Research in the realm of nanotechnology-facilitated drug delivery has witnessed spectacular advancements in the recent years owing to their unlimited potential in overcoming the inadequacies of conventional drugs and drug delivery systems. Focused on nanostructures, this volume is a testament to the current state-of-the-art techniques for development of drug delivery systems to treat chronic and life-threatening diseases requiring administration of frequent and/or high dose of drugs. With contributions from experts across the world in the field of nanotechnology, the book imbibes recent trends and improvements in drug delivery, achieved using nanostructures. The book brings forth multi-dimensional aspects, challenges and most recent advances in utilizing the nanostructures for applications in drug delivery. The book spans to cover the entire scenario of carriers, right from their designing using Qb D to their applications in fields, as diverse as dermal and ocular delivery, for diseases as varied as cancer and tuberculosis, and with features as specific as targetibility and suitability for gene therapy. Several nanostructured drug carriers including nanoparticles (both organic and inorganic), nanosuspensions, nanoemulsions, liposomes, nanomicelles, dendrimers, niosomes, cubosomes, organogels, nanogels, carbon nanotubes and aquasomes, have been brought forward in the discussion. Through this book, the editors and authors have made the sincerest efforts to bridge the gap between nanotechnology and medicine, and integrate a broad base of knowledge from a wide spectrum of areas to present the basic fundamentals and on newer applications of nanostructured products in medicine.
