Therapies directed toward the central nervous system remain difficult to translate into
improved clinical outcomes. This is largely due to the blood–brain barrier (BBB), arguably …

Nanotechnology refers to the control, manipulation, study and manufacture of structures and
devices at the nanometer size range. The small size, customized surface, improved solubility …

Finally, we have addressed some relevant findings on the importance of having well-defined
synthetic strategies developed for the generation of MNPs, with a focus on particle formation …

The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a highly regulated and efficient barrier that provides a
sanctuary to the brain. It is designed to regulate brain homeostasis and to permit selective …

Nanotechnology could be defined as the technology that has allowed for the control,
manipulation, study, and manufacture of structures and devices in the “nanometer” size …

For the past few decades, there has been a considerable research interest in the area of
drug delivery using particulate delivery systems as carriers for small and large molecules …

Aliphatic polyesters prepared by ring-opening polymerization of lactones are now used
worldwide as bioresorbabale devices in surgery (orthopaedic devices, sutures, stents, tissue …

Amphiphilic block copolymers are able to form a range of different nanoparticulate
structures. These include micelles, nanospheres, nanocapsules, and polymersomes. This …

The nanoprecipitation technique for preparation of nanoparticles suffers the drawback of
poor incorporation of water soluble drugs. The aim of this study was therefore to assess …

The aim of this study was to assess the potential of nanoparticles to improve the
pharmacokinetics of curcumin, with a primary goal of enhancing its bioavailability. Polylactic …
