After a brief overview of the classification, preparation, and characterization of carbon nanotubes, it focuses on their use in targeted drug delivery. It presents CNTs for brain targeting, ocular targeting, cancer targeting, and lymphatic targeting, as well as antibody therapy. The book also includes chapters on carbon nanotubes for controlled drug delivery, transdermal drug delivery, solubility enhancement, vaccine delivery, gene delivery, and as quantum dots. Last but not least, it addresses the absorption and transportation of CNTs, toxicity and regulatory considerations, as well as clinical trials and the market status of CNTs. .SpringerBriefs in Applied Sciences and Technology,2191-530XNanotechnologyPharmaceutical technologyPharmacyNanotechnologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z14000Pharmaceutical Sciences/Technologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B21010Nanotechnology and Microengineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T18000Drug Safety and Pharmacovigilancehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H69010Nanotechnology.Pharmaceutical technology.Pharmacy.Nanotechnology.Pharmaceutical Sciences/Technology.Nanotechnology and Microengineering.Drug Safety and Pharmacovigilance.620.115Hasnain Md Saquibauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut770182Nayak Amit Kumarauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910357827303321Carbon Nanotubes for Targeted Drug Delivery2543129UNINA
