Nanogels for pharmaceutical and biomedical applications and their fabrication using 3D printing technologies [PDF]
Nanogels are hydrogels formed by connecting nanoscopic micelles dispersed in an aqueous medium, which give an opportunity for incorporating hydrophilic payloads to the exterior of the micellar networks and hydrophobic payloads in the core of the micelles.
