About This Book

Engineering Drug Delivery Systems is an essential resource on a variety of biomaterials engineering approaches for creating drug delivery systems that have market and therapeutic potential. The book comprehensively discusses recent advances in the fields of biomaterials and biomedical sciences in relation to drug delivery. Chapters provide a detailed introduction to various engineering approaches in designing drug delivery systems, delve into the engineering of body functions, cover the selection, design and evaluation of biomaterials, and discuss the engineering of colloids as drug carriers. The book's final chapters address the engineering of implantable drug delivery systems and advances in drug delivery technology.

This book is an invaluable resource for drug delivery, materials scientists and bioengineers within the pharmaceutical industry.

  • Examines the properties and synthesis of biomaterials for successful drug delivery
  • Discusses the important connection between drug delivery and tissue engineering
  • Includes techniques and approaches applicable to a wide range of users
  • Reviews innovative technologies in drug delivery systems such as 3-D printed devices for drug delivery
