Hydrogels in drug delivery: progress and challenges

TL;DR: Recent progress in overcoming challenges with regards to effectively delivering hydrogels inside the body without implantation, prolonging the release kinetics of drugs fromhydrogels, and expanding the nature of drugs which can be delivered using hydrogel-based approaches is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Review of Hydrogels and Aerogels Containing Nanocellulose

TL;DR: A review of the field of hydrogels and aerogels incorporating nanocelluloses can be found in this paper, where over 200 references are summarized in comprehensive tables and a discussion of the challenges and benefits of using CNCs and CNFs as reinforcing agents in conventional plastics is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preparation of monodisperse biodegradable polymer microparticles using a microfluidic flow-focusing device for controlled drug delivery.

TL;DR: The fabrication of monodisperse, drug-loaded microparticles from biodegradable polymers using the microfluidic flow-focusing (FF) devices and the drug-delivery properties of those particles and the release of the drug is slower than that from conventional methods but a broader distribution of sizes is shown.
Journal ArticleDOI

Highly pH and temperature responsive microgels functionalized with vinylacetic acid

TL;DR: In this paper, temperature-responsive microgels based on poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and functionalized with vinylacetic acid (VAA) are observed to exhibit a host of novel swelling responses compared with equally functionalized micro gels prepared using the conventional acrylic acid (AA) and methacrylic acid (MAA) comonomers.
