DENDRIMER: THE RECENT DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEM
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Dendrimers are a new class of polymeric materials. They are highly branched, monodisperse macromolecules (meaning of a consistent size & form). The structure of these materials has a great impact on their physical and chemical properties. As a result of their unique behavior dendrimers are suitable for a wide range of biomedical and industrial applications. They possess empty internal cavities & many functional end groups which are responsible for high solubility & reactivity. They are produced in an interactive sequence of reaction steps, in which each additional interaction leads to a higher generation dendrimer.
