Pulmonary Drug Delivery Systems: Material and Technological Advances (EPUB)

Insight into State-of-Art Developments in Pulmonary Drug Delivery Systems

By Piyush Pradeep Mehta, Vividha Dhapte-Pawar

This book provides an in-depth exploration of the latest developments in pulmonary drug delivery systems. It covers a wide range of technologies and materials used to develop effective delivery systems. The chapters sequentially cover the pulmonary relevance of various technologies and materials, carrier synthesis schemes, current technical state-of-art, along with clinical, industrial, and regulatory aspects. Each chapter contains a future perspective section, which systematically reflects current advances in pulmonary drug delivery for better therapeutic outcomes.

The book begins with the elucidation of thin film freezing, supercritical fluid technology, nano-in-micro particles system, crystal-engineered microstructures, and porous particles in pulmonary drug delivery. It then elaborates on various functional excipients such as chitosan, cyclodextrins, and Vitamin E-TPGS to attain local and systemic therapeutic action. The subsequent chapters focus on diverse carrier systems such as hydrogels, quantum dots, metal-organic framework, and prodrug approach. Additionally, exclusive chapters are dedicated to biologicals and numerical simulation in pulmonary therapeutics.

The book offers a practical basis for the audience to understand the design and function of the delivery systems for more effective therapeutic outcomes. It provides a balanced view by considering investigations from various scientific domains and industrial knowledge. This book is a valuable source for readers and researchers who wish to stay updated with the advances in pulmonary drug delivery systems.
