This Review is an overview of the unique characteristics of cyclodextrin in forming an
inclusion complex via host–guest noncovalent interactions. The modification of cyclodextrin …

The scientific explorations of nanoparticles for their inherent therapeutic potencies as
antimicrobial and antiviral agents due to increasing incidences of antibiotic resistance have …

Infectious diseases account for more than 20% of global mortality and viruses are
responsible for about one-third of these deaths. Highly infectious viral diseases such as …

Solid lipid nanopaticles were developed in early 1990s as an alternative to other traditional
colloidal carriers like liposomes, polymeric nanoparticles and emulsions as they have …

Introduction: Viral infections represent a public health problem and one of the leading
causes of global mortality. Nanomedicine strategies can be considered a powerful tool to …

Background: Herpes Simplex (HSV) viruses are widely spread, highly contagious human
pathogens. The statistics indicate that 50-90% of adults worldwide are seropositive for these …

Cyclodextrin-based nanosponges (NS) are solid nanoparticles, obtained from the cross-
linking of cyclodextrins that have been proposed as delivery systems for many types of …

Nanomedicine opens new therapeutic avenues for attacking viral diseases and for
improving treatment success rates. Nanoparticulate-based systems might change the …

A handful of singular structures and laws can be observed in nature. They are not always
evident but, once discovered, it seems obvious how to take advantage of them. In chemistry …

Today, viruses penetrate cells very intelligently with abilities of replicating and disabling the
host's defense mechanisms. The viruses are resistant to conventional treatments mainly due …
