Abstract

In the last decade, using nanotechnology in medicine has had significant effects in improving healthcare. Decreasing the size of particles has a lot of advantages, such as enhanced solubility, efficacy, and biocompatibility. Controlling the release profile, preparing multidrug-loaded particles with different release profiles, increasing blood circulation half-life of drug-loaded particles, and preventing phagocytosis, are some of the advantages of fabricating polymeric fine particles. Electrospraying ...
