NTA: Drug Nanocarriers - Part 6 of NTA 1000 Publications Review

The need to characterize different properties of nanomaterials continues to grow rapidly. Since the commercialization of the technique in 2004, Nanoparticle tracking Analysis (NTA) has become increasingly prevalent in a wide variety of different research fields and industrial applications. In this sixth chapter of the Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA) application and usage review, we discuss the reports of the role NTA has played in the design and formulation of drug delivery systems. This includes work on design and formulation of nanocarriers, encapsulation of active ingredients, research into controlled release mechanisms and liposomes.
