Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA)
Nanoparticles for Drug Delivery is a comprehensive guide to PLGA
nanoparticles for targeting various diseases, covering principles,
formation, characterization, applications, regulations and the latest
advances. Sections introduce the fundamental aspects of PLGA
nanoparticles for drug delivery, including properties, preparation
methods, characterization, drug loading methods, and drug release
mechanisms, along with a focus on applications. Application of PLGA
nanoparticles for the treatment of cancer, inflammatory, cerebral,
cardiovascular, and infectious diseases, as well as in regenerative
medicine, photodynamic and photothermal therapy, and gene therapy, are
all explained in detail.
The final
chapters explore recent advances and regulatory aspects. This book is a
valuable resource for researchers and advanced students across
nanomedicine, polymer science, bio-based materials, chemistry,
biomedicine, biotechnology, and materials engineering, as well as for
industrial scientists and R&D professionals with an interest in
nanoparticles for drug delivery, pharmaceutical formulations and
regulations, and development of innovative biodegradable materials.
