Abstract:Micelles have for decades been researched as carriers of drug delivery. Through the enhanced permeability and retention effect, their use can potentially result in high drug accumulation at the target site. Although micelles allow for a great depth of tissue penetration for the delivery of targeted drugs, they typically disintegrate into the body easily. Therefore, a challenge is continuous drug delivery from micellar nanocarriers. This article summarizes different main techniques and underlying concepts for t… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
