Researchers develop a novel activation imaging technique that enables real-time visualization of gold nanoparticles in the body without the use of external tracers. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are tiny ...

A team of researchers has created an innovative drug delivery system with outstanding potential to improve drug development. A team of University of Melbourne researchers from the Caruso ...

Gastroretentive drug delivery systems (GRDDS) represent a sophisticated approach to oral medication by extending the retention time of dosage forms in the stomach. This increased residence time can ...

Scientists at Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University (XJTLU) and Nanjing University in China have developed a new drug delivery system that could improve how treatments of cancers and other diseases are ...

In 1998 I was exposed to the term “disruptive innovation” for the first time. I read a wonderful book, “The Innovator’s Dilemma” by Clayton Christensen, where I learned the difference between ...

Drug delivery utilizes various methods and/or carriers to transport therapeutic agents to the tissue, organ, cell, or subcellular organ of interest for release and absorption. Some of the primary ...
