Micelles have been studied as drug delivery carriers for decades. Their use can potentially
result in high drug accumulation at the target site through the enhanced permeability and …

This review focuses on the recent development and various strategies in the preparation,
microstructure, and magnetic properties of bare and surface functionalized iron oxide …

Responsive polymer systems have the ability to change properties or behavior in response
to external stimuli. The properties of responsive polymer systems can be fine‐tuned by …

The field of nanomedicines has expanded significantly in recent years in the breadth of
compounds under development as well as in the types of technology that are being applied …

Dendrimers are hyper-branched organic compounds characterized via a three-dimensional
structure possessing functional groups on the surface. These terminals groups can be …

Conventional micellar carriers disassemble into free surfactants when diluted at
concentrations below the critical micelle concentration (CMC). This limits the bioavailability …

Design and synthesis of efficient drug delivery systems are of vital importance for medicine
and healthcare. Materials innovation and nanotechnology have synergistically fueled the …

Abstract pH-responsive polymers contain ionic functional groups as pendants in their
structure. The total number of charged groups on polymer chains determines the overall …

Polymer-based drug delivery depots have been investigated over the last several decades
as a means to improve upon the lack of tumor targeting and severe systemic morbidities …

Conducting polymers (CPs) have drawn considerable attention because of their economical
importance, good environmental stability and electrical conductivity as well as due to their …
