Nanostructured lipid carriers for site-specific drug delivery

Khosa, Archana, Reddi, Satish, Saha, Ranendra N.·2018·Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy

Abstract

Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC), comprises of a blend of solid and liquid lipids which results in a partially crystallized lipid system and imparts many advantages over solid lipid nanoparticles such as enhanced drug loading capacity, drug release modulation flexibility and improved stability. NLC have found numerous applications in both pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry due to ease of preparation, the feasibility of scale-up, biocompatibility, non-toxicity, enhanced targeting efficiency and the possibility of site-specific delivery via various routes of administration. This review highlights the NLC with focus on the structure, the various fabrication techniques used and the characterization techniques which are critical in the development of a suitable and stable formulation. The review also provides an insight into the potential of NLC as site-specific delivery systems and the therapeutic applications explored via various routes of administration.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
