Opis

This work discusses physical, chemical, and biological approaches to drug targeting technology, focusing on oral, dispersed system, topical, dermal, transdermal, and inhalation delivery, and the development of original formulations that are matched by innovative device design. It considers the efforts in biotechnology and molecular biology to produce intelligent drug delivery devices by exploiting biological pathways.
