Introduction The development of novel drug carriers is invaluable to maximize therapeutic efficiency and improve specificity. Dioctadecyl-dimethylammonium bromide (DODAB): monoolein (MO) (1:2) liposomes exhibit non-lamellar phases in their core that improve the encapsulation ability of both hydrophobic and hydrophilic molecules. This study explores the use of this nanosystem for the therapeutic delivery of cyto Read More

For many years, inulin has been a versatile oligosaccharide that is mainly utilized in food. When compared to other biodegradable polysaccharides, inulin's unique and flexible structure, protective/stabilizing properties, along with organ-targeting abilities make it an ideal drug delivery vehicle. Inulin has drawn a lot of attention as a promising multifunctional natural biopolymer with a wide range of uses in drug delivery, prebiotic Read More

Background Berberine is an isoquinoline alkaloid with potent anti-inflammatory effects. However, its therapeutic efficacy is often restricted by its poor solubility, absorption, and permeability, especially in topical applications. Transferosomes are elastic vesicular carriers with high skin permeability values and retention, making them suitable for encapsulating hydrophilic and lipophilic actives. Objective The objective of t Read More

3D Printing, sometimes referred to as additive manufacturing, has made the concept of personalized medicine a reality. The primary objective of 3D and 4D printing is to produce intricate, customized pharmaceuticals at a reasonable cost. With improvements in materials, resolution, and speed, 3D printing technology is quickly developing. It includes faster construction, cost efficiency through reduced waste, design flexibili Read More
