Oral delivery is the most widely used form of drug administration due to ease of ingestion, cost effectiveness, and versatility, by allowing for the accommodation of different types of drugs, having the highest patient compliance. In this book, a comprehensive overview of the most promising and up-to-date engineered and surface functionalized drug carrier systems, as well as opportunities for the development of novel and robust delivery platforms for oral drug administration are discussed. The relevance of controlling the physicochemical properties of the developed particle formulations, from size and shape to drug release profile are broadly reviewed. Advances in both \u003ci\u003ein vitro \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003ein vivo \u003c\/i\u003escenarios are discussed, focusing on the possibilities to study the biological-material interface. The industrial perspective on the production of nanotechnology-based oral drug delivery systems is also covered. \u003ci\u003eNanotechnology for Oral Drug Delivery: From Concept to Applications \u003c\/i\u003eis essential reading for researchers, professors, advanced students and industry professionals working in the development, manufacturing and\/or commercialization of nanotechnology-based systems for oral drug delivery, targeted drug delivery, controlled drug release, materials science and biomaterials, \u003ci\u003ein vitro \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003ein vivo \u003c\/i\u003etesting of potential oral drug delivery technologies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e João Pedro Martins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0128180382\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780128180389\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Academic Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/27\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 534\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"João Pedro Martins","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48112847519999,"sku":"9780128180389","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8eb6ed5e-50a1-4fce-bc60-3b3f2701bc78.jpg?v=1769611343","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/nanotechnology-for-oral-drug-delivery-jozoo-pedro-martins-9780128180389","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
