Various Types of Nanocarriers in Drug Delivery

In recent decades, significant research at the nano-technology field cause effective outcomes on different subfields and even daily life; since we can name the drug delivery field as a direct outcome of these recent achievements. Nanomaterials have many biological and medicinal applications in various fields such as drug delivery, tissue engineering, gene therapy, molecular imaging, etc. It is now possible to produce drug nanocarriers that can be utilized in a variety of innovative ways. Biodegradable polymeric nanoparticles, nanocapsules, nanospheres, fullerenes, nanotubes, nanorods, nanofibers, dendrimers, liposomes, liposphers, and micelles are some examples of drug delivery systems that are explained in this research.
