Advanced Drug Delivery Systems

Submitted by sush on Tue, 03/09/2010 - 16:56

Microspheres are colloidal particles whose size ranges from 1 to 1000 nm.The drug will be either dispersed or dissolved in the empty particles. The micro particulate drug delivery systems are considered and accepted as a reliable means to deliver the drug to the target site.The major applications include Controlled release peptide formulations, Intracellular Delivery, Drug delivery to tissue, treatment of macrophage associated diseases.

The present presentation is elaborating all necessary data like

Definition- Microspheres.
Rationale for drug encapsulation into micro particles.
Loading of drug
Mechanism of Drug release.
Methods of preparation of microspheres.
Characterization of Microspheres.
Applications.
Recent advances.
Future prospective.

Key words: Microspheres, Methods of preparation, Characterization, Applications

* Micro spheres have immense potential in controlled release. * Micro spheres are very much used in targeting of drugs to a particular organ or a specific part of the organ. * Micro spheres are also used in the treatment of macrophage associated diseases. * Recent studies on the uptake of micro spheres by payer's patches have opened up the possibility of delivering many vaccines by the oral route. * Control rate of release of core material, by rupture of polymer wall.
