Main description:

Delivery of Drugs: Expectations and Realities of Multifunctional Drug Delivery Systems, Volume Two examines the formulation of micro-nanosized drug delivery systems and recaps opportunities for using physical methods to improve efficacy via mechano-, electroporation. The book highlights innovative delivery methods like PIPAC, including discussions on the regulatory aspects of complex injectables. Written by a diverse range of international researchers from industry and academia, the chapters examine specific aspects of characterization and manufacturing for pharmaceutical applications as well as regulatory and policy aspects.

This book connects formulation scientists, regulatory experts, engineers, clinical experts and regulatory stakeholders. This level of discussion makes it a valuable reference resource for researchers in both academia and the pharmaceutical industry who want to learn more about the status of drug delivery systems.
