Barnes & Noble Advances Pharmaceutical Technology for Drug Delivery Systems (PTDDS): Volume 2: Recent Progress Biomedical Applications at Hamilton Place in Chattanooga, TN
In this new two-volume set, leading scientists focus on the recent progress in pharmaceutical technology for drug delivery systems and new drug targeting strategies. Each chapter covers a particular aspect of these delivery systems and relate the importance, fabrication technology, characterization, evaluation, therapeutic applications, and future perspectives by pharmaceutical scientists.Volume 2: Recent Progress in Biomedical Applications covers the role of niosomes as a convenient, cheap, and stable means of delivery of therapeutics in biomedical applications. It also looks at the uses of nanotechnology for drug delivery, including nanoencapsulation of bioactive compounds, introduction of genes in biological systems via nanotechnology-based techniques, and nanotechnology-based polymeric scaffolds in tissue engineering. Other technologies discussed include electrospun technology and 3D printing technologies in fabricating drug delivery systems. The book also dedicates a chapter to the use of natural biocarriers for brain targeting, a hereto difficult area for drug delivery. A graphene-based system for drug delivery is also discussed, as are bio-ceramics systems. An overview of the broad future of nanofibers in the sector of biomedical application is also included.Volume 1: Recent Progress in Modern Drug Targeting Strategies covers a broad range of developments in drug delivery systems and drug targeting strategies. It examines the solid oral drug delivery system, the most common mode of drug delivery, and details its challenges and the latest developments in that area. It also discusses the production, physico-chemical properties, and formulations of microcarriers, nanotechnology, and liposomes as drug carrier systems. The volume covers transdermal drug delivery systems, the use of hydrogels in drug carrier systems, the use of polymeric micelle systems for drug delivery and biomedical applications, and more.The two volumes together provide a comprehensive review of the advanced research and development in drug delivery systems and drug targeting strategies technology.
