“…This is the first step for identifying ILs as potential carrier agents in drug delivery devices. Accordingly, a large number of reports comprising ILs as solvents to be employed in the development of promising drug delivery strategies have been published in the literature, namely by IL-based micelles [ 79 , 80 , 81 , 82 ], microemulsions [ 12 , 48 , 83 , 84 , 85 ], nanoparticles [ 86 , 87 , 88 , 89 , 90 ], functionalized silica [ 91 , 92 , 93 , 94 ], and iongels [ 95 , 96 , 97 , 98 ]. These possibilities stand out as the most relevant examples for delivery approaches with ILs, as summarized in Figure 4 .…”
