| Description | Nanoparticles are bio-nanomaterials with specific physicochemical properties. Therapeutic drugs are formulated in nanoparticles to enhance their pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties and to improve targeted delivery to the relevant tissue. There are several types of nanoparticles, including liposomes, polymeric nanoparticles, dendrimers, ceramic nanoparticles, carbon nanomaterials, and magnetic nanoparticles. After synthesis, nanoparticles are evaluated for their surface charge, particle size and shape, efficiency, loading capacity, and stability. Nanoparticle 2formulated drugs have provided massive advantages in personalized medicine for the treatment of diseases including the molecular targeting of cancer. In this chapter, we review some kinds of nanoparticle formulations, their characterization, advantages, limitations, and potential use in nanomedicine. Book Name: Nanoparticle Drug Delivery Systems for Cancer Treatment |
