Polymeric Nanosystems: Theranostic
Nanosystems, Volume One examines the applications of nanotherapeutic
systems and nanodiagnostics in relation to polymeric nanosystems. In the
last decade, numerous biopolymers have been utilized to prepare
polymeric nanosystems for therapeutic applications. These biopolymers
include polylactic acid, polylactide-co-glycolide, polycaprolactone,
acrylic polymers, cellulose and cellulose derivatives, alginates,
chitosan, gellan gum, gelatin, albumin, chontroitin sulfate, hyaluronic
acid, guar gum, gum Arabic, gum tragacanth, xanthan gum, and starches.
Besides these biopolymers, grafted polymers are also being used as
advanced polymeric materials to prepare many theranostic nanocarriers
and nanoformulations. This book explores the array of polymeric
nanosystems to understand therapeutic potentials.
It will be useful
to pharmaceutical scientists, including industrial pharmacists and
analytical scientists, health care professionals, and regulatory
scientists actively involved in the pharmaceutical product and process
development of tailor-made polysaccharides in drug delivery
applications.
