Abstract:The progress in nanoscience and advances in the fabrication,
characterization, and modification of materials at the nanoscale have paved the way for
the production and use of nanoparticles with different properties. Today, the chemical
agents used in many therapies cannot achieve the desired effectiveness due to dose-dependent toxicity, low solubility and bioavailability, damage to non-target organs and
tissues due to non-specificity, and side effects. Nanoparticle systems produced in
different forms and compo… Show more
