It contains eleven articles, including nine original research papers and two reviews. The papers cover various topics related to the use of biopolymers (polysaccharides such as cellulose and its derivatives, starch and its derivatives, chitosan and its derivatives, hyaluronan, sodium alginate, agarose, arabinoxylan, heparin, cyclodextrin, peptides and proteins, and synthetic biopolymers) for delivery of various drugs and therapeutic nucleic acids. The biomaterials studied include polymer conjugates, nano- and submicroparticles, gels, films, and implants for drug administration via intravascular, intravitreal, buccal, topical, and implantation routes.ChemistrybicsscResearch and information: generalbicsscadditive manufacturinganti-inflammatory activityantibacterial dressingantibioticsantimicrobial activityantimicrobial propertiesarabinoxylanbuccal drug deliverycellulosecellulose cryogelcoatingcolistincomposite materialscontrolled drug deliverycore-shell structurescrosslinking densitycurcumincyclodextrindegradationdexamethasonediethylaminoethyl chitosanDNA deliverydrug deliverydrug delivery systemdrug delivery systemsenrichedESKAPE pathogensfreeze-dryinggamma raysgene therapygraftingheparinhyaluronic acidhybrid nanoparticleshydrogelhydrogel propertiesintegrinsintravitreal delivery systemsmethyl methacrylateN-vinylimidazolen/ananoparticle complexosseointegrationosteoblast differentiationpeptide-based carrierspeptidespH-responsivenesspolycondensationpolyelectrolyte complexespolymer concentrationpolymyxinpolypropylenepolysaccharidespreparationregenerative medicinereleasesodium alginatesuccinyl chitosanthymidine kinaseTi6Al4Vtinzaparintissue engineeringuterine fibroidsvancomycinwound healingWPI fibrilsChemistryResearch and information: generalBOOK9911053034703321Biopolymers in Drug and Gene Delivery Systems4526207UNINA
