalation flow rate were ...

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021 The accumulation of nanotechnology-based drugs has been realized in various ways. However, the concentration of drugs encapsulated by nanomaterials is not equal to the concentration of effective drugs; often, the drugs become effective only when they are

Aptamers as Both Drugs and Drug-Carriers [PDF]
BioMed Research International, 2014 Aptamers are short nucleic acid oligos. They may serve as both drugs and drug-carriers. Their use as diagnostic tools is also evident. They can be generated using various experimental, theoretical, and computational techniques. The systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment which uses iterative screening of nucleic acid libraries is a ...

Preparation and use of nanogels as carriers of drugs [PDF]
Drug Delivery, 2021 Nanogels have high tunability and stability while being able to sense and respond to external stimuli by showing changes in the gel volume, water content, colloidal stability, mechanical strength, and other physical/chemical properties. In this article, advances in the preparation of nanogels will be reviewed.
