Academic Press Lipids in Pulmonary Drug Delivery

Lipid in Pulmonary Drug Delivery explores the most recent advancements, strategies, and state-of-the-art technological progress in the development of lipid-based nanocarriers for pulmonary administration. This book presents wide coverage of the various lipid-based nano-drug carriers such as liposomes, solid lipid nanoparticles, and nanoemulsions intended for the administration of drugs through the pulmonary route to treat different conditions. It also includes a general description of the formulation aspects of various lipid-based drug delivery vehicles, post-production processing, biofate aspects with special emphasis on the pulmonary microenvironment. The authors include an update on the clinical status of the potential lipid nanocarriers used for effective management of the pulmonary related diseases. Written in a technical way covering the latest advancements in lipid-based drug delivery for pulmonary administration, Lipid & Pulmonary Drug Delivery: Lipid-Based Nanomedicines for Pulmonary Drug Delivery is a useful reference for researchers, scientists, graduate, and postgraduate students working or planning on starting research in the field of lipid-based nano-drug pulmonary delivery platforms. Presents unique and comprehensive information on lipid-based nanomedicines for pulmonary drug delivery Provide insights into the biological fate and interplay of nanoparticles with the environment of the pulmonary system Acts as a guide for the future applications of lipid-based nanomedicine in the clinical setting for the precise management of pulmonary diseases
