Stimuli Responsive Drug Delivery Systems: From Introduction to Application

Abstract

This book offers a convincing approach to understanding the basic principles of drug delivery process, their mathematical modeling, different types of drug delivery systems, various polymer systems responsive to stimuli such as swelling, pH, temperature, electric and magnetic fields, chemical agents, and more. The material covered in this book provides a wide spectrum of information (academic, research, and professional) for the biomedical, pharmaceutical and polymer chemistry communities. The book also presents the commercial scenario of drug delivery systems and highlights upcoming challenges and existing future prospects of this field.
