A Novel Revolutionary Approach of a Synthesis and Application of Targeted Nanosponge Drug Delivery
Author(s): Parag Raj Behura* and Vamshi Krishna T
The novel and development of nanotechnology have brought a term targeted drug delivery system. Targeting a
molecule to a specific site has brought a certain pharmacological action. Nanosponge is a part of nanotechnology
which is both hydrophilic and lipophilic in nature. They are colloidal carriers which improve the aqueous solubility
of the poorly soluble drug by enhancing and improving the physical and chemical stability and improving the
permeability and bioavailability in the body tissues. Nanosponge are tiny sponges which are in the size of colloidal
sizes and nanosized cavity. There general application can be seen in oral administration, parenteral administration,
topical administration and available in the form of hydrogel. The current review discussion various methods of
synthesis and application of nanosponges... View More»
