This adjustability is important for their application in drug delivery system in which the functional parameters need to be precisely controlled. [8] Preliminary studies indicate that antibiotics and anticancer drugs may be encapsulated in electrospun nanofibers by adding the drug into the polymer solution prior to electrospinning.
Nanoparticle drug delivery systems are engineered technologies that use nanoparticles for the targeted delivery and controlled release of therapeutic agents. The modern form of a drug delivery system should minimize side-effects and reduce both dosage and dosage frequency. Recently, nanoparticles have aroused attention due to their potential ...
When the force of attraction between the polymer nanofibers and the collector plate exceed the surface tension of the solution, the nanofibers are released from the solution and deposit onto the collector plate. The deposited fibers form a porous nanofabric that can aid in drug delivery and tissue engineering depending on the type of polymer ...
Nanocarriers are useful in the drug delivery process because they can deliver drugs to site-specific targets, allowing drugs to be delivered in certain organs or cells but not in others. Site-specificity is a major therapeutic benefit as it prevents drugs from being delivered to the wrong places.
Magnetic nanoparticle drug delivery is the use of external or internal magnets to increase the accumulation of therapeutic elements contained in nanoparticles to fight pathologies in specific parts of the body.
Interestingly, electrospinning allows to fabricate nanofibers with advanced architecture [74] that can be used to promote the delivery of multiple drugs at the same time and with different kinetics. [ 75 ] [ 76 ]
THERE ARE A lot of complex scientific topics present in Netflix's 3 Body Problem (presented, believe it or not, in a far more digestible way than the intense concepts presented in author Cixin Liu ...
Melt blowing is a conventional fabrication method of micro- and nanofibers where a polymer melt is extruded through small nozzles surrounded by high speed blowing gas. The randomly deposited fibers form a nonwoven sheet product applicable for filtration, sorbents, apparels and drug delivery systems.
