Advances in Natural Gum-Based Nanoformulations for Drug Delivery Applications

Advances in Natural Gum-Based Nanoformulations for Drug Delivery Applications

offers a detailed overview of the specialized drug delivery applications of natural gum nanoformulations.

Divided into 5 parts, this book systematically explores the sustainable sources, types, drug delivery applications, and translational challenges of natural gum-based nanoformulations.

A wide range of natural gums, including plant, marine, animal, and microbe-derived are reviewed, as well as their engineered nanosystems such as nanoparticles, nanogels, nanomicelles, and nanoscaffolds.

Specific drug delivery applications are assessed, providing detailed practical insights for clinical use, including as CNS drugs, anticancer agents, antibiotics, and protein-based therapies.

Importantly, formulation challenges, toxicity, scalability, and regulatory considerations are addressed, providing readers with key translational knowledge.

Advances in Natural Gum-Based Nanoformulations for Drug Delivery Applications is of interest to researchers, academics, and industry professionals in the fields of materials science, materials chemistry, pharmaceutical sciences and pharmacology, with an interest in the development of sustainable biomaterials for drug delivery.
