Nanoparticles are molecules that range in size from 10-1000 nm and can be used as a targeted drug delivery system. Nanoparticles can be used in Nanomedicine to make highly precise Nano-delivery systems for drugs.
Nanomedicine benefits in treating chronic human diseases by site-specific, and target-oriented delivery of precise medicines to diseased tissue.
Nanoparticles for drug delivery systems come in many different shapes, forms, and materials. In general, all nanopartical drug delivery systems have at least 3 components: A biodegradable polymeric base, a molecular drug payload, and a targeting apparatus
Nano-Delivery
Traditional Delivery
Nanoparticle drug delivery systems are already in use, but still mostly uncommon. This is largely due to the high research costs associated with their development. The benefits far outweigh the drawbacks, therefore nanomedicine must be researched and implemented further in order to increase our understanding and improve techniques in nano-delivery. This will improve the effectivity of treatments, as well as reduce the required dosages thereby increasing the availability of drugs.
