Book Description
Polymeric materials are now playing an increasingly important role in pharmaceuticals, as well as in sensing devices, in situ prostheses and probes, and microparticle diagnostic agents. This new volume consists of twenty-two recent research-based reports on the developments in these areas of pharmaceutical and biomaterials technology. The reports were prepared by top scientists in the field and are based on current research conducted at leading laboratories in the U.S.A., Europe, and Asia. These 22 chapters report the latest information in the application of polymers to biological systems.
Editorial Reviews
Review
“The book contains 22 chapters and covers a very wide range of topics. With a few exceptions, these contributions are from leaders in the field of drug delivery. The ideas and results presented are all extremely creative and interesting. This reviewer would recommend this book as it presents a broad selection of some very interesting directions that polymer drug delivery will be taking in the near future.” – Lisa Brannon-Peppas, PhD, The Department of Biomedical Engineering, The University of Texas at Austin
