Development of functional micelles from biodegradable amphiphilic block copolymers for drug delivery and tumour therapy

Drug delivery systems in the size range of ~ 10-250 nm are enabling tools for site-specific targeting and controlled release applications. To take advantage of these capabilities, various nanocarriers e.g., micelles, dendrimers, liposomes, nanoparticles, nanocapsules, nanotubes, and nanogels, have b...
